The state tax commission has made
what seems, at first glance, most com
prehensive report, but falls fiat on the
question of personal property assessment,
the very point on which people are in
terested and need help, to ferret the
thousands of dollars that are covered in
every community. No better measure
has ever been introduced than that of
rele tsing real rstate from assessment, to
the amount of mortgage thereon. This
would unearth thousands of dollars of
notes and mortgages, and place the tax
alton, where it belongs upon those who
can afford to pay it. A bill with such
provisions has been introduced in the
legislature a number of times, but in
every case it has never merged from
the hands of the committee In every
community taxes would be reduced
twenty-five per cent. perhaps, to a ma
jority of tax payers, if personal property,
money and securities paid their just
shares.-Elkhorn Independent.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY l. 1901.

STATE SUPT. L. d. HARVEY has con
ceived the novel idea of sending the
seven normal school institute conductors
through the state inspecting district
schools and addressing rural committees
on school needs. This experiment as
outlined by Superintendent Harvey, is
entirely new. and it's result is awaited
with interest by educators throughout
the country. If successful, as all in
formed of it hope and expect, it will
mark another step in the progressive
movement that has characterized edu-
cational work. The institute conductors
will begin work about the middle of
next month. The plan provides for
about two months work by the con-
ductOrs.

probably he was following the fashion

body knows the story about the little
boy that was covered with gold leaf as
a cherub for some Roman pomp and
how he died in agony few hours
afterward. The poisons manufactured
by his own organisms slew him, to
say nothing Of his suffocation. Burns
involving more than one-third of the

Patronize the Creamery,

Our correspondents all over the
country report that where we'll man
aged cooperative or proprietary cream
cries exist. farmers who have hereto

now sending their cream to the factory,
says The American Agriculturist. This
is as it should be. The time spent in
making butter at home can yield a
larger profit utilized in other ways, es-
pecially when creamery is conven-

success of a creamery to furnish but

Some Requisites For Calf Feeding.

Always keep the calf pens dry and
clean. using plenty of litter. A dirty
pen is conducive to scours. Fer several
calves fed together. fit up narrow stalls
at one side Of the pen and fasten each
calf by Il rope or StanchiOn TO feed
each separately. This will prevent the
stronger calves from getting more than
their share. Keep them fastened or
tied for half an hour after eating to
prevent their sucking each others ears
The pals used for feeding milk should
be thoroughly cleansed and scalded
with boiling water each day.-Ameri-

Causes of Tainted Milk.

Some of the causes of tainted milk
are poor, decayed fodder, dirty water
whether used for drinking or the wash
ing Of utensils; foul air il the COW sta
ole or COWS lying in their manure; lack
Of cleanliness in milking, neglecting to
mir the milk rapidly directly after milk
ing, lack of cleanliness in care of the
milk, from which cause the greater
humber of milk taints arise, and the
mixing of fresh and old milk in the
same cans, and rusty tin pals and cans.

BANK TELLER GOES WRONG.
His Misdoings Cause the Balliston.N.
Y. National Bank to Close.

Balliston, N. Y, Dec. S.-The First
National bank Of this place was closed
today pending an Investigation by a
national bank examiner. IL Is stated
that the closing OF the banks doors fol-
owed the discovery OF Irregularities In
the accounts Of the teller, Charles T..
Fitcham. The bank began business in
1865 Judge j. s. Lamoreaux succeeded
the late George West as president early
in october OF this year and II. J.. Don
ALLISON succeeded 70 the vice presidency
The new executive officers began al
once a thorough investigation OF the
banks affairs and discovered indica-
tlons OF defalcation on the part Of the
teller, Fitchain. The investigation was
pursued until Il was seen that the de-
falcation had begun many years ago
and attained large figures. Bank Ex-
aminers Graham and Van Vranken
we're sent for and yesterday began a
thorough examination. At the close OF
banking hours they reported shortage
OF 100000. The directors then decided
TO close the bank pending an lnvesti-
cation and warrant for Fitcham's ar
