Farm Mortgages Not Generally Taxed.

He explained that the s., 1000, 600
of farm mortgages carried by the in
surance companies, savings banks,
state banks, trust companies and COM
mercial banks escaped the income tax,
and that the income tax paid by these
Institutions is tax only on the profit
on the stock Of these corporations. He
said that the joint stock land banks
now pay an income upon the profit on
their stock the same as these other in
stitutions.
Mr.. Huston also explained that
eleemOsynary institutions which carry
$4O0.0OO,OOO of farm mortgages pay no
income tax.
He said further that $780,
100000 which he classified as To-
cal loans are carried in small
units by local investors who pay
only a local income tax, If they
happen to pay any at ALL These can
not be rewritten under the provisions
of the federal farm loan act because
they have been made on terms and
conditions which could not be accept
ed under the federal law.
Food More Important Than Revenue.
Mr. Huston then showed that In
reality there was left only $3.50 1000. 600
(out Of the original $4,000. 100000 of
loans on farm mortgages) which are
now paying an income tax but which
In the future might escape taxation
under the farm loan act as 1t now
stands.
Mr. Huston said that the need Of the
nation for increased production in
agriculture was so great that the gov
eminent, acting for the common well
fare Of the entire nation, should per
init the issuance of farm mortgage
bonds without their being subject to
the income tax.

In America.

Late model cars of the finer

attitude of the leading automotive
engineers OF America. who are

John C. Walker, president of the

points to a small feature of this new
automobile that is certain to in

removing the oil sediment from a
motor has entailed loss of lubricant
and the cleaning of the oil pan has
been a necessary evil.

the oil returns after circulating
through the high-powered eight
cylinder motor. As it passes into
the reservoir, a fine wire gauze
strainer holds all particles of dirt.

set a new record for the Portland,

days ago
The Cole made the run from Port

and 80 minutes. seven and a half
hours faster that the best previous
running time Even the fast limited
trains between the two cities re-
quire 80 hours so that Mr.. Chapman
and his Cole lowered the rtain rec
ord by an hour and a half
Proof OF the consistent pace set By
the Aero-Eight is found in the fact
that the previous record was made
on the direct route Of the Pacific
Highway. Mr.. Chapman. however.
found various sections Of this high
way closed for repairs and was
compelled to make detours which
added lo7 miles to the distance run.
The Aero-Eight used for the tour
had already been driven more than
5000 miles. There was no special
preparation for the trip. Not even
the spark plugs were cleaned. Large
auxiliary gasoline and oil tank
were carried to insure q constant

An oyerheated engine may not
always be due TO a faulty cooling
system. The mixture supplied by
the carbureter may be too rich, or
the spark may not be advanced

the State Department of Agricul-
