Kaiser Says Rural
Mail Boxes 0. K.

Postmaster e. j. Kaiser informs
the Tidings that the local publication
of the order of the postoffice depart
ment that all mail boxes on the rural
route must be located on the right
hand side of the road to the driver
was premature as far as Ashland is
concerned. Postmaster Kaiser went
over the rural route with Carrier j..
H. Doran, last Saturday, and investi-
gated the location of the boxes. No
action is desired by the local post
master and carrier until either a
written order from the postmaster
or verbal order from the carrier is
delivered to the patrons of boxes con-
cerned.

spring than in the fall. Therefore,
when we buy our feeders in the fall
we must not pay fat cattle prices for
them, but must get them for at least
a cent pound less than beef prices.
If we can not do this, we had better
be careful about feeding so many.
You know there are many ways Of
making money out of cattle, and once
in while the proper way is by letting
them alone.

Peoples Forum
For the Boys and Girls.

Salem, Ore, Jan. %, 1917.
To the Editor: The city is COM
peting with the farm for young peo-
pie of Oregon. Unless farm life is
made more interesting and attractive
the lure of the bright lights will con-
tinue to draw more and more of the
boys and girls of our state away from
the wholesome country into the sor-
did congestion of the metropolis.
To help make agriculture more inr
teresting to young people, and farm
life more attractive, there have been
installed in many schools courses in
agriculture, opening the mind to
knowledge which transforms mere
drudgery into enthusiasm.
Our Agricultural College, through
it's extension courses and the work
of the county agriculturists, has been
cooperating with the state superin-
tendent of public instruction and the
local school authorities to popularize
scientific farming knowledge. While
this educational work has resulted in
better crops and more profits, that
is less important than what it does
for the young people.
This work is sustained by state ap-
preparations. One of these appropri-
ations has been cut out; the others
are in jeopardy. The fathers and
mothers of Oregon should make it
known to their legislators that this
work should not be sacrificed so long
as it is possible to economic, and
these agricultural education items
will be eliminated unless legislators
learn that these expenditures are Of
great benefit to the boys and girls of
the state. G. G. CHAPMAN.

Outline Complete
Good Roads Code

A complete code for future road
construction in this state has been
prepared by the Oregon Good Roads
committee and is being threshed out
in the legislature at Salem this week.
The code in substance will provide
for onc-half mill tax for state road

Provide for a state hikhway com
mission of three members, with the
state engineer acting ex-officio as
one of the members, and the other
two members to be non-salaried and
appointed by the governor on rec
concentrations submitted by the Ore
gon Good Roads committee. The
committee will submit a number of
recommendation for the executive to
choose from.
The highway commission will have
power to appoint assistants, includ-
ing an expert engineer, or compe-
tent road. builder, as it sees fit. The
work of the commission will be con-
fined to state roads and roads may
be added by law or the commission
to the present highways as now map
ped.
The bill will create a county engi-
neer for each county, to be employed
by the county court or the county
court may employ roadmaster in
stead of an engineer, as it sees fit,
this power to be similar to that vest
ed in the highway commission.
Provision is made for a map of
county roads for each county, to be
approved by the highway commission,
these roads to be we'll Travelled thor
oughfares with due regard paid to
their leading to market centers.
The bill will abolish the office of
road supervisor, and in lieu Of the
supervisor system establishes an en-
tirely new one for handling road dis

an annual meeting of the electors
in every road district to name three
trustees, who are to serve without
compensation whatsoever, and to

The bill also allows the levying of
an annual district tax of not to ex-
ceed 10 mills for work on district
roads, this money to be expended by
the three trustees.
County roads will be worked out
of general levy not to exceed 7
mills, to be expended by the court
under the direction of the engineer
or roadmaster. The bill does away
with the present apportionment of
road funds, which includes a levy
Of 10 mills, 80 per cent of which
is to go to the county and 70 per
cent to the districts, based on their
assessed valuation.

teams from all parts of the state at

state divided into districts and the
best team from each district attend.

decide to hold the tournament this
year and If such is the case the To-
cal team will leave the first of the
next week.

of the week was made with 30
pounds of rye heads carrying three
ounces of strychnine. This poison re-
suited in killing TAI jackrabbits in
spite of the fact that a light snow
fell and covered the poison. Since
November the biological survey has
killed about 5000 rabbits on the
