CITY is KILLING
WEEDS BY A TAX.
Los Angeles Novel Experiment In Civ
ie 6etterment Success.

Los Angeles. Cal. is embarked on
the novel experiment OF taxing It's
weeds out OF existence. and the expert
ment has aroused so much interest
among those who study municipal af-
fairs all over the country that 1t is the
subject of a special report by Ethel
Cleand to the National Municipal
league
"Twlce year. in August and April,
she says, 'in accordance with an ordi'
nance OF July. 1912, owners. agents
and persons in possession OF property
must remove from their sidewalks,
property. lands and lots all noxious
weeds and vegetation except such as
are cultivated for use, ornament, food
or fuel, all dead trees. tin cans, rub
bish, refuse and waste material OF all
kinds which may endanger or injure
neighboring property or the health wei
fare of the residents of the vicinity;
otherwise the board of public works
will remove all or any Of these detri-
ments to civic beauty and hygiene and
to insure payment for their removal
and collection assess the cost, together
with 20 per cent thereon to be added
to cover interest, upon the property.
This assessment is known as weed
tax. All weed taxes unpaid on the
last Monday Of November of each year
become delinquent, and 10 per cent is
added to the amount of the tax when
thus delinquent and a delinquent list,
with an accompanying alphabetical in
dex of names. is published once week
for three successive weeks in Los
Angeles paper, with a notice appended
declaring that unless these taxes are

PREVENTION OF PNEUMONIA.
II Is Largely a Question Of Personal

Wasted Medicine,

There is one loss sustained by drug
gists that very few people know about"
said the experienced clerk THAT is
in the prescriptions that have to be
made over, the same as clerks. stenog-
raphers. writer's and artists no matter
how painStaking occasionally have to
do their work over The most careful
drug clerk in existence is bound to
make mistakes sometimes in measur-
ing and mixing.
"He may pour in too much of some
kind Of liquid or sift in too much Of a
certain powder In most cases the
overdose would not really affect the
value of the medicine. but the con-
sclentious clerk is not going to take
chances on numbering anybody. so he
throws away the whole mixture and
makes up another prescription. New
