For the past two years the Civic
Federation of Chicago has been ac-
comprising wonderful results in the
way of educational campaigns for the
masses, particularly as they have per-
tanned to the welfare Of the child.
Last summer, through their efforts pri-
marily, the health department showed
a remarkably low death rate among
babies This year they are entering
the campaign with renewed vigor and
energy and among other features have
sent out thousands of the cartoons
above pictured printed in four colOrs
and in many languages, under the
scare head Don't kill your baby"
The cartoon, which was drawn by
Ralph Wilder. depicts the normal and
healthy baby and what they should

over the country. The poster has been

NEAR z MILLIONS
Topeka Building Operations for
Last Year.
Facts Gathered by Assessors
Prove the City's Growth.
PERSONAL TAX LOSS
Officers Failed to Find as Much
as Last Year.
Farm improvements Show a
Healthy Increase.

Go to the records in the Office of
Samuel G. Zimmerman, county clerk,
and you viii find that even the lowly
assessors found Topeka's building inn
provements for the year ending March
1, 1911, aggregated S1,S26.955, exclusive
of railroad and other common carrier
and public service improvements. To
ments as shown in the first statement,
must be added $526,0S4 to cover the i'm
provements Of public service corpora
lions. This statement brings the total
Topeka city improvements for the year
to $1,753, 039-the greatest gain in the
history of the city.
Under the present law all property is
assessed at actual value. Consequently
when an assessor takes the value OF a
town lot, he also gets the value of the
property on this strip Of ground. The
figures secured in 1910 are compared
with those gathered this year and the
net gain this year over last year rep
reserts the building activities of the
city, as reported to the assessors.
In the 1910 statement, the value OF
aI town lots and their improvements
was S30, 249. $40, while the showing this
year is S31, 576, 1895. Properties Of public
service corporations in Topeka were
valued at 81, 557, $50 a year ago. But the
returns this year show a valuation OF
$5.0S3. $40. A comparison of the figures
for 1910 end 1911, show the aggregate
improvements to have been S1,S53,039-
While the assessors made a good
showing on the county's realty, they
had but little success with the per-
sonal property column. In Topeka
CITY the assessors overlooked $1S4,94O
in personal property that was found a
wear ago. This failure t. dig up pri-
vate bank accounts and collateral Sc
curity will somewhat offset the ire
mendous showing in private improve
ments.
In the county the total gain in the
personal property and real estate is
'S2O53.145 over the 1910 showing.
Topexa township showed an increase
for the year of $6S,650 in personal
building improvements, q gain of $50
75O personal property, and railroad
improvements aggregated $7,OOl. on
farm lands, there was an increase IN
the township of $3.50. These items
