State Wins Tax Suit.

Attorney General Crawford today
was advised by T. j. Cleeton, coun-
ty Judge of Multnomah county, that
he had decided in favor of the state
in the matter of the inheritance tax
of the Selma Barr estate. In levying
the tax originally on the heirs and
the widower the court erred in max
ing an incorrect proportion and it
was advised of the fact by the state
treasurer. The attorney for the es-
tate agreed to have it corrected but
failed to do so but instead permitted
the 80 days for appeal to expire and
then contended that the case could
not be re-opened or appealed.
Assistant Attorney General Van
Wrinkle contended that the error was
a clerical one and brought an action
to have the matter corrected and the
advice received this morning is that
the court has upheld his contention
and decided the case in his favor.

no idea as to what caused the acci-

HAS PRAISE
FOR DAIRY
AT ASYLUM

Dairy conditions at the Oregon
insane asylum are equal to the best
to be found anywhere in the nation,
according to DR.. S. w. Mcclure,
chief of the bureau of animal indus
try in the northwest, who has just
returned from an official visit to the
willamette valley. When asked con-
cerning the milk supply sonditions
at the asylum, he replied:
Il have just returned from Salem,
Oregon, where we tested the dairy
herd owned by the state insane asy-
lum This herd is costituted of 12l
cattle and is kept in the highest pos
sble condition to economically pro-
duce milk.
While at the asylum 1 had the
opportunity of examining carefully
the new dairy barn which has jus
been completed under the direction
OF Or. Lee Steiner, superintendent
of the asylum. In my judgment this
barn is the most sanitary and most
up to date in every particular of any
dairy barn located in any of tho
western states, in fact, it is probable
that few, if any barns in the United
states exceed it in sanitation and
modern construction.
"Dr. Steiner is to be congratulat-
ed upon the wisdom he has displayed
IN the construction of this barn and
the state is fortunate indeed to pos
sess such an institution within Its
borders, Under these modern con-
ditions the state insane asylum IS
supplied with dairy products which
are unsurpassed anywhere in the ma
uon' This barn is worth many tires
what it cost as a demonst tation tC
the dairymen of the state in modern
dairy sanitation. Any dairyman who
cohtemplates the construction of q
new dairy barn can well afford tc
TAKE trip to Salem to view this
modern institution.
We found the dairy cows all fires
from tuberculosis and found tha'
me old barn was kept in a most ex
cellent sanitary condition and tho
everything possible is being done tC
produce the purest possible dairl
products for the inmates of this In
