REVENUE. BILLS
GO IN TONIGHT
Legislators Will Talk Over
Them and Prepare For Any
Emergency Action

The Pennsylvania Legislature will
start some financial preparedness
moves this week. Seven or eight bills
looking to increase of the revenues
from $12.000,000 to $13,0OO,OOO year
are scheduled to be presented tonight
so that they can go to the Ways and
Means committees for discussion. 1t
is not the intention to pass them un-
less stern necessity arises.
7 While the bills are going in for the
purpose of getting things in shape for
action in event that war requires more
money there are some legislators who
consider that under the national de-
fense act and the power of the Presi-
dent to raise volunteers the State would
not be called upon to raise money. The
Federal government paid all of the bills
for the border service from the time
the men entered the service and reim-
bursed the State for what it paid out.
1t would do the same for reserve re-
cruit camps and probably all the State
would have to pay would be home
guards and maybe not that except in
case of invasion. Furthermore, the
State can issue a million dollars of
bonds at time to pay cost of re-
pelling invasion, suppressng insurrec-
tion and disturbances. The State sink
ing funds now equal debt and Penn
SSlNdnld bonuS WOulu De Snappeu up.
The revenue bills include the pro-
posed constitutional amendment to per-
init graded taxation. Chairman ]. +.
Woodward, of the House appropriation
committee, will sponsor that.
The other bills are to be presented
by Mr.. Woodward, as follows:
Direct inheritance of two cents on
the dollar of clear value of estates,
which would raise s6,000,O0O as it would
affect estates owned outside of the
State by residents. A five per cent. dis
count would be allowed for prompt
payment.
y State tax of two per cent. ad va
loren on all coal prepared for market,
half to the counties producing coal,
and to be dedicated to highways. This
would mean about $5,000,000.
State tax on natural gas at the rate
of two per cent. ad valorem at this
well, which would raise 100000 to be
used for highways. A similar tax with
similar dedication on petroleum is also
planned.
State tax of one mill on capital en-
gagged in manufacturing, laundering,
etc, which would raise several mill
lions.
n new theatrical tax and a proposed
one-mill tax on real estate are talked
of but not drawn and Mr.. Woodward
will not present them.

APPROPRIATION
BILL ABOUT READY
Hearings Will Be Held by Com
mittee to Decide About Some
of the Charges

N Prospects that some probes into de-
partmental expenditures will be started
within a week by the House Appropria-
there was considerable speculation on
Capitol Hill as to how far it would
go.
The general appropriation bill will
go into the House tonight over week
late, and in an unfinished state. 1t Will
contain departmental estimates as
passed by the Economy and Emciency
Commission, which is to report to-night
and lump estimates as requested by
departments whose figures the commits
sion and the legislative chairmen have
not had time to review.
The bill last session carried $4,000
600 in round numbers. The requests
made. this session call for SOS. 600, 600,
including the increases for highways
and schools which run about $4,000
OOO The bill as it will go in will call
for about S44,O0O,0O0 and the committee
will start hearings as to the necessity
for the sum.
In all probability the reports that
activities of men connected with the
State Labor and Industry, Agricultural
and other departments played politics
while travelling at State expense last
year, will be taken up. Some of the
Legislators are said to charge that men
connected WITH departments NoihSN
against them and there may be an
evening up of scores.
The framing of the bill will take
probably a fortnight and then the
charity bills will be rushed out. There
may be enactment of these bills thirty
days before final adjournment or If
that cannot be done there may be re-
cesses taken.
The committee will rush the military
bills so that there will be no question
about the funds for the Guard and for
the Improvement of Mt. Gretna, while
probably one-third of the amount car
ried by the armory building bill will
ha y,,ada available

NORTH GEORGIA APPLE.
RAISERS ARE PROSPEROUS

ATLANTA, Ca, DC. 26.-While south
Georgia farmers are counting the pro-
ceeds of peaches and pecans and pea
nuts and other forage crops and while
the entire state is more prosperous
than ever before as a direct result of
the high price of cotton, good times
are coming for north Georgia when
the great apple crop of the mountain
counties is placed on the market.
Reports received in the state de-
partment of agriculture show that the
apple crop this year will be among
the best on record, both as to guam.
tity and quality In Polk and HARRISON
counties the crop is especially fine.
A number of orchard owners in those
counties are grazing cattle on large
tracts in addition to raising apples.
Climate, soil, rainfall and all other
elements entering into the production
of apples combine to make north <eor-
gia the finest section for this industry
in the whole United States, excepting
only the great apple country of the
far northwest, and Georgia apples have
DEFEATED northwestern apples in con-
tests throughout the country.

