Houses Are Scarce,

Houses for rent in Heppner were
never as scarce as at the present time.
In fact, right today there is not va
cant house in the town. We know OF
one man who has been striving stead
lily for three weeks to secure a house
for himself and family during the
winter. He has not succeeded yet
in getting located. If this condition
lasts for month or more, the situa-
tion will be hard one to deal with.
From present indications, many peo-
pie will pass the winter in tents here
if some provision is not made for
proper housing between now and win
ter.

IMMENSE TOBACCO TAX

WINSTONS SALEM. July internal
revenue taxes paid to the United States
in this district OF North Carolina on to-
bacco alone in the month of June
amounted TO s".I3l.92tSa and for the
fscal year ending June 80, the amount
paid in was s2o.y0a,5ol This was an
increase over the preceding fiscal year
OF ss,io2.25I35 All OF this tax was
paid in the purchase OF stamps to go
on chewing and smoking tobacco and
cigarettes. the most Of which was
paid hy factories operating in this city.
These figures. showing as they do,
the immensely of the tobacco industry
in winston Salem are surprising to
the citizens who arc not engaged in
the tobacco trade either as manufac-
turers or leaf dealers. The factories
here that put out smoking tobaccos
and cigarettes are increasing their
business by leaps and bounds, while
the manufacturers OF chewing tobac-
cos are holding their own. with some
increase in the volume OF business.
