HOW UNCLE SAM SPENDS YOUR
INCOME TAX DOLLAR.

The American Magazine sent Ray
stannard Baker to Washington to trace
your income tax dollar and report
penny for penny, exactly how Uncle
Sam spends it. The result Of his IN.
vestigation appears in the August mum
Der. Under the indirect method Of
taxation by which we still continue to
raise most Of our revenues, few peo'
pie felt any concern as to what the
government spent, but with a direct
tax like the income tax several undred
thousand Americans will feel this year
for the first time, just what it means
to help buy warships and pay for un'
necessary post-offices. Following Is
part OF Mr. Bakers report:
1.-The very first thing that struck me,
and struck hard, was the fact that, al
though We have had no great war In
fifty years (and only a little one six
teen years agol, over sixty cents Of
every dollar that Uncle Sam collects
from you and me directly or indi-
rectly) goes for military purposes in
cluding continuing expenses Of past
wars-pensions.
II think that few people realize what
this means-in a nation which consid-
ers itself peculiarly devoted to peace.
"Sixty-three per cent to the Army,
Navy and pensions, and only thrifty
seven per cent to pay all the other
vast and useful purposes of the govern
ment excluding postal service and the
preposterous sinking fund-reQuired
by law, but never provided in fact
This thirty-seven per cent only Is a.
vailable for building the Panama Can.
al, improving our rivers and harbors,
supporting the Indians, encourag ging
agriculture, public health and educa-
tion, to say nothing of taking care Of
the entrie machinery Of civil govern
ment-Congress, Executive, Courts
and the diplomatic and consular ser.
vice.
I'm the estimates for the new year
the expenditure Of the Government for
all purposes with the exceptions q
bove stated) reaches the vast sum OF
s740,000,000. OF this $466,000,000 60
for war purposes and forty-fve pei
cent of this goes for pensions, retire
ments, and interest on war debts"

The latest and best estimates OF
the value OF the crops now maturing
in this country is ten billions Of dol
lars.
This is new wealth, virgin wealth,
wealth never spent before, wealth un'
tainted and unspoiled. It means that
this country will be ten billions richer
than it was last spring.
But what does ten billions mean?
Does it mean anything to you? Does
your mind expand any wider to take
in the concept of ten billions that
it does to take in the concept Of ten
millions7
Yet ten millions is only the thous-
andth part of ten billions?
The New York World has been
trying to convey an idea Of what it
means by comparisons. Some OF
them follow:
Ten billions would buy all the real
estate in New York and Chicago at
assessed valuations, and leave a
princely fortune over.
Ten billions would pay every pen
ny of the tremendous war debts OF
France and Germany.
Ten billions would pay off our own
national debt nearly ten times over;
it would pay its interest charges 435
times.
If next years crops are four hun.
dred millions less than this years,
the 1914 and 1915 products Of the soil
would buy every railroad in the coun'
try at the 1911 capitalized valuation
"Our iron YIELD" says the World,
rs incomparably the greatest Of the
nations; the industries it feeds are
called basic. Yet our iron product
is only about one-twenty-third part
Of that Of the FARMS"
This years field production will be
worth fourteen times the value of the
annual coal output at the mines, sev
enty times the value Of years yielG
Of petroleum.
This years crop will be worth
seventy-five times as much az the
latest reported annual product Of golt
and silver combined. It is greater
than the entire worlds stock o.
coined gold and silver. IT IS MORE
THAN TWO-TH1RDs OF ALI
GOLD DUG, COINED AND CON
sUMED IN THE ARTS IN ALL THE
WORLD SINCE COLUMBUS D1sCov

Potato Market Strong.

Portland, Ore, Sept. l2.-POtato mar
ket continues to show much strength
locally and at other points along the
coast Local supplies, while coming for
ward somewhat more freely than hereto
fore since the season started, are still
short of general requirements.
Sales of best stock are continued
strong at $l.35 GENITAL generally along
the street and in some quarters there
are antieipations that this price will
hold for some time. Yakima stock is
being offered again TO the trade here
and netted gems from there are quoted
at the same price as local offering. A
carload was reported in by one house
during the day.
With a smaller crop of potatoes along
the Pacific slope than had been gener-
ally anticipated and with the American
crop showing smaller total than was
first indicated, the outlook for the po-
tato price is seemingly improved,
This year is likely to show greater
diferential in price of potato offerings
than usual, owing to the fact that very
large per cent of the crop is of small
size, due to the prOtracted dry weather
during the growing season. Large
sizes are much scarcer than usual.

WATER SUPPLY OF AN ARMY
MOST IMPORTANT PROBLEM

The water supply of an army is one of
its most important problems. The ire
mendous loss OF life in the Spanish Am
eriean war due to drinking impure wa
ter would be so greatly exceeded in this
war OF. gigantic enrolment, that the fig
ures would startle the statistician. But
the army drinks pure water, purer,
perhaps, than tae civilian.
The chief problem in locating a camp
is its nearness to water supply. On
the march, the average consumption of
water is one gallon for each man. In
camp, the average increases to five gal
Ions for the man and ten gallons fos
each horse.
A sanitary corps of water experts ex-
amines, tests and relieves any chance of
contamination, before a single drop is
drunk. Locations for drinking, stock
watering and washing are then deter
mined When it is considered that with
a mobilization of 100000 men in camp,
a daily supply of ~. million gallons are
required for man alone, the task of pur-
iiIeatiOn seems tremendous. The effect
of contamination on force OF 100000
men is also gigantic.
The methods of publication are var
led but simplicity is the underlying mo-
tive of them all. During our recent oe-
eupatiOn of Mexico, each company was
supplied with waterproof bag with
weight of only six pounds. With
capacity of 30 gallons sufficient to fill
the canteens of the entire company, the
water is purified in five minutes by
merely inserting a small tube, filled
with nynocholate of lime. The tube is
small, easily carried in the pocket, and
its contents will make any water, how
ever impure, safe for drinking purposes.
The modes of drinking water purifica-
tion differ from general treatment only
in the methods employed, Potassium
permanganate, various forms of lime,
and numerous designs of small filters
are used Appliances are usually as
small as is possible to make them and
generally of pocket size.
The English army uses a portable fill.
ter for use in camps.
The water is pumped from stream
or well and passed through pipes to an
automatic filtering apparatus. These
water carts accompany the first.line
