ARE MANY KINDS OF SALMON
Bureau of Fisheries, in Report on
Pacific Fisheries, Lists Large
Number of Varieties.

Salmon Is salmon to most persons,
but there are many kinds of salmon
10 those who know a "hawk from a
handsaw" and a salmon from a sal
mon. The bureau Of fisheries, in a
report on Pacific salmon fisheries, lists
the following Pacific species Of the re-
nowned fish. Chinook, quinnat or
king salmon; humpback or pink sal
mon; dog or chum salmon; sockeyed
blue-back or red salmon; silver or
coho salmon, and steel-head trout.
All these salmon, with the exception
of the steel-head, are included in the
genus "Oncorhynchus," and that tough
looking word Is made up Of the
Greek word "onkes," meaning a barb
or a hook, and another Greek word
"rynchus," meaning a snout, so that
genus OF fish is distinguished by a
"hook snout." The steel-head trout,
cIassed as a salmon, belongs to a
closely related genus called "salmo."
which is a word probably derived
from the Celtic and the significance
of which is disputed.

THE BEST MISSISSIPPI NEWS.

Live news from Mississippi is
usually political. But the best bit
of news out of Mississippi this
year is that she has raised more
corn than she needs for next years
normal needs. Mississippi has
been buying corn for many years,
while at the same time helping to
glut the worlds cotton markets.
Economic independence for Miss
issippi lies in planting more food
and feed stuffs, and growing no
more cotton than cam be profitab-
ly raised. Our varied soils and
ideal climate make it possible for
us, not only to grow most every
thing grown elsewhere, but to
grow some things that cannot be
grown much further north. We
should be rich agricultural state
richest among the rich. More corn
and less cotton will take us some
of the way. he southern farmer
changed his tactics this year, and
as a result the advanced price of
cotton has enriched the South

perity. Keep up the good work.

SUPERVISORS TO FIX ROAD.

To the Tax Prayer:
The most important step IN Tx

WILL FIX THE ANNUAL TAX
RATES, FOR THE COUNHT1,GT' My
FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS,
AND FOR THE ROAD DIS
TRICTS. In some counties, tne
taxes imposed by the Supervisors,
last year, were six times as great
as the State tax, and most OF the
State tax was returned to the
counties for the public schools
and Confederate pensions. Some
counties received more from the
State than the total State tax col
lected from all the taxpayers IN
the county. =.
The development of our public
school system and the cOnStruc-

all; yet these are largely respon-
sible for the increase made IN tax
es in recent years: You may verify
this for yourself BY comparing
your tax receipt for last year with
that for ten years ago.
The Supervisors then determine
whether these expenses will be

the other side of the picture. Rosy
optimism is of value, but refusal
to face the facts accomplish moth
ing.
To begin with, the entire world
is in a disorganized state, most Of
it worse off than we. International
credit and exchange are in a sad
state of affairs. Racial suspicious
and political miStrust hamper at
tempts to readjust matters. Busi-
ness has become SO much an in
ternational affair, that these fac
tors cannot but have their effect,
as long as the rest of the world is
in turmoil, we are likely to feel
the results.
Another powerful factor, in our
own country, has been the effect
of our system of war Taxation.
With more than $100,000,000
worth of non-taxable securities
issued, it is not surprising that
capital should turn to these. There
has been little incentive to put
money into business wher the pro-
fits would be taken, in one way or
another, by taxes, when the same
money might as easily be put into
securities that would yield a fair
return, entirely exempt from gov
|ernment levy. The result has been
that this capital has been practi-
cally retired from circulation, as
far as business has gone, and it
has been virtually impossible to
finance a new enterprise, to say
nothing of the difficulty of keep
ing those already existing in or
peration.
When this handicap is removed,
through an altered system of taxa
ton, business is likely to show
signs of renewed life, economic ex-
perts declare.
Further relief would be afford
ed if something could be done in
the matter of freight rates. 1'rans-
rportation is so truly the very art
cry of business, that when it is
strangled all business must feel
it's effect. Even the plan to increae
public construction to give employ
ment to more men is hampered by
the fact that freight rates makes
the shipment of building mater
ials almost prohibitive.
Just what will be done in this
direction, no one can say, although
it SENS practically assured that
congress will shortly lower or
abolish the tax on freight. Freight
rates, themselves, cam hardly come
down much, on the basis of pres
ent wages, and trainmen are show
ing little disposition, as might be
anticipated, to accept cut.
Taken as whole, things are
still rather chaotic, but here and
their, through the clouds, the sun
manages to pee.

