With its quota of $s5O,l5O for the
city, it was confidentially expected that
with two or three days work, that this
amount would be subscribed. The fact
is that without the campaign, there has
been subscribed for in the two days
only $175,OO0 worth of bonds.
More than half of this amount has
been taken by investors who call for
bonds in $500 and $1,000 lots. Several
investors have taken $4,000 blocks.
With the bigger investors taking say
100000 Of the amount so far subscrib-
ed, this would leave but $4,000 in Sa-
lem that has been subscribed by the
small investor.
It is thought that several Of the
larger sales win be made early in May
as the bonds do not begin to draw in
tcrest until May 10 the last day on
which bonds may be purchased.

CITY FINANCES ARE
IN SOUND CONDITION
Annual Report Of Treasurer
Shows Indebtedness On
Steady Decline.

Business for the city OF salem as a
corporation is good. That is, while it
has piled up a pretty fair indebted
ness, it is gradually paying this off
and not incurring new debts The city
is assessed at something over $l2,000,-
600 and the indebtedness is about $685.
900. This does not include street inn
provements, as in this instance, the prop
erty assessed for the Improvement is
security for the lien.
The first 1919 quarterly report Of
City Treasurer c. o. Rice, presented to
the city council Monday evening, show
ed that on January !, l9l9, there was
in the city treasury, the sum Of $134,-
6976S. During the first three months
of the year, there had been paid out
73,5Sl.9S. With the several sources of
Income there was left in the city treas
ury March 81, 1919, the sum of $ll5,-
l6l9.45.
The largest amount paid out by City
Treasurer Rice during the Sfirst three
months of this year was $42, 1876 for call.
ling in improvement bonds &C." issued
in 1912 and the paying out of $l2,755 on
interest account. The city indebtedness
will be further reduced when the city
treasurer pays $21,744.16 on improve
ment bonds May 90 Sewer bonds to
the amount of $42 2,sl2.24 will be called
in and paid off this month also.
With more than an assessed valuation
of $l2,OO0,OO0, the city of Salem really
owes $537000 on municipal bonds and
$47,177 on charter act bonds.
According to the records Of Earl Race
city recorder, the city is paying off
$4,000 a year on sewer bonds and $4,000
a year on the second bridge across the
willamette. There is now unpaid sl5,-
900 in bonds against this second bridge
and these are being paid off at the rate
'of $4,000 year. These bonds are due
in 1924.
On the first bridge across the Viii
lamette built in 1889 and which was
swept out couple of years later in the
big flood, there is outstanding bonds
amounting to $4,000. These are not
being refunded and the entire $4,000
will be due in 1920 Although the bridge
was built 30 years ago, no city council
has provided for a sinking fund to pay
off this indebtedness.
1t is estimated by City Recorder
Race, that the city is paying off it's
Indebtedness at the rate Of about $40.
900 year. And this is being done
with a low assessment valuation and
with 121z mill city tax, compared to
IA milsl Of few years ago.

Few Investors Here.

With the option of investing in the
Victory Liberty loan and of not invest
ing, judging from the reports Turmshed
by the four banks of the city, the aver
age investor who might have taken $50
or $10O worth Of bonds has decided to
let the other fellow do it.
In other words, the small investor in
Salem has failed to show any great
amount of patriotism when given the
choice Of taking bonds or of not taking
them. This is the opinion Of officials
who are in charge Of the fifth liberty
loan.

The home garden is profitable, for
one reason, because it saves the cost
of vegetables that otherwise would be
bought. 1t is healthfuI exercise. 1t
furnishes excellent outdoor exercise.
1t provides vegetables that are fresh
er, more palatabIe and better than
many to be had In the market.
The home-garden vegetables are al
ways available, to be had without in
convenience. Therefore, they are like
ly to be used more freely than if trip
to market or even a telephone call
were necessary.
But there is still another particular
in which the home garden confers
great benefit. The boy or girl who is
given part in cultivating a hor,e
garden, who is charged with some of
the responsibilities and put to solve
some Of the problems of cultivation,
acquires in the process spirit of
self-reliance, a knack of making the
means at hand serve the end desired,
that will be valuable throughout the
rest of that boys life in any kind OF
service that may be required. Thus
the home garden is a training school
in personal efficiency.

Franklin County Steers Bring
Up Average for State On Live
stock Market at st. Louis
STOCK SOLD THRU ASSOCIATION
Other Tennessee Counties Are Selling
Livestock in Same Way and Reaping
Part Of Benefits that Should Come
to the State from Such Method&

Tennessee beeves topped the steer
trade in ST. Louis one day in March.
Several cOnsignments arrived from
that state, the best being a drove Of
l,18S-pound $16.55 Shorthorn and An.
gus fed by ]. o. Gill, and shipped
through the Franklin County livestock
association. Mr.. Gill is banker and
farmer, prominent in his part of the
state and a strong advocate of live
stock in connection with farming OPP
erations. He reported he had these
steers on feed for 80 days on a ration
of corn, cottonseed meal, and molasses
feed with sllage. They made an aver.
age gain of pounds daily while in
the lots and in the last 10 days put
on flesh at the rate of pounds daily.
They originated In that county as
feeders and nearly doubled first cost
when they sold here today.
]. l. Kennedy, also of Franklin
county, marketed cattle on the same
day at good figure. Mr.. Kennedy Is
farmer and extensive shipper. He
says stock wintered much better than
it did year ago.
Franklin county was formerly pretty
much devoted to wheat growing but of
late years farmers have gone in more
for corn and livestock and are doing
better by reason of the change. They
raise fine crimson clover in that Sec
ton, as fine as can be found anywhere.

Despite the handicap caused by the
loss of an arm, Mr.. Williams last sea-
son grew thirty-one varieties of vege-
tables in his home garden of slightly
less than one-fifth of an acre He sold
in his neighborhood vegetables worth
1926, in addition to those used by his
family of four persons.
Despite the success in this instance,
the department of agriculture does not
advise home gardeners to strive for a
great variety of crops, but to concen-
trate their efforts ON a few.

HOW.TC.GROW
BETS

Garden beets may be grown In any
good soil, but thrive best on rich,
sandy loan. The seed can be Sown
cbOut the time the last frosts are due,
and the young beets will be ready for
use in four to six weeks. The seed
should be sown in drill with about
eight or ten seed balls to the foot.
1t should be borne in mind that each
seed ball contains from three to six
seeds, and that the beets will require
considerable thinning. The young
heets that are pulled out in thinning
may be used as greens during the
early spring. Where the beets are to
be given hand cultivation entirely, the
rows may be placed as closely as
twelve to fourteen inches apart and
the plants should be thinned to two
to three inches In the row.
A late planting of beets may be
made in June, or as late as August in
some localities, for fall use and for
storage-United States Department of
