TP VOLUME XXVI Mill City Enterprise NUMBER 18 Up and Down The Avenue By Don Moffatt We hear so much these days about air pollution that some times I think it is ridiculous, but I suppose there is some merit to the problem, especial ly in the larger cities. I can see where burning of huge piles of trash in Portland, or even Salem, would cause some trouble—but in towns like Stayton, or Mill City, and the other towns in the Canyon, I just can’t buy it. Certainly it is more sensible to do a little backyard burning than to try to bury everything, and event ually have garbage up to our necks.
