Where Taxes Hurt Ifaybe its sort of second na- ture to kick about taxes and feel that your own particular section is more sadly afflicted than any other, but if Carbon taxpayers will look into it they'll probably find the complaint is not always justified. In Tacoma, Wash., the city tax rate last year, for instance, was 80.14 for each thousand dollars of valuation, while in Lancaster, Fa., it was down to $14.14. But the average rate for all cities in the country was $38.45 on the thousand dollars in 1929, and thats enough to lrmVff a lot of citizens in a lot of communities sit up and take notice. You dont get any more out of living hi a big town than in a little one but it does cost a lot more if you own your own property. And if you rent, its in proportion, for the taxes are passed on by the landlord to the tenant Maybe it would be a good frina to keep these figures pasted in your hat where you can refer to them next time there is occasion to do a little ranting about taxes. Starting the Dam ' Work has officially started on one of tiie greatest projects ever undertaken in this country the construction of the Boulder Dam. The first weeks work saw only a white line of stakes in the desert, marking the route of a new railway to carry supplies to the town that is fast being established at the damsite. But from now on every hour will be a busy one. From all over the country workers are said to be heading for the site of this great construction job. So great is the number that government officials have issued a warning to those contemplating to join the rush. Stay at home, is the advice until your services are asked for. Weather conditions are terrible during the winter months and it would be a poor place to be stranded. Yet that will probably be the fate of hundreds when winter sets 'in. No matter how alluring it may be take Uncle Sams advice and stay away, unless you have a signed contract of employment in your pocket. When Winter Comes This having been an unusually hot and dry summer, nature will make up for it with a long, cold and wet winter, according to popular tradition. Amateur weather forecasters around here have not as yet come forth with their predictions, but the government weather experts are commencing to discuss it, and they do not agree that the old tradition is going to hold good. Says Chief Marvin Of the United States weather bureau : If one thinks that a hot summer should follow a cold winter, the last year has furnished a dissipation of that idea as any rule to go by. The last winter, particularly in the eastern part of the United States, was a mild one, but was followed by a hot summer. In other parts of the country, however, the statement of Marvin does not hold good. Last winter was the severest in twelve years in the middle west and this summer was the hottest for seventeen years. Fact is theories will not work out if the weather Is taken for the entire United States. Maybe the old belief that a long, hard winter follows a hot summer does hold good most of the time. Any rule can fail occasionally and everyone around -- i The Tourists Dollar Oaata the Line Beak dhea Type Twenty-Fiv- 1930 OFFICIAL VOTE OF CARBON COUNTY, NOVEMBER 4, As Canvassed By County Commissioners , Nov. 10s m M The tourists dollar didnt really mean much to Carbon county ten or fifteen years ago. But every year finds it cutting a little wider swath in the local field of business. In fact, within the past few years the tourists dollar has developed into an industry representing two billion dollars a year to say nothing of the part of it that Canada corrals. Already states are entering into competition for it, and ere long it promises to establish a new alignment of industry. Already in some states more money is circulated in a single year than is derived through agriculture or manufacturing. Since the. dollar of the tourist is just as welcome as that from wheat, corn, live stock, dairy products or cotton, the clamor to get it may really be said to have hardly started. Hes worth courting now the American tourist. So dont forget that anything you can say or do to persuade him to come back this way again is a good turn for the whole community. . soHomaB We're Eating More The average Price citizen may not know it, and he may be inclined to dispute it, but he is eating a hundred and fifty pounds more every year than he was in 1920. The increase is made up of sugar, fruits and dairy products. And that increase of a hundred and fifty pounds goes for every person in the United States today. We are eating fewer cereals, particularly com meaL Consumption of sugar thirty years ago averaged sixty-on- e pounds per year capita, now it is about a hundred and five pounds. Fats and oil jumped from thirty-fou- r to forty-fou-r; fruit from a hunto a hundred dred and sixty-nin- e and ninety-twdairy products from eight hundred ud forty to one thousand forty pounds. Consumption of meat has changed very little, ranging from a hun dred and forty-tw- o to a hundred and forty-fiv- e pounds each year, depending on fluctuation hi the prices. These interesting figures are vouched for by foodstuffs division of the United States department of commerce. o; Who Buys Most? If anyone around Price has any doubt as to who holds this countrys purse strings, get hbld of the newest figures on 1930 merchandising now being sent out by the United States. Chamber of Commerce. These estimates declare that women will buy 64 per cent of the neckwear and 75 per cent of the socks worn by men of America in the year 1930. On the same basis it is safe to say they will also buy more shirts for men than food that goes on the table and the things that go on the inside of the home. That doesnt seem to leave the male end of the population much to shop for except his supply of, tobacco, shaving soap and gas for the auto. It also seems to prove beyond question that women are the best buyers in this country, and that they are in no danger of losing their claim to 'that distinction. But no one wants it. otherwise, and since even the worst grouch in the community is willing to admit a woman can make a dollar go farther than a man, who would be foolish enough to want it otherwise. - FOR SALE, WANTED, ETC.
