Regular exercise helps materially
to keep the bull in good condition.
Any method that will make the slug­
gish bull take exercise regularly and
without overwork is satisfactory. The
main point is for him to get it. In
some countries bulls are yoked like
oxen and used to pull a plow, to haul
manure, or to do other farm work.
Where there is only one bull, special
hitching arrangements for work on
a cart may be made. Thus the bull
not only gets his exercise but at the
same time does useful farm work. A
treadmill is semetimes used, but is
not always satisfactory because the
bull sometime learns tricks for stop­
ping the machine and needs tj be
watched.
A pen large and roomy enough for
exercising may be all that is needed
for some bulls, but others are lazy
and need to be forced to exercise. A
young bull turned in the lot with an
older one will usually cause the old­
er one to take his "daily dozen.” The

younger bull will usually be active
enough to keep out of danger if the

ence to one of our fundamental civic
duties is a menace to representative
government. Those who deliberately
disfranchise themselves are unworthy
of citizenship.

«^WOULD
we stand for a law that
kept 3000 families out of Oregon?
Of course we wouldn’t! So it’s up to us to vote the
antagonistic Income Tax Law out of existence!
For it has already lost for Oregon payrolls amount­
ing to more than six million dollars ($6,000,000)
a year! And six million dollars means at least
3000 families who are loot to Oregon’s popula­
tion in just one year under this dangerous law.

If there are two things Oregon needs above all others it is (I ) jobs for her
workers, and (2) markets for her products. Every new enterprise or in­
dustry brought into Oregon means more jobs. Jobs support population. Ev­
ery increase in population means a better market for farm and factory
products.
Yet the income tax law antagonizes industries and enterprises. Many au­
thentic cases are on file where industries MOVED OUT OF OREGON OR
DECIDED NOT TO COME TO OREGON because of the income tax law.
Counting loss of capital invested, purchases and payroll, this loss is already
conservatively estimated at more than $40,000,000. The payroll loss alone
is already over $6,000,000 a year!

The customer who quits and says nothing
The insidious thing about this law is that industries do not complain—they sin
pack up and move to another state! They are like the customer who quits and says
nothing—you never know he is dissatisfied nor why — hence have no chance to
make matters right with him. Many large concerns who left or stayed out of Ore­
gon on account of the income tax refused to allow us to use their names because
they did not want to be made to appear as tax dodgers—and yet they could not af­
ford to carry a tax burden in Oregon which they did not need to pay in California or
Washington! There is an old adage which says, Business is sensitive. It goes only
where it is invited and stays only where it is well treated." We cannot afford to AN­
TAGONIZE. enterprises which other states are INVITING!
