There is no factor entering into the many causes of the high cost of living than taxes. We do not mean local, county or state, although they have thdr weight, but the federal tax that is levied on manufacturing 'con­ cerns. Coupled with the taxes comes In­ crease* in raw materials, shorter Work ing hours; inefficiency of labor and transportation, the latter the greatest cause outside of the burdensome fed­ eral taxes beiiig levied against all the corporations, - It has ljeen a commonplay upon the part of state legislatures and con­ gress than whenever'more money web needed a new kind o f tax was devised and placed against corporate compan­ ies, until today We have more than a half dozen different' kinds of revenue being collected in this way. The' gxeat war called fpr addition, 1 funds tomeet an enormous debt. The iftsiest and quickest way was to con­ fiscate profits and then tax the corpor­ ate owner again, by~fhrrTnccme-iu*-- route, Each year much of this tax was carried as overhead expense and couldhave no part in lowering prices. * Higher productive costs, labor con-( litiona v>nd transporation was only ( lowering the'purchasing power of the, dollar. This naturally disturbed labor and we find the"1 country in a turmoil oyer the demand for still higher wa- jes, shorter'hours, and not means of increasing production until cadency1 is increased. ’ The. federal’tax being the heaviest the question arises when will these taxes, be lowered? (Congressional leaders say there jis no chance if we are to meet the government’s bonded debt o f $27,000,000,000 • Accepting this as .a statement of fact it meansthat the taxj.payiug Pub­ lic, directly and indirectly, must face the future with" some uncertainty. In certain iines,,notably farm products; there has been a lowering of prices, >Ut the farmer mustnieet Ms income tax in proportion to what it was when he received top priecs ten month?>gb,~ With the state'planning to adopt a state income tax and an increase in valuation on business property, farm lapda and homes to the 100 p£r cent msis, there seems to be a'grave prbb- em,before the public.

The oftener the better. In' some cities and town they meet every week, WO surely could meet once a month. If you get the habit, you’ll be glad that someone suggested it, for you will soon see the .benefit ' derived by mingling with, others, and will not Want to quit. THE JOHNSON AMENDMENT By a lack of exactly two votes the Johnson Amendment to the league o f nation* has gone done in defeat.

There was much disagreement as to the form of the Johnson Amendment Certain Senators rtfio favored the principle o f the Johnson proposition were dis­ inclined to vote for any amendment to the text Of the league.

A patriot who is asked' to produce at a loss, A man who works eight hours day twice a day. . A man who has every element of nature to combat, every day in the year. A man who is 6 biologist, economist and a lot more istsi Who lives more and asks than any other human being. Who1takes Unto himself for own sustenance and that of his fam­ ily, ihopfe of hi* products that other pi pie Will not utilize. Who i* caricatured on the stage in the daily pipers but who can come neater taking hold of any business and making it go than any Other American alive iu capticity. That’s what a farmer is.—Drover’s Telegram. _ ...... , - NOTICE TO HUNTERS.
