Sales Tax Receipts
Slightly Less Than '55

Another slight decline in weekly
tax collections was reported today by
State Treasurer Roger w. Tracy,
although the percentage of decline
was below the overall decline for the
fiscal year to date.
Weekly collections for the period
ending Sept %, 1856 amounted to
$3,S23, ,451, which was a drop of
$9S,029, or 249 per cent from the
$3,921 ,480 reported for the correspond
ing week year ago.
Grand total collections for the fiscal
year amount to S4S,S44, 1868, which
represents loss of 81, ,454, 1SS, or 2.S9
per cent, from receipts of $50, ,299, ,156
for the same period year ago,
which included two additional days.
The report disclosed tha at 19
counties-including Cuyahoga, Frank
lin, Mohoning, Stark and Summit
have accumulative collections to date
which exceed receipts for the same
period in the last fiscal year. In
addition, there were 81 other counties
where their respective weekly collec-
tons exceeded the same week a year
ago.

THIS Is TO REMIND you that
October to 13 is National Letter
Writing Week, and what wonderful
reason for sitting down to writing the
letter we've put off for so long.
Everybody likes to receive letters, but
it's difficult to find time to write
them.
On this matter of taking the time
to write, we were impressed this
week with a note carrying new
slant on the matter from a reader
This is the first time I have been
UNSELFISH enough to take the time
to express our appreciation" the
letter stated.
We had never thought about letter
writing from that standpoint. Yet it is
perfectly correct. Time is our most
valuable possession, and to take time
to write letter, is very often a
sacrifice. But like any unselfish act
it bears its fruits.

A RECENT NEWSPAPER ITEM
in which Coin Dealer George Creed
values 50-cent piece turned out by
the u. S. Mint with too little metal
at $50, 1000 has set some local coin
collectors thinking. Creed's skinny
50-cent piece is THINNER than a dime
because the mint's machine did not
feed in enough metal when the coin
was stamped. Somehow by accident
the freak half-dollar was placed in
circulation. If a thin half dollar is
worth $50, 900, a thin penny minted in
the same manner must be worth
81 900, the local collectors calculate.
Maynard Geiger has one of the freak
pennies and Bob Benroth has couple
of them, but they're not holding their
breath until someone offers them
81 900 each for their prizes.

Poultry Importation
Regulations Revised

TO HELP THE Montana poultry in
dustry obtain as nearly disease-free
Matching eggs, chicks and poults as
possible, the Montana Livestock SAM
tary Board has revised the poultry
importation regulation, according to
DR.. ]. w. Stafford, assistant state vet
erinarian.
The puIlorum-typhoid standards re-
garding the origin of Matching eggs,
chicks and poults have been raised
from ''pulIorum tested to ''pullorum-
typhoid clean" All Montana hatch
cries are under the latter classification,
so now all shippedin Matching eggs,
chicks and poults must be of equal
standards.
Shipments into Montana will be ac-
copied only from those hatcheries and
dealers who have obtained 1856 sea-
sonal permit from the Montana State
Veterinarian, Stafford said. The season
al permit will be issued only to those
out-of-state hatcheries and dealers who
are participating in the National POul-
try Improvement Plan, the National
Turkey Improvement Plan, or to those
who are under the supervision of the
disease-control authority Of their state.

Make Preparations
For Baby Chicks
By BOYD ELLIS

A FEW DAYS AGO I was talking with
a hatcheryman and he was worried
He didn't know what kind of chick
season to prepare for this year. How
many Matching eggs will he need?
There are other good flocks he can
Gull and blood test as supply flocks.
But will he need them?
All reports say that there will be
a good demand for chicks this spring,
but he just doesn't know if there will
be or not. So far he has very few chick
orders on his books. He is thinking that
there may not be enough demand for
chicks this spring to justify his operat-
ing the hatchery.
What can you do about this? Give
your hatcheryman a break. Sit down
right now and decide the kind of chicks
you want and how many. Then call
your hatcheryman and give him your
order. He'll appreciate it. And by or
dering in advance you will be sure
of getting good chicks when you want
them.
The next step in preparing for the
chicks is thorough check of the brood
er stove. Does it need any repairs?
be sure the themostat works correctly.
You may need a new one. You should
have at least two 3-foot chick feeders
for each 100 chicks. Water is impor-
tant You will need at least one 3-gallon
fount for each 100 chicks. It's a good
idea to use several smaller founts for
the first few days.
After the chicks learn to find the
water then the larger founts can be
used. A chick guard around the brood
er is good idea. Be sure you have one.
1t should be II inches high and may
be made of corrugated paper, hinged
1x12 boards or wire. 1t should be placed
about two feet from the edge of brood
er hover.
If you are sure the brooder house
and equipment is in good condition the
last minute rush of getting ready for
your chicks will be avoided. Some other
things to remember are that the litter
should be put on the floor and the
brooder started two or three days be
fore the chicks are to arrive Also, the
chicks will need some good feed. Ust
a commercially prepared starting masl
containing about 20 per cent protein.

FBl agents in three cities, faced
the holiday in Jail today in lieu
of $4,000 bail each.
Described by the Justice De-
partment as top functionaries in
the Communist Party, the seven

Federal grand jury in Boston re-
turned an indictment charging
them with conspiracy to violate
the Smith Act.
Four men and a woman were
seized in Boston. a man was ar
rested in Queens. N. Y. and an
other was taken into custody
in Chattanooga, Tenn. They are
accused in the indictment of
