School District Officials Fear Turndown Of Money Farm Adviser Gives Report A 43 per cent Increase In a 10- year period. That's the record of American farmers in their crop yields per acre, reports tulelake Fam Adviser Ken Baghott of the University of California. Records show that in 1958, the average, each 57 acres of crop land harvested in this country pro duced as much food, livestock feed and fiber as 100 acres yielded only 10 years ago. Several factors have brought about this big increase. Growers have intensified production on the better lands and larger farms, thus increasing the average yields. Farmers are constantly adopting new practices in land and crop management. They realize that high yields tend to bring lower costs per production unit. Then, too, good farmers like to exceed the yields of others in their neigh borhood. The increases in California since 1940. only 18 years ago. show the trend. Yields have increased 44 per cent for deciduous fruit trees. 116 per cent for potatoes, 168 per cent (or tomatoes, 55 per cent for strawberries. 28 per cent for milk per cow, and 46 per cent for eggs per hen.

By NORM CARDOZA Officials of School Districts One and Two are fretting this Week about two moves made by t h e county tax assessor during the past few days. They feel the untimely moves may prompt voters to turn down requests for money during the May 4 district elections. For in a fell swoop the tax as sessor's office declared a 17 per cent blanket increase in assessed value of all property within the two school districts. And it launched a campaign to reappraise much of the residential Hot Springs area east of Kit Larson nay Voters, without understanding completely the intricacies of tax assessment, may revolt against schools requests for money, offi cials fear, since schools traditional ly take the lion s share of property taxes yearly. Schools are asking for consider ably less money than they asked for and got last year. And the in crease in assessed value does not mean that taxes have suddenly risen for everyone in town. Some may get cuts. But fierce protest apparently is emanating from the Hot Springs sector the assessor's target for reappraisal this year. Property there has not been appraised since iy.il. ' i Through methods known, at pres ent, only to them, Assessor Hap Caldwell and his staff have shot many appraisals skyward in the hot water belt. Those whose ap praisals have risen will undoubt edly be taxed more. Theoretically, it s not precise to say yet that their taxes will increase. How much they will be taxed will depend on four budgets in the county. They are those of- city and county governments and of the two city school districts. None have yet been approved. An additional factor, not yet de- Basin Educators Name New Chief Mrs. Dorthia Kuist. has been named president of the Klamath County Primary Branch of the As sociation for Childhood Education to succeed Mrs. Lucille West, Mer rill. Other officers for 1959 - 1960, elected at the April 25 meeting were Mrs. Aura Mitchell, vice president and Mrs. Dorothy Glenn, secretary-treasurer. The meeting was held at the new Stearns School with a coffee hour and school tour before the meet ing. Mrs. Buena Stone spoke on What Oregon's Centennial Can Mean to Children in the Primary tirades." Reports were given on what schools have done to recog nize the Centennial. There was a demonstration on Centennial danc ng and singing by Mrs. Lorna Ileilbronner's third grade pupils at Mearns school. termined, Is how much taxable property the area has gained or lost during the year. Greater Klam ath Falls has grown in popula tion. But that docs not mean that the value of taxable property has risen. Key word in determining taxa- ation is mill. Agencies which d-aw funds from county tax roles budget in mills. A mill of tax is one tenth of a cent per dollar of assessed value. Suppose a home's true value is determined to be $25,000. Assessed value is placed at $5,000 because that is the way the assessor's of fice figures things. Everyone's property is assessed at 20 ner rent of its true value as determined oy the assessor. Should the high school, for In stance, need 20 mills of tax money from every property owner in the district to operate for the next fiscal year, the man whose home has an assessed value of $5,000 win pay $100 for high school opera tion. Reason Caldwell has added the 17 per cent blanket increase is In bring assessed property values in the county in line with the state average. The move apparently sim plifies bookkeeDine. hut it has nn direct bearing on how much tax property owners will pay. KING PILOTS JET DUNSKOLD.
