EoR rig RETIREMENT or THE
RACE

The legislature of New Jersey d.
;ts session lust closed, passed law
which if is claimed, will be long
stan toward the suppression OF de-
oanaracv bv the sterilization OF the
hopelessly deficient and criminal
class. Commenting upon the law
Leslie's weekly says that INDIANA
Connecticut and California have had
such a law for two years but as IN
those states it is necessary to get the
consent of the subject, it has proved
a dead letter. The New Jersey law
however. provides that the operation
NAV be performed on the recommeh-
dation of a commission to be known
as the board of examiners OF the zee,
ble-minded epileptics, criminals anu
other detectives.
The sole object of the new law is
to prevent needless suffering TO 1u'
tire generations, and is based upon
the fact that heridity plays most I'M
portant part in the transmission OF
feeble-mindedness epilepsy, criminal
tendencies and other defects. II
should be stated thta the criminals
referred to by the law are those con
yicted of the crime of assault or sucn
succession of offenses against the
criminal law as in the opinion or the
board of examiners shall be deemed
sufficient evidence of confirmed Grim
inal tendencies. This is a great pow
er to confer upon commission, Du'
if wisely administered, it will prove
boon to future generations. Such
law has been advocated by statesmen
for many years. In the interest of hu
mainly it should have become a law

The cooking of the strawberries
robs them of the peculiar acid which
is not liked by many. Biscuit dough
makes the best strawberry shortcake,
says the Chicago Post. The sweet,
cake method is recent .invention and
not so good as genuine biscuit dough,
piping hot, split and buttered, with
chopped sweetened berries between.
IL Is possible to use whipped cream
with this kind of shortcake.

HOW STATE TAX
LAW Is CHANGED
Date of Tax Sale is now one Week
Later than Formerly-the Pen
atty is now Reduced Extracts
of both Laws Given

a large NUMBER OF the people
of the county do not know about
! the changes in the tax laws
which were made by the last
Legislature. The county treas
urer is anxious that everyone
should know about tn e g e
changes and for that reason ex.
tracts of both the old and the
new laws are given here.
BY the law approved March
3. 1911, the penalty on delin-
quent real estate taxes has been
reduced. The penalty on delin-
quent personal property taxes
remains as under the old law.
The changes made can read
lily be seen by comparing the
extracts of the old and new
laws as given below.
OLD LAW.
On March I, 1911, a penalty
of 8 per cent will be added.
On April 1, 1911, an addition
al penalty of 8 per cent.
On June 1, 1911, an addition
al penalty 8 per cent.
\ On Nov. 1, 1911, an addition
al penalty of 5 per cent.
Making total of IA per cent
up to the date of sale.
Tax sale first Tuesday in De
cember, 1911.
NEW LAW.
On March 1, 1911, penalty
of 5 per cent will be added.
On June i, 1911, an addition
al penalty of 2 per cent.
On Nov. 1, 1911, an additional
penalty of 3 per cent.
Making a total of 10 per cent
up to the date of sale.
Tax sale second Tuesday in
December, 1911.
From these two statements
it will be seen that chenges are
made in the amount of the pen
atty and in the date OF the tax
sale. Under the new law the
penalty attached March 1, is in.
creased from 3 to 5 per cent.
No penalty is attached in April
and the June penalty is reduced
from 8 to 2 per cent. The No.
ve1nber penalty is also reduced,
being 3 instead of 5 per cent.
Thus at the date of sale, the
amount of the penalty will be
reduced from IA to 10 per cent.
The date of sale is changed
from the first to the second
Tuesday in December.
