FLORIDA TAXES

Nearly everybody grumbles about
taxes. The paying out of good money
for expenses Of government is always
painful. however. necessary II may be.
and the cheerful taxpayer is rare But
In the matter Of taxes. as in many
other matters, Florida has a dig ad-
vantage over most other states OF the
Union. According TO table compiled
by a Nebraska statistician. taxes in
Florida are little mere than a third as
much per capita as they are IN Cali
fornia and ether Pacific coast states.
Here are a few comparisons OF per
capita taxation IN d number OF widely
separated states: Nebraska, $40, 40 :;
Iowa, s4912; Kansas. 3S.45: Illinois.
s33.02; North Dakota, Seas; South
Dakota. $3.50; Pacific Coast states,
So and So; New England States,
average about SIG: Florida, s1s.2S.
and South Carolina. s1760
Assuming that these figures are
correct. the Florida citizen is doubly
fortunate He enjoys the privilege Of
living Il state favored ozer other
states n most things that make life
worth while, and pays less taxes than
be would f be lived almost anywhere
else N the country .-Ta-pon Springs

not only as good but better pork than
