ECONOMY NEWS

  • In July, Benton County’s unemployment rate was 4% after losing 130 jobs from June and 190 fewer nonfarm jobs from last July, while Oregon’s overall rate rose to a record 5% since July 2021. State data showed that financial, professional and health care sectors lost many jobs even though construction and transportation gained, and Intel laid off 2,400 workers in July — a sign of wider manufacturing cuts — as job losses continued.  The Corvallis Advocate

SPORTS NEWS

  • Philomath High’s coach Alex Firth is readying the Warriors for a new football season after last year’s playoff win. The team will open on Friday against Stayton—using returning players and new talent to improve their game when the weather turns.  Philomath News