EXPORTS OF MINERAL
OILS SHOW BIG INCREASE

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-More mineral
oils were exported from the United
States during the fiscal year 1917 than
ever before, the total amounting to
2.749,43S, 434 gallons valued at $780,
953,149, according to figures made pull
lie by the Bureau of Foreign and De-
nestle Commerce, Of the Department
of Commerce This was an increase
of approximately 3OO,00o,0O0 gallons
and $50 100000 over 1916, and about
470,000,000 gallons and $79,000,000
over 1914, the last normal year be-
fore the war Only small percentage
OF the total exported was crude oil.
The war has had the effect of reduc-
ing the exports of Illuminating oil, the
foreign sales for 1917 totaling S35,114,-
4O3 gallons, valued at $54,662, 094
against ,157 ,283,31O gallons, valued at

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pirn-
pies, rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a cafe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $780, It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and 10 positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

COOPERATIVE STORE
SOLVES THE PROBLEM

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 27.-One
little store here has come nearer a
true solution of the marketing ques-
ton than many theorists This COM
munity for the last four months has
had in successful operation a genuine
cooperative store. It deals directly
as possible with the producer on the
one hand and the consumer on the
other, eliminating many of the mid
dlemen as is feasible.
Cooperation is a gne theory, but
difficult in practice. The manager in
the Washington cmmunity store has
overcome the practical difficulties,
Here's the war he started
He demonstrated to his neighboIs
by actual figures that they were pay
ing anywhere from 50 to So week
more for their groceries and supplies
than they needed to. This represented
the middlemen's profits.
He then proposed if a hundred fam
lilies would pay him regularly so cents
week, he would undertake to supply
them with garden truck, provisions,
and meats at wholesale prices. To
clinch the demonstration, he showed
that an average family would save this
80 cents weekly fee in a couple Of
days purchases.
This man had energy, persistence
and intelligence The store has ev-
cry prospect of increasing success.
There is no difference in appearance
between ascommunity store and any
other provision store. There is no
other difference in buying your food.
The only difference is that you pay 50
cents a week ON certain day of each
week and buy food for anywhere from
Is to 40 per cent less than at the
commercial homeopathic retail
price.
Any one who fails to pay his dues
may still buy, but at retail prices.
Any one not a member of the store
may buy, but at retail prices, the
store making a profit.
At the end of certain stated periods
any profit is divided among the dues
paying members.
Washington is particularly fortu-
nate is being one of the few munich
palities of the country which has a
public ciy-owned market, where the
farmers can come with their produce
and sell it direct to the consumer.
But the majority OF the housewives
of Washington, like the housewives
throughout the United States, cannot
buy directly from the producer. There
is simply no machinery in existence
for buying directly To a small ex-
tent the parcel post solves this, but
in the opinion of Carl Vrooman, not
a successfully as the cooperative
store,
/ The other day department of agri-
culture investigator went to the CO.
operative store here to make an eX-
pertinent He paid his so cents week
ly membership and made some pur-
chases. He bought a 10-cent carton of
oatmeal for 8 cents, a 10-cent loaf of
bread for cents, one hatfpeck of
string beans for 20 cents, as against
80 cents in the homeopathic es-
| adjustments; three pounds of veal
for So cents, instead of 80 cents;
half dozen oranges for 10 cents, in
stead of the usual price of 20 to 25
cents, and so on. His total purchases
amounted to $1.S2, and the estimated
saving was 40 cents-within one cent
of the entire weekly fee
There is a movement now on foot in
Washington establish an association of
cooperative stores on the model de-
scribed
