COUNTY RELIEVES
MILL ROAD TAX
Measure Instituted In Compli-
ance With Ruling Of State
Supreme Court

At meeting of the board Of revenue
yesterday morning the resolution OF
February. 1920. levying a special tax OF
mill to be applied to the working of
the public roads Of the county from
the corporate limits Of the city outs
ward, was restored.
Formal resolutions restoring this
resolution and resembling the action OF
June, 1920. amending the levy by strik-
ing it out and in lieu thereof making a
levy OF mill for the payment and re-
tirement OF certain road bonds held by
a Birmingham bank which the board
agreed to redeem on January 10, 1921,
and to redeem other bonds payable Oc-
tober 1. 1920, were adopted.
This action was taken by the board
in compliance with the recent ruling
of the supreme court on mandamus
proceedings brought by the city for the
purpose of recovering its share of the
taxes which it would have received had
the board not made the amendment.
The city OF Birmingham filed a petit
ton for a writ of mandamus to COM
pei the board of revenue to rescind its
action, following the passage of the
amendment, and to require it to leave
the levy as originally made intact and
to require the board to issue warrant
for $51,05s!11. This amount is alleged
to be one-half of the 1-mill road tax
required to be collected on property
located within the corporate limits OF
the city in the year 1919.
Right to expend all or any part OF
the 1-mill road tax on the north-and-
south and the east-and-west highways
was claimed by the board of revenue.
The maintenance Of these highways
was made mandatory on the board by
an act Of the legislature Of 1915, in
which the board was expressly en-
powered. Ito appropriate any money
subject to its disposal for road pur-
chases to maintain and upkeep these
highways" It was held that the board
Of revenue was without authority to
change the levy In such z way as to
keep the city from collecting its share
az the tax.

! Stunning that the one of marketing was OF
first importance.
in the order of arrangement in Importance
of the problems facing agriculture, the
consensus is that the crux of the agricul-
tural situation is the failure of practically
all other commodities, and particularly
those essential to agriculture, to come
down to the. price levels of agricultural
products, thus enforcing on the farming
fraternity u condition that 1t cannot long
endure, condition that is of deep concern
other result than to imperil the nations
food supply and bring a general business
collapse. 1t is the stern realization of
their utter helplessness under the existing
order that has determined producers to
band themselves together in a national
marketing agency thru which they hope to
effect economies in the selling and distribu-
ton of their products, stabilize markets,
and at the same time benefit consumers.
This phase of the farmers program en-
braces the elimination of speculation in
foodstuffs, the regulation and control of
boards of trade and the right of farmers
marketing organizations to representation
on exchanges
Summary of Replies.
A summary of the individual replies to
this inquiry of the boards shows that,
aside from the development of their own
marketing project, the freight rate question
is easily uppermost in the farmers minds
as the one requiring first and immediate
attention. Excessive freight rates are actu-
ally prohibiting the shipping of many farm
rates are more than the traffic will bear
CrOwding closely upon that of transporta-
ton are the problems of price readjust-
ments on what the farmers have to buy
with what they have TO sell. reduction
in prices of farm machinery to levels cor
responding to the decreases in prices for
farm products and the need of an adequate
supply of competent farm labor at wages
which the farmer can afford to pay. Farm
credits is next emphasized pressing for
attention. both as to short and long time
loans, and for the financing of the small
farmers in the production of livestock of
improved quality. The frequent references
to the encouragement of livestock raising
suggests that farmers appreciate the wis.,
dom of better balanced agriculture thru
diversified farming, and not few throw
out the reminder that better farm manage
ment is a medium for improvement which
is available to all. About per cent of re-
porters note the burden of increasing tax
alton as depressing, and less than per
cent make special mention of tariff legis-
lation as a means of relief to agriculture.
but as the discussion of the tariff was not
made n distinct feature of this inquiry the
small number pointing out this source of
relief may not be indicative of the general
sentiment among farmers at this time.

port a national plan for marketing
farm products as worked out by the

Secretary Mohler in a bulletin COW
ering the Kansas farm sentiment re-
garding cooperative marketing, said
today:
Some of the individuals who are opposed
to collective marketing stated that the gen.
eral sentiment among farmers in their com
munity was favorable to the organized eff
fort being put to improve marketing meth
DDS. and the consensus of the returns shows
that the large majority of the producers are
deeply concerned and that they will get
behind the best plan that is presented and
cooperate to make it success.
Conditions turnout the country have
forced farmers everywhere to give serious
thought to the marketing end of their bust
ness. Probably never before have the farm
ers been so generally aroused as to the ne
cessity of better marketing methods, and
never before has there been such bright
promise of that unity of action so essential
to success. There is practical agreement
that something must be done" There
is practical agreement also that the farm
ers must do it themselves; that they can
depend on no other agency to do it Scr
them, and they are awaiting with no little
i'm patience the complete information as to
just how marketing plans that have been
worked out will function.
From the many expressions on the subject,
it is appreciated that the task is about the
biggest business undertaking ever project

movement is likely to fail without their
standing as 4 unit for the best plan that
can be evolved. 1t is pointed out not IN
frequently that house divided against

pains to urge that preiudices be forgotten

OPENS new EGG MARKET
Reduction of Freight Rates Gives
Kansas shippers Opportunity.

A market area of considerable i'm
portance to the Kansas shippers who
send eggs in carload quantities out of
the state has been opened by the de-
cision of the carriers in the southeast
ern classification territory. to estab-
lish a carload freight rate on eggs
from Kansas to points east of the Mis-
sissippi river. and south of the Ohio
river
Hitherto that entire section of the
United States has been closed to Kan
sas egg shippers because the rate,
which applied to any quantity. was
prohibitive, insofar as getting the eggs
on the market was concerned. The
same rate has been in effect on any
quantity of eggs from 100 pounds to a
carload. The new rate is considerably
lower for carload shipments.
Thousands of carloads of eggs are
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1921-05-02

shipped from Kansas annually. There
are some seventy-five shippers who
export eggs in carload lots, and much
of this business has been centralized
with Topeka as concentrating point
In the past all the eggs have been sent
to the eastern portions of the country.
The saving on the average carload
of eggs shipped into the new territory
will be $50.
The decision of the railroads to
grant the reduced rate came after the
shippers had appeared with a formal
complaint before the interstate COM
merce commission with regard to sim
liar rates in another section of. the
country, and had secured a carload
rate there The roads were of the
opinion that action contemplated by
| the shippers with regard to the south
east would meet with similar success.

To remove the film

Your teeth are coated with dingy film.
1t is viscous you can feel it with your
tongue. 1t clings to teeth, enters crevices
and stays. 1t clouds the teeth and causes
most tooth troubles.
The ordinary tooth paste does not effec-
lively combat it, so the tooth brush has left
much of it intact. AS result, teeth lose
their luster. And, despite all brushing, tooth
troubles have been constantly increasing.
