The only bitterness manifested
throughout the threeshour fight over
the bill came when Rep, Charles
Culver, OF Detroit, introduced an
amendment prepared by Attorney
Fred A. Baker, who represented the
county auditors In the public hear
ings before the house committee on
roads and bridges. The amendment
provided that the machines should
reinain on the tax rolls. Rep. New
ell Smith. introducer OF the bill,
was on his feet in an instant. He
declared that Attorney Baker had
been paid $3.50 for appearing before
the committee and that he had

sail, provided for double taxation
and would have no other result than
to furnish ground for court ac-
tion.
Rep. Noble Ashley, supporting the
amendment. cited the fact that De
trolt paid one-fourth OF the states
road tax and. In addition, was forced
TO construct and keep In repair $50
miles OF city pavement and to pay
half the cost OF the hard roads in
Wayne county. Under these con
ditions Il was not fair. he said, TO

revenue from taxation on $4,000

Rep. Newell Smith, Replying. read

Ford Motor Car Co. in which that
official supported the bill In no I'M

tured his argument. however by re
calling the fact that the Ford com
pany would be placed at material
advantage over manufacturers OF
higher powered cars II the horse
power tax was imposed. He also
cited the fact that the Ford com
pany's property is not located in
Detroit and would not be affected II
the amount wiped of the tax rolls OF
that municipality was doubled.
Rep. George p. Palmer declared
that the method of imposing the
tax was unfair. in that the owner
OF an old car. worth approximately
:. o, would be compelled TO pay the
same tax as the owner OF new car
worth $4,000. inasmuch as the horse
power was the same.
Then Rep. Flowers started the
steam roller. In a lengthy discourse
he reviewed the growth OF the au.
tomobile industry. declaring that II
had made Detroit the wonder city"
OF the world In a space of 10 years;
that the additional revenue derived

POULTRY BREEDING.
Community Poultry Breeding Work Is
Started In Virginia.

The so members OF the Middletown
Va, county high school poultry club have
shipped 800 settings Of purebred Barred
Plymouth Rock eggs SO far this season
The club represents a new idea in poui'
try work--community poultry breeding
1t offers great opportunities for the I'm
provement of poultry stock. as well al
the marketing of poultry and eggs, and
can easily be adopted by many OF the
schools teaching agricultural subjects. A
single flock of about 30 purebred Plym-
outh Rocks forms nucleus for the dis
tributon throughout the district OF eggs
for Matching. The students have formed
q poultry club, and are furnished eggs
from these purebred fowls. But the stu,
dents are not the only ones to benefit
from the flock. Their parents and any
one within the county can obtain q set
ting of eggs for Matching, in payment for
which they return In the fall one of the
chickens Matched from the eggs. The
members of the club and other individ-
uals who obtain eggs to start raising
purebred stock, however, have to pledge
themselves to hatch eggs from this source
only. Thus from this single flock there
is built up in the community practically
one purebred strain of poultry.
The care of the poultry is part of the
schoolhouse janitor's work, and thus the
poultry is systematically cared for by
pne attendant rather than under hit or
miss plan where number of school chill
dren "try their hand' at feeding the
fowls.
Two male birds are kept with the 80
hens only during the breeding season,
and eggs are sold in the open market
when not sold TO club members or indi-
'iduals for setting. To prevent inbreed-
ng, however, the ROSTERS of different
strain may be substituted each spring.
)ne of the United States department of
lgriculture's specialists will this fall Wis
t the school and farms in the vicinity
II Middletown and help select the best
poultry for breeding purposes. These
,reeders will be retained on the farms
IN which they were grown, and thus the |
armer or school child who has once OBJ |
aimed setting of eggs will not need
gain to apply at the school for more.
