plete the present session in March, so
that they may return home to their

to follow, it may be the middle of
May, or later, before the statesmen
are enabled to say adieu to one an

probability of being called back in

A TRAGIC LESSON IN
SAFETY
: 4. f. j. !. T. + 4. 4. !. T. f. + i. 4

1t is difficult to figure out the
strange mental twists which may
have led motorists into fatal accidents.
Analysis Of the cold, unbiased facts
however, pretty generally point to the
conclusion that their lives are the
price they pay for carelessness.
A case in point is that of a motor
vehicle operator who, one time, just
beat a train at a grade crossing by
such a slim margin that spectators ex-
perienced cold chills running up and
down their spines, but the motor We
hicle operator poo-phooed the close
cali with wave of the hand and a
broad grin.
But the next time the result was
different. He didn't win in the race
with the train.
In his pocket the coroner found a
newspaper which was opened at the
page bearing the current release of
the bi-weekly articles issued by the
Ohio Department of Highways, under
Director o. w. Merrell, in the inter
est Of highway safety. Apparently
the article had been read, but certain
ly it had failed to make an impression.
Why? Yes, it it difficult to figure out
the strange mental twists of motor
lists.
However, it isn't hard to determine
that many drivers like this one in the
state today are headed for trouble as
sure as automobiles can't run by
These kinds of drivers
cannot turn their backs on safety and
still expect to enjoy its blessings.

To Examine Increase

Thousands of Visitors to Discuss Ways
OF Boosting Income at Farmers
Week

Greater returns from the farm
poultry flock will be sought by thou
sands Of farmers when they attend
the poultry discussions at Farmers
Week, College of Agriculture, Janu-
ary 30 to February 3.
Ways of increasing the income
from the flock with the smallest
possible outlay will be emphaized by
poultry specialists at the statewide
institute during the week.
Among the topics on the program
of exceptional interest to poultrymen
and farm flock owners are: High
lights in the poultry business in 1882
improving egg production through
better breeding methods, feeding and
management of layers in batteries
the best breed of chickens, canning
chickens for market and home con-
sumption, growing chicks with less
mortality, why chick rations succeed
or fail, range VS.. confinement fol
chicks and pullets, and poultry feed
ing.

laws for another two years. These
provide for:
Continuance of the state relief COM
mission.
Extension Of the time limit for the
issuance of relief bonds under the
utility tax act.
Diversion of county and municipal
funds derived from gasoline and motor
vehicle licenses to relief purposes.
Use of relief funds by boards of
education to provide for needy school
children.
Extension Of authorization to issue
county and municipal bonds for relief
activities.
With the states expected revenue
for general purposes for the next two
years declining to $46,000,000 and esti
mated requirements, including relief
funds, totaling S58,0o0,o00, it will be
necessary to raise s12,000,000 from
new sources.
Increasing demands of weak school
districts will require at least S10,000,-
600 more for the biennium. Re-enact-
ment Of the cigaret tax, which yielded
$3.50, 600 for school purposes in 1882,
will be necessary to provide part Of
the educational fund.
Further diversion Of highway funds,
sales taxes, nuisance taxes and a state
income tax have been discussed by
legislators studying methods of pro-
viding additional revenues made nec-
essary by extraordinary conditions due
to the depression.
The sales tax already has been pro-
posed in two bills. One, introduced in
the senate by Senator Carl d. Shep-
pard, of Akron, imposes a one per-
cent tax on sales, services and wages.
1t applies to merchants, utilities, con-
sumers and the professions. The
amount it might raise is not estimated
The other sponsored by Representa-
tive Oakley Spaght levies a two per
cent tax on sales to the ultimate con-
sumner, exempting farm product. 1t is
estimated this bill would produce $780,,
100000.
Trimming departmental budgets to
effect all possible economies, Cover
nor White has made it possible for the
Legislature to hold appropriations to
tho Lowest total in x-1ay,c Two x-poge
ago the assembly appropriated $685.,
100000 for the 1892 biennium and
the governors retrenchment policy re-
duced expenditures to $56,000,000. His
insistence that no additional taxes be
imposed for ordinary expenses of gov
ernment this year will limit the rails
ing Of additional revenue to the actual
totals required for emergency needs.
