If Dog Days" Hit Klamath, But Pooches Don't Mind Lower Tax Rates Set For '47-'48 (Continued from Page One) to be compensated by a correspond ing decreaae In mllluge rate. The city of Klamath Fall will get nlung on considerably lea money this fiscal period because the city wa financially able to end an ap propriation to pay off bonded In debtedness. Ho Klamath Fall, with i In mllluge rate of 78.7, Is due to rulse (213,080.76. Last year the city was supposed to get I39240.60 through taxation. Klamath county government la also going to get along on less local .4X money. The county I due to get .jM.027.t5, In place of the (638.848.40 l was down tor last year. Combined mlllege rates for the other towns In Klamath county show a decreaae corresponding to that of Klamath Falls, with the ex ception of that of MeiTlll. That city look on sewer bond obligations thu year. The Merrill rate I 84.1, compared ! lo 66 last year. Matin's rate Is 80.8. compared to 118.8; Chlloquln's Is 69.7 I compared to 66.3; Bonanza's Is 61.7 compared to 66.2. These mllluge rates applied to the new assessed valuation bring about the same amount of tax money as waa paid In last year, maybe a little more. Where the big Increase In money to be raised comes Is In the various school districts. Voters last spring approved Increases over the 6 per cent statutory limitation for all ; schools, although Klamath Union I high school district will get a few hundred dollars less direct tax money than last year. The big boost Is In the county elementary bracket. City school district No. 1 will get (428.689.M In tax money, compared to (360,185.11 last fiscal year. Kla math Union high school district No. 2 will get (364,374.96, compared to (306,618.18. The county elementary unit will get (308,924.19 in tux money, com pared to (183,930.73; county high school unit will get (218.922.16, com pared to (19130 97. Another reason for the greatly In creased county school tax figure, Assessor Glenn Tcrrlll says. Is that last year the schools got a total of (277,576 from the state which they will not get this year. On the other hand the county had decided It would have to levy taxes for (276.108 to make up the required (10 per school child this year, but the state tax commission discovered it had enough of a surplus In the Income '.ax fund to allocate Klamath county (121,570. so the county taxpayers were saved around (14.000. Taken altogether, the amount to j be raised by luxation in Klamath county this year, exclusive of Irrl I gallon districts. Is (2.228,626.06. Last i year the comparative figure was 1(2.151,174.01.

According to the Romans, dog days was a period of 40 days In summer when Slrius, the dog star, was in conjunction with the sun. With the choline of the centuries, cume a change in meaning. Early day folk began to speak of dog days as the time when mad dogs roamed the countryside. It was a populur idea that mad dogs were more prevalent during hot weather, although statistics show that a I . higher number of dogs are Infected with rabies In the winter. Klamath resident needn't be afraid of mud dogs during either winter or summer as a case of hy drophobia hasn't been reported here within the past decade. The area doesn't seem conducive to mad 1 dogs, although Dr. J. C. Hunt, city I dairy and meat Inspector, stated that southern California generally I has numerous cases of dogs going I beserk.
