Lack Of Protein

The lack Of protein causes animals
bo shed their hair late in the spring.
and causes them to fatten slowly dur.

feeding Of straw likewise causes this

Harvesting

Harvest sweet potatoes when
mature but before killing frost.
A test of maturity may be made
by breaking a potato in two
pieces. If mature, there will be
little sap, and The broken surface
will turn white and appear dry
after being exposed to sun a few
minutes. 1t immature the sap
will be more plentiful, and the
surface of the potato will appear
green or black spotted.
Clip vines. using a method that
will not bruise potatoes.
Harvest potatoes with large
turn plo~ or standard potato
plow. Plow deep in order to
avoid cutting potatoes, as cut po-
tatocs Can not be marketed.

TUBERCULOSIS WORK

1t is said that three blind men once
set out to determine the physical ma
ture of an elephant. One Of them,
who Chappenen to get where he could
reach the trunk Of the beast, report
ed later that elephants were like
snakes. The second man, who got near
the midriff of the elephant, reported
it to be like a huge wall. The third,
who got his arms around a leg,
claimed elephants to be like tree
trunks.
How like the elephant in the fable
is tuberculosis. The relief of want,
nursing, milk lunches, Modern Health

Of tuberculosis work to the exclusion
of all the other forms Of anti-tuber-
culosis work that those in charge of
the campaign in the county are con-

men could not avoid.

ment the farmer asks for relief in
some practical and sane manner, the
cry goes up from these fellows, Rad
.cals,' 'Bolshevi!ss,' 'Agriculturists,
'Blocs' and SO on. They never men,
ton the paid Lobbyist Bloc that the
big interests keep in Lansing during
the legislative sessions to kill off any
legislation they don't like. If cor
porate and financial interests are sin
cerc in their expressed willingness to
aid the farmer so that he can buy
machinery, automobiles, fertilizers,
lumrs, engines, tractors and other
manufactured products, they will join
in an effort to relieve the tax burden
upon real estate, for this is one of the
reasons for the complete breakdown
of agriculture. As it is now, the
thousands upon thousands of people
in the state who pay no taxes have
the power by ballot to confiscate the
homes and farms of the state, the
very rock upon which our COVER :.
ment rests. Any person who has an
income and will oppose the 7o--ment
of a nominal tav to the state IS not
a good citizen. If every person in the
state were paying just little direct
tax the tremendous bond issues in
our state and cor 1ties would not be
put over with such regularity.
Should the people of Michigan en-
dorse the Income Tax resolution and
thus amend the Constitution so that
an income tax may be enacted, the
form of the law will rest entirely
with the legislature. Then every net
income in the state may be taxed
from a frarction of a mill up to but
not exceeding four per rcent.
at is very important that we keep
up our state institutions. Our pris-
ons and the homes for the unfortu-
mates are badly in need Of extensions.
We should like to go on at reason
able rate with our road program. We
should maintain the very highest
standards Of education possible in
all our schools. But there is some
thing that is more important than
any of these and that is the stability
of the homes of our people. Asphalt
roads and granite buildings are a
mockery when built at the sacrifice
of the home. Contented and happy
homes are the greatest asset of any
state. Without these all else is a
sham and farce. We have taxed the
home owners of Michigan until dis
content and dissatisfaction are ram
pant. If no other source of revenue
can be found through an income tax
then our budget from the state right
down to the township must be cut at
least fifty percent.
"If an honest effort were made in
this state to place all the intangible
wealth on the tax roll. the result
would be startling. Is it not worth
the try? / repeat again that any
person in the state who is unwilling
to stand his or her share of the bur-
den is unworthy to be called citi-
zen."
