Corporations in that .tate nav
on the average twice as mach as

1t is not to be wondered at that
there is u movement Of capital out

THE inheritance tax in Wiscun-

amounts to blood-letting.

a widow the tax exceeds the av-
erage of all other states in the
union by 126 per cent.
ION inheritance by widows and

takes from three to three and one
half times as much as does New
Jersey. Rhode Island, Maine, Vir-

twice as much as Pennsylvania.

Under the leadership of LaFol-

of which this country is suffering
has increased.
IF he and his followers are al

APOLOGY?

A Kansas editor got gay and made
caustic criticism of the practice of
'bobbing hair. The poor editor soon
found his patronage gone and him
self scorned by the m of the
town. In hunger and despair the
editor tried to regain the patronage
and good will of the women by
apologize, and this is what he
said:
I'VE like bobbed hair. Bodied
hair is sanitary. Bodied hair looks
cute. Bodied hair makes business
good for the BARRIERS. and we love
the BARRIERS. Bodied hair makes
old women look older, gives them
that good, girlish. grandmother ap-
pearance. Biscuits with hair in
them are not as numerous as they
were before the bobbed hair craze.
If there are any, they are shorter
and easier to get u Therefore,
we apologize for what we have said
in the past about bobbed hair"

that it died there in the rush of the

somewhat through the discovery Of
omission Of several items in the en-

have deprived Secretary of Agricul-

America Loses Cedar Trade
For German Pencil Industry

NUREMBERG, Germany, June s.
East Africa has replaced the United
States as the source of supply of
cedar for the Nuremberg pencil in
dustry. This German industry, which
centers here, has fully recovered
from the after effects OF the war,
and in trade circles it is reported
that the manufacturers have enough
foreign orders on hand to keep the
plants in full operation many months.
Both the cedar and the graphite
for pencils are imported, the main
graphite supply being found in 81
IBERIA. Previous to 1914 the cedar
was imported principally from Amer
lea and the West Indies. but the
war upset the old channel or trade
and new fields in East Africa have
been developed.
