A Sales Tax on Feedstuff.

A sales tax on feedstuf and ferti-
lizer is sought by bill introduced
in the legislature for the state de-
partment of agriculture.
The bill would tax all feedstuffs
and fertilizer sold in the state 10
cents per ton. The tax would yield
the state $40, 900 annually and
would allow extension of the in
spection service, members of the
Legislature joint finance committee
were told.
Only licensed feedstuf and fertil-
izer can be sold in Wisconsin under
the existing law. A fee of $25 is
charged to the manufacturer or
dealer in unlicensed feedstuff and
fertilizer. This is not producing
sufficient revenue to permit adj
equate inspection service, it is
claimed, and manufacturers have
asked a change in the law to supply
the department with additional ia
cilities.

The construction of the Reserve
Mellon railroad cutoff will con
mence early this summer, according
to announcement of 500 Line Off
Gals, says dispatch. The exten.
sion will be 40 miles long and will
make this division Of the 500 road
a main line.
The 500 road now terminates at
Reserve, and it is the desire of the
500 line officials to extend this line
through to Mellen so that connec-
tons with the Ashland Chicago
500 road may be made. The cost
of this extension will be in the mil
lions.
The opening up Of this country
between Reserve and Mellen will
throw open for settlement hundreds
of acres which have been lying idle
because of the inability on the part
of settlers and farmers to market
their produce.

STEEL SITUATION IMPROVES
ACCOUNT AUTO BUSINESS
Increased Operation of Automobile
Plants Cause of Betterment 10 the
Steel Business.

Increased operation of automo-
bile plants is the main cause of
betterment in the steel situation,
says the Iron Age. Apart from
the Ford CO., the motor car in
dustry is now running at about IS
per cert of capacity, and releases
of suspended steel orders have help
ed some mills. However, the eff
feet on the steel industry as whole
IS being overrated as all motor
vehicles built in 1920 consumed
only 5 per cent of the years steel
output.
The expectation os lower prices
for all forms of steel and the belief
that the requisite freight rate re-
auctions may take weeks are hold
ing the market within narrow limits
as to new business.
As whole, the steel industry
is somewhat under one third opera
ton. Some of Steel corporation s
plants in the north, particularly
in the Chicago district, are rolling
less product, while its Alabama
mills are doing better. Some indie
pendent companies are working
more men, notably sheet mills in
Youngstown. Others, after a fort
night of fair operation, are casting
off.
Consumers all along the line
are working for a constant reduc-
ton i'll inventory and thus free
buying of steel is matter of the
future.
Comment in trade on possible
price and wage reductions by the
Steel corporation has turned on the
fact that the corporation 5 earnings
for 1920, if assigned entirely to
steel products, represent Sl2.82
per ton. The losses of some indie
pendent companies on quotations
81 TO s13 per tor below those of
the corporation are not offset by
wage reductions thus far made and
lower prices and lower wages by
the Steel corporation may mean
further wage reductions at other
works.
of the 100000 tons of surplus
steel held by the shipping board and
war and navy departments, it now
seems probable that about 10000
tons held by the war department
will soon be sold.

LENORE.

MADE famous In this country by
lN1 Poe, Lenore is In reality the Span
ish transformation Of one of the most
ancient Of feminine names-Helen.
Its. original root was "Helios," the
Greek sun-gOd who drove his heaven
ly chariot around the heavenly vault
day by day. the name signifying light
and brightness.
Every language, practically, has
brought its distinguishing mark to
the original name, and LenOre Is one
Of the most beautiful and musical
Of the derivatives. In Italy, LeOnora
is one Of the forms, Eleanor in Eng
land, Eileen In Ireland, and so on.
The original Spanish derivative
was Lemore, In which the IN" grad

The jewel assigned to bearers Of
this name Is the beautiful yellow
jacinth-a stone formerly carried by
travellers to insure them against ac-
cident and disease. A fantasy asso-
ciated with this gem is that 1t warns
Its wearer Of approaching danger by
growing pale in color and it also is
supposed to guarantee protection
from lightning. The lucky day Of
Lenore Is Sunday and Is her lucky
number. To dream of her natal stone,
the yellow jacinth, Is interpreted to
mean success In any undertaking she
may be interested In at the time.

THE origin of mOnOgrams Is prob

that the Greeks and Romans used
these devices. The merchants Of the
Middle Ages used caballstic intertwin-
ings Of letters as their distinctive
marks, and the great Charlemagne
used cipher as his signature to con-

time painters and printers also had
their private marks made Of their ini-
