STATE TAX'0N
RY. BUSINESS
KNOCKED OUT
About $15o,ooo Per Year for
Last Three Years is
Involved.

Washington, Jan. 9.-The excise
taxes imposed by North Dakota upon
railroads within the state were held
by the supreme court today to be in
valid; A. sg@f
The case in which thesdecision was
rendered was an appeal from the
United States district court which sus-
famed III tac asa,shseesu upef tile business
of railroads within the state. The tax
was opposed on the ground that it was
levied on interstate commerce, and for
q period within which the railroads
were under federal control and when
the railroad corporation was hot doing
business within the state.
The tax was imposed upon the en-
tire stock and bond issues of the COM
pany in proportion to the value of the
business transacted by them within
the state to the value of their entire
business.

About $50, 600 Involved.

The case which has now been de-
cided by the supreme court involved
approximately s150.oos, the taxes as
sessed having been on average $780,
900 per year for the years 1919, 1920
and 1921.
All Of the railroads doing business
in the state joined in attacking the
legality Of the assessment.
This is the second time the case
had been before the supreme court,
the tax having been knocked out on
the first occasion on account of lille
gality in the method of assessment
The assessment method was then
changed SO as to be based on the
stock of the company rather than the
amount of business done. and under
these circumstances the tax was up
held in the federal district court

BRITISH RULES FOR
 CARE OF TEETH GIVEN

London, September 2.-Here are the rules of the British Dental as- sociation for the care of children's teeth.
 Be sure the child sleeps with the mouth shut. and when awake breathes through the nose. From the age of two let each meal con tain some food that needs grinding. Begin the child's education in hard foods at nine months by giving 1t bone, preferably a chop bone, with a little meat on, to exercise its gums. Do not let children drink until the end of the meal. Avoid many sweets and sweet biscuits, and only give them as part of meal. Finish each meal with piece of fresh fruit or crisp salad, or if these are not obtainable, a stale crust Of bread, with butter if preferred, but not with jam.
