The tim ber covered by the tax pajment is located In eastern jacksor. county near the Klamat,h county line. Tli new state law ft ran tin a re bates tor full payment has increased individual tax payments, and corpo rations are also taking advantage of the provisions. Most of the payments to date have been from smalt land and home owners. Government checks are numerous In the pay ments. Quite a number of payments , are for both this and last year.
