If taxes on dairy farms come
high, blame real estate agents
and sharks for some of it.
Why not ask the Railroad
Commission to remove the toll
gate in Yamhill county, for it is
an injustice and graft in these
days of progress.
Speaking about detectives, we
heard a person say, why don't

tions in a certain farm in the
north of the county.

real estate sharks have man*
aged to "water" it with ad
vanced valuations and commis
sions no one can tell.
Renewed effort should be put
forth to improve the quality of
Tillamook chesse. That, with
the large amount of advertising
it receives in the newspapers,
will keep the price of the home
product at the top possible price.
At the commencement of the
season is a good time to do this.
The new tariff law will demor
alize the price of cheese, and to
off set this a superior quality of
cheese will command better
prices. The dairy interests ol
the county have done much to
improve the quality of Tilla
mook cheese.
Let the good
work go on and endeavor to con
vince everybody that it is the
quality of Tillamook cheese
that gives it its wide reputation
and demand for the same.

There
you have it in a nutshell,which
is going to be a burning ques
tion in this county. It is a live
subject because it cuts quite a
swarth into dairymen’s incomes
at tax-killing times.
We are
going to ask the Grangers of the
county to discuss this question
at their meetings, and propound
a few questions : “Is it right to
pay out hard earned money in
taxation for inflated values in
dairv lands ?”
W hat do they
think would be a fair valuation
to place on the different kinds
of land ?” “Why is it that many
dairvmen place high valuations
on their lands when a prospec
tive buveris in sight, and then
‘beef’ like blazes at their lands
being assessed at one half the
valuation they have placed on
them ?"

the universal happiness and pros
perity of all our people. We should
plan for large things in this grand
old Oregon.
Agriculture is our
basic wealth. Last year the farms
of Oregon yielded crops represent
ing an aggregate value of $140,000,-
000 and this even is no measure
of the possibility of agriculture in
this Btate. Therefore, the success
of our commercial, banking, manu
facturing and transportation inter
ests is largely dependable upon the
farms of Oregon. The most im
portant problem confronting the
people of Oregon today is better
means of transportation. We need
better roads, deeper channels to
the sen, and more railroads ; these
are the main arteries of commerce
and lead to a higher civilization
We should encourage the building
of railroads and remember that
capital must be assured of fair
earnings from investments, other
wise investments will not be made.
I believe in the principle of making
the burden of taxation as easy as
possible, therefore advocate the
payment of one half of the taxes by
the first of April and the balance
by the first of September, without
penalty. 1 stand for rigid law en
forcement and advocate the repeal
of all useless laws 1 am heartily

tralia, by way of San Francisco.
Three hundred thousind pounds
from that country has been laid
down here within the last two or
three weeks. Butter has also been
shipped from the Argentine, Den
mark and Siberia. The shipments
butter dealers admitted today, have
created marked uneasiness in the
wholesale market, with the result
that there has been an unloading
of various stocks. The best grade
butter was selling today at 20 2
to 27 cents n pound wholesale.
The American demand for foreign
butter has caused a rise of 2 to 3
cents a pound in some of the foreign
markets. It is generally admitted
here that the price oi butter in this
country will be kept in the future
at a lower average level than be
fore.

Bro. Trombley is one of the few
Democrats who shouted for the
free trade party and is lauding
the new tariff law, notwith
standing that all the products
of Tillamook county are placed
on the free list.
The semi-annual edition of
the Trade Review, published by
G. R. Dun & Co., is a most un
reliable .and misleading publi
cation, and we want, in behalf of
the people of Tillamook, to pro
test against such garbled stuff
being sent out to fool the peo
ple.
We give below what it
purports to be the business con
ditions and outlook in this coun
ty, which we declare is absurd
from beginning to end, Every
body knows that it is a lie to say
there is a ten per cent increase
in cheese at Bay City, because it
neither ships nor manufactures
cheese. Read the absurd truck :
T illamook C otnty .
B ay C ity .—There is a 10 per
cent increase in cheese production
and lumber is normal. Farmers are
in excellent financial condition and
loans are being reduced on account
of prosperous seasons. Merchants
are in very good condition with
normal stocks and book accounts.
Prospects for 1914 are good.
C loverdale .—Dairying is the
prominent industry. There is an
increase in the cheese production.
The salmon pack was lees than half
of last year on account of glutted
market. A whey sugar fac’ory was
established at Tillamook this year.
Farmers are prosperous and in the
South end of the county merchants
are in good financial condition,
carrying normal stocks. In some
section of the county more is being
carried on the books than usual.
T illamook .—Cheese shows an
increase of 5 per cent. Small quan
tities of hay and grain are raised.
Lumber shows an increase of 20 per
cent.
The financial condition oi
the farmers is fairly good. Loans
are being increased in some places
for
improvements,
Merchants
generally are in fair condition.
Prospects nre fair for 1914. The
tariff may affect cheese and lumber.
Government projects at Nehalem
and Tillamook will make business
better.
W heeler .—Cheese
butter and
vegetables show increase of 10 per
cent to 30 per cent. Canned salmon
a decrease of 40 per cent. Shingles
an increase of 100 per cent, boxes
and sashes, 25 per cent. A new
shingle mill and two new saw mills
have been established during the
Summer
Farmers are in good
financial condition. Speculation in
land is over and farmers are paying
out on their farms. Vegetable and
berry growing are being added to
dairying. Merchants are prosper
ous ard carrying lighter stocks on
account of buying conservatively.
Very little was done in fisheries
this year and consequently mer
chants are carrying more on their
books. Harbor work projected will
be in full swing in 1914 and should
stimulate business, especially if the
lumber market improves.
