Farm Notes

1t is not often that agricultural pub
locations or local newspapers let COM
mercial advertisers use their space
without paying literally for the privi-
lege, but recently complete fertil-
izer" manufacturing concern, anxious
to take advantage of the increased
interest in crop production among the
farmers, as we'll as the ignorance of
the average publisher, with reference
to the subject, has been putting one
over" on some Of them by securing
the publication of articles bearing an
educational sounding title, but which
are carefully written for the sole
purpose OF fooling the publisher and
advertising their manufactured fertil-
i2er.
OF such methods of misrepresenta-
ton c. V. Gregory, a district director
of the Illinois Farmers institute has
the following to say:
The middle west soil improvement
committee of the National Fertilizer
association is running a series of ad-
vertisements in some of the agricul-
tural papers. These are headed Soil
Improvement Talks and are signed
by the middle west improvement COM
mittee.' There is little indication in
the advertisements that they are de-
signed to sell fertilizers, and no men
ton is made Of the National Fertilizer
association.
1T is a pleasing sound for the ear
| of the fertilizer manufacturer, that
name middle west soil improvement
committee An educational sounding
name like that gives him that philan-
thropic feeling that comes TO a man
who has just endowed a university
or pensioned a president. Why spoil
| the impression by saying anything
about fertilizers? Let that come later.
! "Of course the middle west soil
! improvement committee is education
al. The fertilizer men admit it. What
was it organized for, if not to educate
the middle western farmers to buy
! expensive ready-mixed fertilizers? Too
long has the middle western farmer
pinned his simple faith TO the manure
pile and the clover field. with occasion
ally a car load of rock prospsate or
limestone to help out. OF what use
are these things in filling the pockets
of the fertilizer manufacturers? The
eastern farmer commits no such grew
GUS error. Obediently he dumps gen
erous part of his profits each yeal
into the Golfers of the fertilizer mixer

Educate the farmer, the poor be-

What an insult to the middle west

sent their arguments in a straightfor-
ward way over their own names as

guise their selling talks by calling

And we would like to ask, why do
publishers accept this dope from I'M
! known sources when there is such a
! 90 iotn DO %
issued by our agricultural experiment
stations and the authorized public agen.
cies for the dissemination of such in
! formation.
Those who urge the submission by
! the present legislature of an amend
ment to the revenue article of the
i constitution along the lines recon.
mended by the Illinois special tax
commission, declare that such a step
will be conservatively progressive, and
give real relief from an antiquated tax
system that is unavoidable therefore
immoral and unjust. They point out
that in states which have c;ung too
obstinately and too long to the gener-
al property tax, the tide of reaction
has set in strongly toward the other
extreme-the SINCE tax, or land valua
ton taxation.
This is particularly evident in such
of these backward states as have the
initiative. because the single takers
always have sufficient force to circu
late initiative petitions and put theil
pet question on the ballot. In Mis-
souri, the people voted down the sin
gle tax amendment last November, bu
the single takers will try again at the
first opportunity. In Oregon they pu
: their amendment on the ballot in 1905
and It was Overwhelmingly defeated
by a clear majority of all those voting

at the election. In 1910 they put up
similar proposition, but led on w;ta
the statement that It's aim was 70
wipe out the Objectionable poll tax,
and the affirmative prevailed although
it was only 81 per cent of the total
vote cast at the election. Last No
vember the voters of Oregon adopted
an amendment repeating the single tax
victory of 1910, but w. S. U'Ren and
his single tax followers say they will
try again again in 1914.
The theory of the single tax is that
land should pay all taxes; improve
ments and personal property none.
Harrison b. Riley of the special tax
commission, has said of it: THE real
gist of the sing.e tax theory is that
the owners of vacant land will be
compelled to erect buildings or be eat
en- up by taxes. This, in my judgment.
is not taxation, but another attempt
to repeal the law of supply and de-
mand"
Those who favor the tax amend
ment, proposed in Illinois, deem it for
tunate that agitation for relief from
present conditions takes the sensible
direction OF seeking TO tax justly es-
Gaping property, instead OF attempt
ing a radical change for which econ
omic conditions are scarcely ripe

Mrs. Bat says nix. Bat says-well,

Ned smiled YEARLY. MY dear,
there never was a cause yet that was

"But-Estelle- we always thought
she was to blame" said Ellen in a
puzzled tone.
1t seemed strange to be talking
about Estelle Bromley once more; she
and Estelle had been schoolmates and
dear friends, but loyalty to the
brother she loved had prompted Ell
len TO blame Estelle for the broken
engagement.

strong will that lay behind her APP
parent gentleness. She had bitterly
blamed Estelle Bromley for her part
in Ned's Unhappiness. and now that
the other side of the story had reach
ed her she was quite as eager to ex-
onerate the girl.
To Ellen she said little Her lips
pressed firmly together and her nee
dies flying in and out Of the shawl
she was knitting she fell into an I'M
accustomed silence. Mother love was
planning ond plotting.
The week went slowly by. Every
morning, at daybresk, Mrs. North
rop tiptoed across the wet grass to
the hedge and peered through to see
If the pink rose bush in Bromley
garden was abloom. There were five
/ buds on the bush, and each day they
swelled and grew larger until the day

/ ready to burst into bloom.
Estelie had arrived the night be-
fore. They had seen the station
stage stop at the door and Mrs

watched Estelle's tall, graceful fig
uTe alfght and run up the path to
meet her father and mother. Ned
was reading in the sitting room and

She laid her hand on his arm and
looked up at his face. which was
white in the moons light. For a
long time he stood thus, very silent,
battling with his pride.
He looked down and saw slow toars
folling down his mothers cheeks. He
thought they were falling for his IA
theirs memory-he did not know
that now she was thinking only Of
the sons happiness.
"I'n go, mother" he said gently,
laying a hand on her shoulder. Sud

and was gone.
