OVER FIVE BILLIONS
Minnesotans Pay Taxes on This
Amount of. Wealth Accord
ing to Report.

The value of taxable property in
Minnesota, excepting that subject ia
gross earnings tax, is 1921, 414,9
according to report made public by
the Minnesota Tax Commission.
The full value of the taxable real
property is $4,12S,245,452. Of this
amount $3,128,245,452 is the value of
all unplatted lands in the state.
The value of the personal property
according to the 1914 assessment, is
$685., O89,4S6. Money and credits pos
sessed by Minnesota taxpayers total
ed $196,5S4 ,3O7 this year.
The personal property assessment
of the state as finally equalized by the
tax commission was $228,893,671 for
1914, a decrease of $5,652,837 from
the 1913 assessment. This decrease
according to the commission was caus-
ed by decrease of the assessed val
lie of household goods and bank
stocks, and failure of the increase ir

as result of the new 1913 law.

BEST FARM INSURANCE
Dairy Cow is the Most Productive of
all Domestic Animals.-Why
Dairying Pays.

(By A. J.. Mcclure, Extension Divi-
sion, Mimi. College of Agricultural
Dairying is the best insurance that
a farmer can invest in against heavy
losses in years of poor crops. The
cows of the state gave a normal pro-
duction in 1914, while the grain crop
as a whole was poor. Dairying has
never failed on account of the season
in Minnesota. 1t is only when mel
neglect the COW and dispose of her
and allow the creamery to close for
want Of patronage that dairying has
failed in a single community in the
state. Prosperity may sometimes
lessen darlington men justly
quit milking when they can afford to
but hard times never should. While
debts are to be paid, or improvements
are needed, or the running expenses
of the farm need to be guaranteed,
dairying is highly important. The
monthly cream check puts the bust
ness of the farm ON a cash basis as
nothing else can.
The dairy COW is the most produc-
tive of all animals. The production of
the average common cow, when prop
arly fed and cared for, is close to s.
300 pounds of milk and 200 pounds of
)utterfat a year. Farmers who give
special attention to dairying have
herds that produce from six to ten
thousand pounds of milk and from
$50 to 400 pounds of butterfat per
cow annually. The production of the
greatest cows seem almost beyond the
possible. In the past year, new
world records were made in both milk
and butterfat production. The cham

TELLING US HOW

There is nothing more irritating tc
the people of a small town than the
air of superiority that people from
larger towns have towards them and
their village. 1t is hard to say just
what prompts the city man to feel
greater than the villager, but he in
variably does, and what makes it
worse, shows it in his actions.
1t is the weakness of city people
this belief of theirs that country peo-
pie are back numbers. The man from
a city concern pays the country man
a visit and shows plainly that he con-
siders the little merchant a very
small potato; but if he were wise
enough to realize the truth of their
respective businesses, he would know
that the back number merchant, as
he looks upon him, is laying by each
year more than the city chap is draw
ing as a hired man from a company
that could find thousand like him
in a days time.
The narrow Drained lecturer drops
into the small town, and at the be-
ginning of his talk, mentions that he
has changed his subject, "for fear
the one announced would be over the
heads of his audience" and then pro-
ceeds to ramble along for a couple of
hours with stale stories and discon-
nected ideas, boring his audience half
to death. The Chautauqua entertain
er, until he has a good deal of exper-
fence; the travelling salesman, up to
the time he becomes of some value to
his house; the transient visitor on a
chance business or pleasure trip; the
young city employee, before he learns
the lessons of the relation of capital
to business, wherever it is employed
all of them make the same mis-
take of misjudging the capacity, the
intelligence and the character of the
country people.
If there is such a thing as super
iority between city and country peo-
pie, the latter have the best oppor-
tunity of securing it. But as people,
there is no difference between those
who live in the cities and those who
live in the country. They all read the
same newspapers, the same maya
zines and the same books; they hear
the same lecturers, and see the same
theatrical performances; they attend
the same high schools and graduate
from the same collegs and universe
ties; they make the same trips, visit
the same vacation resorts, and make
as many excursions abroad; they ride
in the Pullmans as often, and pay
their bills as regularly; and when ev-
erything is counted, it is hard to point
out any difference between them, ex-
cept that the country people have the
advantage of freedom from the life
in throngs, and from the scramble for
a livelihood with great numbers con-
testing for share.
We have no contempt or criticism
for these who prefer to live in a city,
but we do object to their attitude of
scorn for the doings of those who live
in the country or in small towns.
