Two Taxes We Like We are no more inclined to favor additional taxes than is the average resident of the county, but there are two such measures on the November ballot that we feel are worthy of general support. They are the two county measures to continue the 10 mill road levy for an additional five years and the 5 mill levy for the construction of an additional wing on the Pioneer Memorial hospital. If the county court is to continue with its pro gram of oiling and graveling county roads, the .special road levy is a necessity. All of the road betterment which has been completed during the past several years has been made possible by this money and the proposed tax is a continuation of the present levy which was voted four years ago, and will expire next June 30. The court has done a gootl job with its road program, but it is not finished. To complete It, it will take the money derived from the extension of this levy. Good roads are equally important to farmers and city resi dents for each must do business with the other, and good year -around county roads are the life lines of every town's potential market. One visit to Pioneer Memorial hospital on prac tically any day during recent weeks would con vince the most sceptical why the additional bed room wing is needed. Patients weren't guile sleeping two to a bed, but t he next thing to it. It has been, on numerous occasions, operating at i.etler than 1007o of capacity. The additional wing, planned to house 15 more hospital beds, and several added rooms on the lower floor for welfare and nursing patients, will be relatively inexpensive, as hospital construction goes. The main plant the surgeries, technical facilities, heating plant, kitchen etc., were de signed originally to handle an additional wing of bedrooms. This type of construction and equip ment costs little in comparison to the added in come the hospital can receive from it, and very little additional help can tend to the rieeds of an other 15 patients. It is entirely possible that the extra income will eventually make possible the entire elimination of the $1,000 per month now budgeted by the county for hospital improve ments. In other words, it will be operating on a completely paying basis. If that can be done, the $12,000 annual saving to taxpayers will soon pay back the $70,000 the proposed 5 mill, one year levy will cost them. Residents of the north end of the county, who are farther away from the hosiptal's facilities are understandably less interested in the hospital than are local residents, yet it is not all give and no take for them either. The combination of faci lities for the care of regular patients and wel fare patients by one staff and in One building materially cuts the cost of taking care of those on the county rolls. If separate facilities were re quired, the cost per patient would be much higher, and the proposed addition will provide much need ed room for the care and treatment of these per sons. Both measures appear to us as completely justified and well worthy of a"Yes" vote at the polls. County Agent News , . By N. C. Anderson With sprinkler irrigation be coming so popular in Morrow County, many thousands of dol lars have been spent on sprinkler equipment. With so many dollars invested in this equipment, thought should be given to what can be done to lengthen the life of this invest ment. Proper care and storage during the winter months should bo the concern of all at this time of year. This extra care will not only save money, but put the equipment in readiness for oper ation next spring. Gather up the sprinkler pipe and slack it in racks indoors if possible. In case the pipe is stacked outdoors one end of the stack with a cleat on the top edge can be used as a separator be tween rows. Remove couplings and sprink ler heads and store indoors. Clean and paint rust spots on galvan ized couplings. Remove and in spect rubber gaskets and clean valve gasket seats. Replace worn fiber gaskets in sprinkler head. Store pumps in a dry place. Dry out interior and oil. Crank cast oil is good enough. Store electric motors in a dry place. In gasoline motors, gas tanks should be drained and the carburetors run dry. Change oil while oil is still hot. Remove spark plugs; squirt a few tea spoonsful of oil into each cylin der, rotate a few times and re place spark plugs. Take specific precautions that the magneto will be free from moisture. If these few simple recommen dations are followed, the life of your sprinkle irrigation equip ment will be increased many years and will be ready for care free service when spring rolls 'round. o Local Livestock Consigned For Moro Show and Sale The seventh annual Midco Hereford association show and sale will be helit Octoner 19 ana 20 at the Sherman county fair grounds at Moro with the show scheduled for Sunday and the sale the following day.

Claudien 4 Bring Retail Prices Down ... Keep Farm Prices Up VOTE 332 YES ON THE MILK PRODUCTION AND MARKETING ACT NOV. 4 flies important Oregon organizations tell you why If you ire confused by conflicting claims about milk laws, be guided by the counsel of those who have made thorough and impartial studies of the question. The Milk Production and Marketing Act was put on the ballot by the Affiliated Milk Committees of Oregon, which is composed of citizen groups all over the state. We have no connection with the milk industry and our only interest is in securing a milk law which will be fair to everybody. We were guided bv the views of representative Oregon organizations labor, consumers, retailers, farmers, civic groups. TO WAGE EARNERS labor groups say VOTE 332 YES The last state convention of the CIO said, "We feel the Milk Production and Market ing Act gives the necessary protection to the producer . . . and makes better milk available at more reasonable prices to the consumer." Oregon State Industrial Union Council (CIO) TO CONSUMERS Womtn's groups say Vote 332 YES Says the Portland Federation of Women's Organizations, representing 72 clubs, with 16,000 members: "Thousands of Oregon families have growing children and limited budgets. A vote of 332 YES will enable these families to afford more wholesome fresh milk." Portland Federation of W omen's Organizations TO FARMERS Dairymen say Vote 332 YiS W. A. Johnson, Grants Pass dairyman and President of the Oregon Producer Distributors Association says, "Milk Con trol has consistently lowered the butterfat content of the milk wt sell while increasing the price the consumer pays for milk. The new law will assure you of a fair price and give more dairymen an opportunity to contribute to Oregon's supply of Grade A milk." Oregon Producer-Distributors Assn. TO BUSINESS MEN Business and professional leaders in Portland City Club (arefully studied milk control This nonpartisan group of over 1,000 citizens after studying the present Milk Control Law, reported as follows : "Although considerable argument was presented by various witnesses regarding the necessity of continuing price control at the distributor level, the majority of the committee did not find the distribution and sale of fluid milk sufficiently unlike the marketing of other food products to justify special treatment. We have found insufficient justification for controlling fluid milk prices at resale level." Portland City Club TO MERCHANTS hod stores say Vote 332 YES The Oregon Food Merchants Association, representing the independent grocers of Oregon, in its endorsement of the Milk Production and Marketing Act says, "The association reiterates its desire for store differential which it feels the present law does not permit." Oregon Food Merchants Association TO VOTERS 332 YES agrees with views of political groups of both parties This new FAIR milk bill will conform with the last formal platform position of the Democratic party in Oregon which said "eliminate all provisions of the milk control law except sanitation regulations and minimum price for farmers." Oregon State Democratic Party On September 14, the state policy meeting of the Young Republican Federation of Oregon said "whereas the proposed'Milk Marketing Act 332 YES which has been placed on the ballot by the signatures of 43,000 citizens is eminently fair to tho farmer and the consumer ... we the majority of the agricultural committee of this convention urge its adoption."
