HOW TO REDUCE TAXES.
THE universal cry ia against high
taxes. The cry should not be
against high taxes, but against the
corrupt use of taxes. The question
of high or low taxes ia to some ex
tent governed by the valuation put
upon property from the public treas
ury. Crush the socialistic, paternal
fpirit growing up in this country.
wtether in the form of the pork bar
rel or government ownership of pub
lic utilities. All such unconstitu
tional doctrines and practices are in
creasing the taxes to the breaking
point.
The continued excessive tax bur
dens can be traced to certain abuses:
First: Extravagant, complicated
governments. The office seekers, of
fice holders, and tax eaters have mul
tiplied government machinery to per
petuate themselves in office. If you
would reduce the machinery and
throw out of office the inefficient, rat-
hole hunting office parasites you
would reduce the cost of municipal,
county, state and national govern
ments 30 per cent. Today, you have
about sixty cents of every dollar of
tax money invested in government,
and the other forty cents is repre
sented by waste, fraud, inefficiency
and graft.
The bureaucracy of this country is
curse to good government and a
criminal expense upon the tax-ridden
public. Simplify governmental ma
chinery and put competent, trained,
patriotic men in office, and taxes will
be reduced 30 per cent, within a short
time.
Second: Destroy the spoils system.
Elect or appoint men to office solely
the ground of merit. Then you
will get an honest day's work for
true love of country and a just con
sideration of the trust imposed.
Third: Teach the people they must
support the government and not ex
pect support.
ALL this talk about Pharoah'a curse
killing the powerful Carnarvon,
the man whose power of wealth and
energy succeeded in bringing to light
the grave of old Tutankhamen, may
keep alive old superstition. The
Irishmen may believe in th banshee
and the laparhaun a little longer and
the "coon carry an extra rabbits
foot, but untruth never lasts, though
often it serves a purpose. The dying
of the English Earl was not in vain.
in life he revealed to us a treasure
of knowledge long buried from the
inquiring mind of man, and in his
death he showed the importance of
the little thing. The mouse freed
the lion. Maybe the clerk and the
busy busineas man declines to hear
a message of millions and of mo
ment. If ye have ears, use tnem.

FARM POINTERS
Do not let a berry plant affected
with crown gall of either root or can
form remain in the berry patch. After
removing the Infected crown and
roots the soil may be replaced with
good soil. The disease is caused by
soil-inhabiting bacteria that get into
wounds made for the most part In
the underground parts of the plant.
O. A. C. Experiment Station.
The 200 million bacteria In every
cubic inch of fertile soil are scaven
gers disintegrating the organic mat
ter in the soil and making plant food.
Proper temperature and air condi
tions are necessary for their growth.
Don't forget to cultivate as much as
possible while the moisture and tem
perature conditions are favorable in
order to secure a good stat of fer
tility of the crop. O. A. C. Experi
ment Station.
The first drawn milk from th ud
der is very poor in fat, generally less
thsn one per cent. The last drawn
milk is very rich, often testing from
8 to 10 per cent or even higher. O.
A. C. Experiment Station.
The snnual yield of both milk and
fat by a eow normally increasea from
th first lactation until ah is ma
ture. The maximum yield is usually
reached at 7 to yeara of age. A
dairy cow on the average as a 3 year
old may be expected to produce about
70 per cent; as a 3 year old around
80 per cent, and as a four year old
about 90 per cent of th milk and
butter fat she will produce under
the same treatment when mature. O.
A. C. Experiment Station.
When the intervals of time betw-en
milkings are unequal, cows generally
yield a smaller amount of milk after
the shorter period, but this milk is
slightly richer in fat and total sol
ids. O. A. C. Experiment Station.

Union Pacific to Talk to
Patrons Through
Newspaper
Advertisements
The Union Pacific realizes that the good will of its pa
trons is its greatest asset. It also believes that a success
ful railway is the greatest asset to any region or commun
ity which it serves.
The Union Pacific wants its patrons to feel that the rail
way is intimately interested in their welfare and that the
road is built, equipped and operated especially to serve
their transportation needs.
The railway, like any other business, has its problems,
some of which are not always thoroughly understood by
the public. For that reason, the Union Pacific will pre
sent certain of these problems from time to time, and
endeavor to explain them, using only such statistics as
are readily understood.
Some of the topics suggested are :
The Misunderstood Railroad Earning Guaranty.
New Equipment and Capital Improvements for the
Union Pacific.
What the Union Pacific Pays in Taxes.
The Railroad and the Farm.
Preventing Accidents at Grade Crossings.
Who Owns the Union Pacific?
Expediting the Movement of Freight Cars.
The Facts About Freight Rates.
Where the Union Pacific Dollar Goes.
Railroads Safe to Ride On, Unsafe to Walk On.
It is planned to publish one of these short talks in the
form of an advertisement about the first of each month
in newspapers along the Union Pacific Lines. It is hoped
that this method will tend to clarify some of the miscon
ceptions about railway operation, and that it will serve
to inform the public of the constructive things the Union
Pacific is doing.
Constructive suggestions will be welcomed.

An Anchor to
Windward
AILORS know the wisdom of
having an anchor to wind-
ward. That precaution has
prevented many a disaster.
To have a money surplus capital in
reserve is simply throwing an anchor
to windward. It will prevent your
drifting on to the rocks of dependence
and want.
The time to build up a reserve, a safe
guard for future, is now when you are
strong and able to work and sacrifice.
You don't know about the future, but
you do know that now, today, you are
able to earn and save. Make the most
of your present opportunity and pre
pare yourself for greater ones later on.
