EVERY HOME OWNER
IN DULUTH GETS IT
From Delphos, Kan, Republican:

From Delphos, Kan, Republican:
There are some queer things about
our system of taxation. Here is an
example: Once upon time the ed
itor of this paper became possessed
Of the. ~laudable ambition to own a
home. Having managed to save up
few dollars, he purchased upon the
payment plan some property which
had been taken in. on mortgage by
an Eastern investment company.
The house was in such bad re-
pair that it was not fit for occu-
pancy. The cellar was full of stag
nant water, weeds grew rankly about
the house, the porches were rotted
and sagging, the house implanted.
The lot was couple of feet above
the sidewalk, and the earth had
washed and caved, making it i'm
passable. The place was an eyesore
and menace to health; we wanted
a home and saw it's possibilities.
1t was located in a good neighbor-
hood, and from it we had beautiful
view over pretty valley. Being rath-
er handy with tools, we went to work
before and after office hours. We
repaired the porches, painted the
house, sodded and terraced the yard
and drained the cellar and put in
curbing and parking. We worked
early and late, until at last we had,
as many people told us, one of the
prett1est homes in the town-and
then the assessor came around and
doubled our taxes.
We were fined because we had
worked hard and converted disorder
into order, ugliness into beauty, and
had wiped out a plague spot in the
It is also true that
the owner of a few vacant lots adj
joining our place. immediately adj
vanced them in price, but neglected
to cut the tall weeds which grew
on them. 1t may be added that his
taxes were not increased, notwith-
standing the fact that he held his
lots at higher price.
We have told this story because
the statement itself ought to cause
someone to do some hard thinking.
There surely is something radically
wrong with a system of taxation in
which. person is fined for merely
being Industrious.

Social reform is not to be secured

tons; but by the awakening Of

RURAL GARDENING IS
LEARNED PROFESSION
Involves a. knowledge of as Many
:. Subjects as Law or g. =
Medicine.

It takes education to be lawyer or
doctor, but far more to be a high
class gardener. The study Of law
includes several branches and that
for a good doctor perhaps more, but
to be high class gardener requires
a knowledge of botany, chemistry,
entomology, animal pathology, geo.
logy, horticulture, agronomy, not to
mention neurology and several me-
chanical trades and a whole library
of other things. Why should not
gardening be placed at the head of
the Learned professions?'
We answer it should, and with
the progress now being made by
gardeners in the suburbs of Duluth
the time is not far distant when it
shall be.

judges in Arizona and New Mexico We
have had all the recall in Seattle that
we care for, and practically Il works
very poorly. We are confronted here
almost every day with a petition for

are also solicited almost daily for con-
tribuuons all the way from 500 IN
