Tax on Good Looks.

An incident has just come to light
which suggests wherein some money
could be made by some deserving
society or anyone else desiring to
take the matter in hand. asst Satur-
day three of our promising young
men, Fred Blackman, Arthur Deni-
son and August Goettsch attended
a hard time dance at Glendale.
Everyone wearing jewelry or other
articles of fnery were fined accord
ing to the value OF the articles worn,
also there was fine payable by those
blessed by good looks. These gentle
men, wearing their working clothes
were exempt from the first tax, but
got caught on the last Being ex-
tremely modest in regard to their
personal charms it has been impos-
sible to find out just how large a
fine was imposed, or which one was

COMMISSIONER CARSON
ON FRUIT PROSPECTS

A. H. Carson, commissioner of
horticulture, hits the nail squarely
on the head in the following COM
munication addressed to the Courier.
Many people are of the opinion that
freezing weather destroys a class of
insects that prey on fruit trees. Mr..
Carson sounds a warning that this
belief is only fallacy.
Editor Courier: The present cold
weather is favorable for fruit produc-
tion next year, keeping the trees dor
mant.
After thirty-five years here as a
fruit grower, have always observed
that when we have a prolonged cold
snap In December and January when
1t does become warm it remains so
during the spring months and kill
ing frosts hardly ever occur during
the blooming period.
utIt Is Dlt wal uluS an SUI {
| should sound, that is that this cold
weather will in no way lessen insect
life. When 1t turns warm the ne
cessity for spraying with the lime
and sulphur compound is necessary
to control scale and other injurious
insects.
"The fruit grower that shoult
omit to spray, believing that the colo
weather will kill off the injurious
insects that prey upon the fruit viii
be sadly disappointed Any entom
ologlst will tell you that insect lif,
can, when in the dormant stage
stand any degree Of cold and b,
ready for activity when it turn
warm. A. II. CARSON,

JOSEPHINE'S VALUATION
SLIGHTLY LOWERED

Assessor Eclus Pollock has just
received notice from the secretary
of state that his return of the taxable
property of Josephine county has
been cut down $4,000. The assess
ed valuation of taxable property as
turned in by the assessor was $S,-
771.179, and the amount equalized
by the State Tax Commissioners Is
sS.677150. The proportion which
the equalized value of taxable prop
erty within the county bears TO the
total amount of taxable property In
all counties in the state is .O124s.
The equalization affects every
county in the state, some being
raised and others lowered. Baker
county assessment was raised over
ss,OOO,OOO, changing the assessed
valuation from ten to sixteen mil
lions. Clatsop county was also
raised from less than nine millions
70 over fifteen millions. The Una
tilla county assessed valuation was
lowered over eight millions. The
total taxable property as turned In
nv the assessors OF the counties ol
the state was s6s4,727,6S1,sO, and
the assessed valuation as equalized
by the State Tax Commission is the
same. the valuations being changed
in the various counties according tt
the Judgment OF the commission.

HILL IS HEADING
FOR ROGUE VALLEY


Continued from Page 1)
which Stevens made from Bend to
Medford, coupled with the activity
OF John Roberts Allen in and about
Medford, and particularly in the pur-
chase of the Pacific & Eastern rail-
road, may indicate what Is on the
cards.
Contracts have been let for the
grading OF the Deschutes line from
the Columbia river south as far as
Bend, Oregon. These contracts are
held by Porter Brothers and the
work Is in progress. Beyond Bend
the course which will be taken by
Hill in entering California has been
largely matter Of conjecture, al
though the impression is gaining
strength that some sort Of connec-
tion with the Western Pacific is a
part OF the plan. The later informa-
ton however. indicates that a line
to the southwest is also in contempla-
tion.
In June last Stevens and party
of Hill engineers came south from
Bend In an automobile by the way
OF the Crater Lake national park
to the Rogue River valley and "a

Southern Pacific between Ashland
and Grants Pass.

Many Years With 53 Sundays.
To the Editor of the Rogue
River Courier.

~ the buiioi VI wv NVb"N
River Courier.
Dear Sir: In last weeks Courier
there appeared an article copied
from an exchange stating that the
year 1910 contains SO Sundays and
that this will not occur again for 11O
years. do not wish to dispute the
statement, but feel bound to make
two important corrections. In the
first place, this year does NOT con-
tain SO Sundays; in the second place,
instead of our having to wait ITO
years for such an occurrence, IL Will
take place next year and eighteen
times more during this century, max
ing twenty-one times in all between
1900 and 1000. This may be easily
verified by any one. Following are
the years of this century containing
an extra Sunday: 1904. 1905, 1911

has been conjectured Hill might

assumption,
