COUNTY AND STATE
TAY LEVY IS FIXED
whitman County Property Owners
Will Be Called Upon to Com
tribute 10 Mills This Year

whitman county property owners
will pay $1S4,103.5S more in taxes
for 1918 than for the year 1912. The
comfy com missioners have fixed the
lew at l 5 mills, as compared with
If mills for state and county taxes
last year. The work has occupied
the commissioners since Monday
morning, a night session being held
Monday night, and it was noon Tues
day before the levy was finally fixed.
The commissioners have been work
Ing hard to cut the levy to the low
est possible point, and reduced the
total amount to be raised nearly
s21 900 from the estimate previously
made cutting the road and bridge
fund $4,000 and the current ex-
pense fund $4204.28. Other funds
we're cut, making a total reduction of
21 900 from the estimate, which
was thought to be the lowest amount
with which the county could do it's
work for the next year.
The cause of the high raise in
taxes is the increase in state ex-
ponses. Whitman county will pay
for the year 1913, $135,815 more
taxes to the state than was paid in
1912. The state levy for Whitman
county was increased 3.41S mills,
from 6.0198 mills in 1912 to 9.43S2
mills for 1913. The county levy was
Increased only .S7598 mills, being
raised to 5.85618 mills from 4.9802O,
the levy for 1912. The total amount
10 be paid to the state will be $377,-
1876, as against $249,306.10 in
1912. The county tax is increased
from $206,251.73 in 1912 to SAL
1926 for 1913.
The increase in the county tax is
due to the permanent highway law,
which requires a heavy expenditure
Of county funds for permanent roads.
The law requires the county to pay
the contractor for his work, but Is
per cent of this comes back from the
land benefited, but must be paid
from the county funds and taxed
against the land collected at future
dates. The county will be reim-
bursed for this Is per cent, but it
will take many months and in some
cases it will take several years to
collect it from the land owners.
The com missioners tried to hold
the levy for county expenses down to
that of last year, but owing to the
building of many roads in the county
we're unable to do so. The state and
county tax levies will raise $685.
b6l.41, of which the state gets $377,-

A VERY BUSY MAN
IS LEE NJ. LAMPSON
Farmers of Benton County Ask Many
Questions and Seek His Advice
on Varied Subjects

That Lee M. Lampson, formerly of
Pullman, but now county agricul-
tural adviser for Benton county, is a
busy man is indicated by a recent re-
port of his work to the board of
county commissioners, which fol-
| lows
Sixteen farmers in different parts
OF the county have signed up to de-
monstrate on from three to 20 acres a
plan to keep the so-called cheat
out of alfalfa fields.
Twelve farmers have asked advice
or feeding dairy cows. Six of them
have signified their intention of
| changing their methods of feeding
Some 10 or 2 scrub dairy COWS are
to be culled out upon my suggestion.
Eight farmers have asked for ad-
vice on handling water-soaked or
alkali fields. Four of them will grow
blue grass and timothy on their wet
! land instead of trying to grow al
falfa on it. Two others will fertilize,
cultivate, irrigate and drain their al
kali land in accordance with sugges-
tions.
Eight or 10 farmers have asked
! for information on handling straw
berry beds after the berries are gath
cred. All accepted suggestions for
handling and fertilizing.
The agriculturist has not spent a
| day without being asked from half
dozen to two dozen questions of
| vital Importance. All of the farmers
are glad to give him methods which
they have worked out in their expert
ence. This information is passed on
to other farmers who are almost
without exception anxious to learn.
Trees have been inspected in 80
orchards and proper spraying and
been recommended. Six men have
accepted suggestions as to clean cul-
| tiyation, a few feet on each side OF
young trees instead OF allowing
clover or alfalfa to occupy all of the
ground and rubbish to accumulate
about the tree. Demonstrations in
pruning have been given in six or
chards and advice on pruning given
in many other places. Some 25 or
80 orchardists have asked for and
accepted advice on cover crops for
orchards.
Four or five farm ers in the dry
wheat belt have signified their inten-
ton of growing corn for silage or
fodder to feed to stock instead OF
raising wheat only. Several in the
irrigated districts have signified
their intention of growing corn. They
will select and test their seed, pre-
pare the ground, plant, cultivate and
irrigate the crop according to direc-
tions.

SURE ENOUGH SHOW
COMING TO PULLMAN
Local Theatergoers VIII Have First
Opportunity to Witness Comic
Opera for Nearly -Four Years

'pCid iof NeufiN fOuf ears
After three and one-half years of
enforced inactivity the theater bug
Is again bu2zing merrily around the
ears of local theatergoers, and is ex-
periencing little difficulty in reviv-
ing the interest which for so long a
time has been dormant. The college
authorities have granted permission
to the Boston Opera company to use
the college auditorium for the pur-
pose of staging the comic opera La
Mascotte,' by Audran, next Saturday
evening, October II, and unless all
signs fail a record-breaking audience
will greet the company which has
the distinction of again placing
Pullman on the theatrical map.
The last play to be staged in Pull
man by travelling company was
The Thief" comedy by Bernstein,
which appeared ON the evening of
June ,, 1910. Nine days later the
| big opera house which for many
years filled Pullman's wants in the
theatrical line, mysteriously took
fire and was burned to the ground.
No other building was available and
from that date until the appearance
of the Boston company tomorrow
night Pullman people have been OBJ
liged to go elsewhere to satisfy their
theatrical desires.
La Mascotte" is typical of rural
life and is one of the most popular
of the old comic operas The scene
is laid in Piombino, Italy, and the
time is during the 18th century. The
| Boston company comes to Pullman
with a good reputation and carrying
cast of II people and it's own
scenery.
A special admission price of so
cents has been arranged. Seats may
be reserved at Watts Pharmacy,
commencing Friday morning.
