National Grange Committeeman viii
Recommend Dual Tax System.
Washington, ID. C.-The chairman
of the committee on taxation for the
annual session of the National Grange
to be held in this city in November,
announces that his committee will
recommend the dual tax system, adj
vocated by r. o. Richards, for their
consideration and endorsement.
The dual tax differs from the single
tax, advocated by Henry George, In
that it standardizes the assessment
of land, and does away with assessors
and equalization boards for ~protracted
periods, and provides for a small uni
form income tax in addition to a tax
on land. 1t allows all land owners
to deduct five per cent of the assessed
value Of any tract Of land from the
income of such land before paying an
income tax from that particular tract
OF land. 1t also exsmpts all kinds Of
improvements and personal property
from direct taxation. 1t make the in+s
come tax a lien on land and business,
and applies the registration laws as q
penalty for failure I'd report or pay
the income tax.

1t is said that the most experienced
horsemen in the United States are of
the opinion that horses, good horses,
especially good draft animals, will
command good prices for a number of
years. Prior to 1915 the increase in
horse flesh in the country had for
several years fallen below expecta-
tions.
This, coupled with the heavy drain
on available draft horses caused by
the war demand, has very greatly de-
creased the present supply. That,
too, the foreign demand for draft
horses must continue some years af-
ter the present conflict has ended
It would seem, therefore, that it Will
pay farmers to raise good colts and
all they can as these are the horse in.
three or four years, They soon grow
into a work horse for you. Too, it
will pay to well shelter and feed and
otherwise are for these came colts.
Horses in France, so it is stated,
were decreased about one million the
first year of the war and of course the
use of horses in the dangerous h2si-
ness Of war still continues.
During the 81 months ending June
/. 1916, 611.790 horses md 167,3S7
mules have been exportea from the.
United States and at preseot Tie lie.
mand is keener than ey.r. So it.
would seem wise, farmers, to breed
your mares.
The article in the Dakota Farmer,
from which get the above, by Mr..
Wayne" Dinsmore, of Chicago, Ill.,,
states that the English are rather
loath to praise a product not their
own but that the London Live Stock
journal devotes considerable space to
the praise of American horses, a fine
achievement, it appears, for our pro-
duct.
The work of stacking and thresh-
ing the small grain is progressing,
especially the shock threshing. The
bundles are many of them SO wet.
and half rotten and sprouting that
we need very drying weather for this
work. On the contrary the weather
has been quite unfavorable. Much
of the grain has been turned out of.
the shocks in an attemut to dry it,
out.
Ten bushels of wheat is the highest
yield of which l have heard, the
yield averaging about five bushels, or
perhaps a little over. No grade or
below is the usual grading for this
crop The grain coming from the
machines is, too, in a pretty damp
condition, making much of it hardly
fit to put in bin or even to put in the
elevator.
Barley is pretty light and badly.
colored. A considerable part Is blown
into the strawpile, while that left is
light when tested by the scales. Oats
are reported very light and poor.
