Taxing Of biilboards.

Two methods for taxing billboards
and other outdoor advertising are be-
fore the Massachusetts legislature.
One plan provides for an excise tax Of
10 cents a square foot on all outdoor
advertisements displayed for more
than seVen consecutive days when the
advertisements do not pertain to the
place or property upon which they are
located. The tax would be paid to the
state. and the highway commission
would grant licenses for billboards
etc. The other plan proposes to tax
billboards and the like as real estate.
basing the tax on the advertising value
of the boards. The tax would be de-
termined by local special commissions.
which also would have authority to
regulate and control the display Of any
or all outdoor advertising as public

Babies Wanted
To Make Important Test-Color and
Sex Not Materia1-Must Be
Under Five Years Old.

The most alarming condition con.
fronting the American people today
is our infantile death rate. Statistics
compiled from reports of the e. S.
u, vernment and the State Board of
Health Of our largest populated
states, show that about 81 per cent
of our deaths are among children
under 5 years of age and 0per cent
under years of age. OF this 80
per cent two thirds or 81 per cent
die from Diarrht a and Enteritis.
This means that in state like Ark
ansas with an annual death rate of
35, 900, 10000 are children under
2 years and 1000 of these die every
year with Bacterial Infection of the
Stomach n d Bowels, ordinarily
termed Bowel trouble, Diarrhoa,
Cholera Infantum, Summer Comp
laint, Teething Troubles, etc.
Statistics SO show that no other
disease produces half as manyieaths
among people of all ages as does this
one disease of "Bowelz Trouble"
among children under 2 years.
Appalling as these figures are,
how little concern is generally shown
in the preparation of Foods and
Remedies in an effort to avoid this
greatest ofall death dealing monsters.
To lessen this great mortality
among children should be the aim Of
both our national and state govern
ment and the effort Of every citizen.
