MA CRMNA CASES TO BE PI COUNTY BONDS REDUCE TAXATION. Wlll'IN oity property owners waul (ho streets in front of their properly vmvod, (hoy have lo -my (ho on lire cost. AVhon (ho fount y roads uro itnprovotl instead of abutting property paying tho eost, as in tho oity, (ho burden is shared by tho entire oounty, cities, corporations and non-resident timbor owners. Tho fanner nets (he maximum benefit- nt a minimum price, appreciation in values, reduction in cost ot trans portation, and all (ho numerous advantages (hat follow in the wake of public improvement. The farmer ought to jump at the chance to secure paved roads under such favorable conditions. Much is hoard about the increased cost of taxation, caused by the bond issue. Lot us analyze this cost. Tho annual interest on $."00.000 at o per cent is $2.3,000. Add (o this $10,000 a year as sinking fund for the next ten years, when one-fifth of the principal falls due. This inakos a total of $ftf,000 to be raised by taxation, or less than a one mill tax on (he present valuation of .f.'W.OOO.OOO. Therefore, for each $1000 assessed to a property owner he pays only $1 per annum. Tho annual road levy during the past four years has been from 'J to 4 mills, of which over 12 mills has gone for iinprovmonts upon tho same highway that will be taken care of in tho future by the bonds. The $..",.000 annually can be taken from tho present road levy and still leave a much larger fund for use on other roads than has ever been available, without any increase in the taxes. The bond issue, therefore, provides an economical and business-like plan of securing a permanent highway, with its multitudinous benefits, without any increase in taxa tion, but as the bond interest and sinking fund is less than half the present cost of maintaining (he road, really ef fects a material economy and makes possible actual reduc tion in taxation, or the use of tho money raised at present on laterals. MOTIVE POWER FROM ORCHARDS. ANEW use for cull apples and other waste orchard and farm products was advocated by Joseph M. Anglada, mechanical engineer of New York City at the convention of the National Gas Power show at Convention Hall, Kan sas City. Friday afternoon. "Anumber of farmers can get together and form a co operative plant," Mr. Anglada said. "They can bring their refuse to ono point and use it to make denatured al cohol with which to supply the fuel for their farm engines. This is the solution of the'problem for supplying power on the farm. f these co-operative associations can be formed they will be found of inestimable value to all who realize the importance of the agricultural engine." Explaining the value of denatured alcohol as a fuel, Mr. Anglada said that 35-ton trucks had been run in New York City for a year as an experiment to test its efficacy. "CSood results were obtained," ho said. " It was found that denatured alcohol accomplished more work for less money. Kerosene ma be good for commercial uses, but the motive power furnished by alcohol is cheaper and more desirable than that obtained from any other source. "There, are barrels of apples which go to waste on the farm. If the fanner could gather up these apples and take them to a place whore he, with others, 1ms established a mill, denatured alcohol could be made in large quantities." Johnathan Bourne on Crater Lake (From Jhe Portland Journal.) Crater Luko National park pre hcuts the most wonderful, mo-4 in teresting and innht uwo inspiring M'viiery in tho world. This is the assertion made by fonncr Senator Jonntban Ilotirnc Jr., whou judgment n based upon pcr.nun! obervution covering world-wide travel. Mr. Hourno tint! four momboM of his of fice forco returned thin morning from a vacation trip to Crator Luko and all are intensely culhuiatie over the trrandeur of tho scenery and deeply impro-K'il with the nntionnl imort- nticc of thin "ncicntific riddle of tho world." ".Wither words nor pictures can eomcy an approximately correct im pression of tho magnificent grandeur of this national park and its central feature, Crater Luke," said Senator Ronnie this morning. "I have beard and read descriptions of the hike nml lmvo Mtou colored pictures of it that were the best product of the photo graphic nrt, but I deceived myself in thinking they gave mo n fair conccp tion of the beauty combined with im mensity, the ronhiiiuil change, coup led with eternal stability, presented by this unparalleled product of tho irresUtiblo forces of world forming evolution.

They believe the tlmo has coino to mako permanent roads and cease wasting monoy on poor ones and that tho Pacific Highway means a great boom for tho valley. Tho Kocord endorses these views.
