trains, empty refrigerator cars goini
east, logging trains end V, U, C
trains all have contributed to the In
creased employment for railroad men,
each special train requiring a crew
of six men. Outlook for railroad bus
iness Is brighter than In years, of
ficials declare, and they anticipate
continued IncreaaeB In employment.
Kliop forces already have been add
ed to slightly.
Out in the country, there Is some
demand for farm bands, although this
haa been cut down due to the freca
ing out of much of the bay crop,
Armitage declared. Some demand for
harvest bands for alfalfa and vetch
cutting is being felt here, however.
Mora Road Work Due
Highway construction which la ex
pected to start in thla county In the
near future as the result of. federal
money apportioned to the state, will
add to the employment of men, espe
cially in the coast section where five
bridges, to replace the present fer
ries on the Oregon coast highway,
may be built. State highway engineers
have estimated that 700 men would
be employed on these bridges which
means work for many Lane county
men on the Lane section.
Ke-routmg of the Pacific highway
between Junction City and Goshen,
recently proposed by the highway
commission and for which a surrey
is now under way, would mean the
employment of aeveral hundred men
in this county.
Jn view of the general Improve.
ment, the announcement Saturday
that poor tax collections were forc
ing Lane county to cut expenditures,
commencing with road work, was
bsiled aa less ominous for workers
than if it had come earlier. Aa it Is.
prospects are that many of the men
who may be let go by the county will
be absorbed in the growing demands
from industries.

A demonstration of a new cultiva
tor attachment, invented by Russell
W. Earnest of Marcola, will be held
on the Cloverleaf dairy farm Monday
afternoon at 2 o'clock, under the di
rection of O. S. Fletcher, county
agent, It was announced Saturday,
The industrial committee of the Eu
gene chamber of, commerce 1 spon
soring the demonstration.
Earnest's attachment is said to do
a more efficient job of weed killing
and at the same time does not dis
turb the plants being cultivated. The
device consists of two aroajl plows
which straddle the row and get all
weeds close to the plants without
cutting or disturbing the roots. It
will fit any standard cultivator.
The device la being manufactured
at the R. H. Pierce machine shop
by Arthur Richards.
"We believe the new device will
materially decrease hand work In
connection with weed control work
on the farm and experiments con
ducted to dnte indicate it will in
crease production through greater
efficiency In weed and killing breaking
up of the. soil,"- said Mr. Fletcher.
"Every farmer 'who Intends to do
any cultivating should attend this
demonstration Monday.
V. H. Davis of the Cloverleaf dairy
farm, is co-operating in conducting
the demonstration.
Educational work among the men
of the Civilian Conservation Corps
camps to famillarit them with val
ue and use of the forests has been
started and will be carried out at
all the camps throughout the sum
mer, according to information re
ceived at the office of the Willam
ette national forest.
The work will be along the line
of Instructing the men regarding the
recreational value of the forest, the
watershed rallies, the work of the
ranger, identifying trees, plants, an
imals and birds, the .actual work of
reforestation, causes and results of
forest fire and various other things.
It Is the plan to devote some time
to teaching thes thing to the men
during their own spare time when
tim hanga heavily on their hands.
ie Idea Is to give the men an im
pression of the forest that they will
carry away with them when the work
I completed. It is planned to es
tablish exbiblta at the different camps
showing different varieties of trees,
foliage and plants.
The plan also include the building
up of a complete record of under
taking at each camp. Photographs
will be taken of the different areas
before work, such as snag falling,
is started and then after the work
la finished.

Taxpayer In Jeopardy
"The county court realise . fully
that many taxpayers are nnable to
pay their taxes and that It Is no fault,
of their own that their taxea remain
delinquent and unpaid. On the other
hand, the county court does not deem
it good business to keep up county
expenditures, and thereby jeopardise
the property rights and interests of
those who pay their taxes, a well
a those who cannot pay toeir taxes,
by creating. county warrant Indent
ednea of several, hundred thousand
dollars to be paid from future tax
source..
. "On account of poor tax collec
Hons, the county court ia firm in the
belief that even necessary expenur
lures must be cut, and expects to act
accordingly. In this effort every citi
zen of the county must take a sacri
fice and loss In service expected, so,
rrnrdleis of the wisdom of lorego.
Ing these' sacrifice and losses, there
is no other course ' from a practical
business' standpoint, for the county
court to follow. For' illustration, it
n farmer was nlaceu in charge of a
farm, or a business man in charge of
a business, and In eitner instance naa
nlnnned for 5.600.00 worth of work
necessary and vital to too continu
ance of that business, it is obvious.
I onlv 25 ner cent or xi.zoo.w ot
funds was made available, neitner tne
farmer nor business man could tunc.
Hon as he had anticipated. Your
county court is In the same status
as the above illustration, me same
service cannot be given on a 25 per
cent tax collection that could be given
on 100 ner . cent tax collection,
With such poor tax collection, It Is
imperative that we do without many
things that we wouia ne enuiieu u
if tax payments were better.
"With this viewpoint, the county
court ha In mind the making ot sev
eral cut in tax expenditures, said
cuts to be made July 1.
"Directly under the county court's
.supervision, county road expenditures
will be where the largest cuts can
and will be made. Jn cooperation
with other department heads, we ex
pect to take up the poaslbility of
other reductions of tax expenditurea."

you $1.00. The next 600 cubic feet (4,500 gallons)' cost you 11c per 100 j
feet or 66c. So for 1,000 cubic feet (7,500 gallons) you pay only $1-66. All ovw
the first 1,000 cubic feet cost you only 5c per hundred.
If you use 4 000 cubic feet (30,000 gallons), 3,000 cubic feet is at 5c whicA equJi
$1.50, plus the $1.66 for the first 1,000 used amounts to $3.16 for the 4,000 cn.
By following the line bpo-tnnlnrr n.m, a nnn . t, it. crosses the lbf'

The above figures show that the water used over the 1,000 cubic feet costs g
