EXPENSES FOR COUNTY
FOR THE YEAR 1914

The taxpayers OF Josephine county
will be called upon this year TO con-
tribute approximately s212, 900 toward
the running expenses OF state, county
and school districts. This amount
is some 2,O0O in excess of the taxes
OF last years levy, but it does not
mean that the rate of taxation will be
materially larger, as it is expected
that the increase OF taxable property
and OF yaiues within the county will
care for the larger amount with about
the same levy.
The state is asking Josephine for
four times the cash demanded last
year, the appropriations made by the
last legislature having to be provided
for. A telegram received by the
county clerk from the tax commission
stated that the state levy would have
to be about Quadrupled, though the
definite amount has not yet been an
nounced. Last year the county con-
tributed $4,000 to the state. The
budget prepared by the county court
carries items totaling s126.455, to
which must be added $4,000 school
tax and a probable state tax of s56,-
600, making the total of S212,455.
The county budget shows a slight
increase over that of last year, the
appropriation for widows pensions
adding $4,000 to the total. The gen.
eral election will also add to the ex-
pense, and slight raises are made in
the allowances for the county super
intendent's office, treasurer's office.
and that of sheriff. the legislature
having made salary increases in these
instances The total of the budget
this year is $126,455, as against
$122,6S1 for last year, the items be-

catalogues.
During the past year trials have
been made at Green Acres to de-

that what San Diego has already done
in its work OF making an exposition Is
considered by many to be marvellous:

Recent news from the exposition

also well under way. The building
which will house the exhibit of the
southern California counties. near the
east entrance to the grounds, is hay-
ing its site prepared by the contractor.
and work on sites for half a dozen
other buildings Is being carried on so
that construction work can begin
within the next three or four weeks
1T should be remembered also that
some buildings are already finished,
particularly the administrator build
Ting where all the official stair are
housed and the emergency hospital
building. which will not only be pre-

occur during the continuance of the

0as entirely novel material renders Il
quite distinct e. Happily for lovers OF
the beautiful material, broadcloth has
come into its own and is being much
exploited. An extremely beautiful visit
ing costume is made of that material in the
smoke gray that is so much liked this
season. The coat collar and cuffs are
trimmed with narrow lands of skunk and
the revers and the vest IRE of ribbed silk
In a wonderful shade of red that suggests
coral yet is not exactly that, while their
edges are finished with an oriental en-
broidery in wool threads that is delight.
The beautiful color against the back
ground of quiet toned broadcloth makes
wonderful effect and, for the earlier seGson
at least, the trimming of fur is practical
as well as smart. Enveloping scarfs often
are too warm for comfort until mid-winter.
These fur-trimmed costumes are ad-
mirable from every point of view. Bands
of almost every known skin are to be
noted used in such ways and the simplest
are employed by the greatest dressmakers
quite as well as the most costly. Suitings
and trimmings appear to know almost no
limit of variety. Among the extreme
novelties is silk covert cloth and some of
the handsomest costumes sent over by M.
Worth are made of that material with
trimming of fur. The pretty, soft squirrel,
or petit girls" as our French cousins call
it, is to be called into requisition for trim
ming as we'll as the more costly skins and
it seems especially well adapted to the
younger contingent. A very beautiful
coat adapted to afternoon or carriage
wear is made of basket cloth in a really
delicious shade of coral with turban to
match. The collar and cuffs of the coat
are of the gray squirrel. The turban is
bound with the fur and trimmed with two
bands round the high crown while at the
left side is a simple bunch of maiden hair
fern. The coat is loose and ample, easy
to slip on and off, and one can fancy a
fresh young face a dream of beauty so
framed. Women who have found the

TOR dinner and evening wear, really

there seems hardly any other word
adequate to express their beauty. Bro
caded velvets and silver and gold embroid-
cred satins greet one at every turn while
an abundance of lace is used and the gold
and silver trimmings are marvelously
beautiful. 1t is a season of soft, graceful
effects. The "raggedy" idea is con-
stantly appearing and, at its best, it
means very charming results. Even
simple indoor gowns will be made with
trains, although they may be short ones,

rightly handled, for we are seeing a very
generous use of rich oriental effects and

become garish and out of taste. The
season Is one of many possibilities and it
behooves each of us to choose our gar
ments with care. Fashion provides the
best examples and, when such are offered,
it Is surely needless to follow the bad.
Embroideries of many kinds are being
used and many of them are distinctly
novel while, not infrequently, really
superb effects are obtained by extremely
simple means. In notable autumn
