FARM MARKETING IS CRUDE
Biggest Business Is Often Not 6usi
 nessLIke

neSSlfke
 Farming is the biggest business in the United States. Food and textile production represents a capital ln- Vestment greater than that of the railroads and manufacturing plants put together; it's output last year was worth above 20 billion dollars. Yet this great industry markets its pro ducts in a manner that would drive the strongest corporation 10 bank ruptcy in a short time.
 When the farm output is ready for market it represents NeSrs produc- ton. No manufacturing concern would pile up it's product and at the end of the year rush all 10 the market. Farm products should be marketed accord ing to demand. over a 12-month period Nor should there be low prices when the farmers have crops to, sell, and high prices later.
 The crops must always be carried by loans in Some form.- They are SC carried now; but the system should be changed. The national warehouse act offers a starting point for an in telhgent system of marketing and financing crops Properly stored graded and insured agricultural pro- ducts could be made 4 sound basis oi credit for short time investments Neither the federal reserve nor the banks should be asked to carry this great load. It should .be carried by the investing public, 10 whom it right fully belongs and the crop should be moved as needed.-sWall Street Jour. nal.

BILLION DOLLAR
 CURTAILMENT IS SUGGESTED BY TAX COMMITTEE
[RepubIIcsn A. 9. Leased wlrsl

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Recommen- datons for a radical revision of the feddral tax laws. calling for a curtail- ment of more than one billion dollars yiear, were made public today by tho tax committee of the industrial tax board.
 The report expressing the opinion of only the committeeman. will be sub mitted as a basis for discussion as the thirl national industrial tax confer ence which will convene here January 21-22,
 The report presents the following recommendations:
 Repeal of the excess profit tax. which would diminish federal taxes S900 100000 per annum.
 Reduction of surtax rates. which would entail a loss of $20O 000OO an nually.
 A provision that business losses for any year should be deductible from the income derived during the succeeding year or the preceding year which would curtail taxes $50, 1000, 900 yearly
 The committee opposed a sale or turnover tax in the recommendations for remedial changes. These changes the report stated, would have but little effert on the gross revenue derived frofh taxation. The committee de- clared that the proposal for an excise tax on the privilege of holding land and natural resources is unsound.
 Sincere and vigorous retrenchment in public expenditures must stand be- hind any tax system aimed to worl, permanent public improvement" the -eport said.

 The holdup was staged near the cor uer of Fifth and Jackson streets by negro man and woman. The woman first accosted LeFever and asked him for a cigarette. A negro man imme- diately stepped from a nearby place of concealment and represented that he was a night watchman. He de- manded to know what LeFeYer was doing around the warehouses Of tn~ vicinity and attempted to search Le- Fever. claiming he was looking for gun. When LeFever resisted, the ne h gro struck him with a flash-light he carried. The victim of the holdup ran and discovered his loss when several blocks distant The police made an investigation of the case. A negro woman participated in a similar TOD bery few weeks ago near the f- M- C. A. building.

A WoMAN,s CIGARETTE

At Westminster police court, last week, before MT. Cecil Chapman, Miss Eveline Bagge of Duke street, Gros- venor square, was summoned for in- ringing the bylaws of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway company by smoking in a carriage not set apart for smoking.
 Mr. Rutherford, for the company, said that it was the first time he had to prosecute a woman for this offense. Miss Bagge was a first class passen- ger from Horsham to Victoria. She was alone in the compartment and was smoking a cigarette when the guard placed several other ladies, two of them mistresses of a school for girls, beside her. The new arrivals pointed out that it was not a smoking carriage but Miss Bagge persisted in smoking
 Mir. Purchase. for the defendant, said that the guard put five other persons with third-class tickets in the same compartment Miss Bagge. thinking oi the recent change of regulations as tc smoking in railway carriages, was un der the impression that she was en- titled to smoke. One of the women made some remarks, and then delib- erately knocked her cigarette and golo and tortoiseshell holder, which cost five guineas, out of her mouth on tC the line. Naturally, in the circum- stances the defendants attitude was not so conciliatory as it might have been. The incident would be the sub- ject of other proceedings, as the cigar cite holder was lost. It was a regret 1 table matter on both sides and hC asked that no conviction should be re corded
 Mir. Chapman agreed to this. It was l he said, a vegetable matter. but h. thought two guineas costs would mee the case.-London Times Weekly.

 The commission says also that the law instead of increasing the strength of the already great American lndus- trial establishments. has enabled the smaller concerns to band together in a fashion to push fully organized eX- port trade in a keen competitive man ner which they are not able to do al home. To this extent, the commission believes, the law has worked to the great advantage of the small firms
