State Tax on One Sheep Equals
Levy on One Acre Of Farm Land

Sheep, in 1915, were taxed on a val
ne Of 1882 a head at 9 cents. During
the next three years, the tax increas-
ed to IL CENTS then to 10 cents and
to % cents with increases in value.
This was the peak tax. In 1919, the
valuation rose to $12.45, but the tax
was cut exactly in two, inasmuch as
the taxable value dropped to $4.15
under the classification law.
Despite a drop in value the next
year, the tax rose to 10 cents, but a
sharp drop in values in 1921 brought
the tax to II cents a head, and, in
1922, to 10 cents, the lowest since
1915. Values rose somewhat during
the next two years and the tax was
II cents each year. The raise to Il
cents last year followed an increase
in values. The number of sheep OF
the assessment rolls has remaineC
fairly constant.

STATE BOARD OF
EDUCATION FAVORS
5-MILL LEVY VOTE

Endorsement Of the proposed 5-mill
state school levy referendum has been
given by Montana's state board Of
education. Before adjourning its
quarterly session at the capitol at
midnight Monday, the board passed
the following resolution:
"In view of the need of equalizing
educational opportunities and promot-
ing the educational welfare of all
children Of the state, the state board
Of education endorses the proposed
referendum for the 5-mill levy for pub
lie schools"
The action followed an appeal by
Chancellor M. A. Brannon of the
Greater University CT Montana IL
which he directed attention to tho
vital connection between the publ;
schools and the university. He de
clared that without the proper founda
ton in the schools, the states edu
catiOnal system cannot be mad,
strong. The levy, he said, will meal
a great incentive to the economic wei
fare Of the state, resulting in lOnge
terms of school in districts wher
short terms now prevail.

1t costs just as much in taxes now
a-days to own a sheep as it does to
own an acre of farm or grazing land,
and it costs three times as much to
own a cows, says the Montana Rec
ord-Herald.
Figures of the state board Of equal
ization show that the tax per head
on sheep has increased from 9 cents
in 1915 to Is cents last year. The
tax per head on cattle, on the other
hand, has decreased from 81 cents to
46 cents during the period, while the
tax per acre on land, though the fluc-
tuatiOns have been more pronounced,
is but n cent higher than it was in
1915.
In 1915, land paid a tax Of IA cents
on an average and taxable value Of
$4.21. In 1917, on a valuation of
$4.63, the tax raised two cents. In
1919, with the advent Of the classifi-
cation law, the average valuation
jumped to $15.48 and the tax to Is
cents on a taxable valuation of $4.64
Though the average and taxable val.
ues since that time show a steady de,
crease, the tax per acre mounted tt
20 cents in 1920, to 81 in 1921, anC
then began to drop one cent at
time from 18 in 1922 to Is last year
In 1915, cattle were worth S26.61
head, the assessors figured, and the,
assessed a tax of 81 cents a head, al
. most seven times the tax on an acr
% land. Values increased somewha
during the next three years, despit
a larger number on the assessme1
rolls, and, in 1917, the tax reached il
peak with Sill on a valuation Z
$29.98. It dropped a few cents til
next year. In 1919, the average va.
ne jumped to $7O.61, but the taxab
value dropped to $3.50 and the ia
' to So cents a head. Since that tim
there has been a gradual decrease

seed QUALITY NOT
FACTOR In PROTEIN
CONTENT OF GRAIN
Rainfall, Soil Conditions, and
Variety Important, Says
w. o. WhitcOmb

Seed wheat Of high protein content
does not necessarily produce high pro-
TEN grain, says W. o. WhitcOmb, su-
perintendent Of the Montana Grain
Inspection laboratory at BOzeman.
Rainfall and soil conditions are the
important factors in the production
Of high protein wheat, says MI. Whit
comb, and the quality Of the seed has
no bearing on the protein content CT
the grain produced. Certain varieties
of wheat such as Marquis and Su-
preme produce the greatest amount
Of high quality protein and farmers
should grow these varieties if they
are interested in the production
premium grain.
Mr.. Whitcomb explains that high
protein wheat usually is produced IN
der limited moisture conditions. Grain
from irrigated land ordinarily has a
lower protein content than grain pre-
duced on dry land. However, seed
wheat produced under irrigation IS
just as desirable as seed produced on
dry land as the protein content of
the crop harvested depends upon the
conditions under which the. grain is
grown and not upon the quality Of the
seed.
The only significant difference be-
tween irrigated and dry land seed
wheat is that the former is likely to
have larger kernels and therefore a
bushel # such seed will not cover
as much ground as ? bushel Of the
smaller dry land seed. However, dry
land wheat, being smaller and having
less stored food material to support
the plant during its early stage Of
growth, may be discounted slightly
because of its size. This factor is
not Of very great significance since
tests at the grain laboratory have
shown that wheat weighing SO pounds
to the bushel is just as desirable for
seed purposes as heavier grain.
The important fact from the stand
point Of protein is that Marquis and
Supreme wheat can be depended upon
to produce a high percentage of high
quality wheat. The amount of pre-
tein in the wheat produced is not nee
essarily the determining factor
Durum wheat, commonly known a;
macaroni wheat, has a. high protein
content but the quality of the pro.
tein is such that it cans OF be USED
for making bread flour. A whea.
known as Kota Of the hard red sprine
wheat group, also has a high protein
content, but here again the protein
is Of inferior quality as compared t.
Marquis and Supreme and therefor.
such wheat does not bring the higl
premiums.

How TO LIFT PROPERLY.

Few people know how to lift a
heavy object properly. The few who
do rarely use their knowledge. Lift
ing should be done in such a way as
to use the muscles of the thighs, not
the back Or abdominal muscles, says
Hygenics. Only by using the leg
muscles can one avoid putting too
great a strain on the back and adj
domen, eve when these muscles are
well developed.
In lifting, bend the knees, not the
back, until the object to be lifted is
on a level with the hands. Their
straighten the knees, raising the body
and the heavy object at the sam,

II. HEINRICH RUDOLF HERTZ

In 1887, Heinrich Hertz, a Ger.
man physicist, conducted the exc
periments which resulted in scien-
fists accepting Maxwell's theory Of
electromagnetic waves as a fact,
and in engineers developing the
practical use Of these waves in
radio.
AS the story goes, Hertz was
experimenting with some appara-
tus for causing an electric spark.
Nearby he had a loop of wire, the
ends Of which were a hairs
breadth apart. He noticed that
every time there was a spark in
his apparatus, another spark would
jump across the gap in the loop
Of wire. HertZ's sparkling appn
ratus was the first radio transmit
ter, and the little loop Of wire was
the first radio receiver.
!. Hertz believed this result TO be
due to electromagnetic waves sent
out by vibrating electric current
in the sparkling apparatus and
picked up by the little coil Of wire.
It is not difficult to understand
that a vibrating current might
send out waves when one considers
analogies. When you drop a board
into a pond Of water, it splashes
up and down and. sends out waves.
When you pound a drum, the
tightly = stretched drumhead We
brates and sends out sound waves
into the air.
