!. A HEAVY STATE TAX
FEDERAL COMMISSION REPORTS
THEY FURNISH II PER CENT.
OF WISCONSIN REVENUE.
AID VALOREM SYSTEM USED
Railroads Paid S3.2OO.OOO In 1910.
Which Was Largest Amount from
Any One Souree-Total State Tax
Receipts We're Near S6,OoO.OOO.

Washington--That Wisconsin de-
rives about II per cent of it's total
state taxes from corporations and
that this percentage is the greatest
of any of the eastern central states.
Is point made in report on state
taxation OF corporations prepared by
the bureau of corporations.
The report affords a concise COM
parison between the tax laws of the
states in the light OF judicial deci-
sions, practical administration and
revenue returns. In his report Com
missioner Smith says in part:
THE eastern central group differs
from the middle Atlantic group in
using much more extensively the
general property tax for state rev
enue. Wisconsin alone approaches a
separation of sources of revenue, and
It's special taxes yield sufficient rev.
enue for ordinary state expenses.
Michigan and Wisconsin make
elaborate physical valuation of
steam and street railway property.
which, with earning capacity, forms
the basis of state administered ad
valorem taxes. Reversing the ten
dency almost universal elsewhere,
these two states have, with respect
to the taxation of railroads, gone
from the modern gross earnings
method to the ad valorem tax.
Wisconsin derives about II per
cent of its total state taxes from
corporations Ohio, So per cent; In
diana, 10 per cent; Illinois, "a per
cent. In Michigan, revenue from
special corporation taxes is applied
entirely to the school fund, and
equals about As per cent of the total
taxes collected by the state.
I'm 1910 there was received by
the state of Wisconsin from railroads
about $3,200,000, from insurance
companies about $725,000, from
various other classes of corporations
$16S,000, and from incorporation
fees $4,000. Total state tax receipts
were nearly S6.000,000."

Shows that Only 1899 Died in
Wisconsin During June.

Madison.-The total number Of

cording to an announcement by the
Wisconsin state board of health, was
1899. This WAS the lowest number

In June, 1910, the deaths numbered
2,273, in June, 1909. 1880, and in
June, 1908, 1000. The decrease this
year is attributed to the absence Of
any serious epidemics and to a more
general observance of hygienic rules.

again and 1t spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
1t kept spreading until 1t was on his
hands and arms. l bought several
boxes OF ointment gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had 1t about six months when q
friend told me about Cuticura. l sent
and got bottle Of Cuticura Resolvent,
q cake of Cuticura Soap and a box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles OF Resolvent, two
boxes OF Ointment and three cakes Of
Soap he was sound and we'll, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. ! don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
