THE INCOME TAX
Will Have q Determined Opposition in
the Senate.

washington. June 14.-When the in
come tax question comes before the
Senate for a vote next Friday. the plan
of its opponents, backed by the influ-
ence of President Taft to circumvent
the adoption of such measure will be
fully outlined. Already the opponents
express confidence in their ability to
substitute for the income tax amend
ment a provision for tax on net earn
ings of corporations. available for div
idend purposes, coupled with provi-
sion for the submission to the Legis-
latures of the several states of con-
stitutional amendment giving Congress
the power to lay and collect direct
taxes on incomes. For several days it
has been recognized by the opponents
of the income tax question that the only
way they could make certain the de-
feat Of the proposition would be to Of
fer something in its stead which would
be- acceptable to the country. 1t be-
came known that President Taft dis
agreed with the supporters of tax on
incomes and would lend the admins
tration's influence to bring about their
defeat. But the income tax faction,
numbering all of the Democratic sena-
tors and a number of progressive Re-
publicans variously estimated at from
IL to 10, have been keeping up bold
front, refusing to be diverted from the
purpose by the suggestions of different
forms of corporation taxes. Early In
the present session, Senator Brown of
Nebraska. a Progressive" Republican,
introduced an amendment providing for
the submission Of the income tax ques-
ton to the several states for an amend
ment to the constitution. After the diff
ferent propositions providing for taxes
upon corporations had been rejscted
the Brown amendment was seized up
or as the basis for compromise.
It is understood at the Capitol that a
number Of Progressive" Republicans
have expressed their willingness to
support an amendment providing for a
tax of per cent. on the undisturbed
net earnings of corporations available
for dividend purposes, IL an amend
ment is adopted submitting to the
states the question Of adopting an
amendment to the constitution giving
to Congress the right to collect direct
taxes on incomes. 1t is understood that
the President believes the income tax
question should not be abain submit
ted to the supreme court. but he takes
the position. it Is said, that Congress
should be given the power to levy
taxes on incomes. It is his theory ac-
cording to the members Of the Senate
who have talked with him that the
right OF Congress to levy tax should
be determined as soon as possible SO

TO GROW BEANS IN WISCONSIN

The testing of the production of diff
ferent varieties of beans is being taken
up by the Agricultural Experiment As
ISOLATION, consisting of former short
course in agriculture students of the
University of Wisconsin. This year
about $50 tests of beans in various
sections of the state will be made by
members of the association. One
member has been improving the field
bean until he has produced enough
seed to supply each of these farmers
with sufficient to plant half an acre.
Prof. r. A. Moore says of bean
growing:
''Ihis crop is an excellent one for
moderately poor soils, since it does not
require large amount of nitrogen.
Being leguminous crop, it takes most
of its nitrogen from the air. Beans
are an easy crop to raise under favor
able conditions, and should be more
generally grown in Wisconsin. This
state imports annually large quantities
of various beans which might we'll be
grown in the state"
The production of beans as a COM
mercial crop in Wisconsin is largely
confined to Columbia county, where
over 1900 acres were grown in 1907.
Other important bean growing coun-
ties are Door, Rock and Waukesha.
The crop is also grown to some extent
in Juneau and Green Lake counties.
