SCHOOL INCOMES
SHOW DECREASE
State School Fund Will Show
a Deficit in 1888 Even at
Full Tax Rate
FEDERAL LEVIES CAUSE

While most Delawareans must
realize that, for the next few
years at least, revenues for school
purposes from the State income
tax bill show falling off, the ex-
tent Of the decrease has not been
estimated heretofore. Even though
Delaware should return to the full
rate, instead of half rate for pay
ment of taxes on incomes, Gerald
Montaigne, assistant commissioner
Of the State Tax Department, by
very rough calculation estimates
that the receipts for the year 1928,
On incomes earned this year, will
not exceed 100000. This is ID
contrast to what would have been
receipts of S1,178,O77.6O for the
current year on 1881 incomes and
81 ,246, ,26002 in 1881 for 1880 in
comes, if the full rate had been
charged in these two years. The
decrease shown here for the COM
ing year over the present is the
equivalent of $276, ,O77.O6 and, for
the preceding year, the decrease il
the equivalent of $346, ,260.O2. For
this year and last year, of course,
with the rate One-half the normal
rate of payment the receipts were
much less than the figures given.
For the current year, on incomes
earned in 1881, the total receipts
were $589,O38.80 For the preced-
ing year the receipts were $685.
1851. Even with these figures,
both at half rate, the decrease this
year over the preceding year was
$34 ,096.21. Added to this decrease
due to falling off of incomes as a
result of business conditions, in the
year 1884 the State will have to
face another big and important
cause for decrease in revenue from
income taxes: United States taxes
are deductible before State income
taxes are levied, and in the year
1884 there will be a vast falling off
in State income taxes due to the
fact that the Federal budget bal
ancing taxes which have just start
ed, to run for year, will be de-
ductible from State income tax
payments. It is impossible, at this
time to estimate the extent of in
road which the Federal tax pay
ments will make in that year in
the State income tax payments
but that it will be a sizeabIe
amount is certain.

A oficeholders that their families and
friends be told that, in the event of
the reelection of Governor Buck, he
will abolish all the County offices
and all the employees will be
thrown out of employment This
propaganda is being spread
throughout the country despite the
fact that most of these offices are
created by the State Constitution
and cannot be disturbed by the
Governor. In Kent County the
voters are being told that the nom
ination of Governor Buck is to be
brought about by the expenditure
of large sums of money and that
his opponents are the simon-pure
whose only interest in the matter
is to protect "unpurchasable Re-
publicans who are tired of being
ruled by a bribed electorate" The
Democrats Of the County are be-
ing berated because they dare to
defend a man who has stood these
four years foursquare with all the
people. In Sussex County it is be-
ing told wherever it will take that
the Governor is responsible for the
failure to prosecute county Of
fetal who has misappropriated
money, when the person who start
ed the propaganda knows or should
know that the Governor of this
State has nothing to do with the
selection of those responsible for
the punishment of such illegal
acts.
Propaganda for Personal Gain
But why all this underhand and
despisable procedure Its purpose
might be to deceive the electorate
of our State while those RESPONSE
BILE for the dissemination are lay
ing the ground work to secure con-
troll of the States affairs for their
own personal gain. The reason for
the re-registration of all the cit
lZenS OF the state IS due to the
Governors desire to have a fair
expression of the electorate at the
coming election. 1t is a notorious
fact that numerous names were in
the registration books of persons
who have left the State, had pass
ed away, or never existed. The
bitterest foes Of the Governor are
those who most benefited by this
condition. The only hazard in this
connection that Republicans and
Democrats have to fear for the fu-
ture is the one that could be
brought about by the election of
Governor who would countenance
such acts.

