FARM TAXES

Figures made public by the de
parsfnent OF agriculture on increases
In farm land taxation give proof OF
the trend Of bureaucracy. A canvass
shows the average amount OF state
county and local taxes paid by farm
ers throughout the country In 1929
10 have been 70s cents per acre, COM
pared with si.s cents In 1914. This
ia an increase OF 126 per cent--some
increase what has the farmer re-
ceiyed for II?
To get down TO particulars. Colo
rado farmers paid In 1914 an average
Of 20 cents an acre. In 1922 il had
gone UP TO ss cents. Wyoming rose
from is cents TO 80 cents. despite the
growing returns from oil from state
lands. which under proper economy
ought to make Wyoming a ''taxless
state" New Mexico rose from ls
cents 10 SO cents; Montana from 7
10 is cents.
The figures do no; include federal
taxes, which have arisen even higher
than the local and state taexs in the
period given and for which there is

continent. the Pilgrims landed at
Plymouth, jamestown was settled.
our independence was won and the
great west was opened up, all In the
face OF official opposition and dis
courasement. II took the vision.
courage and enterprise OF the individ-
nal TO accomplish these results. In
spite OF this record our country Is
rnenaced today by a school OF poli-
ucians who would crush Individual
enterprise and Initiative with a per-
manent system o6 paternalism and
socialism.

AT THE BAUGH THEATRE


y y v y " v " =
There viii be a matinee for women
only and a night show for men only
at the Baugh Friday when the much
talked Of picture, wild Oats" viii be
shown. This picture handles indi-
cretions without gloves.
AZ last the screen has been given
real novelty. Those of you who
have become surfeited with the ordi-
nary romance will find in "The
Worlds A Stage" Saturday night. a
dramatic story of a film actress life
In Hollywood, written by no less an
authority OF that life than Elinor
Glyn. 1t has taken the gifted Elinor
Glyn. author of Three Weeks" and
one Day, to make drama of this
expression. "The Worlds A Stage"
gives us an insight into a screen ac-
tress' character. Here is Jo Bishop
Tor example. Thi star of a cheap
theatrical troupe with repertoire of
plays, she little dreamed
that when the company stranded in
little western town that she would
eventually find herself on the screen.
But famous director and his friend,
= wealthy miner. noticed her perform
anee as Juliet, and realizing that the
silent drama needed new faces, the
iirector offered her an engagement.
from this point the story builds with I
intense interest. The drama comes
talking across the life OF 10 Bishop.
She fell in love at first sight with a
-oung wastrel and married him. And
hough she continued to register the
arious emotions before the camera.
er Illusions were shattered. Her
was bigger drama than
he one she interpreted on the set of
he studio.

CRIMINALS MAKING
USE OF WAR GASES
SERIOUS MENACE SEEN FROM
TEAR, SNEEZING AND 9TH
Err DANGEROUS FUMES.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Disturb-
ed at the extent to which tear gas
and other products used in chemical
warfare are falling into private hands
war department officials are making
a thorough study of the problem with
a view to drafting legislation calcu-
lated to prevent their indiscriminate
manufacture and sale.
Tear gas and certain other products
are becoming more and more popular
as weapons for police, prison and
asylum officers in the apprehension
and control of criminals and maniacs
in fact criminals themselves are
learning to use these products effect
lively and it is feared that unless some
means of control is devised the new
weapons which have proven so val
liable to law officers may develop into
a boomerang.
1t is reported that the police de-
partments of 900 cities are now equipp-
ed with tear gas and apparatus for
its use.
Used by Bootleggers.
Reports received by the war depart
ment indicate that in one way or an
other criminals are not only learning
the use of tear gas, but also are pro-
viding themselves with masks for pro-
lection against it. An example in the
first instance is the case of bootleg
gers who had equipped their automo-
bile with a tank of tear gas, which
was released through the exhaust, rem
dering pursuit by motorcycle police
impossible.
In fact the practice of criminals in
providing themselves with masks for
protection against tear gas has caused
the police authorities OF some cities to
seriously consider the use of some
other gas that is capable of penetrat-
ing these masks. This would involve
the use of chemical products that are
not so harmless in their effects as tear
gas. Sneezing gas is very penetrating
and while not SO deadly as phOSgene
or mustard gas it has noticeable at
ter effect when taken in considerable
quantities.

PEANUTS BRINGING
HIGHER PRICES NOW
SURPRISE IN STORE FOR THE
GROWERS AT OPENING OF
DELIVERY SEASON.

Delivery season for members of the
Georgia Peanut Growers Co-Opera-
tive Association began Thursday, and
reports received by headquarters Of
fec of the new cooperative marketing
organization indicated that there were
heavy deliveries all over the state.
A surprise was in store tor the
growers who made deliveries in that
they received a larger initial advance
than they had been promised. At
meeting of the directors OF the peanut
association in July, before the peanut
market opened and when there were
practically no quotations available, II
an initial payment of 500 a ton.
was decided to advance the growers
Some of the directors urged high-
er figure at the time, but PRESIDENT
R. E. L. Spence and majority OF the
other directors held that conservation
was the best policy and the smaller
figure was agreed upon. "wednesday
night, however, President Spence Sc
cured the consent of members OF the
executive committee by long distance
telephone to increase the advance to
SIS a ton for No. l peanuts. SO, when
checks went out for advances on pea
nuts they were at the rate OF ~
ton instead Of 500 ton for No. Is:
Arrangements have been made with
the banks of this section to accept the
participation receipts issued with all
advances as collateral for loans. The
banks have agreed to loan as much
as Is per cent of the equity mem
Der has in his participation, receipts;
On $135 peanuts the members VIII
have an equity OF 500 a ton, which
would give a participation receipt
loan value of $45.
Banks, as we'll as supply merchants,
are cooperating with the ASSOCIATION
in the matter Of crop mortgages by
allowing peanuts against which they
hold liens to be delivered to the asso-
citation and for the association to pro-
tect the lien holder.

She passed another clad in striking

most a uniform, and in the mornings
white silk is the favorite wear. Some
of the skirts are the narrowest ever

their feet higher than nine inches
from the ground, SO short are these
new skirts.
For casino wear at night all wo-

1t is also noticeable that few women
are wearing bands on flower wreaths

But jewels are much worn. Women
as they take their place at the gam

one has finer bracelets than they
themselves display.
Wrists and arms are a-glitter with
diamonds, and pearl necklaces are
much worn. Six or eight bracelets on

finger are seen on all sides. Very long
