RAILROAD TAX IS

Board in Quandary About
Teachers Salaries.

To Escape Financial Nightmare

Than Last Year. Is

viii the railroad tax of last year.
which was due this city on April 90, be
paid in time to give the teachers of
Newark's public schools the salaries due
them? This is the paramount question
at present that is before the Board of
Education. Should the railroad tax
linger very much longer the board will
be in financial difficulties never before
experienced in its history. In an effort
to offer some relief the members of the
board at a meeting last night recon-
mended the school budget be increased
sS24,055 more thar last year.
Secretary r.. D. Argue was at a
loss TO explain the delinquency
of the railroad tax money, ex-
cept that he knew the railroads were
inclined to dispute the fairness of the
tax, and he was equally uniformed as
to the tradiness of information regarding
the State school appropriation.
The estimates as formulated by the
board are:
Teachers salaries. day., 81, 794, s6S; teach-
ers' salaries, all year, $500; teachers
salaries, evening, $780, coo; teachers sal
aries, manual training. $50, 40; pensions.
2 .sSG; Fairgrounds, s1S, $40; officers sal
aries, $73, 057; janitors' salaries, s14s,7o9;
incldentals, s7,4o7; printing, $500; text
books, ETC.. SIPS. 4o3. 50; furniture and sup
plies, s114, 424; fuel. So, 1885,; light and
power. $4,000: water. $1,000; rents, s2,seoi
insurance, $17.5co.
This gives a total for the budget OF
1919 of 50, 772, 800. as against 81. 44S, 345 for
1911, making an increase of s324.o55. as
stated.

over last year for SCHOOL purposes
though the figures from the State school
appropriation may make a great differ
ence. In fact, the difference might be
wiped out entirely.
That there may be a different arrange
ment made in the course of the coming
year for medical inspection was mad ap.
parent last night during a discussion Of
the subject. City Superintendent A. b.
Poland coincided with the suggestion OF
Edgar r.. Brown that the employment OF
more nurses and fewer physicians wonld
work to the advantage of the system. 1t
was generally agreed that oftentimes the
visit Of a nurse at a school was sufficient
without the presence of a doctor and than
the services of a nurse were less expei-
siye.

but he should be the best that can be
secured. Some breeders practice keep
ing two males, putting one in with the
hens one day and the other the next
In this way the males are kept in a
better condition, and the chickens are
likely to be little stronger. No roost-

The sitting hens should have 8

should be provided with charcoal, grit
