Southern Pacific Assessments

The fact that the Southern Pacific
also pays on about one million dol
lars worth OF lands is also worthy OF
consideration The present rate #
tax on this unoccupied land is SIS
per acre, the same as unimprove i
state lands.
This law has brought forth the fact
that lot of acreage is being pa,l
for that almost escaped taxation q
few years back. The railroad finds
that so much land is burden and an
effort is being made to rid the cor
alton of such undesirable holdings
The land department is t$f<ing up the
scheme of cOlonizing and opening
such land for settlement I.Ong-term
payments are given and dry farming
methods advocated. Pump wells arc
shown and their efficiency explained,
Had it not been for this dollar and 4
quarter taxation on this land it IS

generally took and the kids were just
as happy as to-day over the all-ab-
sorbing and laming event. A little
later the druggist furnished the petI-
toner with dipped point. the reg,s
lation scratching followed and It
took or it didn't as the case might
be. There were plenty of sore arms
and comment pro and con followed
as to-day
Under the new usage there is even
change. The kids visit the doctor,
who has his vaccination business all
wrapped up in a neat-looking Doubt
ended phial. He carefully cleanses
the patients arm, makes a lot of geo.
metric scratches and then fixes up the
patient This is not all When it is
finished there is a neat little glaao
house, and observation tower or
show case, fastened over the wound.
The boy who has missed one of the
show cases is so disgusted that he
hopes his case won't take The fun
of showing the protected hotbed un-
der the glass is irreSiStab1e It's
more fun than the smallpox and the
