RECORD NUMBER OF
DEEDS REGISTERED
MONDAY AFTERNOON
PEOPLE AFRAID THEY WOULD
BE CAUGHT BY WAR TAX IN
FORCE TODAY.
EXPLANATION OF this TAX
1t Applies Only to Deeds Which Are
Dated After Dec. 1, 1914-Stamp
Will Not Have to Be Placed Upon
Mortgages or Upon Checks.

Never have we done as much bus
mess in such a short time as we did
Monday afternoon. The deeds fairly
rolled into the Office for few hours,
and it was about all that Mrs. Nc
Knight and | could do to register
them,' said Sam J. Taylor, county
register this morning.
THE rush late in the afternoon
was greater than it has been since l
have been in this Office. The people
were afraid that they would get stuck
on the war tax which went into ef-
feet this morning. They did not
know how much it was, but they had
just heard that it went into effect
this morning and so they piled in
here with deeds for two or three
hours. There were twenty deeds reg
istered after dinner.
For the benefit of everyone | will
give the Interpretation of the law as
applying to the deeds and mortgages.
There is no tax on any kind of papers,
which are dated previous to Decem-
Der l, 1914. On deds after that date,
which are $100 in value, there Is no
tax. On all deeds between $10O and
$500, there Is tax of so cents. For
every additional $500, there will be
an additional SO cents. There is no
tax on mortgages. These are free
from the tax.
"It is unlawful to register without
stamp those papers calling for
stamps. The stamp is not required
on any checks. They, like mortgages,
are exempt. On notes, two cent
war tax has to be placed on each $1OO,
or fraction thereof"

WHEAT ACREAGE
SIMPLY ENORMOUS
FARMERS ARE STILL SOWING
THE GRAIN AND BUYING
SEED.

Never, | believe in the history Of
Maury county has the acreage sown
to wheat been anything like as large
as it is this year." said a well known
wheat buyers of this county this
morning. I'VE are still selling seed
wheat he continued. "The demand
continues, and almost every day some
one asks us for seed. | do not think
that wheat sowing will be over until
Christmas, in fact | know some farm
ers that will not finish until that
time"
This statement is sustained by the
opinions of other equally as well in
formed, A much larger percentage of
corn land has been sown to wheat
this year than is usual in the county,
in fact, the major portion of all the
land in corn is now in wheat. This
is due to two reasons. First the ex-
pected high price of wheat next sum-
mer and next the favorable weather
of the last two months which has en-
abled the farmers to gather their
corn and prepare the land and SOW
the wheat. Should seasons this win
ter be anything like as good as they
were last winter Maury county's
wheat crop will surpass by not less
than fifty per cent anything in its his
tory.

BLIND STAGGERS
RAGING AMONG THE
HORSES OF COUNTY
FARMERS ARE ADVISED TO BE
VERY CAREFUL I'M FEEDING
THEIR STOCK.
CORN STOVfR Is DANGEROUS
One of the Most Fatal Diseases
Known to Horses and Most Effec-
tive Remedy Is Strong Purgative,
Declares the Drs. Mcmahon,

Blind staggers is raging among the
horses of Maury county. Drs. Nc
Mahon stated this morning that they
had never known more cases of the
disease than at this time of the year
They have calls all the time from ali
parts of the county. The pity of it is
that a very large proportion of the
cases result fatally, in fact, DR.. Nc
Mahon states that it is about the
most fatal disease that afflicts the
horses.
The disease this year is due tc
poisonous foods. Owing to the lone
continued drouth the corn of the
county is of very inferior quality
much of it contains smut and rotten
grains. The stalks and fodder are
nearly all poisonous to horses and
mules. Many of the cases, probably
majority, have been traceable tc
feeding the corn stalks to horses. The
corn was cut in the early fall and
shocked and farmers have been
throwing it to horses and mules with
the ear on. In this way many bad
ears have been fed and much rotten
stalk and smut given the horses.
Drs. Mcmahon advise strongly
against feeding the fodder or stove1
at all to horses at this time. The
corn from the cut stalks, if properly
shucked and inspected and is free
from all rotten ears and is properly
nubbed, can be fed. However, the
preference is given to the corn that
was allowed to mature on the stalks
in the field
1t is easy to detect cases of blind
staggers. The horses get stiff and
nervous. They lose their reasoning
power and stagger about, hence the
name. They are liable to fall any
where at any time. The best remedy
is strong purgative. Veterinarians
use hypodermic injection, but the
farmers are advised to use a big dose
of raw linseed oil and salts. Howev
er, there is only recovery in a small
per cent of the cases.

For the benefit of those who are

we'll to state that it costs $2.65 to get
married these days.
In the old days, the good old times
as they are generally referred to, the
price of the license was only two
bucks" However, the war tax is
on license these day, and the lucky
bridegroom has to pay extra for his
happiness. A bond of $3.50 has to
be given, and the tax is cents pei
500. This makes IS cents extra on
each license that is issued
