THE BUSINESS MEN
HAVE A DUTY

It is regretted that more of
Conaon's business men were not
present at the meeting of the
Commercial Club Wednesday
night when ROAD legislation was
discussed. The proposed John
Day highway is of more i'm
portance to this town than any
thing tha. has ever been Drought
up since Condor became town
and the business men should
realize this and take a proper
interest. The meeting was
thoroughly representative but
in taking up such a plan every
man should add prestige to the
meeting by his presence and
show that he has the welfare of
the town at heart.

estimate how many acres of idle

to the number of vacant lots

tin cans and rubbish generally.
Then calculate the possibilities
of these vacant lots and see what
a little energy would accomplish.
Gardens on these lots will cut
down materially the high cost of
living that is heard discussed on
all sides. Foodstuffs raised on
these lots will yield ms much

TOWN IMPROVEMENT

The question of using idle city
lands for food production is just
now engaging the attention of
the people of England. as it has
already done those of Germany,
and efforts are being made to
conserve this potential source of
wealth. 1t is estimated that in
the city of London alone there
are IA 600 acres of idle land,
capable of predicting annually
$500 worth Of Tcotstufs per acre
