BUSINESS ON SUNDAY CLOSING.

Heads of the big industrial con. cerns of Chicago see very direct re- lation between the enforcement of the Sunday-closing law and the phys ical and mental condition of their em- ployees on Mondays, and naturally they are not inclined to agree with the liquorites' caustic criticism of the pur- itanical, undemocratic law and it's en- forcement. The men who manage the great industries tell us that Sunday drinking has meant lessened eff ciency, decreased mental and moral stamina, Appreciated physical vigor and the wasting of money and conse- quent worry over financial conditions
 Our workmen now come to the plants on Monday morning with clear heads and rested bodies,' said fore. man of Armour and Co.,, the big pack ing house. Tt was the complaint of all packers before the saloons were closed that many of the men either did not show up at all on Monday or reported with 'hangovers that re- duced their efficiency 50 per cent dur ing tho day. and affected it for sev- eral days thereafter. Now the men arc on hand Monday morning with steady muscles. rested bodies and minds. 1t for their tasks"
 Our workmen were all on hand last Monday for the first time in years said one of the foremen of the Illinois Steel company, the week after the Sunday-closing law was enforced. When we asked them what caused the change they said they had noth- ing to do Sunday but rest for Mon- day Besides, most of them had enough of their wages loft not to need to nsk for advances before the next week ended"
 The closing of the saloons is a boon to industry" said one of the depart ment managers of the International Harvester works. When the em- ployees have had time to note it's ef. feet, they will give it their heartiest support
 The direct effect on the building trades is that about 25 per cent more workmen were on hand last Monday than at any time during the period have been handling large numbers of wo'kmen," said q member of the Con- tractors Association of Painters and Decorators.

. f'As2s arc for the first two, 2l tA "Gh growing some of the kinds for gran c1d b-ooms is done in limited way. The sorghums may be divided into two broad groups: First, sweet or seccharine, or those which contain a large amount of juice rich in sugar from which syrup is made. Second non-sacch arine or those which do not contain the sweet juices as the katirs and broom-corn.
 Amber, orange. sumac or red top honey or Japanese seeded, and Texas seeded ribbon are the common varie ties of sweet sorghums grown. The amber is the earliest and does no' make the yield that the others make although if it is grown early it may be cut for nay twice during the season The sumac. honey and Texas seeded ribbon arc all later maturing and are usually used for syrup and where large yields of forage or silage IS wanted Texas seeded ribbon is ee pecially prized for the large amour; of syrup that 1t produces.
 The method of planting varies with the use to which these sorghums aro to be put. For syrup the planting I. done in rows 36 to f2 inches apar, using six to eight pounds of seed to the acre The worst objection to sorghum for hay is the fact that it is hard to cure. and that the stems arc coarse. This difficulty can be elimi mated to some extent by seeding thicl1ly or broadcasting about a buShe' of seed to the acre Careful tests i- Kansas showed that an acre of so. ghum put up es si'aGc made nor

gains with beef animals than an acre of corn used as silage.
 Sudan grass. which has been intro duced within the last few years, and Johnson grass are very closely relat- ed. They will mix with each other and with the other sorghums. John son grass has large underground stems which enables 1t to spread and become serious pest in many sections. Su- dan grass has fibrous roots like wheat or corn, lives for only one year and cannot become a pest. Sudan has a broader leaf than Johnson grass and the plant Is more coarse.
 Sudan promises to be one of our good hay crops. It makes three or four cuttings during the season and if the harvesting Is done just as the crop Is heading out it makes a splen' did feed, although not so rich in mus cle making as cowpeas or clover. About 20 pounds of seed per acre broadcast, or to pounds of seed in rows 30 to 36 inches wide, has been found to be the best amount.
 Because of it's persistent habit it is seldom advisable to seed Johnson grass on clean soil, but on leSds that have already become infested it can be made a most profitable crop. On strong soils the three or four yearly cuttings will make as much feed as any other crop.
 Kafir, milo, feterita and shallu are all grown in a small way for grain and for forage although they are not very satisfactory, especially in the more humid sections of the state Many fields fail to make seed due tc a condition commonly known as blight which is caused by small midge nr insect which lays it's egg in the flower just as it opens The egg hatches into miniature worm which prevents the seed from forming Birds also do great deal of damage by pickinG out the seed. AS forage crop this group Is generally inferior to the sweet sorghums. Feterita is earlier than kafir or milo and does not make so much forage although fl planted early it may make seed wher the others fair. Shallu. also knowr as Egyptian wheat. is inferior in quan tity and quality of forage and in the amount of grain, although the sprangled head generally causes ar estimation of the yield to be too high

