WHY NOT INCORPORATE THE TWO TOWNS?
Within the past few weeks homes in Vernonia have re
ceived circulars, or handbills as you may wish to call them,
from a business firm in Buxton. The circulars have made their
appearance on porches regularly each week to tell thote who
read them that prices and items in that store can not be beat
en. Whether those prices and items can be found in Vernonia
stores would be difficult to determine unless considerable time
was devoted to a comparison. But that is not the intent here.
The appearance if the circulars brings to mind a suggestion,
highly impractical it is true, which would make the distribu
tion acceptable. Buxton is a community in itself, removed from
Vernonia by approximately 15 miles and located in another
county. To make the circular distribution acceptable, Buxton
should become an incorporated part of Vernonia, should pay
taxes here, and should support community enterprise.
On the other hand Vernonia merchants might retaliate by
a similar use of handbills in Buxton and might go even further
by offering free bus service to residents of that community so
they might do their trading here.
OURS IS A SORDID WORLD
Ours is a sordid world even on this side of the ocean. Some
of those on the other side have their homes and families, their
dearest possessions wrested from them. But when a kindly,
elderly lady, whose biggest pleasure in life is her flowers which
she, with eyes almost without sight and with a back bent with
age and deformity, has planted and carefully tended, has gor
geous tulips deliberately cut with a knife and gathered by a
thief’s hands, this world is a sordid one. Acts like that leave
a very bad taste. It is hard to believe that in this town, one
as sweet and kindly as Grandma Sitts should be the victim
of such inconsiderate thieving. Flowers are Grandma Sitts’ Life.
A TRIP TO THE EXPERIMENT STATION
Every year a trip is arranged so that farmers may view
the work being done by the Clatsop county experiment station
to learn new developments from the work being carried on
there. Those visits have always proved valuable in the past and
the visit this year will undoubtedly be profitable. One of the
things to be seen this year will be a variety of legumes and
grasses suitable for both pasture and hay.

NEW ASSESSING SYSTEM
DOES JOB—
The new “write your own ticket”
method of obtaining assessment of ’
personal property inaugurated by ’
Columbia county this year has i
worked so well that listing of per
sonal property will be virtually
completed by next week, a good
3% months ahead of previous years,
Assessor Fred Watkins said recent

Of the 2700 blanks mailed out
to county property holders, a little
more than 2,000 have been filled
out and returned, while the activi
ties of men now in the field as
sessing real estate will probably
result in the return of most of
the remainder, Mr. Watkins said.
