touchdown the Badgers had fought
bravely, with all the apparent advan-

carefully select their seed corn and
then cure II properly and annually
plant seed which, upon test. showed a
high percentage Of termination. sub

corn growers OF the state
In curing seed corn Mr. Moore rec
ommends that 1t be stored in the dry

This tax consists of:

Inls tax is based on valuation OF
state property in the state of $685.
187705. and the rate on the dollar Of
valuation is slightly more than 21.2

All the above amounts says the
secretary of state in statement
which accompanies the levy, that is
being sent TO all county clerks, ARE
for education and highways, with the
exception Of the new capitol and gem
eral purposes amounts, and are re-
turned to the people either directly or
indirectly with additional moneys.
The levy of 81 100000 for general pur-
poses is unusual and it is. therefore,
quite natural that the taxpayers of
the state should make a special in
quiry respecting it,
This levy seemed necessary after
a careful consideration of a detailed
statement of the general fund re-
ceipts and disbursements prepared in
confol nifty with the statutes, which
showed there would be an estimated
balance on hand in July /, 1914, Of
$710,81S, without the levy of a spe-
cial tax. This amount clearly would
be inadequate to meet the demands
ON the state treasury prior to a sub
stantial collection of revenues.
1T is estimated there should be a
working balance of $1,500,000 in the
general fund on July 1. 1914, exclusive
of the amount required to meet ex-
traordinary requirements for high
ways and bridges"
