amount of the tax together with all
interest. penalties and costs that may
accrue in addition thereto by an action

tion of the amount involved, and II
shall be sufficient, for the purpose OF
establishing the claim of the plaintiff,
to prove the assessment of the tax and
the facts and circumstances connected
with making the same. Upon the re-
covery of judgement in any such SUIT
il shall he the duty of the State Treasurer
forthwith outilzc the most expeditions

ton of the amount of the judgement
so recovered; and ii is hereby ex-
pressly provided that no property, wages,
salaries or other income Of any tax-

BY JOHN A FTSHEL.

The choice Of a breed for the back
yard flock is largely up to the individual
taste Of the owner. though 1t is advisable
to select variety which Is suited to
limited quarters. Some fowls do better in
confinement than others. Also. some
breeds make better table poultry, which
is an important consideration in backyard
operations. The back -Iotter wants eggs,
of course: at the same time he wants a
fowl that can be killed for dinner, once the
fowl has served its utility as layer. These
features are pointed out in the following
