EQUALlZATIoN.,
Stark County Taxes Are
Boosted by State Board

Bismarck Tribune: There. will be no
assessment of property in the state at
its real value this year and probably not
until the legislature amends the tax laws
of the state to accord with a new system
that will permit an equalization at real
value. The state board of equalization
met yesterday and began upon its work.
Governor Burke presided at the meeting
and called attention to the provision OF
the law calling for the assessment of the
property at its true value. At the same
time, he said, the laws 81 the state and
conditions surrounding the matter of the
assessment made such a proposition i'm
practicable at this time. This view Of
the matter had been taken by other
members of the board, who realized that
the tax laws of the state must be
amended before 50 radical a change
would be possible. NJ
The matter of the real estate assess
ment was first taken up by the board,
and the equalization, except for the ad-
iustment Of values as between counties,
left. values about as returned by the
county boards. The figures of increase
anddecrease were as follows: -

Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. 14.-Prof.
Joseph H. Drake of the law.-depart-

that he would favor electing Roose-

ents at first took the statement as a
joke. but it was reiterated and Prof
Drake asserted that 1t was given with
all seriousness and sincerity.
The nomination of the president to
the throne, of the United States came
after a discussion Of the corporation
problem in the school. Prof. Drake
declared that although an attack upon
vested interests had been attended
with many DAM. rs to the prosperity

Professor Drake said that election
to the presidency and the maintenance
Of the office under the present system
Is attended with too many political
complications and evils, and for this
reason he advocated the burning Of all
bridges and the giving Of a free hand
to Theodore Roosevelt for the solution
Of the corporation menace. He de-
clared that it is one of the follies of
the nation to suppose that the present
Industrial efficiency can be maintains
ed without the organization of great
corporations. Their destruction would
mean the ruin of the nation, and the
solution, he said, rests IN efficient
control and regulation by the govern
rnent.

CLOTHES FOR BABY.


There was a time. and It wasn't so
long ago, that there was not nearly so
much time spent on babies clothes as
there is now. Nothing is so sweet and
dainty or so deliciously fascinating to
sew on as tiny little garments of soft,
fine material.
There should not be much trimming
on babies clothes, as it makes them
too hard to launder and handle if
there are quantities of laces and en-
broideries for trimming. The quaint
est and prettiest trimmings for dresses
and pettticoats are hemstitcning, ia
goting, feather stitching, and little
hand embroidery and fine lace. A few
simple rules follow about cutting and
making these tiny garments and the
correct measurements and materials
will be welcome to some Young and
inexperienced mothers.
The long white petticoats are made
on waists of longcloth. These waists
are cut I'm one piece and this makes
but two seams necessary, and these
are the two shoulder seams. The neck
and armholes should be finished with
an eighth of an inch hem, which may
be featherstitched or scalloped
The skirt is gathered and joined to
the waist with an inch wide facing
Trim the bottom of the skirt with a
ruffle. plain or embroidered, or with
frillfng. 1t may also simply be finished
with a hem and tiny pin tucks.
The flannel petticoats may be made
In the same style, though the princess
style is pretty. A princess model is
cut in two pieces with no sleeves, and
a low neck, and the back and front
art cut alike.
It seams under the arms and but
tons over the shoulder, where it should
be an inch and a half crop The neck
and armholes may be embroidered.
though the Drettiest way to trim a.
petticoat Of this kind is to scallop it.
The bottom may also be scalloped or
embroidered in a more elaborate de-
! sign, or it may be simply embroidered
in demonstrating of some design.
Silk and wool flannel is the best to
use for babies clothes, as it. does not
! shrink as the all wool does. All the
seams in flannel underwear should be
| opened and pressed and either cat or
feather stitched.
| For the best long dresses handker,
chief linen is probably the prettiest to
use. It may be bought for from IS
cents yard up. Linen batiste is also
used great deal, as is also French
nainsook. The French nainsook has a
| little dressing in it and is easily
creased for sewing and IS therefore
nice to sew on. 1t comes in three
widths and costs from rs cents a uard
up to $3.50 yard.
! A long dress should measure q yard
from the, neck to the hem, and If
! trimmed with a ruffle should be a
yard and three quarters wide; If it Is
not trimmed with a ruffle it should be
two yards wide. -,
