1948 is the sewer, for which the
election comes up early in Feb
ruary. 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. Julius
