Valuation Of Personal Property
Varies Too Greatly.

Varies Too Greatly.
According to valuations made the
present year, the minimum value Of
a horse ranges from 81 in Morris
county to $50 in Mcpherson county.
The minimum value OF cattle ranges
81 in Rocks county to SO in
Riley county and the maximum varies
from IS in Ottawa county to $66 in
Elk county. The minimum assess
ment OF gold watches ranges from 81
in Stevens county to 500 in Cowley
county and the maximum from $40 in
Butler county to 500 in Lyon conn.
ty. The minimum value Of piano.
fortes ranges from % in Rocks coun-
~ to 800 in Doniphan county and
the maximum from $40 in Gray coun.
ty to $500 in Chautauqua county.
These are examples Of inequalities
which are to be found in every article
Of taxable property and they only
family indicate the unfairness Of the
present Kansas way. 1t is to be
hoped that the new tax law will
change things.

NAY BE BUTTER COMBINE.
G. Il. Pattison May Head a 20 Mil
lion Dollar Corporation.

Topeka Capital: In spite Of efforts
to keep the matter secret it has leaked
out that plans have been on foot Tor
some time for a consolidation OF
creamery interests OF the United
States which will put butter and the
by.products OF milk in the control OF
single heavily capitalized corpora
ton.
If the company is formed it will be
due to the efforts OF the secretary ana
treasurer Of the Continental Cream
er, company of Topeka-Chas, II.
Pattison.
Mr.. Pattison returned yesterday
from New York city, where be went
last September for the purpose OF in
teresting capital in the enterprise
He has been there ever since, with |
the exception OF ten days or so' when
be returned to Topeka to look after
local business matters that needed
attention.
Those interested in the proposed
merger at this end Of the line have
very little to say, and explain that as
yet the plans are in an embryonic
state; that the matter is under consld'
Grafton by New York capitalists and
that the details have not yet been
worked out.
From what can be learned it may
be accepted as certain that the cor
poration will soon be in shape to 40
business, and that it will play an im'
portant part in the creamery world
Of the nation as the Continental
Creamery company does in Kansas.
To a reporter Of the Capital yester-
day Mr.. Pattison said;
III the corporation is formed, it
will have behind it some Of the strong
est financial names in the United
States. The probability is that Kan
sas men will be prominently connect
ed with it.
Headquarters are to be established
for New York and it may be that the
organization will be in running order
within the next sixty days.
1.-THE primary object will be to de-
velop the utilization Of the by prod
ucts Of milk, such as casein, milk
albumen and sugar Of milk. The but
ter business will be secondary to these
other products.
"The Continental Creamery COM
psny has as yet no connection with
the proposed corporation.
Nothing is definitely concluded
regarding the organization, but there
is a probability Of its going through"
In spite Of the reticence with which
thUse concerned speak in the matter
it is understood that the probability
Of the formation is very strong and
that practically all the essential prob
lens Of the organization have been
settled.
Casein, one Of The by-products OF
milk referred to by Mr.. Pattisop, is
used in the manufacture Of paint; and
some idea Of the Importance OF the
deal may be gained from the state
ment that the understanding is the
formation of the corporation will give
it the control Of the largest paint
mandatory in the world, situated in
one Of the New England states.
Regarding the capitalization, moth
ing is given out further than an init
nation that it may be somewhere be-
tween 10 and 20 million dollars.
NOT A FAIR DEAL.
