OPPOSES STATE INK on BUTTERINE:
the Days Best Cartoons.

To the Editor of The Times Dispatch:
Sir.-A bill has been introduced bv
Delegate Robertson. of NORTHAMPTON
county providing for a special tax on
butterine or oleomargarinc. 1t states
mat manufacturers shall pay annually
tax OF $50 where the business done
is not more than $4,000, ana $40 addi-
tonal for every $1,000 per nEnum
IL also calls for Il tax Of $40 on any

article on their tables. unless they pay
tho extra tax.
There Is an extra tax on the retail
merchants now OF s4 per month on
colored, and 80 cents per month on un-
rolorcd TO handle this product, and
this should be sufficient
Buttcrine is sold strictly under gov
eminent supervision, and every pound
mat Is manufactured is tested as to
It's purity: furthermore. II is irnpossi-

Inc is practically an impossibility. Can
this much be said for butter?
II 1t were not for butterine the
average city householder would not be
able to have butter on his table, for
tho price would be so high he would
have TO do without II, and instead of
creamery butter retailing ut 40 cents
per pound-uncolorcd buttcrinc 90
cents per pound--as II is now, IL would
BE- so cents to sl.00. This can be easily
understood, when you stop TO consider
that the output of buttcrIne for Chi
cago alone for the month of December
was 9,I3i,6T5 pounds, and with the
output OF many other cities. you can
readily see that it runs way up into
the million pounds. Take this amount
OF buttcrinc out OF the market and the
price OF butter would be far out Of
reach OF the average household. thus
deDriving them Of this necessity.
When the government put special
tax on colorcd butterinc In 1906. the
cry was that 1t was done to protect
the farmer. This was not SO; it was to
protect the butter interest In an in
vestigation held by the government 4
few months ago, the fact was es-
tablishcd that the butter interest met
every Thursday and decided on n price.
