HOW MUCH DID HE LOSE?
COME ON, ANSWER QUICK

LOS ANGELES, Cal. Oct 17.-De-
tectives at the central station found
an arithmetical problem. They also
found the answer, and said 1t was
very, very simple, but not until after
many pencil points had been blunted
and several pads OF paper used up.
Mrs. J. Klieve. No. 123 North Bunk
er Hillave.. reported that she had
been swindle0 out OF sum OF money
from a short change artist" Two
gold coins--an eagle and a double
eagle-and 1896 In silver figured In
the transaction.
The fiim-fam man, well-dressed
stranger, walked into the store and
ordered five-cent cigar. He placed
a $40 gold piece on the counter. Mrs.
Klieve gave him the cigar and 1896
In change. He then picked up the
$40 and placed IL with the silver. He
asked that Mrs. Klieve give him the
$40 gold piece, which he had seen In
the cash drawer, In return for the
1895 he showed toward her. She did
SO. The transaction occurred rapidly
and the man was outside and away
before she realized that she had been
fiim-fiammed.

The last Of the series of cards, No. %
issued by the state forester, shows very
plainly the income towns lose when Their
tax assessors over-value timberland
This card is very timely, for this com.
ing spring all property will be revalued
If the tax assessors put fair valua-
ton on timberland they will encourage
owners of immature timber to hold ii
until mature, and owners of mature tim
Der to cut it in such a way that another
crop, more valuable than the present
will begin to grow on this same land
On the other hand, tax assessors who
over-value timberland viii force the
owners to cut all land clean and to cut
many young stands before mature, in
order that the taxes may not eat up all
of the final returns.
A forest fire, or any other similar
force, which would clean off all the tim
Der in a given town, spoil the produc-
ing ability Of the soil, drive the wood
using industries out of town, decrease
the population, and thereby greatly
raise the taxes for the remaining prop
erty owner, would be considered men
ace. The tax assessor who over-values
timberland, especially young timberland,
brings about just those results.
Incidentally, it may be remarked that
Young timber, valued at its present val
lie for cutting, is over-valued because
compound interest on each tax paid un-
til the time it is fully grown must be
added to the actual taxes paid. This
factor is so great that, according to the
best yield tables. in 80 years two per
cent tax on stand of white pine re-
valued every four years will amount to
nearly so per cent of the final stumpage
value.
Examples are to be found in Michigan,
and many other states, where this has
been carried to its natural conclusion.
In many towns of New Hampshire, and
a few in Vermont, the detrimental eff
fects are beginning to be felt. In view
of these facts every real citizen should
use his influence to have timberland
valued conservatively, as it has been in
the past, in most towns.
