CORPORATION SUES
FOR TAX REFUNDS

Alleging that the state board of
equalization wrongfully refused to al
low reductions for fire insurance and
other costs which they declare are
proper reduction items, the Anaconda
Copper Mining company yesterday
filed suit in the district court of Lewis
and Clark county in Helena against
0. H. JunOd, as state treasurer, ask
ing judgment against the state in the
sum of $3,449, which represents the
amount of license tax paid under pro-
test on the net proceeds of the Butte
Hill mine for 1923.
Payment of taxes under vigorous
protest was also made last Friday by
the Montana Power company and the
Great Falls Power company on the
companies transmission lines in Lewis
and Clark county. The Montana
Power Co. paid taxes of $11,488.-
10, Of which amount $1O,266.87 is pro-
tested. The Great Falls Power COM
pany paid Sal, ,240.57, of which amount
5,384.93 is protested.
In its story of the power company's
,, protest, the Montana Record-Herald,
in this mornings issue, says:
The Montana Power company
whose transmission lines extend
J through q counties in Montana, has
t paid its taxes under protest as tC
S valuations made for this year by tho
e state board of equalization, accord
. ing to remittances received by the
e county treasufers, the remittancei
having attached letters setting fortl
: the protest of the power company.

IS said, taxes on the physical valuation

- company, and objects to the differenc

1928 last week. Prices Of Gamers,
cutters and bologna bulls closed at
strong to 25c higher prices with other
killing classes and stockers and feed
ers showing upturns of 25c or more.
Market toppers for the week were
granted yearlings of a good grade
which averaged 915 and sold at $500,
but offerings Of a choice or prime
barde are quoted on up to around
S11.5O. Bulk of fat steers and year

grades selling from $45O@9.00, bulk
$5.5O@7.5O.
Butcher cows and heifers sold from
S3.256.7.O0 or above with the bulk
$3.5O@$5.5O. Gamers and cutters
sold within a price spread of $1,000
1926, only old "shells" at the close

for the most part.
Stockers and feeders sold during
the week from $2.5O@7.25 with a

at the finish between this price and
$3.50.
Hog receipts, this week totalea
around $4,000, compared with 98,-
$50 last week and 1O6,O55 two weeks
ago. At the weeks opening session
record receipts for the year forced
prices down about 40c, bulk selling
around $6.1O the first two days Of
the week. Decreasing receipts and
broader shipping demand on Wednes-
day caused a rebound of prices and all
of the loss was regained. At the

when the bolt was screwed

and what was more important, a
gasket under the head to resist
the Oil leakage. If the bolt could
have been driven home instead Of
being screwed in place it would
have been better to coat it with

The above changes permit the use

use only what the maker of your par

very important because heavy oils

The usual complaint about q

too tight, or too free, or the pin
ion may be in too far or out too

Every axle is provided with some

both, SO that improper mesh can
be corrected.

In years past the rear axle was
one of the most troublesome units
OF the car, in many cases due TO
the inadequate size of the unit COM
pared with the power and torque
transmitted to it from the engine.
Happily the days are past when
rear axle trouble is common, but
even today much of the repair cost
OF an axle can be reduced by a lit
tie care. The average owner imag-
ines that all he has to do is TO fill
the differential housing to its
proper level with oil twice a year
or so. l hardly believe there is a
housing that will not lose some of
Its lubricant in two months and in
some of the cheaper makes of cars
1t is necessary to add lubricant to
the housing every three or four
weeks. The rear axle contains the
differential, axle drive shafts and
with the axle is the
drive pinion assembly. A train
OF gears, no matter where located, ;.

by the usual adjustment or by the
insertion Of washers.
When excessive wear takes place
between the pinion and ring gear the
car has tendency to buck at low
speeds-the drive shaft jerking back
and forth and alternately. taking up
the play and releasing it. The axle
shafts which are usually splined on
their inner ends may become worn
and bucking which may result from
this wear. Rear axle work involving
an adjustment should not be attempt
ed by the average owner, because
precision work is necessary and one
not familiar with the work is likely
to make the adjustment worse then
before.
The owner will do well If he will
take out the differential housing

required amount of oil is present IL
not, fill to livel with a gear oil or a

semi-fluid oil. The owner should buy
his own oil and not depend on the
cheap grades often dispensed at
garage and filling stations. Some of
these are little short Of worthless,
for they thin down to the consistency
of water after a little use and have
little gear lubricating qualities.
In cold weather one may use a
lighter grade OF axle oil than in sum-
mer, because the thicker the oil the
less the thinning due to heat. This
does not apply to all oils but to the
better kind.