SEE FAIR WHEAT

Smut in Kent, But Yield
is Promising
AN INCREASE IN BARLEY

Prospects for a fair crop Of
wheat in Kent county is the deci-
sion of F. W. Oldenburg. R. c.
Roos and R. w. LeukeI, of the Ex-
tension Service of the University
of Maryland, who have visited each
of the nine Eastern Shore coun-
ties of Maryland on a tour of in
spection. The experts, with j. D.
McVean, county agricultural agent,
examined the wheat fields from
Georgetown south inKent county
Md and reported the average
yield would range from IS to 18
bushels to the acre, with some
fields giving 25 and others as low
as ten bushels. Some smut was
located in the county and attempts
will be made to eradicate the di-
sease, McVean said. Prospects
loom for a good crop in northern
Cecil county where thirty fields
were inspected with j. 2. Miller,
county agent, from North East to
Rising Sun. Professor Oldenburg
estimated the average yield at %
bushels, with yields ranging from
Is to 40 bushels to the acre. The
smut is serious in some fields where
last falls seed had not been treat
ed or where smutty seed had been
used in planting. Smut, the visit
ing experts said this week, is not
the result of climatic conditions,
but is actually planted in the fields

WARNING ISSUED
ON FARM DANGERS
Perils of Harvesting Machin-
cry to Workers Are Shown
by Delaware Safety Council
SOME CAUSES SHOWN

Most farmers are by necessity
Jacks of all trades. This fact to-
gether with the long hours of ex-
posure, explains to a large degree
the number of fatal accidents, ap-
proximately 5000 chargeable to
American agriculture each year.
The Delaware Safety Council en-
phasizes that a large percentage Of
these fatalities occur during the
summer months when the hay,
wheat and corn crops are harvest
ed. Threshing, one of the most
dangerous of farm tasks, some
times continues until after dusk
when the ordinary dangers Of the
work are greatly increased by poor
light and exhausted men. A thresh-
ing machine consists of an engine
and a separator. When in use
these two machines stand a short
distance apart and are connected
by a heavy belt. Because of its
length the belt is never covered.
1t has been known to carry men
against the drive wheels. Thresh-
ing with no fire screen over the
smoke stack of a steam engine
may set fire to the straw and burn
the years crop The intake is the
most dangerous part of the separ-
ator. Bundles of grain are carried
into the cutting knives by slowly
moving belts or aprons. The
same mechanism may carry fork
into the machine and pieces Of
wood and steel fly through the air,
particularly from the straw outlet.
Loose clothing may catch in NOV
ing gears or aprons and bring a
man in contact with the sharp re-
volving knives. One of the crew
usually makes frequent tours Of
inspection over the top Of the ma
chine. Since there is always dust,
straw and grain lying on top, his
footing is insecure. Men have
slipped and fallen into their own
machines. The man who runs the
engine of the threshing outfit
should never leave his machine.
The impossibility Of foretelling cir
cumstances makes it essential that
the engineer be always On the job.
The dangers of operating an in
silage cutter are similar to those
involved in the operation Of the
threshing machine. The insilage
cutter is also driven by an engine
and has the same dangerous NOV
ing belt. The intake of the cutter
is also its danger point. The
knives are enclosed in a covered
hood into which a moving apron
empties the bundles of corn. The
operator stands by the machine
and feeds each bundle into the
knives His jacket or gloves are
often caught in the corn or apron
and forces his hands into the ma
chine. Unclogging the rollers with
the hands is extremely dangerous
and never a season goes by but
what hundreds of farmers are IA
tally injured not to mention the
hundreds of hands and arms lost
as a result of this unsafe practice.

ute is as follows:
To Garman folks we wish to say,
We are glad to have you here to-day;
You've weathered storms of wind and strife.
You've fought your battles well thru life
And few in number tho you be,
Oak-hill owes many thing to thee.
Your silvery hairs, and furrowed brows.
Be-speak of things you've paid to know,
Your eyes more dim, your step more slow,
Than they were sixty years ago
You've learned life's lessons well we see,
Oak-hill, owes many things to thee.
So Garman as we part to-day,
We hope we've brighter made your way,
You are our guests, we welcome you;
Where ere you go, what ere you do,
Let it be said where ere you be,
Oak-hill owes many things to thee.
