1t is not generally known that all travelling
men who carry side lines or who sell goods for |
various firms upon commission are subject to
the revenue tax penalties, and II the depart |
ment decides to move against them they will |
be required to pay the $50 year to Uncle |
Sam. .If these taxes were not paid before |
August 1, an added penalty OF so per cent may |
be imposed.
Prof. A. j. Cook, of Claremont, California, ar |
rived in this city Tuesday night from Washing |
ton, ID. c., where he has been the guest OF his |
daughter, Mrs. Catherine Briggs. He is the |
guest Of his son, A. b. Cook, and of other rela |
tives south of the city. Mr.. Cook formerly |
resided south of this city but has not been here |
for several years. For many years he held the |
chair Of entomology in the state Agricultural |
college. For several years past however, he |
has been professor OF biology at the California |
state agricultural college and is also In general
charge Of the farmers institute throughout the |
state. This latter work is, however, as he |
humorously puts it, his recreation, and is quite
outside his college work. The college itself is |
growing and Prof. Cooks department has just |
been favored with fine new laboratory which |
makes his work much pleasanter than before.
