BILL IMPERILED|
BY PALM|SANO|
Fights to Remove
Business Tax

An attempt to kill the 1899 Dis
trict revenue bill, because of pres
sure against the business privilege
tax from Baltimore business men,
is being made by Representative
Vincent L. Palmisano CD of
Maryland, chairman of the House
District Committee, it was learned
today.
FIGHT ON TAX
Mr.. Palmisano, who has been
opposed to the gross receipts tax
ever since its inception, is said
to be attempting to influence
House District leaders to oppose
the business tax, and, if necessary,
the entire measure.
The tax on business was placed
in the measure by the Senate after
the House had turned down an
income tax provision written into
the bill by the House District AT
fairs fiscal subcommittee after
several months of study.
SEEKS CONFERENCE
Mr.. Palmisano earlier this week
announced he would not accept
the business tax without a fight"
and declared he would ask the
House early next week to send the
bill to conference.
Under ordinary House procedure,
Mr.. Palmisano would be chairman
of the House conferees and Repre-
sentatives Jack Nichols CD of
Oklahoma, chairman of the House
fiscal group, and Everett M. DIRK
sen R) of Illinois, will be the
other confereeS.

WATCH THE NOTING OF
YOUR CHICKENS

Although the mo1ting period at
the end of the laying year is q
natural resting period when pro-
duction ceses and new feathers
are being grown, experienced
poultrymen know that it does not
pay TO skimp on the feed during
the mott. Tt is poor practice
to cutfeed during this period,
for while no eggs are being laid,
the feed is needed FOR the pro-
duction Of new feathers and to
build up body weight that has
been lost prior to this timeo
In order to furnish protein that
is needed to make these new feath-
ers, it is good practice to keep
a good laying mash inhoppers be-
fore the hens SO they may eat It
as they wish, and in addition,
in order to aid in producing flesh
all the grain should be fed that
the birds Will eat. They need
both the grain and the mash.
