When the co-operatlvo en terprise was undertaken last spring the farmers were paid 67 V4 cents a pound. An addition dividend of $1.

TAXES DURING CIVIL WAR PREVENTING DAMAGE TO EGGS IN TRANSIT The bureau of chemistry, through the food research laboratory, has been assisting In reducing the damage to eggs in transit by giving practical demonstrations at shipping point in loading cars of egg or mixed egg and dressed poultry. Much of the damage 1 directly due to faulty methods of packing egg In cases and atowing the cases In the car. Four meetings held recently in Iowa were attended by over 100 practical shippers who send cars weekly, at least, to eastern markets and who expressed great interest In the methods which the department has worked out for the conservation ot this valuable foodstuff. They and many others have found the depart ment's folder, "How to Load Cars of Eggs," of assistance. Copies of this folder can be had by writing to the Bureau of Chemistry, United State Department of Agriculture, Wash ington, D. C. BUDGET (Estimated Expenditures) 1.

In 1864 this had been increased to a rute of 5 ppr cent on Incomes bptween $600 and $5000; 7 per cent between $5000 and $10,000 and 10 per cent on incomes over $10,000. There were few great incomes then, hut there was relatively less revenue to raise. Uncle Sam In the present war is Hpending every two months a sum equal to the total cost of the four years of civil war. There were rt a nip taxes for almost every con ceivable kind of husliiPRs transaction, while practically all products were taxed. Any drafted man could escape service by producing a substitute, or by paying $300, another form of revenue.
