TAXES ARE BEING
PAID IN RAPIDLY.

County Treasurer Blake Rogers re-
ports taxes as being paid in rapidly
and with fewer complaints than COM
mon. despite the fact that the assess.
ments are slightly higher than they
were twelve months ago. The total
amount OF taxes to be collected in
Fremont county this year is <42s. $685.
So. or something like $4,000 more
than was tho case In 1917. The trea-
surer says that usually sp to the end
OF June. one-third Of all the taxpayers
in the county have paid their ssssess.
ments in full; one-third have paid half
of their taxes and tho remaining one
third have not paid anything: having
deferred settlement until after the
second half became due at the first

that for every pound OF wheat flour
sold or purchased under the fifty- fifty
plan there should be purchased equal
weight in wheat substitutes with the
single exception that as temporary
expcdienS potatoes may be eonsid-
cred as a wheat substitute ON the
basis of four pounds OF pot A. res for
one pound wheat substitutes, u other
substitutes are not available.
The instructions from Washington
mean n complete change in the an,
nouncements heretofore made by the
Colorado administrator which -as tc
the effect that the substitutes could
be made on a money value instead OF
a weight basis.
The following ia list OF products
that may be sold as substitutes in
connection with the sale Of flour.
Corn flour. corn mcai. edible corn
starch. hominy. corn grits. barley
