Of the income tax machinery. Re-
ally, tax dodgers have very little
chance.
Income tax collectors have &C

transfers OF all kinds are filed
They have available, IL they wish,
all brokerage accounts. They can
tell by investigation. and they are
doing it all the time. just how
much money a man made on the
stock market and whether he gave
the government the proper share.
The process is not merely to in
vestigate each man. That would
take too long. But each brokerage
firm, for instance, must show how
much it has paid to individuals in
excess Of $500. 1t must show how
much individuals paid to the bro
kerage firm. The government tab

CAR SITUATION NO BETTER

Secretary MohIcr and Judge Reed
Promise Little Relief.
There is little hope of lettering the
freight car situation at this time, ac-
cording to a statement from ]. c.
Mohler. secretary of the state board
of agriculture. on his return from
Washington. D. C.. where with mem
bers of a committee a call was made
on the interstate commerce commits
sion to show that body how badly
Kansas needed box cars and to i'm
press on the federal reserve board
how badly farmers needed credit.
Chairman Clark of the interstate
commerce commission was very
courteous and asked a number of in
telligent questions" Mohler said. HE
pointed out that several large eastern
cities are just one cay ahead of coal
famine right now. and said these must
be given priority. We got no prom
ises of more cars for Kansas, but from
the line of questions feel hopeful that
additional efforts will be made to fur
nish this section of the country with
more box cars and motiye power"
Governor Harding of the federal re-
serve board did promise that farmers
would be extended necessary credits,
Mohler stated.
A prediction that more cars than at
first were thought needed to handle
the wheat crop were necessary, was
made by Judge Clyde NJ. Reed. Judge
Reed is getting weekly reports from
the railroads and informal reports
from grain and elevator men almost
daily. From these reports Judge Reed
believes the 1920 wheat crop will yield
135 million bushels instead of the 10
million bushels predicted at first.
Hence, the need for even more box
cars.
From the railroad reports Judge
Reed learns that the box car situation
in Kansas is serious with little prom

SAME OLD STORY

The same old farce was enacted be-
fore the council the other night when
Superintendent Burns of the Seaboard
came in and handed our elder states
men a few samples of the slick hot
air that every well-regulated railroad
keeps in stock to save its money ct
the expense of human life and limb.
We don't blame Mr.. Burns-it' S
part of his business, like the business
of a criminal lawyer to keep scoun-
drels out of the penitentiary. But
there is no excuse for the council,
when it knows by past experience
that the Seaboard is not likely to keep
it's promises.
About four years and half ago,
the then superintendent Of the Sea
board, had the condition of the Broad
way crossing called to his attention
and promised that trains should go
over it at the speed limit. How well
the promise has been kept, hundreds
of Ocala citizens, who have seldom
seen train go over that crossing at
less than fifteen miles an hour, can
testify. A good many times in the
next year we heard complaints of the
speed made by the trains and timed a
good many of them; once the council
demonstrated and was given the same
old line of cuff; then came the war
and no good citizen felt like asking
a train to slow down. But now the
railroads are back in the hands Of
their owners. and there is no reason
why they should save money by leav-
ing dangerous places along their lines
A few weeks ago q careless Negro
driving a car out that street struck
a train and was killed. He was nc
doubt exceeding the speed limit, but
it is perfectly certain the engineer OF
the train was doing the same thing
Some people say the car was going
thirty miles an hour. If it was, from
where the driver was obliged to see
the train. he would have cleared il
unless the train was running fifteer
miles an hour. The train did moi
strike the auto; the auto struck the
train-struck the car back of the en-
CINE. That train was going some, fol
the locomotive and part of one car tt
go over that crossing in time to bt
run into by an auto whose driver
couldn't have helped seeing it fifty
yards off-that is, if he was running
thirty miles an hour.
We doubt that the negro was driv
ing any faster than twenty miles al
hour. If he had been going at thirty
and the train running slow, he woult
have cleared the crossing. If he haC
been going at twenty, he would have
stopped, or at the most the engine
would have struck his auto, instead
of his auto striking the train fifty

helluva mess, costing billions, which
the people have to pay. The govern
ment gave the railroads back to their
owners and the people have learned
50 much that most of them are willing
to have passenger and freight rates
raised SO the roads can give better
service and repair the wreck Of war.
But it looks like the roads, judging
by the Seaboard, have resumed their
former Indifference to human life and
preference of killing or manning peo-
pie to spending money for watchmen

