ed to be 259o more economical in its
operation than the discarded equip
ment.
There is perhaps another and more
potent reason why Mr.. Erath has un-
dertaken the improvemesas in the ice
factory at this time. and that is the
fact that his trade, had outgrown the
capacity of the old plant. By the
changes. now being made. the plant
will have an actual capacity of 35 tons
per day of clear ice in. summer
weather.
The new machinery is all of a mass
i've pattern, giving one an impress
sion, at first glance, of its great
strength and durability. 1t was pur-
chased in New York and shipped by
steamer to New Orleans, thence by
rail to Morgan City. where it was
loaded onto boat again and finally
delivered in the yard of the factory,
but few feet from where it will be
operated.
During the next couple of weeks the
new machinery is expected to be in
position and ready to be tested. Mr..
Brown is in charge of the work Of
erecting. He was sent by the factory.

Boston, Mass.-A little Brown
beetle, less than fourth Of an
inch long, is gradually changing a
whole system Of agriculture. He
is disturbing the balance of trade
He is causing the north to lose
money.
This bug, the cotton boil weevil
viewed at first as a calamity OF
stupendous proportions, is begin
ming to be appreciated as a bless
ing in the south.
The Gotten plant originated IN
the plateau region CT Central
America and south Mexico. For
a hundred years or SO it has been
cultivated in the United States
Also, in the original home Of the
cotton plant originated the cotton
boil weevil He began to push
nOrthwald, a few miles each year
hunting Gotten 10 eat.
1t Aas long journey. but in
central Mexico fields Of the cult
waited plant became more plentiful
Ky 1890 practically All Mexico
was infested. So yoracions were
the weevils that in many sections
of Mexico cotton planting was
abandoned in its entirety
In the first ten years IN the
United States the annual spread
of the boil weevil was 5,64(
square miles. Since 1901 the an
nual increase of infestation has
averaged 26,SSO miles In 1901
- 800 square miles were Infested
At present the boil weevil has a
lOdgment in five states-Texas
Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas
and Oklahoma Alabama and Yves
Tennessee will be reached in 1911
Georgia and South Carolina and
East Tennessee will be invaded il
1912. BY 1915 the infestation O.

tire cotton producing area Of th'
United States will be complete.
Poison has no effect upon HIM
for lie bOres into the immature
cotton bolls puds holding the lin
and seed in embry") and sucks the
juice and sap from the interior.
Forty-iive species of insect enc
mics of the weevil are known. Tht
parasite develops by feeding upor
the young boil weevil, which it ul
timately kills.
The only remedy f": The weevl
IS to stop planting cotton, for tbt
weevll feeds upon nothing else .
A reduction of two-thirds in tht

At ten cents a pound, or $50

WHAT YOU NEED
 IN SUMMER

On the sweltering hot days of sum- mer, when everyone is striving to keep reasonably cool and comfortable most people are apt to drink very literally of ice water.
 Ice water cools the blood tempor- arily, but cools it so suddenly that there is speedy reaction, which makes the body warmer than it was before. Ice water does not prevent the fatigue, weariness and general heayiness which excessive heat brings on.
 That is why nearly everybody likes Fan-Taz, the famous rich, red, sparkling soft drink. Fan-Taz not only cools the heated blood-it re- freshes, invigorates and vitalizes the entire system. And it's delicious fla vor, unmatched in any other drink makes it appeal to young and old alike. It is at once delight and a comfort in hot weather, and the thousands who ask for it at soda fountains, day in and day out, are the best possible evidence that it is the ideal summer drink. Many peo- ple, too, keep a case of it in bottles, in the house all the time This means that they not only have an antidote for the heat always at hand, but that they are never at loss for deli- cious beverage to serve visiting friends. z, [, 14, 2l, zo.

NEW AUSTRALIAN
 TAX SYSTEM
10 Be Levied on Market Value of
 Land, Not on Improvements.

Sydney, July 19.-The progressive idhd tax, which is the mot imnie- dlateIy important item of the labor program, was clear y defined last yea, ln the bill which Mr. Fishers govern hent laid on the table of the House before he was expelled from office.
 The tax is to be levied on the req s9hable market value of the land "as- snnlng that the actual improvements thereon had not been made , This sounds highly theoretical, but the New South Wales land tax has been levied in that fashion for many years, ana recent assumptions show that owners did not suffer by it. The ten dency has always been to undervalue. Absentees (ineluding hxlra- -Austral- Ian companies and companies in which more than txo-fifths of the shares are held by absentees), pay cn the whole value, others on the value less o,0Oo rounds. The usual exemp- tons for genuinely charitable relig- ious, or public purposes.
 The tax payer must make his own valuation, which may be amended by a eommis ion, who has the power to make also independent valuations or to use those made by any state au- thority. The tax payer may appeal to the high court for declaration allowing the Commonwealth to re- sume at the owners valuation land wilfully undervalued
 The tax is a first encumbrance and may not be evaded. Mortgagers pay it; the morgagee is not liable unless he has entered into poejsession. Will full under-statements involve fine of 300 pounds, plus treble tax; and estimates more than p per cent below the finally ascertained value are deemed wilful
