How the Confederates Paid Taxes

How the concentrates Paid IaXeS
We were poor refugees in 1864 and
1865, but the taX-gatherer was on
the job.
I hold in my hand as / write this
article a copy Of the Bacon tax we
had to pay on March II, 1865. The
of $50 pounds of pork for family
use. 1t was hard to tell what we
did have on taxing day that year,
because we were raided by Stone
mans cavalry in July, 1864, and
they were not afraid to take all we
had to eat or to wear at that time.
Then we had to refugee again in
November, 1864, and Wheeler's cav
airy got there ahead of the Yankees
and helped themselves. When we
got back from the last refugee spree,
just before Christmas, we had no
pork, and hardly anything else.
We captured one hog in the cane
breaks, that we butchered as soon
as we arrived. The old hog had
lodged the cavalry and lodged Sher-
mans foragers. Smatr old hog! But
my husband contrived to get in
touch with 1000 pounds of pork
before March IL, 1865, and he had
to swear that he had no more dur
ing a year, and the Confederate gov
ernment took one-tenth of our sup
ply, and we had more than fifty
colored people to feed, as well as
ourselves.
We had left all the provisions we
had when General Johnston aban-
doned his line of battle at Cassville,
Ga. in May, 1864, and retreated to-
wards Atlanta. We left fifteen of
the oldest colored people in charge
Of the home and plantation, and
carried off the remainder to Jones
county, four miles from Macon, Ca,
154 miles to travel, with wagons,
some cattle and the colored peoples
belongings.
This old Bacon tax paper is duly
signed up. Why the Bacon tax gath
ereE did not keep it in hand I don t
know, but certainly have the sign
ed tax receipt o. K. "W. H. Eel
ton, on oath, declares he had killed
1000 pounds of pork. He must pay
the tenth-100 pounds" The tax col
lector had a soul in him, and when
he saw that helpless family of whites
and blacks he only took sixty pounds
Of bacon from us.
r. T. Ross, of Macon, was the
tax assessor. Heaven bless his mem,
DRY! We would have been ION the
parish" at that time except that we
could hire wagons and mules to the
Confederate government, to feed the
gang, black and white. These teams
happened to be in Macon when
Stoneman came along, or we would
have been without that much inside
Of an hour. Here's the oath my

The Limitations of Boil WeeviI
Damage

The Limitations of Boil WeeviI
Damage
N. G. B., Greenville, N. c.,
writes: We wish to get ready
for the coming of the boil weevil
by encouraging diversified farm
ing and live stock. There is an
idea that the boil weevil will not
go above the 25th parallel, and
I would appreciate your opinion
in this matter. We wish all the
information we can secure so we
can use the best method we can
find in fighting the weevil.
There seems to be no doubt but
that the boil weevil eventually will
infest all parts of the country in
which cotton is grown. The chances
are that the damage along the line
which constitutes the northern linn
it of successful cotton production will
be much less than further south.
There will be years when the win
tiers are unusually mild, however.
when the weevil will establish itself
in this territory and do a good deal
of damage for a year or two. An I'M
usually severe winter following will
kill it out, as it were, and set it back
for the time being. This has been the
history of the infestation in certain
counties in Arkansas and Oklahoma
and there is every reason to believe
that we will have exactly the same
experience here in the eastern states.
