KEEP OUT OF DEBT

Tho curse of farming in the south is ,.bt. debt brought about by credit rb;la growing a crop. Arkansas farm .,s must get out of this habit. They ,,p nearer this possibility now than .,sr before. It is absurdly wrong i.r 4 farmer to have to ask credit for ,nd for his family or feed for his tam A farmer may we'll go into sbt for a SOW or a cow or mare or Sen for good blow or possibly for .srtilizer but never for food or feed, scept for coffee and sugar and such things. and for flour if he does not grow wheat. Arkansas farmers have iust got to get out of debt and keep out of debt for the living" Every farmer should be tagged who does not have at least fifty good hens, three aws and two or three COWS and a gar dpn for vegetables for all the year. The Dean of the Extension of the University at Fayetteville wants to hear from the Arkansas farmers and
 Arkansas farm women who have found
 ways of making in one year one hund-
 red dollars or more in cash over and
 above the cotton and corn and feed.

Say not farewell! most fearsome word
 We would not speak; For when it's sad accents are heard, It carries sense of hopes deferred The future all seems dark and blurred
 And faith is weak. Say not farewell! like flying fleets

 And live for aye"

CANNOT SHIFT RENT TAX

Mr.. King says a tax on landlords"
must be shifted to tenants or con-
sumers. The tax should be only on
site value, not buildings. A site
owner leases his lot for an office
building for $4,000 a year. If we
take. half of this rent as a tax, how
can the owner charge the tax on ten
ants? School sites are leased for
buildings and the rent is paid to the
school fund, as single takers demand.
Nothing is charged tenants.
Site rent is paid but once The
tenant cares not who gets it. The
same tax on vacant lots will encour-
age more buildings, and the greater
supply must keep down rent Ex-
emption of buildings will cheaper
them, further reducing rent of build
ings. Therefore the single tax must
reduce all rentals and all expenses by
cheapening both sites and products.

REPLIES TO TAX ARTICLE

HEFLIES ~ HN AK ICIEs-
In your issue of the 18th inst, Robert
j. King says that the single taxing
would inevitably result in the trans
ferring of taxes onto the tenants or
the consumers of the goods produced
on said taxed land" y
In making this assertion the writ
er lost sight of the fact that demand
and supply determine price. Can he
or any one else explain how there
would be any less land in the world
or in any city by increasing its taxes?
1t can easily be seen that taxes on
buildings tend to curtail their con-
struction and thereby increase build
ing rent, but if buildings, like land,
were fixed quantities, then taxes on,
buildings could have no effect on
rents. On the other hand, if land be
held for speculative purposes, land
value taxes not only fail to increase
rents but actually reduces them by
forcing speculative holdings on the,
market, which results exactly as
though the surface of the earth had
actually been enlarged, SO that the
tendency OF the single tax is to in =,
crease the available supply of land,
reduce rents and make the produce
ton of goods easier. -- fH..
The only factor not considered is
whether an increase in land taxes
will increase the demand for land suf-
ficiently to offset the increased sup
ply. An increased demand for land
must arise from Increased population
or increased business. Where a mod
flied form of the single tax has been
tried, such as in Western Canada and
New Zealand, it has been found that
it does increase business and draws
population to localities adopting the
single tax and thus increases rents,
but if the system were applied
throughout any large. country or
the world, this increased
prosperity would be so widespread
