According to Wes Hicks, man­

near Vernonia, “the name more
accurately describes the forestry
activities and the public benefits
and uses of our land on which we
have been growing and harvesting
trees for 80 years. We recognize
these forests as an important na­
tional economic and recreational

Taxes are the topic of the town
this week. Seems as though the
appraiser has been around and
everbody’s taxes took a skyward
jump. Just having completed a
deal on a home this week I can't
really claim to be an authority on
the subject but I’m sure going to
learn fast.
It seems, from what I have been
able to gather, that some of the
homes were simply brought uo to
the standard they should have been
all along, even if it was a doubling
of the taxes. Others were apprais­
ed completely out of line. There
seems to have been no consist­
ency.
I don’t have anv answers to the
problem of what to do at »out high­
e r taxes. The thing that does grin«’
me is the way people expect the
government to keep doing more
and more for them and then don't
expect to have to pay for it.
