NEW FORM
Attorney General of State
to Keep Closer Tab on
Inheritance Taxes
MUST KNOW SIZE OF ESTATE

The attorney general s Office in
Madison is planning to keep in closer
touch with the collection of inheri-
lance taxes about the state and to
this end Judge R. H. Slosson of the
county court has received from the de-
partment a series Of forms to be used
in notifying the attorney general of
the time for hearings on the adjust
ment of inheritance taxes. This new
notice differs from the former notice
in that it provides that the attorney
general shall be given notice of the
value of the estate and the nature
of the, requests and the number sub
ject to pay inheritance taxes. Keno
sha in short time will make another
contribution to the state treasury in
inheritance taxes on the estate of the
late 2. G. Simmons. In the three
years since 1907 Kenosha county will
pay into the state treasury as inheri-
tances taxes upwards of 100000
Few counties in the state pay any
where near as much inheritance tax
as this county and for this reason Ke-
county promises to be leader in the
proposed fight to secure better ad-
justment of the inheritance taxes and
any man who represents Kenosha
county in the legislature will be called
upon to pledge himself to support
some law to make more equitable
division of these taxes. At the pres
ent time this county receives but FIVE
per cent of the inheritance tax col
lected. The new form of notice of
the Attorney General is sent out with
the idea of making it possible for a
member of the. official force to be pres
ent at the adjustment of inheritance
taxes on any large estate.

BLIND ORATOR HERE
F. S. Atwood Delivers Lecture Before
the Kenosha Lodge of Pythians

Kenosha members of the Knights of
Pythias had an unusually pleasant
evening on Wednesday night when
they had for their guest F. S. At
wood, grand prelate of the order in
Minnesota and widely known among
members of the order as "The Blind
Optimist. - Mr. Atwood who was
formerly an active business can was
stricken with blindness some five years
ago and since that time he has been
lecturing before members of the
Knights of Pythians in various parts
of the country. He is a decidedly
eloquent speaker and his lecture on
Happiness made a big hit with
the local Pythians. A large crowd
attended the lecture and after the
lecture an informal luncheon was serv-
ed and the entertainment closed with
an informal dance.

RECORD IS MADE IN CHICAGO
Dealers in Meat Now Declare That
Cold Wave is Responsible for the
Latest increase in Prices of Com
modites.

Meat prices generally were given a
boost yesterday. Practically every
thing in the meat line, from bologna
sausage to live turkeys, was affected
and the increase in cost ranged from
a fraction of a cent to 2 cents a
pound.
Dressed beef, mutton and pork pro-
ducts were affected by upturns in the
price of live cattle, sheep, lambs and
hogs, and showed only moderate gains.
Live ducks, however, were enhanced 2
cents pound, and an increase of a
halt cent to | cent pound was made
in prices of geese, turkeys and chick
ems.
Dealers in meat products said that
zero weather was partly responsible
for the upturn in prices, but added
that, while cold weather precipitated
the advances, by delaying incoming
supplies, there was an increase in
costs coming this way, and high prices
will remain long after Jack Frost has
made his departure.
In explaining this statement a well
informed provisioner in Chicago, said:
"Supply and demand used to be the
two governing factors in establishing
meat values, but prices from now until
a new crop of live stock has been rails
ed will depend solely on the volume
of supply, regardless of the demand.
'Abstaining from meat eating, as
was done during the recent agitation
over the high cost of living, can
bring about only spasmodic fluetua-
tions in prices, from which recovery
quickly follows. This has been fully
illustrated by the way buyers for the
eastern cities, where the meat boycott
had most effect, are leading in paying
higher prices than have been. seen in
years for stock on the Chicago mar
ket.
Conservative men who have made
a study of the present situation say
that there is no relief from high prices
in sight for at least another year, and
the only way for the housewife to
economic is to learn to use the cheap.
er cuts of meat until the supply Of
the better becomes more PLENTIFUL
Sheep and lambs at the stockyards
during the day sold at the highest
prices ever recorded in the history of
the Chicago trade, while hogs advanc-
ed to level not attained since 1870.
Cattle sold at the highest prices since
the middle of last January, recover
ing all of the losses made during the
recent agitation over high prices.
Eastern shippers took the lead in
paying higher prices for hogs and
bought loads of stock at 1910, which
was 20 cents higher than paid for the
same class of stock the first part of
the week. Packers paid 1885 for
lambs and $7.s5 for sheep, prices
which showed increases of 10 and 20
cents respectively over the previous
record mark. Beef cattle sold up to
$50 an advance OF 10 cents over the
best price recorded since January.

How often do you
eat this food?

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection Of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended: but If the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given 20
good oatmeal.
As matter of fact Great Britain

HoBos ALL DRUNK.
Cold Weather Forces Weary Wander
ers to Take to the Booze.

The cold weather on Wednesday
was given as the cause Of half a
dozen tramps who applied for shelter
at the tramp room in the county Jail
There were eight hobos who applied
for shelter and all save one was more
or less under the influence Of liquor.
The men declared that the weather
was so cold that they were forced to
spend all the money they could get
for whiskey in order to keep warm.
No charge was preferred against any
of the hobos this morning but all of
them were turned out.
