HAD QUITE AN EXPERIENCE

Carson Appeal: W. J. Hunting.
State superintendent of Public In
struction, had a rather unpleasant ex-
perience on his way home from the
eastern part of the State.
A man was aboard with smallpox
and was removed from the train at
Elko. At Reno when the passen-
gers made ready to leave the train
they we're informed they must wait
for the health officer and when he ar
rived they were taken to the pest
house and all the necessary precau-
tions taken to prevent the spread Of
the disease.
Mr.. Hunting was given a pair Of
overalls and a sweater several sizes
too small. Not caring to wear these
home he telephoned Mrs. Hunting
who went by auto to Reno carrying
the necessary raiment. All his per-
sonal effects were kept to be fumi-
gated before returning them to him.
California and Oregon have been
having smallpox within their borders
for the past few months, and with
the disease in Utah, it stands the au-
thorities to take every p~recaution to
keep it from gaining a foothold in
this State.

The management Of the State Fair
has shown its recognition of the
worth Of the Kentucky Farm Bu-
reau Federation by setting aside one
of the best days of Fair Week as
Farm Bureau Day. Many county

nounced that they will send delega

Members Of the Kentucky Fedora
ton will be interested in action of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
tion which at a recent meeting of the
executive committee took steps to
see that nothing is done by the nat
ional law makers to shift greater
burden from industrial interests to
the farmers Of the nation
The decision on taxation followed
IA review Of agitation which has been
inspired by some industrial interests,
for repeal Of the present excss profits
tax which taks from net earnings
of corporations and other businesses
forty per cent of all profits in excess
of twenty percent net profit on in
vestment. This tax last year raised
for the government alone almost two
billions Of dollars. Several substi-
tutes have been proposed but all
would operate to shift this tax burden
in a more or less degree to the ul-
innate consumer.
The American Farm Bureau Fed
eration's idea is that the big tax bur
den of the country should be borne
largely by the interest most able TO
pay and should not be paid out of
the living wage which is all that
the average individual consumer has.
1t is also contended that the excess
profit tax has not crippled business
to any discernible extent and that
it seems conservative tax. Great
Britain levies a similar tax Of 60
percent.
