WOMAN'S EMANCIPATION
Woman's work is never done,
so It Is said.
Hut ono baa only to look about
to observo to what a great ex
tout woman's work hat been re
duced by later-day methods of
housekeeping.
Tor up-and-dolng women,
drudgery has been, turned into
'
pleasant occupation by the
magic hand of progress.
Take, for example, the kitch
en, that department of every
home which Is conceded to fur
nish the lion's share of dls-
' agreeable work for woman. Com-
pare the kitchen pt today with
4 that of yesterday. Think of tbo
many, many improvements de-
vised to lessen and make more
interesting woman a work.
Likewise In every other de-
partment of tbe house, progress
is simplifying and making the
woman's work less burdensome.
And yet many women are so
absorbed In their tasks that they
pay little attention to the per-
slstent and onllghtenlng voice of
newspaper advertising.
The Herald is faithful and
true friend to all who wish to
proflt. Manufacturers and re-
tollers nro constantly telling
how to ollmlnato drudgery from
housekeeping.
It pays to shop la The Herald
before you shop la tho stores; 81
per cemi of the drcutaUo of this
paper goes direct tato the homes.
Tbo women of this city will
find they can get nil their waste
supplied by watching the Mu-
tual Qlrl Pag In this paper

In tbe fight tbe government I wag

Dr. A. D. Melvln, who Is tho head of

tho disease Is now believed to be en
tirely under control.

STATE TAX IS
NOT INCREASED
I.N'STKID, HY KAISIXG OV THK
VALUATION PEHCKXTAGK, THE
STATK IMIOPORTIO.V IS UI)E
I.OWKIt
Much speculation exists as to
whether or not tho taxpayers aro ben
efitted by tho raising of the valuation
percentage in Klamath county. Some
contend that this increases the state
taxes here, thus Inflicting a burden
on tho people, but this is not tho case.
Some time ago the state tax com
mission asked several local real es
tate men to glvo valuations on certain
pieces of Klamath county property,
not letting them know that this was
for the tax commission. Tbe valua
tions given by theso men weru com
pared with tbe assessed valuations of
tlio assessor's oillcc, and tbo commis
sion decided that tbe property in
Klamath county was assessed at 59
per cent of Its truo cash value.
The assessor's otllce mndo the total
value of assessable property in Klam
ath county (exclusive of public serv
ice corporations) Slu,5.9,S71. Ac
cording to the percentage sot by tbe
tax commission, this would make the
true value of property 126,373,622.
Deputy Assessor Haydeu presented
fncts .and figures to the tux commis
sion to show that they placed the local
rat lug too low and tho valuo of Klam
ath county property too high. As a
result, the commission changed the
rating to 74 per cent, nn Increase of
in per cent, which- makes the total
valuation $21,025,161, or $5,347,161
lower than tho commission's former
II g 11 res would placo it at.
This percentage has been adopted
as tho ratio applicable to Klamath
county In the apportionment mndo by
the commission on railroads nnd oth
er public service corporations, and as
tho basis for equalization of the
county's valuation in tho apportion
ment of state taxes to be paid for the
ensuing year.
