Dallas, Ore., April R. Three
proposed ordinances alining re
spectively to curb the clog nuts
ance, place a tax on bread, vege
table produce. Ice cream and gnso
line trucks doing ImsinesH in the
city, and to bring up the date the
ordinance regulating automobile
traffic in the city were introduced
Monday night at the city council
meeting.
The so called truck ordinance.
which has been talked for some
time, would cover all conveyances
making delivery In the city, either
to constituent or stores, except
those operating as common car
riers, maintained by concerns
which have a business location
here, or which operate directly
from the farm to the city. The
object of the proposed ordinance
is to put competing concerns on
parity with local concerns, which
pay taxes or maintain payrriia In
the city.
No set schedule of ices was in
corporated in the proposed ord.
Inance as Introduced but It was
suggested that these might run
from $12 to $50 a year according
to the size of the truck. Another
suggestion was made that the fee
be fixed at $40 a month on trucks
which made regular delivery here.
A full expression of the council
was not given, but It was evident
that opposition existed to the
measure. It was also indicated
that local merchants have been
against regulating all the Incom
ing trucks for the reason that it
would increase expense of obtain
ing goods. The ordinance will
come up for action later.
The dog ordinance, as Intro
duced, would fix a license fee of
$5 and $10 on mnles and females,
nnd require the dogs to he tagged
and muzzled If allowed to run at
large. If not tagged and muzzled
the marshnl would be authorized
to kill them on sight. Objection
wan voiced to allowing dogs tr.
run at large under any condition.
It Is posslhlo that some changes
wilt be made In the ordinance
when it romes up for second read
ing. There has been much pres
sure brought upon Individual
council mem hers, both for and.
against the dog control ordinance.
The proposed automobile ord
inance would repeal five old ord
inances now In effect and Incor.
pnraft their workable features in
the new one. It would also call
for hend-in parking, no parking
closer than 20 feet to a corner or
fire hydrant. The ordinance as
drafted would designate Main ond
Washington streets as main traf
fic arteries with a 20-mlle speed
limit at Intersections nnd place a
five-mile limit on cars entering
from side streets.

VALLEY PATCHES
Portland, April S Planting of
ate cron onions in Oregon, which
began early !ast month, in making
good progress and will continue as
weather permits and as grower?
St the ground ready, until the end
of the present month.
Preeer.t expectation arc for 60D
acres of onions in the Willamette
valley, according to R. L. Ringer of
the bureau of agricultural econo
mics. About 275 acres will be
planted in the Lake Lablsh sec
tion and the remainder In the
,x tightly heavier ioils centering at
Sherwood. The jsecd is planted in
row ltt Inches apart. In the Sher
wood district. 2'A to 3 pounds of
need ore used to an acre, and at
Lake Labish up to 4 pounds, to
give a heavier stand and to pre
vent tbc mill growing so large.
Vieson produces its own variety
of Yellow Danver onion, which is
a three-quarter globe In its ideal
nape and shows tracings of its
early crows with the Australia.!
Brown. One field, at a point.
where the river overflows annual
ly, has produced onions continu
ously for 75 years Another field
has been cropped for 62 consecu
tive years, with only occasional np-
pllcation.- of barnyard manure
Many of the other fields have been
used for 30 or 40 years. Commer-
.ial fertilizers are not employed
ateiiHlvcly, hut their use is in
creasing. During the last two seasons, the
entire stato of Oregon is estimat
ed to have had about 600 acres
planted to onions, and In 19S2 and
1 921 the plantings approximated
900 acres. Heaviest production in
ecent years was 264.000 bushels
In 1922. Last year the estimated
production was 211,000 bushels,
and shipments this reason have
been nearly 600 cars. Total ship
ments fur the 1923-24 season were
192 cars.
