To the Taxpayers: There seems to be seme apprehension among the taxpayers of Medford as to what it is going to cost them if the Airport Bonds are voted. If a property owner of Medford has property as sessed for $1000.00, he will pay not to exceed $2.00 per year for the port, and if the city continues to grow, as in the past four years, the extra tax would be less than $1.50 per year. ... The valuation of Medford is $7,608,925.00, and if the city continues its growth, it should reach a valua tion of ten million dollars within the next three or four years. If the valuation should make an increase of two and a half million, then the average taxpayer wculd contribute not over $1.50 per year in support of the air- Prrt J. B. COLEMAN, . ' County Assessor.
