WYNNE Let s examine the budget of Klamath County and evaluate the amount of property taxes levied to meet that budget, and how the various portions of the property taxes aro expended. The total budget of the county amounts to $2,(122,245. Of this amount, $1,012,305 will be levied in property taxes in the county. The remainder will be taken care of by money received from otltcr sources. However, in that properly tax figure of $1,012,305, there is $30!), 035 that is budgeted for the counly school fund. This amount is more properly allocated to school ex pense. It results from a per school child census levy of $22.03 per child between the ages of six and 18. This money, in turn, is pro rated to the various schools in the counly on the basis of number of students, Actually, the Klamath County budget that is levied in property taxes amounts to only $707,077, This amount represents 17.12 per cent of the total property taxes levied in the counly. In other words, Klamath County spends 17.12 cents of each property lax dollar collected. That 17.12 cents of each property tax dollar is expended in this man ner by the county: 13.8 cents for the general fund. 2.2 cents for (lie general road fund. 0.8 cents for the county library. 0.2 cents for fair board. 0.08 cents for armory. 0.04 cents for museum. The largest shore, 13.8 cents of each property tax dollar, goes to the general fund. Total amount budgeted in the general fund amounts to $1,138,048, but of this total, receipts in the fund are ex pected to total $576,097, leaving about $361,931 to be levied in property taxes By JAMES D.

Stock traders felt that if such dip in business activity and earn ings was in the works, then most stocks were over priced. They have a number of items in today's news to bear out their fears that bullish times may ending for a while. The question today is whether the correction in stock prices since mid July has gone enough has fully discounted advance tne business recession which may or may not be abor ing. Some think the market has ov aiscounted tne cnances ol a reces sion that the big snapback last Wednesday marked the end of the price drop. Since the stock exchange is an auction market in which some want to buy and some want to sell there are many who feel just the opposite, iney noia mat tne stock price decline has still more distance to go before prices ac curately minor the chances business being as good and earn ings as high or higher next year Predictions about business are only a little more trustworthy than those about horse races.

His croup is made up of the ma lor potato chip manu facturers in Oregon and Washing ton and their ideal is a round, thin-skinned white potato. Specific gravity and nun-lure content go into the selection ol variety and type and amount of fertilizer also affect the mature tuber, he said. Potato chip manufacturers are showing an increased interest in using potatoes grown within short shipping distances of their plants Some of the chippers, Willis said. are in a position to contract in advance for crops, provided the grower will specialize.
