The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1916-08-17

The article quoted below was written
by the editor of this paper in London in
1914 Just monthly before the unforeseen
outbreak of the present great war. 1t
was published in Commerce and Finance
/ July 30. 1914 1t is now reprinted be-
4, Sause we feel that it has become more
! desirable than ever before that the two
great divisions OF the Anglo Saxon people
should occasionally use each others spec
/ tacles in studying the problems raised by
! the war.
| If Englshmen could and would read
! our newspapers and we could read theirs,
common viewpoint might be reached
| from which both of us would probably be
| able to see and avoid many things which
! may otherwise produce unnecessary fric-
/ rion and misunderstanding.
! At present the essential community of
| interest between Great Britain and the
United States Is perllously near destruc-
ton because England. in her entirely
natural desire to complete the economic
isolation Of Germany, has failed to APP
preciate the resentment that her black
list would awaken in this country
The resulting disaffection. which can
now be removed only by the exercise of
the utmost tact on both sides might we
think, have been entirely avoided il we
had been reading each others newspapers
and had thereby come to have better
knowledge Of each others tenperament
and temper. We. therefore hope that
those who have the continued friendship
of the two nations seriously at heart may
find a way to give practical effect to the
IDEAS expressed in the following article:
The great newspaper called the London
Times by Americans, but invariably de-
scrihed as the Times by Englishmen, is
London.
1t is published on 313 days of the year.
This makes its cost, if bought in London,
S6.26 a year. The annual subscription
rate, if mailed to an address in Great
Britain or Ireland is 81 1875, or, say.
$3.50, and subscribers elsewhere, including
British colonies and the United States,
must pay e3 1ss., or, say. $3.50, to re,
ceive the Times regularly. This means
that the .postoffice charges increase the
cost Of the paper about so per cent to
subscribers in the United Kingdom out
side OF London; and triple its cost to sub
foreign countries. An Englishman res Sid
ing in Paris, Gibraltar, the United States
or T,I India liza must us, pay $l2s4 postage per
publishers sell for s62s. ''-0'' no
The same statement is approximately
applicable to all the English newspapers

English newspaper anywhere in England
that it has to be carried cannot possibly
exceed 500 or 900 miles. In the United
States an American newspaper can be
sent 5000 or 1000 niles. and even to
Alaska and the Philippines, at the bulk
rate Of l cent per pound, which is prob
ably an average of not over u of a cent
for each newspaper.

The Massachusetts iegisla ture has
enacted an income tax law which will go
into effect in 1917. While many states at
various time have levied income taxes.
there has not been any extensive state
tax save in Wisconsin which adopted
graduated income tax as remedy for
the wrongs of the general property tax.
The Wisconsin tax is considered extreme
ly successful The Massachusetts tax
aims to end the same evils by less com
prehensive system Of income taxation.
Taxes may be levied on what an In
dividual owns, i. e., his land or goods, or
1T can be levied on the earning power of
his property. 1t was natural that taxes
should be levied on, first the man, then
on his land, then on his other tangible
goods, and last on his intangible goods
such as securities, profits, wages, etc.
1t has been found that tax on land
and tangible property alone discriminates
too much against the landowner and IA
vors the owner Of intangible property. 1t
also makes territorial division of public
expenses extremely difficult to apportion
In an equitable manner. Under the per-
sonal property tax the cities We're de-
serted gradually by the wealth at taxing
tames. The people of moderate means
and the poor were left to pay the higher
taxes in rents and increased costs of liy-
Ing.
The greatest evil Of the old land tax has
been the inefficient assessment system.
AS the assessments We're made by local
boards dependent for support on the local
community there was a continued con-
straint upon their efficiency. The ratio
of assessed valuation to real valuation al
ways has shown wide discrepancy UNI
der the system.
With the tax real estate, there has
been a tax on personal property. The
difficulty with this tax Is that it puts a
premium dishonesty. since it is col
lected in the most hazardous manner by
the locally elected assessors. The tax on
inheritances coming under it's provisions

WHICH BREED IS THE BEST
Careful Consideration Should DO
Given the Selection.
(By Richard N. Crane, Division Of Ex-
tension, University OF Tennessee.)

