NEWS LETTER FROM
THE STATE CAPITOL
Over Two and a Half Million for Our
Public SChOOIs-Ten Thousand
Automobiles

OF the total taxes levied for the
year 1911 for all state purposes,
amounting to 5000, ,167 the sum of
$2,587, ,488, or more than one half
has been returned to the various coun-
ties for school purposes as is shown by
statement prepared by the state tax
commission which shows by counties
the state taxes levied for all purposes
and the amounts paid back for schools.
The figures show that three counties,
Kitsap, Stevens and Island receive
back more in school money than they
paid to the state in taxes for all pur-
poses as the result of the operation of
the law known as the "Barefooted
Schoolboy Act" Properly speaking it
is not a school tax although it is called
so, as the money is simply distributed
by the state treasurer after it has been
apportioned among the various coun-
ties by the state superintendent of
public instruction. Kitsap county re-
ceived $500 in excess of the taxes
paid in, Island county $2,oo3 and
Stevens county s2,417. After the
distribution OF the school money there
remained of the 5000, 167 levied by
the state s2,488, ,38o for all other state
purposes, and Of this amount King
county paid 10000 or the largest
sum while San Juan county paid the
smallest or S675.00. King county
also received back the largest amount
in school money or $562,452 while
Pend Oreille county received only
$4,000 or the smallest amount. The
total amount Of taxes paid in by King
county was $1,262,000. Spokane
county paid in $4,000 and gets
back $4,000 while Pierce county
paid in $463, 900 and gets back $685.
900 for school purposes. Chelan
county paid in total state tax of $70,-
oo4 and received back 39,840 or
more than one half, leaving $31, 1,154
for all other state purposes.

Figures embodied in the report of
I. M. Howell, secretary of state show
that for the three years in which he
has held office the total fees have in
creased from 100000 in the three
years previous TO his term to So1o ,OUU,
or an increase of $185 1000, while the
cost OF running the Office has increased
but slightly. The cost of running the
Office for the last three years was $42,-
O20, while the cost in the three pre-
ceding amounted to s36,00S. Secre-
tary Howell has paid particular atten-
ton to the collection of automobile Ii
cense fees, and the collections have
increased from $7,422 collected dur
ing the three years preceding his
term to $40,396 during the three
years he has been in Office, and dur
ing the fiscal year or 19l1-12 the
fees for automobile licenses have been
more than in the two preceding years,

Upon the refusal Of the Puget
Sound Electric Company operating the
interurban line between Seattle and
Tacoma, to repair its track and road
bed, upon the ground that the public
service commission in cutting rates
for the benefit OF the general public
have curtailed its income, the public
service commission has issued slow
order for all trains on that line; over
certain sections OF the track they must
reduce their speed to IS and 20 miles
an hour. The state track inspector
accompanied by the state engineer
went over the roadbed and in places
found it extremely dangerous as the
ties were rotten and spikes loose, but

the company says it cannot afford to
make any repairs, so the commission
directs that its trains run slow until
the necessary repairs are made.

To find the beginnings of sea lanes
of travel. you must go far back to the
beginning of things, to the days when
meg first LeatgEed On the sea and llt
pushed timorously from cape to cape,
anchoring by night and rarely sailing
out of sight of land. The Phoeniciah
mariners, who sent their galleys
through the Pillars of Hercules and
up to Ireland for cargoes of tin, were
among the first to map out recognized
routes for sea commerce, and one
cannot resist a deep respect for their
daring in thus exploring way that
their ancestors must have looked upon
with wholly superstitious dread.
In the ancient world, it is true, the
ocean lanes were not many. Princi-
pal among them were the several
courses from the Pillars of Hercules,
either along the African coast, via
Carthage, or the coasts of Gaul, Italy.
and Greece, and so on, to the COM
mon base of all, the ports Of Asia
Minor, where the commerce Of the
ancient world met and was sifted and
then redistributed on it's way to thou
sand smaller marts. Countless less
important routes branched out from
these, carried them on or projected
into limited areas of water, surround
ed by large populations which had
commerce of their own. In every case
the paths of the trading galleys were
invariably the same. The middle OF
the Mediterranean was probably sell
dom furrowed outside of the few
tracks pursued by vessels travelling
from one side of 1t to the other, say
| from Carthage or Alexandria to Ath'
ems or Rome. Men crept along the
coasts or rowed uncertainty from
island to island, unless they could no.
| help themselves.
And it is strangely true that nova
days, when the ocean lanes are sc
much greater in number, so incompar
ably far-fung in character, the same
general conditions hold good on the
grander scale that has been assumed
The waters of the world-or that por
ton of it which is to any extent in
habited-are criss-crossed in every oil
rection by innumerable paths followed
by vessels, both sail and steam; but

in which a sail or steamships smoke
are not sighted for months on end
What vessel blown into the middle OF
the vast tract in the South Atlantic
roughly delimited by the routes fol
lowed by vessels from North Ameri

Teacher Has Her Own Farm.

Miss Anna Nedobtyty, teacher at the
Franklin school, has demonstrated her
ability as a practical farmer by raising
asparagus on her fxe-acre country
home near Davis Crossing on the
White Bear road.
After 25 years Of teaching in the St.
Paul public schools Miss Nedobyty de-
termined to try her hand at vegetable
gardening.
She first decided on the bee indus
try. but after investigating gave it up
because of the amount of time it takes
to care for the bees. She then spent
a summer on a berry farm to learn
how to raise berries. That was aban-
doned because of occasional failure of
crops. After consulting with experts
on farm products she decided on as
paragus, because crop is certain re-

soon make the first cutting, and
she declares she will have a good
yield.

that time Miss Nedobyty has lived
there each year from April until De.
