REVEALS CLOSE SUNDAY
Four Weeks Meetings Bring 500 to
800 COnverts-Evangelis Gratifed.

With total of between 500 and 600
conversions as the result of the four
weeks meetings, the revivals at the
Tabernacle closed with three stirring
meetings last Sunday, so largely at
tended that every seat was taken and
many had to stand in the aisles and
along the walls, while the Tabernacle
was so crowded in the evening that
quite a number were unable to enter.
Evangelists Haudenschield and
Pugh expressed themselves as highly
gratified with the series and thanked
all who had co-operated with them in
their work, while the ministers of the
churches that joined in the services
gave similar expressions of satisfac-
ton over the results obtained. The
collections Sunday, amounting to
about $1,000, formed the compensation
the evangelists received for their
work.

MAY SELL BERRIES
FOR FRUIT JUICES
Prospects Are New Market May
Be Opened for Berries
Hitherto Wasted.

The enormous amount of berries
wasted in this state last year and in
previous years bids fair to be turned
into a commercial asset, If the efforts
of the state department of agriculture
materialize as expected.
Inquiries have been received by the
department from different parts of the
country as to the possibilities of get.
ting pure fruit juices in this market.
A recent ruling of the federal pure
food commission prohibiting artificial
compounds has sent the syrup manu-
facturers scurrying into the fruit mar
kets to secure pure fruit syrups.
Assistant Commissioner T. o. Nor.
rison Of the department points out that
thousands Of dollars worth of berries
were wasted in counties such as Pend
Oreille and Vashon Island because the
transportation element in the price
made them worthless as commercial
commodity. These same berries, he
AYERS, could have been put in barrel
with sugar and preserved for fruit
juices which will bring a nice profit
later when sold for soda fountain use.
This market, he claims, has been
hitherto closed because almost all Of
the fruit syrups served were chemical
authorizations. He goes so far as to
say he believes the syrup Of such com.
mercial value that money could be bor-
rowed from the banks to finance the
picking and preserving of such fruits.
This plan of disposing Of the surplus
berry stock so it will not be entirely
wasted is said to have been followed
by W. H. Paulhamus of the Puyallup
& Sumner Fruit Growers association
for the last two years and he is report
ed to have received excellent prices
for these juices, though this market
has not been generally known to the
berry-growers of Western Washington.
That there will be far greater de-
mand for fruit juices in this and fu-
ture years, due to the activity of the
federal government in enforcing the
pure food law, Mr. Morrison strongly
believes, and 1t is possible that this
new market for the berries will afford
an outlet for the entire crops and will
serve to maintain the price Of the
fresh fruits.

ON FINES
FOR IMPROVEMENTS
"Agricola" Writes Interesting
Discussion on Taxation Sug-
gests Remedy.

1t was not so very long ago that one
of the ranchers of this county stopped
the editor of The WASHINGTON STAN
DARD in the postoffice and during the
course of the conversation remarked:
"I'm going to write you something on
that fines for improvement business
one of these days." and the editors re-
joiner was, Come ahead-the sooner
the better"
That letter reached the ONCE this
week. It's dandy. The person who
wrote it has apparently made consid-
cradle study Of the subject and he has
the facility Of putting what he has
learned into understandable language.
1t is reprinted herewith as an excellent
exposition Of the farmers viewpoint
of the taxation problem. incidentally

been tested and found satisfactory in

Olympia, WASH, Feb. 2, 1914.
Editor. Washington Standard:
Dear Sir:
"You are nearly right indeed when
you compare taxes on improvements of
your printing plant with the taxes on
new land clearing. both are actual
fines, though no legislator. in this coun-
try may have looked at 1t that way. 1t
is the inherent bad feature Of the prop
erty tax that under the pretty we'll de-
veloped and differentiated economical
conditions of our present age 1t must
work in that direction.
Property taxes as the only resource
or the nearly exclusive resources of
government were alright as long as all
of the population lived under the same
economical conditions, when nearly all
were landholders who derived their in
come by farming their land. Property
taxes correspond under such circum-
stances. to equality, the first principle
of just taxation, and each citizen Is
easily taxed according to his ability,
which includes another principle Of
taxation.
But now when certainly more pri-
vate income Is derived from other
sources than farming a piece Of land,
/. e. from salaries and wages, from
commercial and industrial enterprises,
speculation, interest on bonds and
mortgages, dividends on corporation
shares and the like. 1t might be called
ridiculous IL 1t was not such an ear
nest affair for so many hard working
citizen and If the states development
was not at stake, 1t might be called RI
diculous that according to recent
notice in your paper 85 per cent Of the
taxes in this state come from real es-
tate and Is per cent from personal
property.
at is safe to say that only the
things that are most palpable, real es-
tate and it's improvements, the ma
chinery in the workshops and part Of
the merchandise in stores and factor
les, are caught by this fine institution
that is called general property tax.
And since real estate is most open to
all eyes, and since every assessor
stumbles against new string of barb
ed wire you put around your field, and
since each blasting of stump Is heard
around in the neighborhood. since all
