In Junction City now, there is not and never has been any sanitary disposal arrangement but septic tanks and old-fashioned outdoor toilets. The flatness of the land makes the problem an acute one. Tank cleaners are busy con stantly hauling the residue to the city dump, the only possible disposal grounds. Few Building Lota According to a recent survey by a Register-Guard correspondent at Junction City, there is hardly a building lot available for sale within the city limits. Very few In fact are still vacant, and those that are are to be built upon very soon. Exact figures on the building permits were not available at once, as the city recorder's office is be ing moved. But city officials said that growth through 1947 has been steady, with noticeable concentra tion around the high school. Jun ction City has no particular slum problem, no low-rent housing de mand. Average valuation would fall somewhere around $1800, but this Is due more to very old homes that are still In use than to chep' ness of construction. New Planer Biggest single building project in Junction City In 1947 was the big expansion of the Hult Lum ber Co., which made a portion of its loading dock into a planing mill and made important modern izations and Improvements.
