Rushing is also very enthusiastic
over the Haskell country. He says
there is a sheet of water under that
country that may be had by dig
ding to depth of from Is to 20
feet, and that any kind of crop will
grow and thrive.
Mr.. Rushing has $50 acres in cul-
tivation this year which includes
about 80 acres in cotton, 40 acres
in grain and the balance in corn
and feterita. He thinks his crops
win compete favorably with any in
Ellis county.
The Haskell country, according to
Mr.. Rushing. is an ideal stock coun-
try and the people are combining
stock raising with agriculture with
excellent results. He says there is
great deal of travel through that
section of the state and that many
people are drifting towards the
west.
Mr.. Rushing will spend few days
here with friends before returning
to his home.

KETCHIKAN WANTS CANNERY TAX ONl
 CAINNERIES IN CITY

KETCHIKAN. July 26.-The com mercial club of Ketchikan, fearing that the Department of Commerce fisheries bill might become a law. has passed a resolution asking that it be amended so that the license taxes paid by canneries located within municipalities shall be paid To the clerk of the United States district court and by him to the municipal treasurer for municipal purposes. Under the Department bill half of all the cannery taxes would be paid into the Federal treasury and half into the Terri torial treasury.
 Under the law as it now is all of the taxes on the canneries outside of the municipalities is paid into the Alaska fund and that collected from canneries inside of the municipali- ties eventually finds its way into the municipal treasury.
 The proposition is one that con- cerns Ketchikan to a greater extent than any other town in Alaska, for it has four canneries within its mu- nicipal limits two of them new canneries erected this year Last year the Ketchikan municipality cole
