OUR HIGH TAXES THIS YEAR
ROWLAND TELLS ABOUT THEM

Representative Dix Rowland Is
considerably amused mt the fran
tic efforts of Jimmy Davis and his
organs to try to show that the big
boost In taxes this year Is due TO
''socialistic legislation" and new
tangled ideas Of the progressives
who have put their oar into state,
county, municipal and school leg
islation to play eternal smash
with the peoples pocketbooks.
THE total increase in the tax
levy in Tacoma over last year Is
1-2 mills" said Rowland. at a
progressive meeting last night at
9th and Bailey streets.
"0f this 2 liz mills is increase
In the state levy.
And this 1-2 mills increase

KEEP STABLES CLEAN.
Filthy Horse stalls Almost Certain to
Produce Disease,

Produce Disease.
Light, air and dryness of bedding
are the requirements for a sanitary
horse stable. In most cases the stable
is at fault. 1t will be ankle deep in
wet manure and soggy trash. The man
who permits such a condition to exist
will use the currycomb and brush
only when he feels like it
Muddy roads, filthy stable floors and
lack of proper care of the horses feet
are nearly certain to result in an at
tack of scratches some time during
the winter.
Scratches is an inflammation result
ing from dirt, filth aud cold, aggra-
waited by driving or working in the
mud. 1t is hard to cure. Prevention
Is easy compared with curing the
cracks and raw sores that accompany
the irritation.
Briefly stated, this trouble may be
prevented by keeping the stall clean
and removing the mud from the horses
feet. If there are no holes to collect
urine and liquid filth in the stable
floor, if manure is promptly removed
and plenty Of dry bedding is provided,
there will be no appearance Of
scratches.

BRIEF DAIRY LORE.

The calf stall should be plenti-
fully supplied with good. clean,
dry bedding.
No dairyman should forget that
his barn is a place where human
food is produced.
Observe with care and note as
q first point that a COW should
have a large and ample sized
body.
a brush or old whisk broom is
handy to brush off loose hair
and dirt from the ndder before
milking.
What the dairy industry needs
. most is an improved breed of
iairymen instead OF q new breed
!. of cows.

i. would be a splendid and most
!. appropriate gift for either the

shipper, even though a special trip be
necessary to take him to the yards.
The other method is designed to be ef-
fective and consists in turning the af-
fected shote into a field with a small
pen only scantily supplied with bed
ding. The pig generally does a good
deal Of fretting along the fence in try
ing to get out, and in a few days this
exercise and fresh air will often be
found to have stopped his humping.
Dust, lack of exercise, sudden change
from warm pens to outside drafts.

cud. says Hoard's Dairyman. 1t would
be hard to estimate the benefit Of haY-
ing water before the cows in winter
when it is warmed to the temperature
of even a cold barn w the system
of turning cows out to drink once or
twice a day from a tank that is too
often frozen. or even II the water is
fairly warm the atmosphere is too cold

UOW COMFORT AND
DAIRY PROFITS.

During the winter, when the weather
keeps the cattle in the barn at least a
part of the time, the question of water
for the COW is always somewhat puz-
nlIng. This is especially i with the
practical dairy farmer whose barn is
not equipped with up to date watering
devices, says Kimball's Dairy Farmer.
These contrivances, which keep fresh,
clean water before each COW at all
times when she is In the stable. are
great advantages. and they are not
prohibitive either in price or in the
difficulty of installing. There is. no.
question that an automatic watering
equipment will pay for itself in a short
time.
The nature of the COW is such that
she should have water with her food.
1t is hardly right or fair to the COW
to feed her dry feed Stwenty-three
hours in the day and then let her out
to a watering tank that Is perhaps ice-
bound and make her stand in the face
Of a northwest gale while she is filing
her system WITH this cold water which
| takes care of the demands of her ma
ture in the economy Of milk produc-
ton.
It is well known that milk is about
S5 per cent water; therefore If a COW
is going to give a liberal flow of milk
she must have a liberal supply Of wa
ter with which to make that milk; not
only this, but her system demands a
certain amount of water In order that
she may be kept in the best Of health
