ling statement as to the work of the
board and the scope of the appropria
tons:
Relative to deficiencies, have
heard right smart about that recent
Ily. | heard considerable about defici
lencies during the legislature when il
became necessary to make deficiency
appropriations for the maintenance OF
institutions like the asylum, peniten-
tiaries and such institutions until the
close of the fiscal year, and also to pay
outstanding obligations against the
state. In addition appropriations were
made for buildings like the Science
hall at the State university, an abso-
lutte necessity, and building at the
Central State Normal school at Ed
mond, also a necessity, to meet the
crowded condition of that school, In
addition, an appropriation for 100000
was. made to buy the insane asylum at
Norman, also necessity The Vinita
insane asylum is filled with patients
and can not receive any more. The
insane asylum at Supply Is also
crowded to it's capacity. The asylum
at Norman only is available for receiv-
ing new patients. In order to have
good government we must have the
actual, not the pretended support of
the people.
Unless it is absolutely necessary to
use an appropriation it will not be
used, especially If it is to bring about
deficiency after the available reven-
|ues are taken up. We are going to
adjust the state affairs in a practical
way, ascertain the available revenue,
and then apply this revenue under the
appropriation as made by tile legisla-
ture so as to accomplish the best re-
suits for the public welfare. Not one
cent of deficiency has been allowed or
permitted by me since the adjourn
ment of the legislature.
Even where deficiency appropria-
tions were made, as for instance for
summer normals, we are not permitting
all of these appropriations to be spent,
but we are putting limitation on
these expenditures SO that not over 60
per cent OF such appropriations shall
be utilized, the other 40 per cent being
saved"

cut off considerable valuation for
consideration in fixing the tax rate,
although, If the production tax shall
be upheld, it will add somewhat more
to the revenues than was obtained
from that source under the ad valorem
taxation system.
While the assessment has not pro-
ceeded far enough to afford adequate
basis for calculation of the probable
tax rate, it is likely that the rate will
sbe as high as the constitutional limi-
tation, or 9 1-2 mills on the dollar.
This win be considerable advance
over the rate of last year. which was
Il $40 mills. It is due TO the increased
amount of revenue that must be raised
and to the fact that there is no surplus
on hand In any of the funds that is
likely to be available, as was the case
last year when the exceedingly low
rate was made.
Must Raise $3,3os,022.
State Examiner Fred Parkinson has
prepared for the governor an analysis
of the revenue situation, in which he
estimates that the sum necessary to
be raised by ad valorem taxation will
be $3,30S,O22, estimated revenue from
other sources $1,250.0O0, making total
revenue to be required $4,5SS,022.
The sum of $2,924,41l was taken as the
basis for the levy Of last year.
One added factor this year is the
one-fourth mill for the state highway
department, which is in excess of
former leyies, and which was impos-
ed by act of the legislature. The COM
mon school fund levy will be one
fourth of one mill, levy that is fixed
by law. This leaves possible levy
of mills for general revenues that
figure being the limit beyond which
the board may not go under the con-
stitution. The board hopes to be able
to make the levy less than this, but 1t
is not yet known whether it will be
able to do so.
Other Sources OF Revenue.
The sources of revenue that are not
included in the tax rate are uncertain.
1t Is believed by State Auditor e. B.
Howard that he ought to get 100000
as d result of the income tax. This
estimate is based upon the returns
that have been made to the federal
government in this state on the fed
eral income tax The states share of
the Q per cent gross production tax,
estimated upon the experience of last
year, ought to be over 100000. This
tax Is in litigation. however, and if it
should be defeated the revenues from
that source would be upon the former
ad yalorem basis and would doubtless
be less. The price of oil is also a
factor in the amount of this tax, as
well as the production of oil.
Items that have gone to swell the
amount to be raised by taxation are
set forth in the appropriation bills of
the last legislature. They include con
siderable deficiencies that have been
accumulated for several years; mum
Der of new buildings that the state had
to have, an insane asylum that was
absolutely necessary and miscellaneous
appropriations add to the sum TO be
secured from the general revenues to
the extent Of about ss.50O,OOO.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful,
glossy, silky hair. do by all means get
rid Of dandruff, for it will starve, your
hair and ruin it if you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid OF dandruff is to dissolve
II, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moi;ten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, OF your
dandruff will be gone. and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel a hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is Inexpensive and four
ounces is all you. will need, no matter
how muci, dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.
