sHIPPING PORK
FROM MISSOURI

1t would appear that about the
best crop that a farmer could
handle in this section would be
hogs: At the present time the
butchers in this section are ship
ping hogs from Kansas City. By
the time the porkers reach this
valley they retail from 20 cents
per pound up. Il comes mighty
nigh being high-grade by the time
the pork chop hits ones plate.
As pork is marketable from seven
m onihs cid up and always brings a
fancy price in this section it would
seem that the farmer could put in
some profitable time raising pigs
for market. It's a mighty skinny
pig that wont register $50 pounds
at nine months old and there has
not been a time in the past two
years when they did not wholesale
at IL cents per pound. If that
does not come pretty near being
as good as gold mine it is hard
to figure anything better.
The farmer who devotes his time
to cattle raising must expect to
wait at least three years before he
can land prime steer. A nine
mohths old pig is worth nearly
half as much as a three-year old
steer. Pigs come in filters and they
multiply very fast. 1t sounds good
to the man who hasn't farm to
try the experiment on, and if there
isn't money in hogs at IL cents per
pound then there isn't any gold in
a double eagle.
This business of importing meat
from Kanasa City has g funny
sound to the layman and makes his
pocket book look mighty lean.-

Nimrod Eurie. one of the brutal

Outlet at Inlay on January 9Th,
was convicted Of first degree
murder at Winnemucca Thursday
night. 1t took the jury half an
hour to agree upon n verdict of
guilt and fix the punishment at

There were but few people in
the courtroom when the jury
rendered it's verdict. The Hum

the verdict read. He was even
smiling as he entered the court.

though he must have realized,
from the shortness of the time that
the jury had been out, that the
verdict would be one that would
make his life forfeit for his crime.
Last night after the verdict had
been given. Uric manifested the

officers since his arrest. AS he
left the courtroom in custody of

prisoner at the head of the stair

away and backed against the wall,

grabbed the refractory prisoner
and in q moment had the manacles
snapped on one Of Urie's wrists.
thus preventing any possibility of
him breaking away as he was being
taken downstairs and through the
corridors to the Jail in the rear of
the courthouse. 1t is believed that
Uric objected to the hsndcuffs on
account Of wishing to be free of
the manacles as he was taken
through the corridor, doubtless
with the intention of trying to
make break for liberty through
either the front or rear door. III
this was his intention and Uric had
tried to make a break. it is not
likely that the duty of carrying
out the death sentence upon Uric
would ever have been imposed
upon the warden of the State
prison, as Sheriff Lamb is q dead
shot and is not apt to make any
misses when be has such desperate
and dangerous characters to con-
tend with as Uric.

Of the Outlets, will come up in
court next Monday all the jurors
having been excused until that
time In anticipation Of the Uric
case not being concluded this
week. It's anticipated that It will
be almost impossible to secure
jury In this county to try TRAINER,
especially since Urie's conviction
OF the same crime and It would
seem probably that Trainers case
may be transferred to another
county for trial.

Should the above bill be adopted
by the general assembly and signed
by the governor, as there is every in
dication that IL will be, it will neces-
sitate some changes in the valuations
of some of the taxing districts of Ma
rion county Some of the townships

the new appraisement, which will
bring the rate under the valuation as
II now exists would have to be in
creased in order to produce the vol
ume OF taxes produced in 1903. In
seven of the taxing districts of the
county the present limit OF fifteen
mills Will not produce sufficient rev.
enue under the new valuation, while
in only FIVE districts would the rate
fall below the ten mills.
1t is evident from this condition
that the valuation i'm most of the dis
tricts would have TO be increased and
II Is thought this can be done by the
assessors of personal property. Under
the old tax rate IL has been impos-
slble to get the owners of personal
property TO return just valuations,
but II Is thought the new low rate
of taxation viii bring money, stocks,
bonds and other personal property
from hiding and greatly increase the
duplicate, thus making the collection
Of like amount of taxes under the
low rate possible.
The following table gives the total
duplicate Of personal and real pro-
perty in each taxing district, the
amount of taxes which was raised in
each during 1909 and the rate of tax
alton which will be necessary to pro-
duce a like amount when applied TO
the new valuation. The table takes
the valuations of personal property as
returned for 1910 together with the
real estate valuations as have been
certified TO the state tax commission:
