THIS FOR YOU,
MR. OREGON FARMER
Farmers not residing on any
of the roads to be Improved un
der the road bonding bill should
not for that reason oppose the
road bond measure. With the
approval by the voters of the
bond issue, every such larmer
will derive a two-fold benefit. In
the first place, he will be brought
that much closer to a hard-sur
faced road. Secondly, the mon
ey now expended on the main
roads will be available for the
improvement of the connecting
roads. Surely, the farmer, re
gardless of his residence with
respect to the main trunk roads,
cannot help but recognize that
he will be benefited by the ex
penditure of funds raised by the
proposed Dona issue.
