FALL SELECTION OF POTATOES
PAYS

1t pays to select next years seed
potato tubars from the field at digging
time, better than to select them from
the bin next spring. Here are reasons
why seed selection is more easily TAX
en- care Of now than when the pota-
toes are in the bin.
At digging time one can get good
idea as to the type and uniformity of
tubers produced under individual
vines which can not be obtained after
the crop has been put in storage. Seed
should be selected only from vines

may well be classed as criminal care
lessness. The public health is guard
ed by quarantine in the case OF an
epidemic. Road authorities do not
hesitate to close roads and bridges
to public travel where they are con
sidered unsafe. Common carriers are
restricted to the use of safety appli-

Building Code.
This condition can and should b4
eliminated in towns and cities by tht
adoption and enforcement of an ade
Quate building code. Very little cal
be done in the case of buildings al

tainly these dangers can and SHOULD
be prevented in the future. The Ques
ton of state building code is one
which future holds for us.
Other Insurance.
As ninety per cent of the fires in
tentionally started are for the pur-
pose of collecting insurance it must
necessarily follow that the element of
over insurance enters into the matter,
and this question will be discussed in

year. 1t is proposed to burden the
worker and farmer by. taxes on the
things they consume, and spend the
proceeds on armament, with colossal
profits to the armament ring, for an
Army and Navy TO protect principal
" the things that privilege owns.
First, Why tax labor when, accord
| ing to the report of the Commission
on Industrial Relations, from between
one-third and one-fourth of the male
| workers IS years Of age and over in
| factories and mines earn less than
| $40 per week, while from two-thirds
% tnree6ourths earn less than V$I5
per week; when 2 per cent of the PEG
pie own so per cent of the wealth, and
% per cent own only 5 per cent OF
the wealth.
Why not compel per cent Of the
people to pay 80 per cent of the taxes
instead of making the great mass OF
I the people, who own per cent, pay
So per cent of the taxes?
Second, Why tax labor when war
lnunition stocks have increased in
value in one year by $500, 0O0.OO0
Third: Why tax incomes in Amer
ca but $50 200, 900 when incomes in
Great Britain, even before the war,
1aid $236y045, 600? England contains
less than one-half our population and
wealth.
AA told, England taxed wealth, in
comes and inheritances to the extent
If $3.50 l15, 600 and collected 45 per
cent of her total revenue from. these
sources. Democratic America collect
ed 9 per cent of its revenues from
wealth, incomes and inheritances.
Fourth: Why. tax labor on its ne
cessities, ON the. things it needs to
merely i've, when inheritances have
not as yet been taxed a penny by the
Federal Government?
Fifth: Great, Britain taxes incomes
up to 337a per cent for. war purposes;
Germany leVies taxes for imperial
purposes, for state purposes, and for
municipal purposes as we'll; the COM
bined rate running often to Is per
cent or 20 per cent. Democratic
America taxes incomes from per
cent to per cent, the maximum up
to 100000 being but per cent.
"A tax of $199 to the wage Garner
means giving UP clothes, food from
! hiss table, possfhay. the doctor. for. his
children A taxgsof $4,000 to a man
with an income of 500, 900, or $780,,
900 to man enjoying an income OF
$500, 600 means no sacrifice whatever
Sixth: Why tax labor, when an ad
ditional tax of / per cent on the gross
earnings of railroads, puIblic-service
corporations, mines, and other pub
lie utilities would yield $50,OOO,O00'
It could be easily collected. 1t could
not be escaped. In most instances j
could not be passed on to the con
sumner
Seventh: -. Preparations for wal
should call for equal sacrifices. De
tense should not mean sacrifice TO
the millions, and only profits for th'
few Preparations for war mean pr
fits to the railroads, to mine owners
munition factories, banks; it mean
speculative values for the stock broE
and SPECTATORS. It means tina
the Bonded backs of labor will carr

emergency arises, will be used agains

The best time to stop a fire is be-

Glasses of Fires.
Fires may be broadly classed under
two heads-those caused by careless
ness and those caused by intent. Care
lessness in many cases destroy pro
perty, not only of the person who is
responsible for the loss but of limo
cent property owners as well. It can
be readily seen, therefore, that this
is distinctly unfair and unjust. 4

they. have gone so far as to place
the burden of proof on the owner of
the property where the fire originated

to carelessness. This is one of the
reasons why the per capita loss In
Europe is several times smaller than

URGE SHORTER WoRKDAY.

washington, f6D. S0ln a clrcular
letter issued by A. F. of L. officials to
all affiliated bodies, the workers Of
America are urged to concentrate
every effort for the attainment of the
shorter workday, at least an eight
hour day.
Attention is called to the following
declaration on this subject by the A.
F. of L. convention at San Francisco:
because of the far-reaching impor,
lance and effect of the shorter work
day upon the material, physical and
mental conditions of the working PEG,
pie, We can not too strongly impress
upon all wage earners the necessity
to concentrate their chief effort t.
secure the shorter work day-the gen
eral application, of at least the eight
hour day.
I'VE, therefore, recommend that al
wage earners- the toilers of Amer
ica-uniEe and make common cause
for the attainment of this economic
social, political and moral boon at the
earliest possible day. No proposition
more sound economically, sociological
ly. and hnmanely can be adopted thai
the enforcement of the general eight
hour work day for the workers en-
gagged upon any field of human en-
/ deaVOr."
