New Test for Color Blindness.

A new and accurate test for color blindness has been devised in Sweden and is described in the Upsala Lakareforenings Forhandlingar by Drs. c. c. Bostrom, G. F. Gothlin and H. J. Ohrvar.
 It Is made with a chart on which are evenly scattered patches of color, all very much alike and of irregular outline, showing the white background between them all. They are a light and dark reddish lavender and a dull cherry red. The dull red patches are arranged in such a way that they form a large figure three or six, but as these are exactly the same tone as the lighter lavender 1t would be impos- sible to distinguish the figure unless one was certain of the difference in tint between the red and the layen- der.
 The figures are to be spoken aloud as read.

COUNTY JUDGES TO
 HEAR TAX APPEALS
ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS NEW LAW GIVES THEM POWER TO
 PASS ON APPEALS.
MAY CORRECT ANY ERROR
1t Is Held Tax Must Be Paid, as the Assessment Is Made Upon State of Property at Time of Assessment
 and Not For Future Periods.
Little Rock

Little Rock
 By the act of the recent Legislature abolishing Equalization Boards the power of passing on appeals of prop. erty holders from the action of tax as sessors is in the hands of county judges, according to an opinion of at- torney General John D. Arbqck1e, re- ouested by County Judge Lee Niles and received by him.
 Mir Arbuekle holds that any error or injustice may be corrected by the county judge, provided the aggrieveG person shall file his petition with the court during the term next succeeding the assessment. No appeal filed after the adjournment of the term of court may be allowed, and no petition for adjustment may be entertained after the fourth Wednesday in October of any year
 Another question passed upon by the attorney relates to the payment of tax upon property destroyed by fire immediately and before the time when payment of taxes should be made. The attorney general holds that the tax must be paid. as the assessment is made upon the state of the property at the time of assessment and not for future periods.
 The attorney general also holds that no assessor has the power to. change his assessments after they have been turned in, even though error is dis covered. In such case the tax must be paid. but the property holder may go before the County Court and sub init proof, which. if satisfactory. the court may issue an order for the re- funding of the tax found to be Tn error

Unless some town. commercial or. ganization. county or public spirited citizen in the state will donate a site for the proposed boys industrial school, plans for both the boys school and the girls industrial school will fail, members of the board of the two schools said.

Issues e52 Licenses.

Since January l, 1917. the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has is- sued artificial bait licenses 10 575 resi-. dents of the state and IA nom esidents, and $50 resident hunters licenses. and three to nonresidents, receivine a total of s1013.50 in fees. Resident licenses, both for fishing with arti- fcial bait and hunting are s110, and nonresident hunting and fishing li- censes are s. No license is required for live bait fishing by residents ci Arkansas.

Substitute For Flour.

A cheap substitute for wheat four has been discovered by F. NJ. Spence of Cherry Valley. Cross county, in tie form of four made from sorghum seed at about half the cost of wheat four. MT.
