Ignorance of the law excuses no

how to refuse him.-John Selden.

1t Is not presumed tnat the uloS'
conservative citizens of Polk county
will question the estimate that the
assessed value of the county will in
crease in much greater ratio this
and succeeding years, and especially
as and when the contemplated i'm
provement is made, but taking only
the same ratio of increase quoted
above, (averaging % per cent per
annum) and the assessed value for
1916 will be $17,754,416, yielding
with the same millage, $142,035.S2.
|Deducting from this amount the in
terest of 100000, maintenance of
convicts $4,000 and $4,000 re-
funded to incorporate towns, or
total Of 100000, there will be
available for work on lateral roads
and bridges not included in the
bonded system, balance of $751;
O35.OO. At the same ratio of in
crease, the assessed valuation for
1917 will be $21,660,3S7, yieldins
without an increased millage, $173.'

as above, amounting to 100000
there will be an available balance Of

At the same ratio of increase, thu
assessed valuation for 1918 will b
s26, 425,672, yielding without in
creased millage $211, 405.76. De

which the intelligent voter is asking
and which ought to be answered in
thoroughly practicable and intel
ligent manner is how can the
county commissioners finance sue
cessfuIly the matter Of the proposed
bond issue for one million dollars
for road building in the county,"
Can it be shown in a clear and
concrete way that the obligation in
Cured by Polk county, il the bond
election should carry. can be met
fully and completely without handi-
Gaping the commissioners in the
matter of making necessary repairs
to roads and bridges outside the
limits of the proposed system of
roads. the maintenance of the con-
victs, etc, and without materially
increasing the taxes of the individ-
ual taxpayer"
These questions have been asked
before and answered in general
way. This article proposes to an
swer them again in detail showing
how everything can be properly
taken care of on the lines suggested
by the questions.
Let us take it for granted that a
bond issue for twelve hundred
thousand dollars will be necessary to
build the system of roads outlined
and that the election to be held in
April or May will be favorable. II
will, in all probability be Septem-
Der, at the earliest, before any pro-
ceeds would be available from the
sale Of the bonds and no interest
would he called for prior to the fall
of 1917. 1t has been proposed by
some of the commissioners, If not
unanimous, that twenty-five veal
bonds be issued and that the first
refunding payment be made on the
sixth year. That year for each sue
ceeding year it is proposed to retire
$4,000 worth of the bonds. Dur
ing the first five years, none of the
bonds will mature and only the in
terest will have to be paid, amount
ing to 100000. The total income
from the road tax for the curren
year 6 mills on valuation o
$14,552,SO0) will amount to $116,
422.4O. Approximately $4,000 o
this amount will be refunded to tn
incorporated towns in the county t
take care of the street work within
the corporate limits. One of tn
commissioners has stated that
costs $4,000 year to take care o
1.-THE convicts, these three items total
ing $105,0OO. This will still leav
$11, 422.OO available for work o.
lateral roads and bridges not includ
ed in the bonded system. These fig
ures, so far, relate only to the yea
1917 based on the assessed valuatio
for 1914. The figures, taken frol
the books of the assessor, are as To-
lows:

HeiQht of Meteors.

Meteors, Or shooting stars, are
email solid bodies that fall through
space, become incandescent in the at
mosphere of the earth and usually dis
appear in the form Of gas or dust. IL
Two observers stationed several miles
lpart see the same shooting star and
note the point in the sky where it ap-
pearea they can construct a hypo-
thetical triangle, the apex of which is
the point of appearance of the meteor,
and thus obtain the approximate
height Of the shooting star when it
first became visible. For a long period
Of years, it appears, German observer
employed this method of estimating
the height Of shooting stars. From
careful observations of no less than
102 meteors he found that the mean
height at which shooting stars first be-
come visible is 81 miles. The mean
height of the point at which they dis
appear is about SO miles, and the av-
erage length Of their visible path AZ
miles.

Patent Medicines Also.
Patent medicines arc also going
up, although only in the past few
weeks have the manufacturers and

| So far, the increases IN the cost Of
these preparations have been COM

! According to local retail druggists
absolutely everything used as an in
gredient in prescr ption work has. at
the least, doubled in price. AS is
shown in the comparative figures
quoted above, many articles have
jumped enormously in cost. Every
thing has increased at least double,
however, and as result there is a
great increase N the cost of all pres
criptions.
AS an example. one prescription
was shown by local druggist yes
terday, which cost $1.S5 cents, to the
purchaser. In February last year.
that same prescription could have
been filled at cost to the purchaser
of 40 cents. And last year, at 40
cents, the druggist would have made
larger profit out of that prescElp-
ton, than he made this year at $1.SJ.