(By Richard N. Crane, Division Of Elk
tension, University OF Tennessee.)
AT this season of the year. whether
we be poultry farmers or general farm
ers, we should have at least roughly
made up our mind as to the number
Of chickens we win endeayor to raise
this year.
There are several things that we
ought to consider before starting our
incubating operations:
First--Are we entirely satisfied with
the breed OF poultry that we now
have in our yards7
Second-Does this breed of poultry
meet the requirements of our special
purposesf
In other words, II we are ambitious
to produce large quantity of eggs for
market, and do not care to produce
roasting chickens, we ought TO decide
on breed that will be the most eco
nomical producer or eggs. While on
the other hand, IL we purpose produe.
Ing market poultry as well as eggs,
10 the breed we now have the most
economical producers of high-class
broilers and roasting chickens, and
are they as good egg producers as 1t
would be possible for Us to have. and
yet get first quality market poultry
If 1t is eggs We want TO produce, lay
ing little or no stress upon the market
poultry side, we will in all probability
find that some OF the Mediterranean
breeds, such as the Leghorns, Minorcas,
Aneonas and Andelusians, will be the
most economical producers, while, IL
1t be eggs and market poultry, we will
find American breeds, such as Ply
mouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, orp-
ingtons, Buckeyes and. Wyandottes,
would best suit our requirements.
So, before starting this years incu-
batting, let us decide definitely what
we want to do In the future in the
poultry yards, and let us not be chang.
ing breeds from one year to another,
but, after definitely deciding on the
one breed, let us strive to make our
hocks as large as We can, and produce
good profits.

DIR. wATERFIELD AT RIPLEY

The First Methodist church was filled
to its utmost capacity last Sunday
morning, the occasion being the
preaching of the commencement SER
mon of the Ripley High School. The
other churches of the city, compli-
mentary 20 the graduating class, cam
celled their morning service and the
pastors, Rev. ]. w. Storer and Rev. R.
i. Long, with their respective congre-
cations were present.
Happily, Rev. c. A. Waterfeld Of
Martin, one of the rarest characters
in Southern Methodism, was chosen to
deliver the sermon. He used this text:
For God so loved the world that He
gave his only begotten son that who
soever believeth in him, should not per-
ish, but have everlasting life."
The speaker went to the very depth
of this great, though familiar text,
and uncovered many new truths so
delicately wrapped up in this portion
Of Gods word, in the most charming
manner. His language was beautiful,
his Interpretation profound, his logic
perfect fascinating to degree, that
really his sermon developed into clas-
sic, a gem. His delivery was unique,
his message was afame with Magnet
ism, and through the power of the
Holy Spirit, he made it fairly breathe
with life and love. With force and
power he drove home to the hearts Of
his hearers and lodged 1t there for
comfort and meditation. Rev. Water
field is a student, a philosopher, gen
Jus, and his presence in our little city
was indeed a benediction. He also
filled the pulpit Of the First Method
ist church at the evening hour.
May he come this way again.-Lau-

Texas, who Is a prominent breeder of

Of H. L. Currie's prize winning brood
sows--King's Star and Currie's Choice
at the price Of $500 for the two. Does
1t pay to raise good stock?
To date there have been shipped
from Brownsville twenty-five cars of
strawberries, valued at something
like $4,000. The crates in which these
berries were shipped, together with
the money paid for picking, will
amount to about $1,000 more. $4,000
dollars spent in this community for
this the first year of this new industry
is mighty good showing. 1t viii be
more than doubled another year and
bids fair to become one Of our leading
and most profitable industries.
Those who missed seeing the won
derful display of beautiful garments

High School did indeed miss treat,
for the work would have done credit
to older heads and more experienced
hands and to those who had more time
to give to the work. To decide who
had done the best work was hard
task. but prizes had been offered and
the decision had to be made. A care
full study Of each garment resulted in
the following decision; For the best
made dress in the senior class
DR.. Earl Mulheron offered $500 in
gold. and it was given to Miss Blanche
Dixon. Miss Nina Southern won the
second prize. $500 waist donated by
Mr.. C. r. Sherman. Hotchkiss &

to Miss Grace Russell. In the Fresh
man class, for the greatest improve
ment, Miss Lucille Felsenthal won the
