Washington, July 24-Public dis
cussion of the proposed new income
tax came for the first time in the
senate Tuesday when Senator Borah
began an analysis of the income. tax
provision of the tariff bill and a
comparison of conditions in this
country with those in England,
France and other nations where i'm
mense revenues are obtained by di-
rect taxation.
Senator Borah's address was con-
tinued and held the close attention of
republicans and democrats alike
throughout the hour he had the floor.
He declared an income tax, to be
an effective restraint upon the ex-
travagances of a nation and should
be distributed over the small incomes
so every citizen would feel it's effects.
Because of the direct burden of in
direct taxes born by American
citizens, however, Senator Boran said
this principle could not be applied in
the United States.
On the contrary. he urged that the
$4,000 exemption fixed by the Senate
committee be raised to the $4,000
figure fixed by the House under the
leadership of Chairman Underwood
Less than three per cent of the
American people have incomes above
$4,000, Senator Borah said. -
The income tax burden should fall
upon these Weather citizens he de
clared, rather than upon the poor
man already paying a heavy tax
through tariff and internal revenue
channels.

According to a report, the Mil
waukee passenger brakemen will in
the future be requested to learn the
conservation of their vocal powers
while calling out stations on their
runs.
An official of the company, it is
rumored among local employees, was
travelling over the road between Chi
cago and Minneapolis, and was dis
turbed at short intervals by the
brakeman, calling out stations with
voice that would be more suitable
to the "ballyhoo" man of circus.
"The brakeman would stand at the
rear end of each car and shout the
station said the Official, ..'and fully
eighty-five per cent of his words
were indistinet Orders have been
issued that the brakeman shall re-
peat the stations three times in
each car and in soft voice."

From Thursdays Dails
T. N Johnson and John Roberts
have been buying stock in the vicin-
ity of, Mankato for some time and
have within a short time shipped
five carloads of stock to the South
ST., Paul market. The last carload
was shipped on Tuesday night and
consisted of cattle and hogs They
plan to ship one more carload with
in few days and will then leave
until the latter part of August.
In the last shipment made by
these two gentlemen were two wag-
on loads of cattle and hogs pur-
chased from George Johnson of Bel
grade. The prices which Mr.. John
son and Mr. Roberts are paying are
making Mankato a good market and
many farmers are now delivering
cattle here who have not done so
before. Last year these two men
bought cattle in Arlington, Gaylord
and ST. Peter.

The hill leading to Lion Creek,
near Pigeon Hill, is in very bad
condition and farmers who might
otherwise come to Mankato with
loads of farm products. are going
to other places. There are holes in
the road which need filing and it
has been badly washed out in places.
There is also need of having the
bridge over the creek raised so that
the grade will not be so steep.

Listers Inauguration

Seattle, Dec. 28.--Gold braid must
not be unduly prominent at the in
augural ceremonies on January 5 of
Goyernor-elect Ernest Lister.
The people themselves will have
an opportunity to issue the invita-
tions to the festivities, which will
conclude with the inaugural ball on
the evening of Inauguration day.
These were the points agreed upon
yesterday morning at a meeting of
representatives from the Sound
cities, all OF which intend sending
large delegations to Olympia to be
present when Ernest Lister, demo-
crat, takes the oath of office.
The plan agreed upon by which
the committee hopes to give every
one an equally prominent part in the
ceremonies is by sending the invita-
tons to the democratic county COM
mittees of each county, and by select
ing Il score or two of prominent citi-
zens in each county, giving them au-
thority and the necessary invitations
for distribution.
SO as not to make the republicans
and progressives of the state feel
that they are not welcome at the
Joyous occasion, Il general invitation
will be issued for them to attend,
and members of the organization
will be instructed not to make
democracy necessary qualification
OF those to whom invitations are is
sued.
The state militia will be given a
prominent part in escorting the gov
ernor to the place of Inauguration,
and no attempt will be madeyJo OBJ
tain warship or Uncle Sans soldier
boys to do any escorting. 1t is a
agreed the committee.
Specially chartered steamers will
leave Seattle on the morning of
January 5 at $50 o'clock, arriving
at Olympia at l p. IN. Somewhere
between here and Olympia the Seat
tie boats will join other vessels and
the steamship Cheyenne, on which
Governor-elect and Mrs. Lister will
be escorted to the state capital.
The Inaugural parade will be held
between l o'clock and 2:30, at
which time the ceremony will take
place. After the ceremony a recep-
ton will be held. The inauguration
ball will be held at $3.50 o'clock in
the Temple \of Justice.

Green Food for Fowls

During the spring and summer and
fall it is not difficult to supply a
variety of green food for the fowls,
as any kind of tender growing vege-
tation is relished by them, but when
cold weather sets in, it is very diff
ferent, and things must be set aside
during the fall season.
Turnips. cabbages, beets and all
such make good food and furnish a
grateful change. which the fowls APP
preciate.
The scraps and Feelings may be
fed raw, or they may be put in a
pot on the back of the stove and al
lowed to cook gently during the
day, and then thickened at night
with equal parts of cornmeal and
wheat bran. and to be fed next morn
ing as a mash, using care not to give
too much, as when the fowls are
satisfied they will stand about and
refuse to scratch and take sufficient
exercise.

Oyster Shells for Lime

Some years ago a then we'll
known writer condemned the use
OF oyster shell as food for furnish
ing lime so necessary in the construc-
ton of the egg shell. His contention
was that the oyster shell did not con-
tribute lime sufficient for that pur-
pose. However, the New York Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station vetoed
that by proving that a pound of
oyster shell contains sufficient lime
to manufacture about seven dozen
eggs.
The proper way to feed oyster
shell is to have a small box of it
within reach so the fowls may help
themselves at will. Mixing it in the
morning mash is risky, as there is u
likelihood that the hens will con-
sumo more than required, and in
consequence the shells of the eggs
would be too hard. The hens know
best when their system demands
more lime. 1t is a very rare case
when a hen gets too much if con-
stantly within reach.
