From all sections of the State come
reports daily that farmers are or
ganizing into protective associations
formed for the purpose Of financing
the wheat grower over the period OF
depressed grain values Careful con-
sideration is being given the matter
of storage. as farmers are wont to
weigh the possibilities OF this course
with elaboration. as private bins
sometimes leak and rats and musk
offer dangerous possibilities. Mean
while. thrashing Is progressing in
practically all counties and bumper
yields continued to be reported.

off their hats to the Indiana Village
for Epileptics at Newcastle for the
banner wheat yield so far this year.
To this institution go the laurels for
a yield Of fortyeight bushels per acre
on a twenty-one-acre field. Also, the

Western States Jump
Up Automobile Taxes
S1O,5OOOOO Additional Revenue for
Texas Through New Laws.

CHICAGO.-Mi!lions of dollars
will be forthcoming from the pockets
OF motorists in a number of middle
western states during this coming
wear as the result OF laws passed by
legislatures of the winter and spring.
Texas appears to have passed the
most radical increase. 1t is estimated
that $10,500,000 additional will come
from the pockets OF motorists and
wholesalers Of gasoline. Two taxing
measures dealing with automobiles
were passed in Texas. One places a
one cent tax on each gallon Of gaso-
+line sold by wholesale dealers, while
the other revises the present system
OF motor license fees and increases
them approximately 100 per cent. 1t
is estimated that the gasoline tax will
net the state $2,500,000 and the Ii
cense fee increase will bring S8,O00,
900.
100000 More for Indiana.
Indiana now has a law imposing a
tax of two cents a gallon on gasoline,
estimated to yield $3,000,000 yearly
This will be devoted to good road
purposes. In addition the Legislature
passed a law, effective next January
/, increasing the license tax on auto
mobiles.
In Oklahoma a tax of one cent a
gallon on gasoline was included i'll a
bill passed by the legislature, This is
expected to yield 100000 annually.
In Oklahoma City an ordinance re-
Gently passed puts the charge for a
city license at 50 cents and is expect
ed to yield $4,000 to the city.
Tax legislation in Kentucky, passed
in 1922, which became effective this
year, is expected to net 100000 to
| the state.
Higher Tax on Trucks.
In Ohio 81 bills directly affecting
automobile owners were introduced in
/ the legislature, but the only one that
was passed increased the tax on mo-
( tor trucks.
/ Only one state showed a decrease.
/ This was in Minnesota, where the
method of taxing was changed. 1t was
/ estimated that while the average car
/ tax for last year was $17 the average
/ for this year will be $16.44. However,
! the legislature passed a bill to submit
a constitutional amendment to the vot-
/ ers at the next regular election au-
/ thorizing the legislature to fix a tax
on gasoline.
Iowa to Regulate Bus Lines.
/ In both Michigan and Iowa a tax
of cents a gallon on gasoline was
passed by the legislature, but was We
toed by the governors.
/ In Iowa law was passed placing
motor bus and truck transportation
lines under the supervision of the
state railroad commission while a ton
mile tax was imposed on these lines
to draw from them a contribution to
the state highway maintenance fund.
A law was also passed requiring that
automobile registration fees be based
upon current list prices.

BACK SEAT FOR OLD TUT,
AMERICAN SCIENTISTS SAY
Plan Digging Party in South Ameri-
ca. Whose Secrets Beats Egypt's.

Old King Tut will turn over in his
grave at this piece OF news.
South America has historical ruins
that contain a lot more surprises than
those OF Egypt. A group OF scientists
connected with the Carnegie Institute,
at Washington D. c., are preparing
for ten-year research and excava-
ton tour OF Central America, to begin
next January. Arrangements already
have been made with the Mexican
government for work to begin in Yu-
catan.
The ancient people called Mayas,
about who little is known, built mar
velous temples and shrines through
out Central America II is the purpose
OF the Americans to dig into these
buildings in the hope of finding traces
of civilization that fourished when
Europe was peopled with savages and
evidence of scientific knowledge that
the present era has not yet attained.
