HINTS FOR THE
SHEEP BREEDER

| invested In a small flock of pure
bred CheviOt sheep five years ago.
They were somewhat run down and
very poor in flesh, but had good blood
from the best strains In the country.
Two years ago bought still another
flock. have given them personal at
tention and the best of care have
disposed of all the poor ones. | now
have a splendid bunch. Last year es-
pecially they gave me some very gratl-
flying returns. They are a very hand

] get great pleasure as we'll as profit In
caring for them. | am now wintering

am feeding alfalfa and clover hay
and bean tops for roughage. | also
give them grain ration once u day
consisting Of whole oats. bran and oil
meal. They were fed pumpkins In the
late fall. | also feed turnips, small po-
tatoeS or carrots once or twice a week.
] think some sort of root crop is very
beneficial. and find my sheep do ,ex-
cellently well when fed along these
lines. This is especially true when the
ewes are sucking their lambs. At this
time of the year 1t Is impossible, Of
course, to have grass. and some succu-
lent feed. like roots Of some sort. is
very necessary.

GOOD condition if they are infested
with ticks. / usually dip my sheep as
late in the fall as possible. select a
warm sunshiny day for the work. |
also dip them a second time In the
spring soon after shearing. give
close attention to my ewes at lambing
time. AS soon as they have had their
lambs they are separated from the rest
Of the flock and kept in small pen by
themselves until the lambs are three or
four days old. Cheviot ewes usually
give very little or no trouble, as they
make good mothers, producing strong
lambs and supplying an abundant yield

ATTORNEY GENERAL ELLIS
Suggests Safeguard Against State
Extravaqance.

Suggests Safeguard Against State
Extravaganza.
Danger to state in securing all its
revenue from excise or privilege taxes,
was shown by Attorney General Wade
H. Ellis, in an address before the
Commercial club on Taxation" He
argued that the people would, to a
large extent, lose their touch with the
state government, if they made no di-
rect contribution to it's support
through the medium of taxes.
To avoid the danger the speaker
suggested that the Legislature levy an
annual assessment against the coun-
ties equal to about 10 per cent of the
cost of operating the state govern
ment. This assessment to be divided
in proportion to the amount of taxes
raised by each county for county pur-
poses. The attorney general suggest
ed that this would serve all practical
results of entirely separating state
from local taxation, while at the same
time it has many commendable fea-
lures of it's own.

Wash Lace In Milk.

An almost infallible method of
cleansing lace which has been much
stained through age or other causes,
says writer in Good Housekeeping,
is to stew 1t In milk. Place the lace in
jar and cover with milk. Then set
the jar in saucepan of water, after
the manner of cooking beef tea. An
hour or two are usually sufficient. The
water in the saucepan will boil, but
not so the milk. BY allowing the milk
TO boil the stains would be more firmly
fixed than ever. The writer tells of
an old piece of brussels which had
been lying ON a fan for twenty years
and was marked with brown stripes.
All ordinary treatment had failed to
remove the stains, but the lace came
out of the hot milk treatment as white
as snow and entirely uninjuPed.

= TAXATION REVISION
: IN MANY STATES
qOHO4O4Ope4O4O4O4040AOq(

Bills to create tax commissions are
pending before the general assembly
of the following states: Alabama,
Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Min
nesota, Oregon and Wyoming. In
some of the states these bills have
been made laws, and the probability
is that bills will be enacted by ma
jority of the states, if not by all of
them. This shows conclusively that
the problem of how to improve the
state and local taxation system is a
question of vital and urgent impor-
tance in nearly every state in the
Union.
Principles Of taxation, like all eco
nomic principles, are universal in
their application Work done in one
state may be made useful in all other
states, BY making investigations and
guiding discussion on similar lines,
and then comparing results, the peo-
pie in each state can help all other
states and be helped by what all other
states accomplish.
