REGORM IN TAXATION.

There is crying need in Oregon
for a reform in the methods of the
assessment and collection of taxes.
The laws upon the statute books
were enacted when the common
wealth was young, when different
conditions existed among its people
and when the matter of taxation
had not become so burdensome as
it now has.
The laws upon the assessment of
taxes could be reformed by the
adoption of the precinct assessor
system, as is already in force in
many of the states. The advaut-
ages of this system are many, among
the principal ones of which are
uniformity of valuation, the finding
and assessing or all of the personal
property, and the absolute impossi-
bility of the escape of any real
property from taxation.
In the matter of the collection of
taxes there is great room for re-
form. Under the present laws the
tax rolls of a county are turned
over to the sheriff some time in
February, and are supposed to be
turned in delinquent on the first
Monday in April, giving anywhere
from thirty 10 sixty days for the
collections on the tax rolls. These
collections come at time of the
year when the people are the least
able to pay them, and as a conse-
,quence, if the rolls were turned in
delinquent as by law contemplated,
there would be large portion of
the taxes in every county in the
state turned in delinquent. 1t
would simply be impossible to col
lect them in the time allowed by
law.
A feform in this matter could be
brought about very easily. In the
first place taxes should be made
7rAyable in two installments. This
would have the effect to m AXE them
easier paid and to make a much
closer collection. Taxes are sup
posed to be for the current expenses
of the county and state, and it
would work no hardship upon
either county or state to have those
expenses paid in insta!lments.
One half of the taxes should be
due and payable on the first of May
OF each year, and that half should
become delinquent on TIE first day
of July. The sheriff could then
close his account at that time on
the first halt of the roll. After the
first of July there shoSiCbe pen
atty of 8 per cent, or whatever the
legal rate of interest is, upon the
delinquent fist half of taxes. The
second half of the taxes should be-
come due on the first day of No
vember of each year, and should
become delinquent on the last day
"of December. Then whatever
property remained on the rolls de-
linqueut should be sold for the
delinquent taxes. This sale should
he mandatory, and not at the dis
erection of the county court, sheriff,
roi other person. After sale a Ger.
tihcate shonld have about the same
properties that 1t now has.

. The Dull Darwin.

Since the days of Sir Isaac Newton
there has not arisen greater man Of
science than Charles Darwin, and yet
he was considered by his father aud
schoolmasters as ~ very ordinary boy.
rather below the common standard in
intellect "To my deep mortified
tion," he tells us, my father once
said to me: You care for nothing but
shooting, dogs end rat~catching, and
you will be q disgrace to yourself and
all your family"
Young Darwin hail "strong and di.
versiAed tastes" So hos many q boy
who is considered dull and stupid be-
cause his tastes do not coincide with
those Of his companions, or are not
Of the kind that his parents and teach.
ers consider most profitable. Tho
boy Darwin was called "Gas" because,
with lis brother, ho got up small
chemical laboratory in the tool house
Of the school garden, and spent his
leisure hours there making gases add
compounds, instead Of joining the
boys in their games. he was also
publicly rebuked by the head master
for wasting his time ION such useless
subjects. Darwin the philosopher
has taught us that evolution is a slow
process, and his teaching was exem-
pliaed in Darwinthe boy.-Chambers's

Farm and Garden Notes,

Fowls do not wear overcoats.
Only little crack or nail-hole-
but?
Only small head roosting near said
little crack or nail-hole-but?
Only littlo cold contracted from
the little draught-but? It's roup.
Clear, cold water is great thing in
butter making, but hot water is quite
as essential.
The pigs will, if given the oppor.
tunity, do much cleaning where
threshing was done out doors; SO will
the chickens, and without tearing the
ground up SO much.
Let those who are building up their
locks and herds not neglect to head
them with the best animals obtainable.
These can be bought right, while
scrubs ore dear at any price.
When it comes to quality, there is
far less difference in the best butter
made by deep aud shallow setting and
by centrifugal separating than dairy
men were formerly led to suppose.
A ton of butter taken from the farm
removes scarcely any fertility, while q
ton Of wheat removes about $3.50
worth and q ton of corn about IS
worth. Surely, the dairy farm should
improve.
Men who have made great records
in any department Of live stock, have
first learned how to handle the stock
for best results and then got the ami
mails that were built for that kind, of
business.
All that farmer hos to do to in
augarate system Of improvement in
his poultry is to kill off every scrub
cock and replace them with thorough
breds; next season they will be half
breeds, long step ahead.
. If young man is thinking of being
O breeder of any improved breeds Of
live stock, and he has not learned Of a
successful father, he better put in a
year for some man who has mastered
the business, rather than start without
that experience.
Compared with well-rotted barn ma
nure, there ore 4S.60 pounds Of phos'
phoric acid in hen manure to six in
barn manure, forty-one pounds Of pot
ash to ten in barn manure. The analy.
sis is based on a ton each of hen and
barn-yard manures.
There is no good reason why the
family flock Of poultry on every farm
in the land should not be graded up to
high quality by crossing with pure
bred males; at this season OF the year
thousands Of pure bred cockerels are
for sale at reasonable figures.

LOW practlced, the cream will all be
at the top as soon as the temperature
stops falling. 1t will, if the tempera-
ture is run down to forty-6ve degrees
or below. The more rapid the COOL
ing the more rapid the separation. It
IS not we'll to go below freezing.
1t is best to remove the cream
while the milk is sweet, so that the
milk con be fed sweet to the pigs or
calves. No good dairyman favors let
ting the milk more than slightly be-.
gin to change before skimming. To
let the milk Topper is positively bad,
as it renders it impossible to remove
the cream without taking too much
Gaseous matter with it. When cream
is added, thoroughly stir and mix it
with the mass. Add no cream for
twelve hours before churning, as it
will not ripcn and churn, and will
therefore remain in the buttermilk.
The cream should be churned as
soon as it becomes slightly acid. If
sourinlg goes beyond this, the acid be.
gins to cut and waste the butter fats.
Some, however, let the cream go so far
as to even Topper. This gives o posi-.
tive lactic-acid flavor to the butter,
which many like, while the extra
amount of caseine retained in the but.
ter makes up in weight for the loss of
some of the finer fats.
It was claimed by the elder
Voelcker, chemist of the Royal Agri.
cultural Society Of England, and by
the late Professor L. B. Arnold, that
the 'tinest-hayored and longest-keep-
ing butter is churned from sweet
cream andis free from Gaseous matter;
while some claim that such butter is
insipid in favor and does not keep
we'll.
But sweep cream must be ripened
by oxidizing before churning, and ex-
perimenters say that it must be
churned at lower temperature than
sour cream in order to secure the best
yield. The best temperature in
which to ripen cream is about sixty
degrees. It should be kept cool, not
below forty degrees, and the tempera-
ture be slowly raised to the desired
point of ripening and churning.
The oxidation requires shallow SET
ting or some other method of expos
ing the cream to the atmosphere. In
oil deep setting, souring the cream
becomes necessary to develop flavor,
as the oxidation is only partial.
The natural butter favor, developed
by oxidation, is milder than tho
lactic-acid developed by souring.
Hence it is that many consumers pre-.
fer the latter, which they ore used to,
as nearly all the butter is made from
sour cream.
The contradictory opinions in re-
gard to sweet-cream butter appear to
come from different ways in which the
cream is handled, only few knowing
how to do it. But if one only makes
good sweet-cream butter it demon.
