crosscutting all in ore The property has already produced eight cars of ore running 12 per cent copper and averaging forty ounces of silver tc the ton.
 Of course the money stringency of last fall which extended over the entire country had its effect upon a:i small operators but with the return of easier times the Los Angeles can and will recover, perhaps, quicker than other like propositions The pc culiar natural advantages of the Los Angeles permit it to be operated more profitably even at present copper prices than any other like proposi- ton in the country.
 "The events of the past will serve as a guide to future developments. The shareholders may now feel se- cure in their investment It would not be surprising at all if, within a few months, the Los Angeles mine be counted among the leading mining propositions in the state of Sonora"

cALleULA's VASE in AMERICA.
Italian Government Has Written to
Owner to Return 1t.

Los Angeles, Cal.-An old broken
Roman vase, supposed to be 1870
years old, which was casually picked
up in the ruins of the palace of the
Roman Emperor Caligula several
years ago by w. M. Milne, of Los An
geles, is now sought by the Italian
government, and is believed to be of
very great historic value.
The vase was found by Mrs. Milne
when she and her husband were max
ing tour of the world in 1903 When
they arrived in Rome they visited a
spot where excavations were under
way, bringing to light the ruins of the
palace of Emperor Caligula. While
the workmen were digging away, the
two tourists pottered about, and when
a number of old vases were I'M
earthed, and one was found with it's
top broken, it was secured easily for
a few pieces of silver. The old hoary
thing was brought carefully by the
curio hunters to Los Angeles, and here
it has remained unnoticed for four
years.
Recently Mr.. Milne received letter
from Giacomo Boni, director general
of foreign excavations for the Italian

Correct and Yet Untrue.

Ewing Herbert OF the Brown County
World says that it is incorrect to
speak of 'shucking'' corn; that the
word shuck is a noun and that when
one wishes to use a verb referring
to stripping the shuck from an ear of
corn he should use husk. Asa F.
Converse comments in the Wellsville
Globe as follows: However, late die
tionaries allow the use of both shuck
and husk as verbs, as well as their
use as nouns. So If you want to say
that a man shucked $50 bushels of
corn in ten hours you may do so, or
you may say that he husked $50 bush
els of corn. The only possible way
in which you may be called down is
to have someone say you are liar

clerks and commissioners at Salina,
it was decided that all lodges will
have to pay full ta15upon their prop
erty and colleges viii be taxed on all
except a small part OF their property.
1t was decided also that the new law
increases the values OF all property
and reduces the tax levies proper
tionately. Samuel T. Howe, of the
state tax commission said the meet
ing was not only the largest ever held
in the state, but that it would re-
suit in the greatest good as the new
law was just ready to take effect. j.
l.. Logsdon, of Howard, was elected
president of the clerks association; j.
P. Burns, of Salina, vice president;
Frank Soper, of Beloit, treasurer and
Miss Jessie Campbell, of Hiawatha,
the only woman clerk in the state,
secretary. William B. Loomis, of OF

To Protect the Farmers.

w. R. Fisher, president of the Ma
tional Bank of Norton, has organized
company for the purpose of build
ing a large storage elevator large
enough to hold 100000 bushels of
grains E'The idea of our big eleva-
tor" said Mr.. Fisher, lis to protect
the farmers who must have money
against low prices. We will store his
grain in this elevator and allow him
80 per cent of its value in cash. If
grain goes up he may sell it at any
time he desires and receive the bene-
fit of the raise. Many farmers who
need money are compelled to sacrifice
their grain upon low markets, while
our method enables them to borrow
practically as much money on the
grain as they would receive for it, and
later on they get the benefit of the
raise in price,

Bankers Dislike Tax Law.

81 ruling of the state tax commits
sion to the effect that the federal
law exempting United States bonds
and the state law exempting state,
county and municiptl bonds from
taxation will not operate to relieve
stockholders in banks from taxation
on the capital and surplus of the
bank when invested in bonds may
result in a suit in the federal courts
involving the validity of the new
tax law Under a provision of the
federal constitution United States
bonds are not taxable. The legisla-
ture in enacting the new tax law pro-
vided that state, county and muni-
cipal bonds shall not be taxable.
Banks are taxed, Indirectly under the
law, on their cash capital, surplus
and undivided prifits- 1t is the con-
tention of some bankers that by in
vesting their capital and surplus in
bonds exempted from taxation the
shareholders in banks may escape
taxation on their stock. The tax COM
mission holds otherwise and will in

capital, surplus and undivided profits
of each bank in the state, together