THE ANSWER.

Washington, D. C., March s, 1916. Mir. G. w. McDowell
 Hope, Arkansas.
 My dear Sir:
 Your letter of March 4th. addressed to the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives has been received. In reply l beg to say that I agree with you that the Income Tax should be increased, and there should also be levied tax upon munitions of war. l believe this is the sentiment of the Ways X Means Committee, especial iy Of the Democratic Members of the Ways and Means Committee.
 l note that you state that it has been suggested by some in your State that there should be a Federal graduated tax on land. With such suggestion. I do not agree; in fact, 1 am confident that not Member of the Ways and Means Committee, either Democrat or Re- publican, would support such a proposi- tlon, nor do l think there is a Mem Der in Congress who would support it. Congress, from the beginning of the Government, never undertook to tax lands. This is one of the funda- mental rights of the State, and proper ly is left entirely with the States. have received hundreds of letters with respect to methods of raising taxation for the Federal Government, but your letter is the first suggestion l have had to levy a Federal tax on lands. With assurances of my kind regards, 1 beg to remain,
 Sincerely yours, (Signed) CLAUDE KITCHEN.

THE QUESTION.
Hope, Arkansas, Mar. 4, l9l6 Ways and Means Committee, House of Representatives,
 Washington, D. C.
Gentlemen:

Gentlemen:
 I am a farmer and I don't claim to be an expert on raising money to run the Government, but l see the papers are full of talk about different ways of getting money to pay the running expenses and ..hat. your Committee viii, have to draw laws to rai this money.
 It always seemed to me that we poor folks pay too much taxes and the rich folks do not pay enough, and If l was making laws l would change this so the rich who can afford to pay taxes would have to pay their share. The income tax is a good way to raise money but I don't think the rates are high enough. I have read that Con sress might raise the rates and l hope they will
 The people who are getting rich mak- ing guns and shells for the countries at war and trying to get us into 1t ought to have a tax put on their goods for the benefit of the Government. l have heard it discussed here about putting a Federal tax on lands and some say this can be done while others say 1t can't be done. l would like to know if this could be done. There are lots of people and corporations in this part of Arkansas who own a great deal of land which they do not put to any good use, simply hold it for speculation, and 1t has been said that if Congress would put graduated tax on this land so that if a man owned one hundred acres of lal that he was not working himself, his taxes would be so much per acre. and if he owned two hundred acres 1t would he taxed at a higher rate and so on until if he owned thousands of acres the tax would be equal to the value of the land, and some think this would be a good thing because they would sell the land and renters could then buy homes l would like to know If this could be done by Congress,
 Very truly yours,

Councilmen In Session

The town council met in regular
session Tuesday night and transacted
the routine Of business. A building
permit was granted the Bonner Wa
ter & Light Company to construct
fireproof structure in the rear of
the present offices of the company,
the new structure to be used for stor-
age purposes.
Rev. Robinson, pastor of the Meth
odist church, addressed the members
of the council, in regard to renting
the former offices of Probate Judge
O'Callaghan and fitting them up for
a resort for transients who might
be in the city and have no place to
spend an evening. The council took
no action in the matter and seemed
to be of the opinion that the city
could not spare the money for this
purpose at the present time.

