ASHLAND BUILDING
ACTIVITIES DURING
THE PAST YEAR
(From Thursdays Daily

A retrospective view of building
activities for the year Just passed,
reveals a growth of so per cent over
the year 1920. Reductions in the
prices of building material, hard
ware and labor have been among
the chief factors In this increase.
Ten new residences have been com
pleted and a large number of homes
have been remodeled until they have
the outward appearance Of new
structures.
Among the new residences noted
are those of William Briggs, W. j..
Moore, W. C. Mitchell, Ebert j..
Farlow, z. r. Moody, Mrs. Della Ack-
lin, Rose Brothers, Bed Delsman and
Putnam Brothers. The A. M. Bea-
yer annex and the G.. S. Butler me-
mortal building have been completed
within the last 12 months. A con-
crete creamery building on b street,
erected for J. r. Maxedon, is also
noted.
Two other dwellings were COM
of Putnam Brothers
and Sherman Powell. The Civic I'm
provement club house Is ready for
the plasterers and a number of re-
construction jobs are still iunder
way.
The approximate outlay for new
construction is in the neighborhO0d
OF $4,000, while remodeling out
lays, giving a conservative estimate,
will total $1,000.
The building program for the
present year looks very good. While
the present prices of building mater
ials and builders hardware have
been reduced to some extent In the
past few months, an abnormal de-
cline can not be looked for in the
very near future. Attention for the
present year is being directed to the
construction of cement structures.
owing to the present price of ce-
ment and the stability OF such siruc-
lures as compared with one of wood.
A steady building program which
will surpass that of last year, Is ex-
pected

CHARRED BODY
OF BOY FOUND IN
ESPEE BOX CAR
(From Saturdays Daily

Train 221 was found to be on fire
last night by conductor T. p. Franco
who lives in Ashland at 460 Boule-
ward and was In charge of the train
at the time. In attempting to put
out the fire he was severely burned
on the face and right hand. His
burns were dressed by the company
doctor at Sisson and he brought the
train through to Ashland. When he
stopped his train for investigation,
he found a locked car on fire and
an indication that there were per-
sons in the car.
Upon breaking the car open, three
men were seen to jump out and van

water tank to eXtinguish the flames.
After the fire was out an examina

MUST HAVE NEW
LICENSE PLATES
BY JANUARY 20
(From Thursdays Daily

The lid will not be clamped down
on delinquent applications for the
1922 automobile license plates be-
fore January 20. A letter forwad-
ed by Secretary of State Kozer to
police officials throughout the state
today indicates that this date will
be the earliest on which the automo-
bile registration department will be
able to dig itself out from under the
deluge of applications for license
plates which flooded the department
on the closing days of the old year.
Even with this 20 days of grace
which is being allowed the tardy ap-
plicants before the law governing
the use Of license plates is enforced,
hundreds of motorists will be caught
without the yellow and black plates
of the 1922 season when the time
limit now set has exrlred.
Although several thousand appli-
cations have ben received since the
first of the year, to be added to the
approximately $4,000 which were in
on the appointed time there are still
several thousand of the 10000 auto
mobile owners in Oregon who have
as yet made no move toward secur-
ing their plates for the new year. It
will be to these that the traffic
squad of the secretary OF states de-
partment Of the police officials
throughout the state will direct
their attention when the final day
OF grarce has expired and orders go
forth to round up the dellnquents
on or about January 20.

GAME WARDEN'S
OFFICE SHOWS
$80,488.13 BALANCE
(From Fridays Daily

Belief that more progress in game
protection and propagation has been
experienced since the last regular
session of the legislature when the
commercial and game Interests were
separated, is expressed by State
Game Warden Burghduff, in his an
nual report filed recently with the
state fish and game commission.
That the office of the state game
warden has been a financial success
is shown by the fact that the receipts
exceed the expeditures by $751;
131.40. Adding the balance from
1920 brings the total balance on
hand to $8O,4SS.13.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the report is the table of
statistics showing the arrests made
by game wardens for violation of the
fish and game laws. For the year
there were 605 arrests for game law
violations and so for fish law viola
tions. From this number 92 were
continued for sentence, the fines
to $1S,7S0.
There were 1904 game birds lib
Grated by the commission and there
are now on hand 1894 on the Cor
wallis farm and 2O56 on the Eugene
farm.
One of the activities of the com
mission during the past year was
the salvaging of the fish from the
Columbia river sloughs and the lib
Grating OF them in other waters of
the state.
