MARCH 26. 1931 IJiJT'S pvt t h e hen on t h e map Lane county should In* one of the leading poultry pro­ ducing sections of lb«' west. Climatic conditions, feed and accessibility Io market h« re are exceptional. True, eggs have been pretty low this winter but there never was a time when in the long run a good hen could not make something for the experienced poultrymen. A well known poultryman who breeds trapnested and pedigreed stock, and sells his eggs and chickens at a premium, said to us the other day, "I have had to turn down $1500 worth of orders in the last 30 days because I was sold out for the time delivery was wanted." He also said he believed that he probably would lose several thou­ sand dollars more this year for the some reason. Farmers raising wheat and doing general farming around this poultryman are hard up yet here is a man who can not raise sufficient to supply the demand with a very large flock. We heard the head of a dairy department of O. S. C. say “there never was a time when a good cow wouldn't pay her way in this country." We would like to say the same thing for the good hen. More of our farmers should quit raising barnyard chickens and go into the poultry business in earnest. BANNER ROAD YEAR Oregon will receive $1.344.741 in forest road funds this year. A new record and a lot of this money will be spent in Lane county. With the large sums the county and state are spending in Lane county this should be one of the banner road years of the county's history. Work will progress on the McKenzie, Willamette. Coast and Roose­ velt highways besides numerous market, forest and other roads. Old man depression can not hold back the good roads movement in Oregon. We should all benefit by the money expended for these highways, especially when the larger part of it conies from without the countv. GOVERNOR DOES SPRING HOUSECLEANING Sant Kozer, budget director, is about to lose his posi­ tion according to reports from Salem. Governor Meier is house cleaning and it is said Sam must go. He has been connected with the state government a long time, and probably knows more about the operations of state gov­ ernment than any other man in it. His place will no doubt be bard to fill. It is also said that Clare Lee, of Eugene, insurance commissioner, must also go among others. The governor’s broom is reaching into all comers. Let's hope it does not drag any dirt in behind it. The woman, who was city treasurer of LaGrande, has been found $112,000 short in her accounts. The jury failed to agree whether she was short in money or on paper. No doubt they wish to give her time to find the money. But $112,000 and a disagreement should please any woman, especially if it is true that the money is hidden in some safety deposit box in Portland. ----------- e----------- "Oklahoma Man Free for Shooting his Wife,” reads head­ line. There is something for Will Rogers to brag about in his home state. This man escapes both the law and his wife—that’s real freedom. TAX CONTROL (Grants Pass Courier) The auditor’s report on money taken in by Josephine county during the year, and on money spent during the year, is practically completed. In it lies all the questions and all the answers talked of hi recent months by local people of any and all political affiliations. This auditor’s report is complete, exact and thorough. Aet if it were laid upon a table beside the budget for the same year, and the two documents studied by the county court, budget committee, taxpayers’ committee and any othei civic organization, there isn't one chance in a thou­ sand anyone could tell by how much the county’s yearly operations fulfilled or flouted the budget drawn to direct them. One document sets out what the county planned to do. The other reveals what it succeeded in doing. The irrefut­ able fact that the two cannot be compared, item by item or total by total, is the full and complete reason why it is a waste of an intelligent citizen’s time to quibble over a county budget hoping thereby to limit or control a county’s financial operations and therefore its taxes.
