FARMERS WONDERING
HOW TO PAY TAXES
WITHOUT BORROWING
CBv Associated Press)

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 17-How
shall we pay our taxes without Dor
rowing money, is a common question
among farmers of the state, according
to George u. Martin, head of the Ohio
division of markets. "They are men
of thrift and industry, too said Mr..
Martin. land they are faced with this
question. probably for the first time
in their lives

continued, but one forced upon the
farmers, through no mismanagement
of their own, but as a result of con-
ditions against which they are strus-
Cling, and from which they are seek
ing relief. 1t is due both to the extra
ordinary high rates of taxation, and
the prevailing low rates which agricul-
tural products are commanding.
"One, who voiced this view of the
matter. is a successful farmer living

in all his experiences such a situation
has presented itself. He expresses his
views in this way:

Steps Will Be Taken to Ar range for Census of Ex-
 Service Men.

| INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. 16.- The most important meeting of the American Legion ever held between national conventions will be called in this city January 20 and 21, to arrange for a censhs of every ex- service man and woman in the coun- try. The plan that National Con- mander Hanford MacNider will pre- sent to delegates calls for personal interviews by Legion convassers of all veterans.
 y c. R. Forbes, director of the United States Veterans Bureau will come as the personal representative tof President Harding and Federal Judge K. M. Landis, of Chicago, will be one of the speakers.

 The census will be known as a service and compensation campaign and is modelled after the Iowa plan" successfully used in that state when Mr MacNider was commander hu hn n- ton, the census will be undertaken at once. The country will be divided
 into districts, with a Legion con- mitteeman to supervise. Districts will be small enough so that thor ough canvassing can be assured.

MT. MacNider has plan whereby vet erans will be given the option of turning their compensation payments into a general fund, to be admin istered by the Legion and out of which loans will be made to dis abled, unemployed or needy com rades He believes this fund will total several million dollars. Can vassers in the census will ascertain how many veterans will lend money to this fund.
 The subject of unemployment also will be considered at the convention and some means devised whereby the Legion can assist nationally in plac- ing ex-service men in jobs. com- mittee will bring in a report on the memorial proposed in honor of the late F. w. Galbraith, who was kill

ORIENT HERRING
 MARKET SHOWING
 MARKED ADVANCE

VANCOUVER. B. C., Jan. 16.-- Every steamer leaving for the Orient has a consignment of herring going to China or Japan from this port. The herring market has improved materially in China during the past month, and the demand gives every promise of absorbing the entire out put. About 16,O00 tons have gone across the Pacific already and the Nanaimo run has only commenced.
 Mild weather has brought the fish to the surface again and made it possible for the fishermen to manip- ulate their nets, and the herring catch has been good for the past three weeks. Most of these fish, however, were caught on the West Coast. Last week the herring shoals were noticed for the first time on the inside of Vancouver Island, and fishermen report the run to be very good.
 Prices on herring opened this year at $40 c. i. f. Hongkong, on a freight rate of $S, including handling and  wharfage. Shortly after the brokers had quoted their Oriental. houses on this basis, the shipping companies raised the freight to $9 and eliminat- ed handling and wharfage. With ex- change reckoned, this made herring S10.72 c. i. f., instead of $S.30, but as the brokers had already quoted the opening price to China they were forced to absorb the difference at this end.
 Some dealers made no money on their early shipments because of this change in freight conditions. The f. a. s. quotation on herring has now dropped to s35, and the market in China has responded readily with d number of new cabled orders.
 According to packers the herring export this year will run to nearly double the aggregate of last year, and prices have been much more stable than they were in the winter of 19l9-1920.