DECISION IS ADVERSE TO
DRAINAGE DISTRICT NO. 5

Judge ]. M. Flynn, of the Eighth
Judicial District, this morning rem
dered an adverse decision in the
matter of proceeding with the assess
ments and the determination of their
reasonableness in Drainage District
No. 5. The hearing in this matter
was had in Boundary county on No
vember 4th and 5th, motion being
made on the afternoon of the latter
date by the remonstrants to dismiss
the hearing, it being claimed that the
entire drainage district and drainage
plans were defective.
In his findings Judge Flynn de-
clares that the drainage laws of Ida
no are not unconstitutional. Further
Judge Flynn states:
"As to the practicability and feas-
Utility of the project the court is in
clined to be governed by the testi-
mony of an engineer of recognized
ability rather than by the conjectures
and speculations of laymen. 1t would
have been easy and comparatively
inexpensive for the remonstrants to
have had expert testimony on this
matter; and it seems to me that the
burden was on the DIRECTORS to over
throw the prima facie showing of the
practicability and suficiency of the
proposed system made by the COM
missioners and their engineer. Nc
contention was made by those il
favor Of the proceedings that the as
sessment made against the railway
company could stand. This will in
crease the burden of the balance o.
the land, but this is not a fatal OBJ
lection to the validity Of the pro
Iceedings.
"The most serious objection anc
the one on which the court bases it
determination is the fact that tn,
proposed district, comprising abou
$500 acres, includes HOO acres o
Indian lands, the title to which il
in the United States government. l
lis conceded that these Indian land
are not subject to taxation or as
sessment for the benefits to be de

Voting Contest Time To
Work Hard Now
is LIKELY TO BE A CLOSE RACE
Friends Should Hurry to Help Their
Favorite Contestant

There is absolutely no truth in
the statement that this is the closed
season for hunting subscriptions to
the Bonners Ferry Herald. The law,
lmade by the Herald) permits live,
active, aggressive contestants to
hunt subscriptions until the close of
the contest and there is a bounty on
them too. For every new subscrip-
ton brought in bounty of 800 votes
in The Boomers Ferry Merchants
Popular Voting Contest is paid. Some
happy young lady is going to march
away from The Herald office in just
a short time wearing the smile that
won't come off, because that young
lady will have won the grand ODER
meyer d Sons piano. There are only
a few more days left of this contest.
! That means that the race still be-
longs to anybody who has just lit
tie initiative. The fact of the mat
ter is that no one yet has such a
start that it could not be easily over
come in a few days of consistent
work. This is certainly the most
glorious opportunity that the young
ladies of this community have ever
had. Every contestant now thor
oughly understands the rules and
methods of securing subscriptions
and the majority Of them have set
tied down in earnest jealous work
that eliminates idle dreaming and
means working for some definite
point. The aimless haphazard So
Letting has been dropped and sys-
tematic campaign for votes is now
in progress. You can not tell how
many votes a candidate really has
by the score that was published for
the reasons that the majority of con-
testants are wisely voting a very
small portion of their strength, thus
keeping their real strength covered
up from their opponents. But the
score indicates those who can come
to the front when the proper time
arrives. There is no question but
what everyone in and around Boomers
Ferry has been solicited, or at least
has heard about this contest. The
pbetter field for operation now lies in

Spoerry Sudan Grass Publicity

That the experiments conducted
last season by G. w. Spoerry in the
way of the raising of Sudan grass,
have proven successful has been her
aided all over Idaho and the adjacent
western states. The newspapers in
all parts of the west have printed
articles announcing the success of
Prof. Spoerry's experiment and the
farmers publications have given
space to lengthy articles telling of
the conditions under which the ex-
pertinent was worked out In last
weeks issue of the Gem State Rural
and Live Stock Journal, one of the
leading publications of its kind in
western states, full front page is
given over to the story of Mr.. Spoer-
