Velocity of LIGHT.

The velocity of light was obtained
By the Danish astronomer Roemer in
1876, by observing the eclipses of Jupi-
ter's moons. When the earth was
nearest TO Jupiter, the eclipse ap-
pearcd about eight and one-half min
utes too soon for the calculations, and
when tho earth was most remote from
Jupiter, they were about eight and one
half minutes too late. Roemer conclud-
ed the reason to be that it required II
minutes for light from the planet to
traverse the diameter of the earth's
orbiE, which measured the difference
of The distances of the earth from
Jupiter. This calculation has since
been verified, and proves that light
travels about $4,000 miles second.

INCOME TAX PAYABLE MARCH Is
No Extension Beyond that Date for
Filing Returns, Says Revenue
Commissioners.

That there will be no general extern
sion OF time beyond March Is for the
filing of returns and for the payment
OF Income and Excess Profits taxes due
on that date, is the decision Of Daniel
c. Roper, Commissioner of Internal
Revenue.
''It is necessary to get the initial tax
payments in by March IL" says Com
missioner Roper. 'No other course is
possible. Some monthsago, the Treas
ury issued certificates of Indebtedness
to an amount approximating $500, C00,-
600, maturing March Is. The first pay
ment of the Income and Excess Profits
taxes for 1918 WIS planned for that date,
to meet this huge obligation.
1.-THE American people have proven
that there is no emergency too great to
be met and solved by cooperation.
This present situation is another emer-
gency which can by overcome by CO.
operative effort. The Bureau extends
its every force toward this end, and
am relying upon the people TO meet
the situation intellectually.
"The Internal Revenue Bureau must
carry out the programme prescribed in
the new law, which requires all returns
for 1913 to BE filed OH or before March
10, 1919, and requires the first quarterly
payment or the entire payment to he
fnoIa nm nr hafora thut Ioto
Every taxpayer who can possibly do
SO is urged to make full payment OF
his income tax on or before March Is.
The quarterly payment method is in-
tended for taxpayers whose financing
OF the tax at one time would tend 10
upset local financial conditions.
1.-The approval of the report of the
conferees by the Senate and House Of
Representatives brings the new Rev.
enue Bill to the point where it may be
assumed to be law. The Internal Rev.
enue Bureau has been making prepara-
tions to collect the taxes which it pro-
vides, and is now putting all of its CT
forts into aiding the taxpayers TO fulfill
the obligations imposed.
"The Bureau has arranged to send
an advisory force of several thousands
of deputies and agents to assist taXpay-
ers. These officers will be stationed AT
convenient points where they may be
consulted without charge. Taxpayers
should take the initiative and get in
touch with these Revenue men forany
needed advice and assistance in prepar
ing returns.
"The forms for the tax returns are
being printed and all forms will be in
the hands of collectors between Febru
ary Is and March l."

Household Work Savers.

Use plenty of newspapers about
the kitchen, spreading them on the
floor when anything is likely to spat-
to-. 1t is easier to gather them up
t. in to clean up. If there is kitchen
range not in use in the summer time
it is well to prevent dampness and
rust. If the kitchen has but a gas
range, then good-sized waste basket
should be kept and the papers dis
posed of in whatever way is best.

HARVEST OF THE MOUSE
RIVER LOOP POTATO
Burlington's 100000 Bushel Crop
Finds Ready Market at Home
MANY Farmers Failed to Plant

The Burlington potato harvest is on
and it is believed that it will require
three weeks to market the product.
Hundreds of potato pickers have been
at work, including men, women and
children, but the work was delayed
this week on account of Wednesdays S
rain. Potatoes can usually be safely
harvested in this section of the state
up to Oct. Is, tho from past exper-
fences it has been found that it is
we'll to gather the crop as soon after
Oct. / as possible. The work will be
pushed rapidly as soon as the weather
IS more favorable. With modern po-
tato digging machinery, it is not such
IN immense job to take care of the
crop from 100 acres. The pickers are
receiving 8 cents bushel and in the
best fields can pick hundred bushels
in day. It is said that there is plen-
ty of help so far.
The potatoes are turning out about
100 bushels per acre and there IS no
trouble to find a market for them
Most of the potatoes will find q ready
market right at home. Each day
there are numerous buyers from Fox
holm and surrounding towns. A pota.
to market has been established in Bur
lington where a farmer may bring. his
crop. from ten bushels to wagon loac
and receive the cash the, same as thc
he were marketing wheat. It is esti.
mated that 100000 bushels OF potatoes
were raised from the 13OO acres II
