WAR TAX SCHEDULE
Little Rock, Nov. 20.—Unless
immediate attention is given to
it, many persons subject to the
payment of the new war tax,
will be penalized 50 per cent of
the taxes due under the act ef
fective Nov. 1. The payments
by bankers, brokers, pawn-bro
kers, commission merchants,
proprietors of theaters and
circuse>, and tobacco dealers
and manufacturers.
The schedule includes the fol
lowing special taxes now being
collected all over Arkansas:
Bankers, for each 1,000 of
capital, surplus and undivided
profits employed, $1.
Brokers, who have not paid as
bankers, $30; pawn-brokers, $50;
commercial brokers $20; custom
house brokers $10; commission
merchants who have not paid as
jcommex'dal brokers, $20.
Proprietors of theaters, mov
ing picture shows, museums and
concert halls, seating capacity
not over 250, $25; seating capac
ity over 250 and not exceeding
50(), $50; seating capacity of
500 and not exceeding 800, $75;
seating capacity over 800 $100.
Proprietors of circuses, $100;
proprietors or agents of other
exhibitions or shows for money,
$10.
Proprietors of bowling alleys
and billiard rooms, for each al
ley or table, $5.
Dealers in tobaqco, snuff, ci
gars, and cigarettes $4.80.
As the effect became effective
as to the above schedule on Nov.
1, persons subject to the tax will
not be required to pay for the
full year, but from Nov. 1 to
June 30, 1915, or two thirds of
the amount imposed for the full
year.
Treasurer Has Little To Do.
Special to
Little Rock, Nov. 20.—About
as good an example of the sim
ple life as is to be found in Ark
ansas may be seen any day at
the ofiice of the state treasurer.
If there is a dull season at any
time in this department of state,
that time has now arrived. The
daily receipts of this department
from all sources, now averages
about$25 daily, and the disburse
ments from the general revenue
fund are indeed very light for
there is nothing from which to
pay warrants drawn on that
fund. There is considerable
cash in the Confederate pension,
state capitol and other funds,
and small payments are made
from them daily, but those who
hold general revenue warrants
are not so fortunate.

states Dr. J. L. Greene, superin
tendent of the state hospital,
“but his mind has never de
veloped, and he is just the
same as a child of eight years of
age. By a French discovery it is
possible to test the backward
mind, and he shows the same
'development as a boy of eight
years. He is no more capable
I of reasoning than a boy of that
age, and should not be held re
sponsible for his crime any
more than a child under 12 years
which are spared by the law”,
but he should be incarcerated
where he will do the public no
harm.”
Protects Inland Compresses.
The Interstate Commerce
Commission following the com
plaint of the Independent
cotton compresses has ordered
the cotton carrying roads to stop
making allowances to shippers
who compress cotton at the
point of export.
“Stop all durn Ki-o-tee howling,
Chawr some sand and git some
grit;
Don’t sit in the clumps a growlin’
Jump the roost and boost a bit.”

Feeding Silage To Horses
Farmers who have silos should
: remember that silage is not en
! tirely safe feed for horses and
! mules. The danger lies in over
feeding—feeding moldy, spoiled,
i frozen or excessively sour si
llage. When propertly fed it
makes a very satisfactory addi
tion to the ration of growing I
colts, brood mares and horses:
that are idle or doing light work, j
UUl CUULlUIi lilUdl UC CAUVi.'iCU
by the feeder. Feeding moldy
silage has been followed by fa
tal results in many instances.
Instances are known where the
feeding of moldy silage was due
to the neglect of hired labor,
and it is best where silage is
fed to allow no one but a trust
worthy man to do the feeding.
Frozen or excessively sour or
too much silage will sometimes
cause colic. Good silage will
sometimes cause colic in horses
that are worked hard.
Not over one-half of the rough
age ration for a horse should
consist of silage, and ten or
twelve pounds per day is enough
at any time.
Epidemic At Hickory Ridge.
Little Rock, Nov. 20.—State
Veterinarian R. F. Gow lias
been called from Hot Springs,
where he was in charge of an ex
hibit from the University of
Arkansas, to East Arkansas to
determine the cause of an epi
demic which is killing many cat
tle in the vicinity of Hickory
Ridge, and do something to
save the cattle remaining in that
section. Love Banks of Mem
phis has appealed to the Depart
ment of Agriculture for assist

His message states that the cat
tle suddenly become ill and die
without symptoms of any mala

hoof and mouth disease.
Our Hard Tmes.
The following clipped from
the Mer Rogue Democrat, is in
our opinion, a pretty good pic
ture of the cause of our cry of
hard times:
“Hard times!” Yes, these are
hard times. We throw away ash
and buy hogs. We grow cheap
cotton and buy expensive meat
and bread, and feedstuff. We
raise weeds and buy vegetables.
We catch fish with a four dollar
rod. We build schools and send
our children away to be educated.
And last, but not least, we send
our boys out with a forty dol
lar gun and dog to hunt ten cent
game. Yes, these are hard times
—but whose fault is it?
“Don’t try to lay all the blame
on the European war, the trusts
jor the president.”

Why grin and

pain ?
“ I have used your Liniment and can
Bay it ia fine, I have used it for sore
throat, strained shoulder, and it acted
like a charm."—Allen Dunn, Route t.
Box 88, fine \ alley, Miss.
“ 1 am a painter and paperlianger by
trade, consequently up and down lad
ders. About two years ago my left knee
became lame and sore. It. pained me at
nights at times till I could not rest, and
I was contemplating giving up my trade
on account of it when 1 chanced to think
of Sloan’s Liniment. 1 had never tried
it before, and I am glad to state that
less than one 25c. bottle fixed me up
apparently as good as ever.”—Charles C,
