TAXABLE VALUES
 SHOW INCREASE Tax Assessors Figures on Birmingham Property
 Show Increase

The total taxable value of property in Birmingham is $106, STA ,556, showing an
 increase of $2,553,073 in the past year. ac- cording to figures just given out by the county tax assessor. The total figures for the county are: Real estate, s1O6,- 75o,364; personal property, s6S ST, ,779; total
 s17o, CPS, ,173.
 These figures represent the taxable val '. ues for 1919. The state and county tax Taxes on Birmingham property will be $1, ,0o5 54556, or an increase of s25 53O 70 over 1918.
 In the Bessemer cutoff taxable values are as follows: Real property, s13, 4,6H {;
 personal property $5,997S64 total. sls,- 722,5 ,505. On this property the state and county will collect s355, ,005.69 The increases for the entire county over 1918 are: Real estate. sl,06S,i97; personal
 property, $to46S75. Personal property m
 the county shows a gain of about five
 million dollars in 1919 over 1918. It has been pointed out that while the personal property values are fixed from year to year the values of real estate were fixed several years ago by the board of equalization for a four-year period. The comparatively small increase in real estate values is accounted for in this way.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, September -Four marke continues to display the same character istics as it has since Monday, namely the presence of enough demand unde present conditions to maintain prices Today Liverpool recovered from the de pression of yesterday as was fore shadowed yesterday.
 The gulf storm has not yet developed it's true course so that the fear of dam age to the crop from it is ever present.
 A report was current that the deteriora ton of the crop would be over four points during the past fortnight. These facts brought a range of prices higher thar yesterday during the session, but not enough buying power appeared to ma terially change prices. Last Friday De- cember closed at 29.15. At this moment December is about 29 cents, which shows how evenly balanced the factors have been since last week.-Hubbard Bros. < Co

 There has been strong prejudice among housewives against oleomar- garine, due probably to the fact that for some years interruptions dealers labeled it and sold it as butter Peo- pie are beginning to understand now that oleomargarine has a cartain def mite place in the cuisine. It Is excel lent for cake shortening. For all pur- poses of nutriment oleomargarine is the same as butter; it has exactly the same balance of fats and many people have come to like it as well as butter ness there is no question or doubt; it comes down. therefore, simply to question of taste and habit.

Grape juice, on the other hand, not only stimulates the di- gestive organs, but is rich in sugar and certain mineral salts which make it a

LESSEN THE COST, BUT
 NOT THE FOOD VALUE
By Jean Prescott Adams Director Department of Food Economies,
 Armour & Co.)

Armour & Co.)
 Wise mothers and homemakers must steer their families clear of the notion that they are not getting full food value just because their tastes are not pampered at every meal.
 Hundreds of letters received at my desk show that most pampered tastes grow abnormal and defeat the purpose for which we eat complete nutrition and efficiency.
 There is no household allowance so liberal that the housewife does not have to debate often as to what the family really needs and what may be considered as unnecessary. This prob lem is even more difficult when table expenses must be kept down ''as low as possible" How familiar that term is and yet how hard it is to meet the problem.
 Every housewife today has some smattering of domestic science, II not learned at school acquired by tradi- tion. handed down from mother to daughter, as is generally the case in foreign families. We need certain amount of fat, a certain proportion Of sugar and starch foods, and fresh, green vegetables for their bulk and mineral properties A we'll balanced and therefore economical meal does not serve too large a proportion of fat CT starch, and yet includes suffl- cient fresh greens and fruit juices.
 Good food is cheaper than doctor s bills or stomach troubles that reduce the working force of the family. When the system demands certain foods for health, such foods are removed from the class of luxuries to necessities.
 The body needs a certain amount of fat, but it is not necessary that this fat should be always in the form of high priced dairy butter. Bacon pro- Vidcs fat in norrishing form that ca , be taken even by young children; it is certainly an extravaganza to eat but ter with meal that includes bacon.
 The question of what should be eaten on bread is much a question of tradi-
