M'CAB PROBABLE E CITY ATTORNEY City Attorney It. B. McCabc. Chief of Police J. P. Hittson. City Engineer 0. Arn-Jpigor. Market jtnstcr -K. J. llunynrd. That is tho nlate of appointments to bo made at tho special sesion of the city council to be held this even log. It is subject lo chnnge but it is believed that thce appointment ull be made. Considerable business is to bo con sidered bv the council tonight, the chief matter being tho letting of n contract for tho paving of tho Dear Creek bridge and olio or two other street. THE county court is considering rotiownl of tho con tract with P. J O'Garn for another year, and is hear iiig arguments for and against. tho suh.iect of orchard tnsneetibn is extremely im portant, indeed vital to futuro welfare of the valley. It is a matter that not only concerns the horticulturist, hut everyone in the community ami the prosperity of southern Oregon rests very largely upon the care given the fruit tree. Orchard inspection is paid for at present hy the bear ing orchards of the valley, which are increased in assessed valuation in order to raise the necessary sum. Tho tax on the bearing orchards for inspection amounts this year to approximately $21,000, whereas the actual cost op in spection is froiul(),000 to $11,000. The method of providing this sum is sulrjeet to just criticism, for young orchards should stand a portion of the cost, and no more money should be raised than needed. These matters will be adjusted by the new county court for another year when the board of equalization meets next fall. The cost to till orchards will be so sliirht as to ! X ' cummaic criticism. j.-roi. u uara nas mane good as pathologist in charge ot Jackson county. Our orchards are famous for their cleanliness under his administration. His work on blight and other orchard pests and upon orchard heating and frost prevention have won national attention. Along these lines he is the valley's best advertisement. His work is not confined to orchards, but spreads over the entire field. His ndvice is as valuable to farmers as it is to fruitgrowers and most valuable to novices engaging in an occupation they know nothing of. The objection to Prof. O'Gara comes principally from those who oppose all orchard inspection, from those whose infected trees have been ruthlessly cut down upon refusal to clean and from those who think a salary of ,$T000 a year is too rimch to pay any human being, no matter how much he knows or how many tens of thousands of dollars his services as expert may save the county. There is approximately $20,000,0(K) invested in or chards in the Rogue River valley. Ts it possible that scientific and expert knowledge from an acknowledged authority upon the subject even as insurance against pests, is not worth s?o000 a year to the owners of twenty million dollars worth of property? Prof. O'Gara should by all 'means be retained. He could not be satisfactorily replaced. BONDING FOR HIGHWAYS.

UAIIIXKTT lllnulu M. i7i kn 47 Ambulance Brv!c Deputy Coroner tho effort ot T NTERESTIXG and valuable road information is com- piled in the Pacific Highway bulletin issued April 2 by Henry L. Bowlby, executive officer, former highway commissioner of Washington and a road builder of nation al reputation. It contains data important- to every good roads advocate. The county bonding act, recently passed by the legis lature, is set forth as the kev to an adequate svstem of highways in Oregon. By tho voting of bonds, up to the two per cent assessed valuation of tho counties, $18,000,000 in road money would be available from this one source. Ittr. Bowlby remarks: AH money raised by bonds for road purposes must be spent along per manent lines. If this is not dono trouble will follow when thn result of tho expenditure aro gone and tho peoplo aro forced to continue to par for tbo bonds. By permanent construction of a road Is meant, first, that tho road Is properly located; that Is, that tho road Is so located that tho people will not desire to chango It In the futuro. After tho road Is properly located, a permanent grade should bo established for It. With this accomplished, all construction work based upon the established location and grade will be of a permanent nature. Tho proper surfacing for a road must bo determined by a competent engineer, taking Into account all existing conditions In each case. In tho future, tho state highway engineer will be at the service of all counties. The expenditure of $18,000,000 at $5,000 a mile would give 2071.;! miles of permanent highway. The amount spent uimng tne past tliree years lor roads and bridges totals $10,358,793. The amount being raised this year by direct taxation for exnendituro totals g3.2.l .fires. AIV A , r j -jw.- . ..... Bowlby centinues: It will be noted thai If each county Issued tho full amount of bonds possible under this law, and If tho county court made tho samo levy for roads and bridges In 1913 as lu 1012. tho annual Interest on tho bond Llf,i,onJ?L0i,,' w?'.,ld b0 P0'11' m,t ,1,Br Wo"IJ remain approximately x-,.2.,000 from this regular lovy to bo spent on ordinary road construe tlou In tho counties, This means that there can bo spent In Oregon 118,000,000 on a system of improved roads by tho county authorities, also, that there can bo ex pended $2,222,000 each year on ordinary road construction, and the tax payers will not have to pay a greater-road tax than they did In 1JU2. .i. Mor.e,ovcr' ,hl does take Into account tho great Increase In value of tho taxablo property of the state duo to tho expondrtum of a large amount of money on Improved road work. Tho actual result would bo that, duo to tho Increased value of the property because of tho construction of Improved roads, the levy would decreaso from year to year. Jackson county's assessed valuation for this year is $36,735, 071. It is 3.42 per cent of the total assessed value of the state. The amount expended bv the county during tho last four years for roads and bridges is $503, G37 or 4.80 per cent of tho total amount spent in the state. Am- iiiuuiuiL jivauantc uy a z ner cent bona issue 14 spJVUl. .interest on this amount at a maximum of C per cent amounts to $-14,082 annually. This makes an annual levy of 1.2 mills. This year the road levy is 3 mills or approximately $110,000. The bond intornsf. cmiWl Ln ,i,.i,i from this sum and still leave $60,000 for road work, with out any greater levy than at present. Jackson county will bo the first county in the stale to vote on road bonds under the new law. The bonds will rtf3,1,701 for Perniail011t highway construction and at ijSdOOO a mile, will build approximately 146 miles. But the mileage covered will bo much greater as a large part of the preliminary construction work has already been done.
