TAX REFORM IN NEVADA

THE San Francisco Examiner is fighting or tx reform IN Cahfor.
MIA and statest that the only way that real IA reform a b e con
plshed is to segregate state taxation from county taxation.
The Appeal has been advocating the SAM remedy in this state OF
years and several bills have been introduced in the Legislature aiming
to bring about this very ecessary state Of afairss Whenever j" is
done the present high tax rate will be done away will and by assess
ing property at its full cash value Nevada will stand before tn world
at her true cash value.
This under valuation sends the tai rate up frightens apuaL
Several attempts have been made to have the Legislature remedy
this defect but no men al a rule arc elected to the Legislature who seem
to understand the somewhat complicated questions of taxation reve-
ne that n o attention is paid to such measures and the old plan OF
Keeping u a high tax rat while all classes of property is undervaned
goes on indefinitely
THE charge is floating about tie newspapers that the Reno Gazette
attempted to hold up a prominent Republican candidate for $1,000 before
is "a serious charge and If any one q the people in the Gazette ONCE
made such a attempt at backmail III Gazette Publishing Company
owes 1t to itself to investigate the matter ant act accordingly. No pub
lie newspaper AN afford to remain silent under such a charge. #

STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

On a fairly good volume of business. taking
the average daily totals OF recent weeks as a
standard. the stock market yesterday showed
considerable strength or. rather, resisting
power. for there at time any real buy
ing power, and the principal advance In prices
came in the last hour through covering Of short
contracts. toward the end of a session in which
the trading was again in large measure profess
sional in character. Net price changes for the
day were irregular, with gains and losses about
equal in number and for the most part only
fractional in size. The range of prices was mar
row. and little response given TO develop
ments either good or bad which came out in the
course of the day. Among these developments
was the cutting ir two of the dividend on Amer
lean Smelling and Refining common stock, upon
the announcement of which action, which had
been expected, the stock rallied from its early
depression its upward movement giving momen-
tary strength TO the general list The New York
Metal Exchange shaded its quotations for copper
metal. but that step had no influence on Anal
gamated Copper. which advanced on the news of
the decision TO reopen some of the company5 )
mines at Butte and which closed l 1s points up
from Saturday National Lead conspicu-
ously strong good trade reports advancing
31a points and closing a the top. Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific advanced the former gam

list. Rumors that the President preparing

curities. not much of market factor: and
the decision of the upstate Public Service Com
mission adverse to the application OF the Erie
Railroad Company for authorization Of the plan
of declaring dividends in scrip on the first and
second preferred stock issues had as little effect
the market, although the Erie preferred issues
declined each q point or more.
Time money rates were easier yesterday than
in the recent past, yielding heavy offerings of
funds. for which the demand was light. Call
money continued nominal The foreign exchange
market was not active, but was strong, the de-
mand sterling rate advancing % points.

sealing it up? Because the fruit has
been exposed to the air and bacteria,
20 some extent, have attached them
selves to the fruit. The heating de-
sIroys the bacteria already in the
fruit and when these are destroyed
and the fruit sealed, no others can
get access. But without the heating
the bacteria begin to multiply very
rapidly and soon the whole mass fer
ments. The apple in it's natural con-
dition has coating that keeps out
the bacteria. The skin of an apple
has an oily coat that keeps out water
and keeps out bacteria also.
During nice days in the winter,
when the trees are not frozen, the
orchardist may begin the work of
pruning. He should have some clear
ideas of the object of pruning. To
cut and slash in the top of tree is
not necessarily pruning. Pruning is
cutting out and cutting back the top
of tree with a definite object in
view. The following rules have been
laid down by some of our horticulture
lists, and they contain some good sug-
gestions:
Object of Pruning.
1. To modify the vigor of the plant.
2. To produce large and better
fruit.
3. To keep the plants or trees with
in manageable shape.
4. To change trees from wood
bearing to fruit bearing, and vice
versa.
5. To remove superfluous or injured
