S. CAROLINA TO PUT
TAX ON EVERY JOB
EVERY ONE, FROM OFFICE
BOY TO PRESIDENT, IN
GUIDED IN BILL.

The South Carolina senate has pass
ed a bill levying an occupational tax
on almost every firm and individual
in the state. The measure also levies
tax on gross receipts of all corpora
tions and persons receiving more than
$500 a year from any source.
The measure passed by the senate
is regarded as the most inclusive tax
bill ever considered by state legls-
lature. From the colored laborer in
the field to the owner of thousand
acres, from the office boy to the pres
ident, none is missed.
The tax provided in the bill is IN
addition to the regular income tax and
will yield about $5,000,000 a year.
The bill provides that every firm,
corporation, or person in the state
who is working for gain must pay to
the state treasurer a license fee OF 81
a wear. In addition, individuals or
firms having gross receipts in excess
of $500 must pay from one-tenth of
one per cent to one-half of one per
cent of the total exceeding that figure.
Gasoline dealers and federal en-
ploves are exempted, while persons
selling farm products are not requir-
ed to pay a tax on such products.

Georgia Asparagus Is
Said to Be the Best
Fine Quality of Grass" Is Grown at
Dawson for Market.

Growers at Dawson are receiving
satisfactory prices for their aspara-
gus Some shipments have brought as
much as $40 per crate.
From various tests made during the
last few months it has been found that
Georgia asparagus is superior to that
grown in any other section of the
United States, and as canned prod
uct packed in this state is OF
superior quality, according to c. A.
Chatham, manager of the Continent
tai Packing Corporation at Macon.
Realizing the demand for this
product and taking into consideration
that 1,239,839 cases were packed last
year, an increase of 200 per cent
over 1921, the figure seems exceeding
ly bright for the packing of this prod
uct, especially when it is remember
ed that IS per cent of the canned as
paragus comes from California" said
Mr.. Cheatham.
Georgia asparagus is superior in
flavor and texture as we'll as canning
qualities, and seems to be considered
better than that grown in other states.
The packing of asparagus in Georgia
means an increase in acreage, but at
no time will the market be flooded"

Dutch Eel Boats to Go
After PSI Years Vigil
Spent Centuries in Shadow of Tower
Of London as Result of Decree.

After 257 years Of ceaseless vigil in
carrying out the eccentric provisions
of royal decree Of King Charles Ii,
two musty barnac1ed Dutch eel boats
are about to slip away from the shad-
ows of the Tower of London and re-
turn to their home in Rotterdam.
Long before the great fire OF 1000
there was a 1usty trade in cells with
the seafaring Hollanders. The Eng
lish market was the cream of their
trade. But there had always been dit
fculty in finding a berth for the little
vessels with their squlrming cargoes.
The Dutchmen were frequently fore
ed to moor out in the middle OF the
river by greedy rivals.
Then came the fire. The DutChmen
forgot their berthing troubles in hero
&c efforts to save life and property
along the river front.
King Charles II was grateful. He
issued a royal decree setting aside tor
Dutch use a small space along the
river trent, near London bridge. The
catch in the grant was provision
that if for even the space OF one sec
ond the frontage involved be minus
the presence of one or more OF the
Dutch eelers the rights should be-
come void.
During the PSI years since the king
set his seal to this remarkable docu-
ment the Dutchmen have been faith
full to their obligation. Progress has
robbed the little sailing ships of their
value. Hence the ancient holders OF
the kings grant are recalled. In few
days they will slip under London
bridge and away.
London is no happy to lose them.
They were picturesque reminders OF
two centuries ago.

USE OF CIGARETTES
JUMPS FOURF0LD
PIPE SMOKING, CHEWING AND
SNUFFING REDUCED, AC-
CORDING TO REPORT.

More than four times as much to-
bacco was made up into cigarettes in
the United States in the calendar year
1921 as in 1922, according to figures
from the recently published report OF
the commissioner OF internal revenue,
The percapita contribution TO the
federal treasury in internal revenue
taxes from the sale of cigarettes in
1921 was more than nine times that
Of 1912, the report shows.
Another feature OF the report is
that while the apparent consumption
or cigars was little more in 1921 than
nine years previous, the 1921 figures
show that there was considerably less
tobacco used for pipe smoking, chew
ing and snuffing than in 1912. In fact
since 1917, the peak year for tobacco
snuff and cigars, there has been a
gradual decline in favor of cigarettes
The total consumption of tobacco in
all forms in 1912, as indicated in taxes
paid. was 47,357,134 pounds; in 1921
it was 733,73L981 pounds.
Figures for Years.
Figures for the two years show that
in 1912 tobacco manufactured into
cigars totaled 148,690,65O pounds;
1921, 156759,474 pounds; cigarettes,
1912, 47,117,111 pounds; 1921, 1o1.-
145,528 pounds. Tobacco and snuff
1912, 350,549,373 pounds; 1921, 1885,
826978 pounds.
Divided per capita, according to
population, the taxes paid into the
Golfers of the internal revenue depart
ment were: Cigars, 1912, $.233; 1921
S.4l3. Cigarettes, 1912, $.147; 1921
$1.375. Tobacco, 1912. $3.50; 1921
$2.478. Snuff, 1912, $.O25; 1921, 1904
A considerable part of the increase
per capita is due to increased tax or
tobacco. as is shown in the receipts
of the department from such sources
