1T MAY be Of interest to state here
that through the cooperation of this
Office and that of the State assessors a
plan has been adopted for the forth
coming report whereby the description
OF wild lands will take a form that
will reduce the space required from
one-fourth to one-third, and also carry
it INFO a class of composition costing
only one-half as much per page. This
will affect most Of the above items
and result in a saving of several thou
sand dollars.
THE apparently undue proportion
Of saving that appears in connection
with Glass A printing for 1906 is large
ly caused by several instances ir
which, under the old system, there
would have been constructive print
ing. and which under the present sys-
tenn it was possible to eliminate. The
same feature, in various ways and de-
grees, enters into all the other classes
represented.
Touching this feature we quote
from the report Of the legislative COM
mittee on State printing, 1905:
can important matter, to which
our attention was also called, is the re-
use of saved or standing type, and the
printing ahead of more work than is
ordered, in anticipation of other or
ders, and with the risk of loss, If the
anticipation is not realized. The Ques-
ton was whether, in such cases, the
printer is entitled to make a second
charge for composition without hav-
ing actually set up the type a second
time. The overwhelming weight of
the evidence was, and we accordingly
find, that under a statute or contract
containing no provision to the con-
trary, printers have right to any
savings accruing from standing type,
or from printing ahead of orders; and
we further find that when the present
statute was enacted. the right of the
public printer to such savings was
considered by the legislature in fixing
the statute rates. If the present
statute is repealed, however, future
contracts should express the under
standing of the parties in this re-
spect. Document, No. 245,
1905.
"By sweeping provision in the
contracts now in force, constructive
printing, both in composition and
press work, is entirely eliminated.

TIE
Generuf Demand

of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits OF the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why

.When the State treasurer required
these tax acts in pamphlet form to

city, town and plantation in the State,
eight hundred copies for each year
had to be printed. The increased

added expense of sS65.44. Utem 81.
again it becomes the duty Of the
State treasurer, in obedience to law,
to advertise wild land taxes in the
State paper, and one paper in each of
the eight counties in which wild land
SO taxed is located. Because of this
proper description of each parcel
these advertisements grew way beyond
their usual size, making in some papers
five or six pages of solid fine type.
when the bills came in for these
advertisements the State was indebted
to the nine newspapers the sum of
$58G9.S0. Heretofore 5000 has covered
the cost of this advertising, so the
tribute exacted by that resolve in this
Instance is at least $4969.30. Qtem 81.
