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.

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."
Young Republication Fed. of Ore.
Remember when you go o the polls Nov. 4th
look for the Milk Production and Marketing Act
VOTE 332 X YES for a FAIR milk law
