A BONFIRE OF TAGS
UNsOLD FERTILIxER TAGS ARE
 BURNED IN CAPITOL.
Total was 37Ao0O, of Which 25lyoo0 Were Ihtact and 124,OO0 Rep-
 resented Redemptfon of Old 0nka.

The State was saved one dAy's fuel bill Wednesday by the legal destrue- ton of s75,00o fertilizer tags in the sight of State Treasurer walter D. Seed. Attorney General Alex MI Gar Der and Secretary of State Frank N. Julian, in the hearth of the former officiai.
 The lot burned consists of the sur- plus tags left over after the sales Of the supply for the fiscal year 1901-08 and those which had been exchanged in october and November. 1907. for the tags to be used during the year clos ing Wednesday.
 The destruction was slow but com- piete. as Section 20 of the Political Code requires. The tags were con- tained in 376 boxes of 1000 each and these were divided as follows: 25I boxes which remained intact in the Capitol during the year. and t24 boxes which had been sold at the statutory CTS or dealers of fertiiizcrs in 1sos-o7. but which being unused were exchang- ed at the beginning Of the last fiscai year for the then new tass
 As soon as the burning was complete the three State ofiicers named, imme. diately made certificate to that effect. reciting the total number of tags with which the Department of Agriculture and Industries had been charged and giving Hon. ]. A. Wiikerson. the head of this department, clean bill of health for this end of hIs years work.
 The total sales of tags last year amounted to s93.747ss, which Is a few thousand In excess of the record for 190s.07. That the safes for lso7.oS would exceed those for the year pre- yious. would not have been predicted. and was not predicted in the first four months of the past year. It was due to the financial pinch that the sales were delayed to February practically when with rush the soil Aux got In demand The cars could not haul 1t to the farmers then quick eaough. And finally on the home stretch of June and July the top notch wss reached. eclips- ing the record.
 The redemption of lso7.os tags with new ones will begin today and will run through the next two months Then 1t ends by law. It is said that there are several boxes of unused tags in the hands of the dealers ano ninnufactur- CTS to be sent in for redemption. The total amount of new tags received 6 few days ago for the present year was $500 6oe

were so infectious that | was obliged
to join in with them. Vincent sat at

table with some of the yellow roses
and wild fern that grew near the cas-
