into the school fund and two into the
road fund.
IF this personal tax could be rails
ed to six dollars, putting half of that
sum into road fund, we would then
have enough money available to make
road improvements without levying
special assessments. 1t seems to me
that is the best way to solve the rcao
tax problem" said Supervisor Petrie.
such a change would mean that
this city and county alone would get
something like 100000 Tor roads a

sum and sufficient to do a great deal

srhe club discussed the two new
street Improvement laws at some
length. They had extended an inyi-
tation to the supervisors to attend
the meeting, and explain the statutes.
Supervisors Petrie, Pacheco and Mark

all took some part in making clear
so far as possible the matter in which
the laws win work out. There are still
several dark spots in it not quite

president of the club, F. Schnack, is
q lawyer of more than usual ability,
ana he has given much time to the
study CT the laws, and was able, at
the meeting, to give light to several
obscure points In the statutes.
Supervisor Pacheco announced that
he had discovered Joker" in the
statutes. He explained that by this
Joker property owner, who held 50
per cent of the land in an improve
mont district, would force the other
property owners to bear their part of
the expense for street improvements
or extensions, without regard to
whether or not they wished the i'm
provements to be made, AS a reply
to his statement, it was pointed out
that it was left with the supervisors
to tx the area OF any district, and
that they could therefore see that one
property owner was not given such a
powerful position as respects other
owners.
There was some uneasiness express
cd regarding the district which the
supervisors will form for the School
street extension. The property own
ers in whatever district they form
will be assessed to the extent of the
cost of Lne extension, which will
amount to about $4,000 Supervisor

to the fact that Ena road YVES on Unit
ed States government land. and that
it would be necessary to get the<Per-
mission of the War Department at
Washington before laying the pipe.
Harry L. Strange, manager OF the
gas company, took the matter up with
General Funston. Strange told Cen
eral Funston that he had no idea that
the roadway was government prop
erty, and that he would have presum-
ed. even If he had known it belonged
to the government, that inasmuch as
it was public thoroughfare he would
not be required to get special permits
sion from Washington to lay the

Under the advise of General Fun
ston Strange has sent request to

soon to receive his permission to pro

mission is received, the pipes will be
put in quick order to Waikiki, and

PROF. N. N. SCOTT
TALKS AT
J. N. c. A.

An interesting and scholarly anal
ysis of a present perpiexing problem
was given in Cooke hall, Young Mems
Christian Association building last
evening when Prot. NJ. NJ Scott. prin-
cipal OF the Mckinley high school,
delivered an address upon the subject
"The High Cost of Living"
II noticed in recent description OF
the great liner Imperator that this
ship is fitted with one hundred suites
of rooms for which passengers are,
charge $4,000 per passage. Think of
that, $1,000 for man and his vile
to spend in transportation in five or
six DAYS. On large scale that is
typical of the extravagances which
cause our people to complain over
Eigh costs. Man should have abund-
ant necessities for himself and his
family, he should have many of the
eonyeniences and comforts and few
CT the iuxufies, but CANDY ostenta-
tions for SHOW of wealth should be
beneath the dignity of human nature, !"
said Professor Scott.
The speaker showed the difficulties
in the way of an analysis of any So
cial or economic phenomena. The
multitude of conflicting and parallel
causes and factors will battle even
the keenest of observers so that an
attempt on my part to put my finger
on some one cause, and proclaim 1t
as the secret of our trouble >would
not be possible" he said.
Several theories have been adj
ranced by different students. Some
would ascribe the difficulty to fluctu-
stions in the market value of gold but
this hardly seems tenable now be-
cause of. the small change in gold
yafue. as compared with the size OF
the, market, in late years. Others
have claimed that, our trusts and
combinations of big business keep
prices up. while certain political par
ties point to our high tariff wall as
keeping out foreign competition and
allowing excessive profits to our man
ufacturers In spite of any such
causes our secretary CT Agriculture
shows US production of foods and
raw. materials which increases every
year, yet prices continue in their sky
ward direction.
TN my opinion we are living too
much on delicacies and not enough on
the substantial elements that used to
constitute cur necessities and com
forts of living. The small boy de-
pands his money for the movies, no
matter what the status Of the family
exchequer As he grows older he
must ape the latest fads and fancies
for young men and later is not salts
fled unless he props his heels on the
pedals of an automobile. These
things demand money and money be-
sond the apount most men are able
tc produce. If We. win learn to live
at a pace which we set, each mar
for himself, and within our individual
/ ability to wealth production We viii
have far less cause for complaint a.

A Serum For All Fruit Tree
Complaints.

The attention of the Missouri
Agricultural Experiment Station
Las been called to what seems to
be an organized attempt to hold
up Missouri fruit growers by Of
fering them a worthless mixture
which is guaranteed to cure all
complaints of fruit trees. The
first reports came from the vi
cinity of Moberly, Missouri. Sim
liar reports have come from other
stateS in the west.
Those attempting to sell this
serum pose as authorized repres-
cntativeS of the West Virginia
Agricultural Experiment Station,
and in order to make their bust
ness bear more weight they
claim to be cooperating with the
United States Department of Ag-
rlculture and the Missouri Agri-
cultural Experiment Station.
These men are openly violating
the Federal Insecticide Law
which was passed two years ago,
end are hereby laying themselves
liable to fin and Imprisonment.
1t is the duty of the Missouri
College of Agriculture to investi-
gate and recommend remedies
for pests and diseases attacking
fruit trees in Missouri. Fruit
growers are warned against
spending money for any quack
serum which is guaranteed to
cure all complaints. Each partic-
ular pest and disease requires a
specific treatment, and there is
no such thing as a serum that
will cure all complaints such as
hight, borers, cankers, etc. An
attempt will be made to run
down and prosecute these men
should they continue to violate
tie laws, Farmers and fruit
growers should promptly notify
II e Missouri College of Agricul-
ture at Columbia of any attempt
TO sell this quack remedy.
