Proposed Mortgage Tax.

To the Editor of-The Star:
beg to call attention to the obvious
injustice of the Stirling amendment to
the District appropriation bill. taxing
Intangible property as far as it ap-
plies to mortgages on real estate 1t
1t perfectly clear that this tax will in
rease the interest rate on mortgages
that much at least, thus increasing the
burden on the already overtaxed real
estate in the District. 1t is self-evident
that the investment in any piece of
real estate is only the equity and the
mortgage. Now, this investment already
pays its full tax of $3.50 per hundred
Now. adding the 4-10 per cent tax on
Intangible property simply increases the
tax on that part Of the investment rep
resented by the mortgage, in effect tax
ing IL twice, thus increasing the tax
rate and the burden on the home buyer
and others having equities over those
holding real estate clear of indebted
ness. In other words. it increases the
tax on real estate to the less favorably
placed citizen. The effects will be so
farrea ching and disastrous that this in
justice should not be permitted to be-
come part of the law.

THEHOME GARDEN

The following letter written by c.
E. Hitler to the Experiment Station
at Pullman will doubtless prove of in
terest to our readers:
Since reading your valuable bulletin
mo. 98) on hot bed construction, am
volunteering to furnish you the follow
ing information concerning my own
experience with explicit plans and
figures, in the hopes that you can
make some use of it for the benefit of
our fellow farmers and gardeners.
In my estimation there is no adjunct
to any farm or household, however
small their acreage may be, even a
few feet or lot, so profitable as a well
constructed hot bed. 1t is a means
within the range Of all to provide the
table with the choicest flowers and
vegetables of a quality and freshness
almost unobtainable in the average
home, at small outlay of expense,
utilizing labor when least valuable on
the average farm. The initial outlay,
when apportioned over the average
term of years of the life of a durably
made hot bed, amply repays both ex-
pense and time.
