edge of the erroneous assessment;

which was not in fact then or since
improved, and the amount OF the

supposed improvements and with
out which improvements the land
itself would be of little or no value
and would therefore justify an as
sessment of only a small fractional
part of the taxes actually levied and
extended, and where such taxes
have become delinquent and the
land sold and bid in at a regular
tax sale by an actual purchaser or
bid in by the state for the want OF
such purchaser and the right OF the

sessment, the Minnesota Tax Com

shall be granted unless an applica-
ton therefor shall be duly approved

Commission within two years from
the date of such tax certificate or
state assignment certificate.
Section 3. Whenever a refund IS
granted under the provisions OF this
act the county auditor shall re-
instate such portion of the tax on
the land as the value of the land
without any improvements bears to
the full value of the said erroneous
assessment. Said reinstated tax
shall be placed upon the current
tax lists in the office OF the county
treasurer and if not paid prior TO
the first Monday in January OF the
following year, shall be subject TO
Judgment with the delinquent taxes

 Regardless of the age of the baby, the most popular self f-Selected foods, the author tells usfi were meats, po- tatoes, carrots, beetS, peas, apples, bananas, oranges and eggs.
 The writer says that the selections and quantities were not well chosen by the infants and that often they ate meat and fruit in excess of amounts consumed by adults. Their natural desire for milk rarely ex- ceeded in pint per day. They did not like spinach, nor were cereals selected in amounts fed the infants by most mothers. The weather seemed to govern their selection of foods. On hot, humid days they drank more orange juice = often eight to 16 ounces at 8 meal; then ate more fruits and vegetables and less meat in smaller quantities.
 Several solid foods were eaten at each meal, together with such H. quids as milk, orange juice and water. None of the infants ever gave any evidence of discomfort, or abdominal pain after eating, nor were they constipated," it was ex- plained. ,.
 These experiments have made it clear that even an infant of six months is able to choose for him. self 8 satisfactory diet from an as- sorted offering of suitable foods. Such 8 plan would be very diffi- cult to follow in the home. Wastage and expense would be too great and scientific supervision would be lacking. But through the experi- ment you have found an answer to one of your worries-lack of appe- tite in, children.
 Let them alone when they won't eat. Instinct will tell them what they need. We have always known that animals have this wisdom, but it remained for this experiment to prove that it is also true for in fants. For the development of every one of these babies who was allow ed to choose his food was perfectly normal and his health excellent.
 Two of the favorite foods of the infants were carrots and apples. Of course this scientist never com- bined foods in her scientific tests, but we mothers must and do, so my offering today is delicious, healthful combination of the favor ties.
 Scalloped Carrots and Apples
 Arrange sliced cooked carrots and sliced raw apples in a greased bak- ing dish. Season the carrots with salt and melted butter, and sprinkle a little sugar over each layer of apples.
