The state board of appraisers and
assessors postponed, until the return
of Secretary of State Graves the ap-
plication for reinstatement Of the
Dayton board of review.
1t is said now to be probable that
the old board, whiGh was removed at
the request of the state tax commits

not be necessary to bring mandamus

Candy Makers WcuId Evade Law.

~0i0y GNdbC law
Columbus.-The candy manufactur-
ers over the state are making an eff
fort to evade the 54-hour-a-week
working law, which recently went in
to effect, on the grounds that their
products were perishable, and to
strictly follow the law would entail
a heavy loss to makers of confections
during the summer months.
Chief Inspector T. P. Kearns of the
state workshop and factory depart
ments has returned from Akron and
Cleveland, where he was in confer
ence with different manufacturers re-
garding the new statute.
"The law does not apply to manu-
facturers who use perishable goods"
said Mr.. Kearns, but the law does
not consider candy under the proVi-
sion. The term perishable refers to
fruits and vegetables that are actu-
ally worthless if left out for several
hours"

Traction Values Are Raised.

Records for increasing tax valua-
tions were broken by the state tax
commissions when it passed upon
four of the largest traction COM
panies in the state. Since the ap-
praisement of railway corporations
began a few weeks ago the commits
sion's average increases have been
300 per cent, but the traction valua-
tions are far beyond that percentage.
Following are the tentative valua-
tions made: Toledo Railway &
Light Co., $2,O24,9OO to $11,232, 900;
Cincinnati Traction Co., $2,SS3,O0O to
$15,00O,O00; Ohio Electric Co., $685.

Roads Complain.

Representatives of each of the rail-
roads before the hearing protested
against the increases. Barton Smith,
general counsel for the Toledo COM
pany said the increase would mean
100000 additional taxes or one-third
of the companys earnings.
Dana Stevens, president of the Ohio
Electric Railway Co., said that his
company leases all but one of its
lines and that it could not bear the
increased valuation, as it had spent
more than $4,OOO,OOO in five years for
improvements.

Bayard District is
Advancing Rapidly
Under Irrigation Land in North
Platte Valley is Yielding
Big Crops.

BAYARD Neb., July 29-(Special. )-Out
in the, western end of Nebraska in the
North Platte valley things are booming this
year. despite the dry weather which has
afflicted portions OF the eastern states.
Crops are looking fine and the prospect is
for big yield Of sugar beets, alfalfa and
small grain of all kinds. This is especially
true of the district around Bayard, which,
from an agricultural standpoint is CON-
paratively new, The splendid showing
which is being made is due entirely to
irrigation,
Bayard is blessed with a very large terri
tory which is watered from numerous
canals, the most important or which at the
present time is the Tri-State or Farmers
canal This Is the first year of its opera
ton down the valley this far, and it is
proving equal to all demands. The farmers
all tell the same story of plenty of water
to use on the growing crops. The country
north of Bayard is being rapidly settled
up, mostly on lands sold by the Payne In
vestment company for the Tri-State Land
company. There is no question but what
these lands are going to prove both valu-
able and very productive, Situated as
Bayard is in the midst OF such a large
and fertile territory, the town is destined
to become one of the best in the valley.
Next year the government canal will be
down this far and will do it's share in
developing the country to the fullest pos
sible extent.

The lands of the California Farm Prod

California, on the Sacramento river at
Butte City, about sixty miles north OF
the state capital and about $50 miles north
of San Francisco.
The Sacramento river is navigable all
the year and boats are plying continually
The Southern Pacific railroad is now build
ing a new line from the town of Arbuckle,
on the main line, north to Hamilton City,
along the banks of the Sacramento river,
which will give railway transportation also.
1t is expected that trains will be running
on this line by Christmas. This will give
both rail and water transportation.
The soil is what is known as the 'Sacra-
mento loam," dark gray in color and vary
ing from eight to twelve feet in depth and
when properly titled and watered will pro-
duce astounding results.
Water is obtained in ineXhaustible guam
titles from wells bored to a depth of about
eighty feet in a very coarse gravel and
rises to within fifteen feet Of the surface.
1t is then pumped by electrically propelled
motors for irrigation purposes.

DOUGLAS, wyo.. July 2s.-(Special.)-
The Good Roads club OF Douglas is doing
effective work toward the Improvement of
the roads of Converse county. Every MEM
Der and every volunteer who could be en-
listed. including nearly every ranchnan
near Douglas, worked all day recently on
the highways. The county was districted
and automobiles took workers TO distant
sections. so that none was neglected. AS
result of the work, chuck holeS were
filled, stones removed. bridge approaches
repaired and ruts filled up. so that the
county highway appropriation can all be
used for bridge building and reconstruction
of new roads. The Douglas Good Roads
club is the live commercial organization
OF Converse county, and while It has not
asked that its city be placed on the ocean

Courtesy on the Rail,

The Illinois Central railway is to estab-
fish school of courtesy. Politeness will
charge and in reasonably willing manner.
II you ask a question of a conductor he
will receive the query politely and IL he
can't answer 1t offhand he will mail 1t to
you next day. In fact it's going to be a
fine innovation.
OF course, II mustn't be carried too far.
For instance, a traveller on a British rail-
way was annoyed over the long delay at a
small station and going out to investigate,
found the engineer of the train cutting the
station masters hair

Any and all of the grains, grasses, nuts
and fruits that are grown in the temperate
or sem-tropical zones will grow and
thrive in this wonderful valley. Figs,
oranges lemons, plums, peaches, apricots,
cherries, all varieties of grapes, almonds,
English and black walnuts thrive in album
dance. The land of the California Farm
Products company is all planted to the
commercial (Smyrna) fig.
The fig tree commences to bear when 1t
is years old, producing about 100 pounds
of dried fruit to the tree and usually
brings 51s cents per pound The trees are
planted twenty-seven to the acre, which
should produce an income of $135 an acre.
When the trees are years old, it is es-
timated that they will increase in bearing
ability about 100 pounds per annum, so that
at years old they would produce 200
pounds at 1900 pounds and SO on, until
they are in full bearing. A 7-year-old or
chard will produce an elegant income on a
valuation of $1,000 an acre.
In this valley land has trebled in value
in the last three years and will quaaruple
in the next three years, as the Panama
canal nears completion, which will make
San Francisco one of the greatest shipping
points in the world.
