thin, prick well, and bake without

Mostgood housekeepers think they
have not done their duty sill they
have ironed the stockings and all
the underwear; but really this is not
necessary. All these things are just
as comfortable without the ironing;
and where there is a large family It
saves a good deal OF work not to
iron them. Just smooth them out
nicely and lay them away.

InO. P. Gordon, State Auditor,
States Clearly His Position
on the Tax Problem.

A great amount OF talk has been
INDUCED in here at Jefferson City,
and as q member OF the State Board
OF Equalization, l have received
many letters from St. Louis and 9th
er parts OF the State, suggesting and
requesting that | should vote TO
raise the valuation OF the farm lands
OF the State sufficiently to bring into
the State treasury enough revenue
30 adequately meet the growing de-
mands Of she different state offices
and state institutions.
admit thas there is ground for
apprehension shat the State will be
unable TO meet all demands made on
It's treasury, under our present sye,
TEN and mode Of raising revenue,
The idea has been spread abroad
throughout the State for "a number
OF years that all property other than
farm lands has been assessed at IA
very high rate OF valuation, and
farm lands at very low rate OF val
ustion. | too believed that this was
the case until | came into the office
OF Auditor OF State. Since taking
charge OF this office, have spent
quite little time investigating ex.
tensively the sources OF the States
revenue, and from deductions which
show below, am convinced that
the farmers land is assessed at a
higher rate OF valuation than any
other class Of property, excepting
bankers, who pay upon their capital
stock and surplus, which is assessed
at SO per cent OF Its true value.
From statements made to the State
Senate OF Missouri, this year OF 1909,
by the individual assessors OF each
county, copy OF which | have be-
fore me, | find thas the real estate OF
the State Is assessed at an average
OF 80. per cent OF Its actual Cash
value.
want to give below to the people
OF the State some figures showing
what per cent OF money, notes and
bonds OF the State is assessed, as
compared TO their actual cash value.
| find that In September, 1908,
there was on deposit In the various
banks OF the State, S512, $50, 800;
that the amount OF money, notes
and bonds returned by the assessors
OF she State for taxable purposes, Tor
the year 1908, was 5,61S,5S2.
This last omount was assessed at an
average OF G6 per cent, which shows
the amount OF money, notes and
bonds on which taxes can be collect.
ed for 1909 This amounts to the
psltry sum of $50, 50S, ga -, which
is only eleven and two one-hun-
dredths per cent of the actual cash
value Of the money, notes and bonds
OF the State, while on real estate the
assessed valuation is 30 per cent OF
It's real or cash value.
| wish to say TO my friends over
the State who have talked with me
about raising real estate to It's actual
cash value, that | am unalterably
opposed TO doing SO, until some
plan is inaugurated whereby shepeo-
pie who own the money OF the State
will be made TO pay taxes on 1t In
some form or other. If that can be
done, there will be no cause for
alarm at there not being sufficient
revenue TO meet each and every de.
mand on the state treasury.