HISTORY-WHILE IT'S NEWS

| Your youngsters are learning
| considerable about history in
tschool Its, right that they should.
History is a valuable study be-
cause by learning what people
have done you can forecast to a
tcertain extent what they are go
ing to do and understand what
they are doing now.
| But do your youngsters know
what is going on in the world
now? Probably not much, unless
you are remarkable parent or
or their teacher is a remarkable
person.
| History has always been taught
with both eyes strictly on the past
and that is why most teachers to-
| day refuse to leave the beaten
path and make the pupils study
the newspapers as well as the text
books. Possibly some of the teach
| ers don't read the newspapers very
thoroughly themselves.
But let's consider what you can
find in the news sheets today. 1t
will tell you of America during the
reconstruction following the
worlds greatest war. Of the fight
the great British empire is making
to carry on, with Ireland striving
to be free, with India restless and
angry, and with English labor
from London to Liverpool engag-
ed in strike and riots. 1t will
show you a picture of great ma
tion (America) going across the
Atlantic ocean to the rescue of the
starving in Russia without the
hope of even thanks and with only
suspicion as her reward. And
lot of other things.
One of these days teachers are
going to hold classe in histroy in
which newspapers will be used as
we'll as textbooks. One has done so
already. His name is Joho Leon
ard Conger, professor in history
at Knox College. "What are we do

tell al lie." And George told them.
One day the country went dry
by the vote of the birds who fig
ured that water was created for
more than running under bridges.
Georges father had not seen the
typewriting on the wall and his
private stock was gone in about
three hilarious evenings.
1t so happened that Georges
dady had a lawn. On this lawn,
try as he might, he had never been
able to eradicate the dandelions.
But he was glad. He used to go
out on the porch and gaze for
hours at the sprightly little dan
delions lifting their lovely heads
among the dewy grass blades. He
had and idea, but he kept it to him
self.
Now George was a faithful, 10y
al worker about the house. And
one day he decided to improve the
appearance of the lawn. During
the course of the afternoon he
chopped the heads from all the
pretty dandelions and squirted
their innards full of chemicals.
He was all for improving the ap-
pearance of the lawn.
That evening when his daddy
came home, the dandelions had all
died and were lying on the lawn
all withered and dry.
His father was wroth, nay, ne
was ultra-angry. He stormed like
an April rainstorm. The neigh
bors heard him and took to their
cyclone cellars. He, suspicioned.
He found George in the kitchen
washing the paper plates.
George said he, u came home

iously lit up some day and now

SIGNS OF RETURNING BUSI-
NESS.

There are increasing signs on
everyh and that business In on
the upgrade. Things are a long
way from normal and it will per-
haps be a matter of years rather
than months before things boom
again, but there seems to be def
mite Improvement.
The automobile business, which
was one of the most severely hi,
shows increased shipments, par
ticularly the Fords, Studebakers
and Franklins, and an increase in
the amount of gasoline used,
reaching several hundred of thou
sands of gallons daily, is noted
over last year. The number of
idle railway cars is lower, busi-
ness in hides and leather is pick
ing up, silk goods are in greater
demand, the raw wool market is
better.
The steel industry, always one
of the best indicators of the state
of business, shows increasing ac-
tivity. Will Hays, postmaster
general, announces an increase in
the volume of business handled
by his department.
Bank credits are noticeably bet
ter, and banks are now support
ing sound propositions. Collec-
tions are slightly better. The pro-
cess of liquidation and dehation
has been largely accomplished.
Mercantile stocks, both wholesale
and retail, have been reduced to
a minimum.
The unemployment situation
has been bit easier of late, al
though it must be remembered
that this is largely due to the tenn
porary activity on the farms dur
ing the harvest, and that thous-
