Facts, Protests and Figures

Especial from a Staff Correspondent
OF The Evening Worldly


ALBANY. N. Y, oct. 27.--New
York CITY again has been penaliyed
in taxation by upstate politicians.
At the meeting yesterday Of the
State Board OF Equalization the ra-
tios Of assessed property valuations
were fixed on a basis that discriml-
mates against the metropolis and ia
vors rural counties, where real estate
has been marked down far below real
value for tax purposes. This was
done in the face OF fluctuations scien-
tincally prepared by State Tax Com
mission experts after extensive in
vcstlgatlon. Martin SAKE, President
Of the Commission. vigorously pro-
tested against the action taken, but
was outvoted.
The State Board OF Equalization Is
an ex-oficio body consisting OF the
Lieutenant-G Governor, Speaker Of the
Assembly, Secretary OF State. Comp
troller. Treasurer, Attorney General.
State Engineer and the three mem
bers OF the Tax Commission, All are
Republicans.
Its business Is 60 determine in the
several counties the ratio OF assessed
valuation to fun value and 10 fix an
equalizcd average for the entire
state. This is used as the basis o.
apportioning a direct State tax and
also has n bearing on the taxation
OF special franchises Of public service
corporations.
The principal object OF p State
counties Is to have their ratios fixed
as high as possible so that Il will
appear as though their local
were coming up nearer to fun vulue
The higher their ratio the moro they
can evade their own just proportion
by shifting heavier burdens onto
New York City. where property is
assessed at nearc 100 per sent than
anywhere else in the State.
Tho average rate for the entire
State proposed BY President SAKE,
based on his departments investiga-
ton. was sS.l+ per cent.
The average rate as fixed by a ma
jority of the Board or Equalization
was S5.76j por cent. The Upstate
politicians boosted tho rate more than
two and a half points for rural con
munity benefit.
In addition to this they struck an
other blow at New York City by low
ering It's ratio Whilo raising their

proper sanitary measures in caring for
their hogs. Where cholera breaks out
IN large herd it is the practice of the
commission to induce the owner to ship
the animals at once to some wholesale
slaughter house where they are gov
eminent inspected and those that are
fit for food are Immediately killed while
those that are unfit for food are de-
ssroyed. This practice saves the farmer
the loss of his entire herd and also
mimimizes the chances for the spread

FAIRIES IN CHILD'S ROOM
Grownups Make Mistake When They
Laugh at the Little Ones
Imagination.

1t Is certain, Of course, that II any
one Of us, however dull, came into the
child's playroom and found standing
there beside him tall and simmer
ing figure of fairylike, miraculous
beauty, decked in shining iris and
frosty, glistening gold-it is quite GER
tain we would step softly, with aston
ishment; would gaze mutely with
amazement and watch with wonder,
Laura Spencer Porter writes in the
Mothers Magazine. Not one of US,
am very sure, would dismiss the whole
happening as a piece of nonsense, or
something merely amusing. Yet, how
often, when we go into the child's
playroom a presence even more won
derful. is there beside him, far more
fairylike, far more amazing, far more
marvellous colored, far more richly en-
dowed than any fairy Whatsoever
the imagination, a presence which has
been with man, granting his desires,
since the world began, and whose pow
er has never yet been, nor, / fancy,
ever will be, computed.
AS beautiful and exquisite, yes, and
in it's beauty very nearly as solemn
a thing as the world and the life of
man afford; and behold, we pay it no
reverence, give it little consideration,
or, we laugh at it, perhaps. as some
thing trifing, and call it "child's play"

Sousa used to tell an amusing story
Of German trombone player whom
the omposer-conductor knew in the
early days when he was leading the
United States Marine band in Wash
ington. The old trombone player was
named Backenblasser-a fact he could
not help-and on one occasion Sousa
saw him standing outside the theater
where he had been playing for sew
eral weeks. Backenblasser was
swearing very unmusically for a man
who knew all about harmony, and he
shook his fist at the theater and even
administered one or two kicks to the
unresisting brick wall. What's the
trouble, Backenblasser?" asked Sou
sa, stopping in surprise. 81 will nefer

BEES HAVE HEATING METHOD
Work Of Intelligent Insects Keeps
Temperature Of Hives Comfort
able in Winter Weather.

The bee upholds his reputation for
industry throughout the winter months
as well as during the summer. Being
susceptible to cold. the bee must turn
to his colony for warmth. Commu-
nism, which in bees is so highly devel-
for the young, is also the basis for the
heating system. 1t was found by ex-
pertinent that only the shell is COM
pact. This is formed by one to sew
eral layers of bees all solidly arranged
with their heads inward, their hairs
interlacing. This arrangement is per-
feet for conservation Of the heat with
in. Except for an occasional shifting
Of position the bees forming the shell
are quiet. But within the shell strange
things are going on.
1t is here that the heat is gener-
ated. And the antics are not unlike
our own when We are cold. The bees
are packed loosely within the shell so
that there is plenty of space for many
bees to be exercising at time. Rap
id tanning Of the wings, shaking the
body from side to side, rapid breath
ing, and other movements are all part
of the scheme for raising the tempera-
ture. In one particular instance, when
bee had been rapidly tanning with
his wings for seven and a half min
utes, the thermometer nearest him
rose half degree Fahrenheit.

Destroying Microbes.

The odor of cloves has been known
to destroy microbes in thirty-fve min
utes; cinnamon will kill some species
in twelve minutes, thyme in thirty-five
minutes. In forty-five minutes COM
mon wild verbena is found effective,
while the odor Of some geranium
flowers has destroyed various ferns of
microbes in fifty minutes. The es-
sence OF cinnamon is said to destroy
the typhoid fever microbe in twelve
minutes, and is recorded as the most
effective of all odors as an antiseptic.
It is now believed that flowers which
are found in Egyptian mummies were
placed there more for their antiseptic
properties than for merely ornamental
or sentimental purposes.
