"Old Steamboat" the worst outlaw horse
in the West, was shot the other day TO end
his sufferings from blood poisoning, caused
by an injury received in railroad wreck.
"Old Steamboat had thrown the most
skilled tronco busters and no rider had
ever conquered him fairly He was defiant
TO the last.-Dispatch from Wyoming.

They never broke you to their will !;
outlaw they called you, and their laws
At last have laid you cold and still; F;
Scared were your sides from rowelled
heel,
And SCARED your flank from cruel
quirt,
But, spite of what the flesh might feel,
Your dauntless spirit was unnurt.
outlaw they called you--in the dust
Has many a hraggart rider whirled !;
Your strength was fed by wrath most
just,
Your courage was as flag ne'er

You heard the whimper OF the cur
AS meath your hoofs the coward
rolled;
outlaw they called you-hot thoughts
stir
AT what men term the proud and
bold.
Outlaw they called you--dd one hand
In kindness ever stretch toward thee?
Did aught save despot's harsh conf

Fall on your ears, black horse now

With death the one kind act vouch

The BEGINNING.

How shall the boy begin?
BY working with the plants them
selves, by learning to understand
Nature and to love her responsive
ness.
If the boy can have 10 feet in the
back yard for his experiments, well
and good. If not, perhaps he can
have five
If he can raise variety Of plants
1t will hasten his training. But sure
ly he can work with one or two.
He can learn for himself that plants
continually change themselves to
meet the requirements Of the men
and women who grow them.
That nothing in Nature stands
still, that it either goes forward or
backward.
That nothing else in all Nature
responds to the pleasures and de-
sires of man so readily as her plants.
That the characteristics of the par
ent plant are reproduced in its Off
spring, and that parentage can be
varied almost at will.
That due to Natures adaptability 1t
has already been possible to change
the scent, size, color, blooming period
and charm of flowers; to improve ex-
listing fruits and foods to meet the
needs of the present day, and to ere
ate entirely new fruits and food
plants, so that the world may enjoy
a better product at lower price; and
to perfect plants which yield entirely
new substances for manufacture
new chemical elements which have
their definite bearing on lowering the
cost of living.
hope to see the day when a prac-
tical manual Of plant breeding in
words, almost, OF one syllable will be
placed within the reach of all the
young.
But until that day, it is still pos
sible to lead the boy into his oppor-
tunity, by teaching love for plants
themselves, and putting him in po-
sition to study knowledge of their
ways.

bank Society of Santa Rosa.l

A ThOusand-FOld Reward.

What an opportunity, indeed.
To the boy who has genius Tor
the work 1t offers thousand-fold
more reward than has ever been Of
fered genius.
To the boy who has merely intelli-
gence and persistence it opens up the
way TO escape from mediocrity.
Everything we eat, and everything
we wear must be produced directly
or indirectly from the soil.
Yet even now, when we can easily
afford bathtubs, and telephones, and
steam heat, and luxurious travel, We
are sorely hurt to pay the prices to
which the common necessities of
food and clothing have arisen.

MINNESOTA FARMER STILL
DRIVING 1903 CADILLAC

Hardly a week passes that the mail
does not bring TO the Cadillac Motor
car company a letter telling Of the re-
markable service given by one OF It's
earlier models. Owners write that thelr
cars have been driven from 100000 10
100000 miles. Many times they tell OF
particularly hard service performed,
and almost invariably they state that
the cars are still in good condition
No exception to this rule is Peter
Schoen, a farmer. who writes the COM
pany from letters. Mimi, TO let you
know that / am a satisfied owner OF
one of your model A, one-cylinder,
four passenger tOnneau cars. Mr.
Schoen goes on to say that he bought
the car secondhand in 1905, and that
after il has been run for ten years, on
solid tires. over country roads, 1t IS as
good as when he bought it This model
was built in 1903. so that the car mad

the engine is as good now as when It
was built. Il have taken good care or

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PROPOSES
GASOLINE TAX Of 4 CENT 4 GALLON
Vigorous Protest Will Be Made by Motorists Who Point
Out Present Large Revenue Derived From Auto
mobile Business While Horse Drawn
Vehicles Escape Taxation

"HE federal governments proposal
to raise part Of its extra revenue
OF s112,OOO.OO0 by placing a tax OF
one cent a gallon on gasoline used.
and also placing a tax on motor We
hicles. according to horse power which
was first mooted a year ago, has again
been voiced by secretary McAdoo. This
amount OF additional revenue is claimed
to be necessary for the fiscal year end
ing July, 1917
''On the present schedule of car pro-
duetion there viii be approximately
100000 cars in America July I, 1916.
this figure covering passenger cars
only. says the Automobile. national
motor trade publication "On a con-
servative estimate these passenger
cars viii consume S25.000.00 gallons
OF gasoline per year, this being based
on an average mileage Of 5000 per car,
and assuming that 100000 cars will
average approximately 20 miles per
gallon, and that the remainder of the
cars viii average Is miles Per gallon.
This fuel average is too high but makes
the figures proportionately conserva-
tive. On this basis of calculation pas
senger cars alone would produce a rev.
enue of SS.250,000.
But tax Of one cent a gallon will
fan on every commercial motor vehicle
and il is. impossible to estimate the
fuel consumption OF these Further,
there are hundreds Of thousands of sta
uonary engines using gasoline, these
being in grain elevators, on farms, in
factories, and hundreds of other places.
Further. there are thousands of trac-
ton engines employed on farms. and in
other vocations using gasoline. Yet
again there are tens Of thousands of
gasoline farm tractors using this fuel
OF National Importance.
In a nutshell, gasoline is no longer
a fuel used for the transportation of
the rich but is as essential today for
the carrying on Of the nations work
as kerosene is for lighting purposes,
in our farming communities. It is just
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1915-12-25

as unfair to tax gasoline as it would
De 10 tax kerosene. It is practically as
unfair to place a tax OF this nature on
gasoline as it is to place a tax on
food supplies.
why tax the gallon Of gasoline and
not tax the kilowat of electricity?
Electricity is used today for lighting
and for power. There is no difference,
at least there should not be any diff
ference between the manufacturer who
transports his products to the railway
station on an electric truck and that
maker who uses a gasoline truck The
government apparently fails TO see this

tricity.
There is no difference between the
farmer who uses the small electric mo-
tor to pump his water. and the other
farmer who uses small gasoline en-
CINE for this work
There is no difference between the
farmer who uses a steam engine to
thrash his grain and the other farmer
who uses a gasoline engine. excepting
that the government would tax the use
of gasoline for the purpose and let the
use of steam go free.
The electric trolley car would go
untaXed. the steam railroad train would
go untaxed, and yet the up to date
gasoline railway car and the combina-
ton gasoline and electric railway car,
which is proving a paying Investment

Many misconceptions
1T Is to be granted that additional
revenue has to be raised but this should
not be raised in the form of class legis-
lation Of a type that is highly discrim-
inatory. It has been apparently con-
ceived- that the automobile industry is
a fabulously wealthy industry because
excessively large dividends have been
declared by three or four companies.
1t is true that perhaps six or seven
have declared excessive
dividends. but while this is true there

Further it has been argued that
practically one state, namely. Michi-
/ gan, produces all Of the cars in the
country This is far from the truth.

mean saddling a load on Michigan.
rather it will be tax distributed over
all the states, as the buyer viii have
to pay for it.
Vehicles have as much right to pay
special taxes for revenue purposes as
any other departments of our country
but why discriminate among classes Of