Sick Headache
is q WARMING
1t Reveals a Condition Which PEPSI
MOL Will Easily Overcome


Men and women who keep their di-
gestive organs functioning properly
by taking Pepsinol are free from sick
headaches. This wonderful stomachic
stimulant combats and overcomes IL
gestive faults which cause biliousness,
sourness of breath and nerve irrita-
ton that brings on headaches.
Sick headaches are an unfailing
sign of digestive disorders. Pepsinol
contains the efficient ingredients that
tone up your stomach, helps it do its
work and overcomes headaches. AS a
digestive tonic, it also promotes thor
ough food assimilation and helps IN
the extraction of the food elements
that make pure, red blood and healthy,
strong tissues.

HOW ALFALFA COMPARES
WITH COTTONSEED CAKE

The value of a feed rich in pro-
tein as a portion of a ration for both
growing heifers and mature cows
has been repeatedly demonstrated,
but those who have no farm raised
protein feed often ask whether it will
be cheaper to buy alfalfa or some
other feed rich in protein. Others
who raise alfalfa often ask whether
it will pay to sell the alfalfa and buy
cotton-seed or linseed cake. An an
swer to both questions will depend
upon the market price of these vari-
Gus protein supplement feeds and the
relative feeding value as. "a protein
supplement of a ton of each, tests
carried indicate.
For all practical purposes the re-
suits of the test indicate that it re-
quires approximately 3.5 pounds of
alfalfa hay to equal 1 pound of cot
tonseed or 1inseed cake as protein
supplement for stock cattle. This
ration, 1 to 3.5, will prove a satisfac-
tory one to use in determining the
economy of using either alfalfa hay
or cottonseed or linseed meal as a
protein supplement in feeding stock
cattle.

BETTER DEMAND
FOR THE HORSE
OIL AND COTTON INDUSTRIES
STRIPPING FARMS OF
WORK ANNALS
Expert Says the Good Horse Should
Be Sound, Have Good Eyes, Con-
formation and Weigh About 1900
Pounds; One of Most Important
Assets Is Good Feet.


The demand for horses is improv
ing, due largely to sales in the south
ern states. The expansion of the cot
ton industry is responsible. The cot
ton growers prefer mules, and farm
ers are selling their mules for ship
ment to the cotton states, and re
placing them with horses.
In the buying of horses it is to the
advantage of the farmer to buy {
good grade of work horses. The bes
type for farm use is one of abou
1900 pounds. 1t should be sound
have good eyes, proper conformation
and have good action.
Should Have Bright Eyes.
The appearance of the eyes should
be bright. They should have nc
specks or growths upon them. The
size of the eyes should be large A
test of blindness is to move the finger
close to the eye of the horse. This
should be done slowly so that no air
current resulting from the move
ment strikes the horses eye.
One of the most important assets
useful feet. They should be good
sized, of firm texture, should not
show cracks, and should not be shell
ly or brittle: A shelly or brittle foot
will break easily, and will not hold a
shoe. The foot should not be shall
low, but should have plenty of depth,
and good width at the heel. The shape
should be well rounded, rather than
narrow and pinched in.
Note the Animals Legs.
The legs should set squarely I'M
der horse. No buyer should take a
horse that has crooked or Sickle
shaped hind legs. The knee and
hook joints should be large and free
from puffiness, and any enlarge
ments.
This conformation of the animal
should receive close attention since
nearly as much depends on this
point, from the standpoint of the
work that the horse can do, as upon
anything else. 1t should have slop-
ing shoulders, a strong sloping back,
and wide string of ribs.
Action an Important Point.
Action is very important to work
animal. A horse should have long,
straight stride, with plenty of snap
and life in order to do a full days
work. 1t should move straight rath-
n than throw its feet either in or out.
Any lameness in a horse should be
closely observed in order to see
whether the lameness is temporary
)r permanent. The safest rule to
ollow, if the animal shows any sign
If lameness, is to. let it alone.
The person who keeps good grade
lraft mares can expect to make |
money on the colts of these mares
My when he selects good stations
n jacks to breed these mares to. The |
Inference in the market value of |
,ood work horse and poorer grade |
5 so great that it will hardly pay the
reeder to raise a poor grade of
took, while better grade will bring
good profit.
