Some assess a fair cash value. Others

one half OF the cash value and some
less and some more than this proper
ton. This lack of uniformity occas'
ions a great injustice and unfairness
in the payment of Stale taxes. and
should be promptly and efficiently cor
rected. There should exist state
authority empowered to remedy these
evils and to distribute equally the
burdens Of State taxation. Under the
present system values are assessed
entirely by local authorities and the
State has no power to make correc-
'tions even when the injustice is gross
and apparent Communities can and
many do now escape a fair share
Of their taxation by low assessments.
Others realizing the extent of this
practice and seeking to remedy the
injustice adopt themselves very low

not continue
After considering matureiy the
many plans proposed, | have con
cluded that the State can in o very
simple. direct and efficiency way

estimated the taxes due the State
by county and city treasurers. II
a law should be passed requiring
these assessments to have the ap-
prevail Of the State auditor before
they become operative the existing
inequality and injustice could be sub
stantially corrected. The auditor
could determine a uniform proportion
of cash value Of property, real and
personal, to be assessed for the pur-
pose of State taxation; when this
rate CT uniform valuation was violated
by a commissioner of the revenue or
land assessor, so that he could not
approve the boks. then the auditor
should be directed to send the books
back for correction, and if not proper
" corrected or returned within a
certain time the auditor should be au-

State taxes, the same to be as effec-
tive as if made by the commission

selves aggrieved, having the same
corrected in the court of the county

law.

Development of Agriculture.
1t is estimated that last year cur
agricultural products amounted to
s209, OOO, 900. An interest of such mag
nltude, OF such vast Importance to the
State, should receive most generous
consideration and assistance. In ad-
dition to continuing the many pres
ent policies OF agricultural develop
ment. which has been most beneficial.
| recommend that this commendable
work be further advanced The
demonstrative and experimental work
should be extended in the different
counties and sections. Thus the agri-
cultural products particularly suited
to the various parts of the State could
be scientifically and successfully de-
veloped with most beneficial results.
An appropriation should be made to-
enable the agricultural department to
cooperate with the federal govern
ment in its soil survey work. This
should be begun Immediately and con
tinue until the entire State has been
mapped. By thus cooperating, the
work can be done economically.
speedily and scientifically. There is
an urgent necessity for a complete
and scientific soil survey of the State.
and the results accruing from it'll
would be most profitable and bene
fetal
Il would also recommend to the
general assembly the formation of
several movable agricultural schools,
to teach the farmers in the various
sections of the State practical. scien-
tific farming. The courses in these
schools should be limited to one or
several weeks The teachers in these
schools should consist of experts in
the various kinds of agriculture. .
Other Recommendation.
There has existed for some time
necessity for a better kitchen and din
ing room at the State prison. The
laws of sanitation imperatively de-
mand these improvements. The pres
ent method of feeding the prisoners is |
not only detrimental TO health. but
also wasteful and degrading. The in
creased earnings of the prison produc-
ed by the increased health Of the
prisoners would soon pay for this ex
penditure.

 WEEKLY REVIEW
There Is No Apparent Abatement oi Industrial Activity in the South.
 ern States.

Chattanooga, Tenn, June 9.-With the early days of summer there is no apparent abatement in the industrial activity of the South The verified reports to the Tradesman show that there is decided strenuosity in the new construction, and the investment of capital in various lines of legiti- mate activity continues with appar- ent confidence. In the development of natural resources, especially, such as iron, coal, lumber and their by products, there is a noticeable im- petus such as might not have been expected at this season of the year whe industries usually lag in sym
 pathy with the thermometer. The list of new industries established in the South during the week ending to- day as reported to The Tradesman, and presented herewith, is an inter- esting study for those who are watch ing the industrial movement in the South. There are many and varied concerns in the list, and some big figures are also seen. For example, two new railroads are reported in Alabama; cotton oil mill in Arkan- sa; two waterworks plants in Flori- da; three banks in Georgia; an iron working plant in Kentucky; lumber plants and banks in Louisiana; an electric railway and steam railroad in Mississippi; two banks in North Carolina; mines in Oklahoma; cotton and lumber companies in South Car olina; several manufacturing compa- nies in Tennessee; development con- panies and new railroad in Texas; power plant in West Virginia. In fact, the record of the past week in the South compared favorably with any seven days period in recent years.

CRAPnIC'S SCOOP
 IS CONFIRMED
Question of Sale of Branch Normal to Be Considered at Meeting of the
 University Trustees Saturday.

The question of selling the Brancn Normal College property at Pine Bluff anl purchasing suitable farm in Jefferson county near Pine Bluff upon which to re-establish the college
 will De considered at the adjourned
 meeting of the Board Of Trustees of with the University of Arkansas. It in the governors office Saturday,
 says the Little Rock Gazette.
 The Branch Normal College is a
 negro institution and is affiliated
 with the University of Arkansas. It was established by an act Of the leg islature and it will require an act of the same body to dispose Of the prop
 erty, purchase the farm and provide for the construction of the necessary buildings for the college.
 Governor Donaghev has always been in favor of the sale of the property and the purchase Of the pro- posed farm, but is unwilling for the
 present site to be disposed Of under the price that it is worth. The prop erty consist of 9 acres in the wes- tern suburbs of Pine Bluff. and with the buildings and improvements, the
 governor believes that il is worth at least $75,000 If it can be sold at this price. the governor believes the amount received for it will be sufficient to purchase the farm de-
 sired and construct and equip the buildings necessary for the school. Governor Donaghey said yesterday that he was heartily in favor of the idea, and that if the board agreed with his views on the subject he will willingly recommend in his next mes sage to the legislature both that and the proposed purchase. The citizens of Pine Bluff, so far as known, fa- vor the proposition, as there ap- pears to be a general demand for the use of the college property for fac ; tory sites.
 The consideration of this question by the trustees is but incidental tc the business for which the adjourned
 meeting is to be held. It was called 1 for the purpose of electing teachers for the college for the next year.

The Queen Bee.

The truth Is that throughout all thA wonder workings of the beehive the queen is little more than an instru. ment. kind of an automaton. merely doing what the workers compel her to do. They are the real queens in fne hive, and the mother bee is the real subject. The workers have made her for their own wise purpose. just as they make the comb and the honey to store in it. The egg she is matched from is in no way different from any worker egg. If you take one from a queen cell and put it in the ordinary cell it will hatch out a common female worker bee, and an egg transferred from worker comb to queen cell becomes a full grown queen. Thousands and thousands of worker eggs are laid in a hive during the season. and each of those could be made into queen if the workers chose. But the worker egg is laid in small cell. and the larva is bred on bare minimum of food at the least possible cost in time, trouble and space to the hive. while when a new queen is wanted cell as big as your finger tip is built. and the larva is stuffed like a prize pig through all its i've days of embryo life until. with unlimited food and time and room to grow in. it comes out at last a perfect mother bee.-Van Norden's Magazina
