mittee which met to begin the eight
billion dollar revenue bill.
No definite decision was reached

be taxed.
Shoes costing more than specified
amount must bear their share of the
war burden. Expensive clothing for
both men and women will also b.
heavily taxed, with the tax growing
greater as the price increases.
Among the proosed taxes are ten
cents a gallon on gasoline: SO per
cent on the retail price Of jewelry; a
tax on mems clothing costing over $50

er $40 and children's clothing cost

Distributing and packing silage in

cut corn to fall in one place In the

blown to the outside and the heavier
parts, ears and butts Of stalks, are
deposited in the center, this causes an

often attributed to the silo.

MAKING MONEY WITH CATTLE
Possibilities of Beef Production From
Winter Grazing Shown at North
Carolina Station

The noney-making possibilitie. OF
beef production frcm winter grazing
AVE been demonstrated in series
o. experiments conducted jointly by
the North Carolina experiment sta
tion and the bureau of animal in
dustry. The cattle depended upon
pasture for food during the winter
months. The experiments covered
period of three years. Seventeen
steers were used the first year, the
average initial weight being 515.5
pounds. The final weight indicated
gain Of 55.5 pounds each, and the
total cost of wintering was only S4.sS
per steer. For the second year 20
steers were used. The average initial
weight Was 7U5 pounds, and the gain
during l31 winter days was Il pounds.
per steer.
The cost of wintering each animal
was $5.1J. In the third year 10 AMI
mails made an average gain or 20
pounds in 119 winter days; the cost
for wintering being $3.50.
When we take into consideration the
fact that wintering animals in this
way, in addition to giving them gains
puts them in such condition that they
will readily take on flesh il the spring
and summer, it is a strong indicafloh
tI,at this plan of handling them Is d
good one as there is nothing TO lose.
