In these days there are only; two arithmetical principles ap- | plied to taxes--addition and} multiplication. The tax person | has forgotten how to apply sub- traction or division to the tax | problem. State, county and municipal taxes keep going up. Federal taxes on incomes get an- | other whack at the family budg- | et and then along comes taxes | on luxuries and wearing apparel, | theatre tickets and ice cream | cones. The soft drink parlors nick their customers for more} pennies and the size of the piece of pie goes right on decreasing. | There seems no end and no way | to beat this new game. | Yet there is a way, a perfectly | simple and_ logical way. Curb} the politician. Compel him to} quit creating new office holding | activities. Twenty-five years ago gov- | ernment was comparatively | simple; and candor compels us to say that it was better govern- ment, when there was not so much of it, than the government we are getting now. But the politicians told the people they must be emancipat- ed. They consented and now they are paying for their eman- | cipation. We do not know one thing we are getting that we would not have been better off without; but we do know that we are paying alot more for| needless office holders, and that | despite the increase in wealth | and population taxes per capita are multiplied with every pros- pect that they will multiply some | more, and this increase is in| addition to the extraordinary federal and war taxes. | Commissions, boards and su-} pervision and regulation cost} money. They serve very little} ‘| except to increase the class that | live at the expense of the rest of | ‘lus. If we must have them we, must pay for them. But what} good are they? What do we, the} people, who pay for it all, get} out of it? | | OIL, MOTHER OF MOTION. Every day necessities often | become so common that their, Asan example take sugar | during the war. Until the sup-| ply was cut off the public never | realized that it was one of our main articles of food. Few people think of oil as an absolute necessity, yet if it were not for oil modern civilation | would end. The miner depends on it for light as does the farmer on his out of the way farm. The house- | wife uses it in many different | forms in housekeeping and the) wheels of industry would be} paralyzed without it. It is the life blood of the mighty dynamos generating the world’s electric current, of the engines in our fleets, of our locomotives, air- planes, automobiles, tractors and | of every industry and wheel} that moves. Remove oil from the world to- day and the world would cease | its progress as quickly as if the sun were withdrawn. This country leads the world in oil production and as a result | it also leads in invention and | conveniences of life. The oil prospector and oil dev- | elopment should ke encouraged in every way possible. CANNING INDUSTRY GROW- ING Fruit, vegetable, fish and meat canning is developing into one of the greatest industries in | the west. We have the land and the rivers and the ocean neces- | sary to furnish the raw material and the world is waiting for the canned product. Is it any won- der canneries and preserving plants are going up in all sec- tions? There is plenty of room for Shrewd Lumber Buyers It’s wisdom to be hard headed. - It’s folly to be bull headed. We like to have the hard headed chap who “picks things to pieces” come here, because then we can show him that he actually does get the biggest lumber value for his money. We have proved this conclusively to hundreds of regular customers and that is the reason for our success. Be hard headed and investigate our lumber our service, our prices. Don’t be bull headed and say all lumber is alike and take whatever is offered at any old price.
