Shipment of the material not yet

Members of the Seward County

sales of stock are pretty fair, and if
there should be more buyers at

materially. 1t should be a matter

Poor-Cow Tax
Should Not Be

Don't pay two taxes" is the timely
slogan of the Door County (Wis.)
Live Stock Committee.
Few farmers realize that they are
paying in addition to their regular
tax ''poor-cow tax" This "poor
row tax" is about the heaviest. robs
the pocketbook. and profits no one.
You have Just paid your annual
property tax. This is necessary to
provide for our schools. roads, and
other government expenses from
which you benefit, but why pay two
taxes" is the appeal which. in the
shape of a little card. is being placed
in the hands of Door County owners
Of scrub sires. And the prospect"
who wants TO be shown is pointed to
results which were worked out in a
farm management survey. where 1t
was found that on 124 farms with
pure bred sires the average net profits
were s1.102; on 4G6 farms with
grade sires hte profits averaged s734,
and on SO farms with scrub sires
there was an annual loss averaging
1924.
The scrub sires on these farms
were responsible for at least part of
the good or bad showing. A poor
bull is an extravaganza which Door
county farmers can not afford.
