XWhaleOf A Difference! onlv a definite revolt on the part of the motoring public iSp the trend toward higher gasoline taxes. ""rhe record of past years Is Illuminating. The tax was introduced In Oregon In 1919. with a rate of one cent a II n New Mexico established the two cent tax in 1920, and •mSs seven states had a three cent rate. Arkan.sas intro- ""LiSthe four cent levy the following year and In 1926 (?ickv and South Carolina raised the ante to five cents. SUm to 1929 three state joined to establish the present peak »; of sU cents. Now rumblings are being heard of tax "* ". eight or ten cents or more, to be levied In the future. ?iMve percentage of the legislatures meeting this year are dXs consideration to Increases. No other tax has ever Increased so fast, and no other Mmmodlty with the possible exception of a few luxuries, ^SSiu cigarettes, has ever had so great a tax levied against It And high rates are not the end If the motorist's grlev- mT In various states his money has been used for sea M^ schooLs and government buildings, waterways, general JrKiduction and even oyster conservation. All of the.se pur- S^may be laudable, but they certainly should not be paid ^ut of money spent by citizens for gasoline. No relief will ever come from our legislators of their own voUtlon They are thoroughly Impressed with the idea that Si motorist will stand for almost anything. It Is up to the ¦ubllc to paraphrase a well-known advertisement, to show Selr officials what a whale of a d(|»Terence Just a few cents sake. The Star-Spangled Banner—Official Congress hesitated a long time before adopting the Star- ¦Mngled Banner as the official national anthem of the ryted States. But the measure was finally sent to the President in the closing days of the recent session. Now that Me anthem is official It is hoped that more people will be aUe to memorize the words and sing it through. Congress Uitened to manv objections against adopting the song as a i Mtlonal anthem. But as the words and tune were recog- nlKd everywhere as the unofficial national anthem of the people, the objection to official action faded out. "The Star-spangled Banner' depicts a dramatic event in American histcrv, when Francis Scott Key was-Inspired to write his iiteat national song. Key followed the British to their vessels after the capture of the city of Washington, (war of 112> for the purpose of trying to secure the release of Doctor Eeanes, an influential and well-known physician of Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Key, a resident of Washing¬ ton, witnessed the attack on Fort Henry, and the spirit ol tbst scene lives In our official National Anthem. Transportation and Television With speed by automobile approaching the 300-mile-per hour mark, it may seem to the majority of us that such fast travel would soon solve many problems In business and In other affairs of life. But will we really need to get to another place so often when television becomes more practical. To both see and hear one with whom business or other dis¬ cussion is desirable leaves less use of being In his physical presence. It is dlftlcult to keep abreast of the times in such aftsirs as music, are. motion pictures, styles, philosophy and education; but it is exceedingly difficult to realize what is lolng on now. or what will go on tomorrow, in the field of tficovery and invention Wliat Are You?

Under .sanitaiy condltioaa, with • larger number of pigs In the Utter, 180U to 2000 pounds could be reach¬ ed at SIX months of age where now litters weigh only 100 poiuids when seven n.ontr.s old. Fewer brood sows would be necessary and they could be handled with less equipment. More pounds of salable pork would be produced from the feed consumed because of tiie healthy growing con¬ dition of the pigs. Finally more pro¬ fit would be realized as a result of these methods. "The McLean county sjrstem o( swiae sanitation is employed In rais¬ ing pigs free from worms and necro¬ tic infection," says Mr. Coleman. "It was devised by the United States De¬ partment of Agriculture and first de¬ monstrated under practical farm conditions in McLean County. Illin¬ ois, in 1919." In carrying to completion a practi¬ cal svstem of sanitation, the follow¬ ing reciuirements should be put Into practice: Provide a sanitary farrow¬ ing pen containing clean bedding. Clean the sows thoroughly, HaVl the sows and pigs to a pasture not used for 1-,q?s for at least two years. It is preferable that this pasture b^ a field cultivated since last used for hogs. Provide a clean pasture where 1 the pigs are to be kept until at least four months of age. Plow all per¬ manent hog lots once a vear and seed down to such crops as rye, rapt, or soybeans.

The tax was introduced In Oregon In 1919. with a rate of one cent a II n New Mexico established the two cent tax in 1920, and •mSs seven states had a three cent rate. Arkan.sas intro- ""LiSthe four cent levy the following year and In 1926 (?ickv and South Carolina raised the ante to five cents. SUm to 1929 three state joined to establish the present peak »; of sU cents. Now rumblings are being heard of tax "* ". eight or ten cents or more, to be levied In the future. ?iMve percentage of the legislatures meeting this year are dXs consideration to Increases. No other tax has ever Increased so fast, and no other Mmmodlty with the possible exception of a few luxuries, ^SSiu cigarettes, has ever had so great a tax levied against It And high rates are not the end If the motorist's grlev- mT In various states his money has been used for sea M^ schooLs and government buildings, waterways, general JrKiduction and even oyster conservation. All of the.se pur- S^may be laudable, but they certainly should not be paid ^ut of money spent by citizens for gasoline. No relief will ever come from our legislators of their own voUtlon They are thoroughly Impressed with the idea that Si motorist will stand for almost anything. It Is up to the ¦ubllc to paraphrase a well-known advertisement, to show Selr officials what a whale of a d(|»Terence Just a few cents sake. The Star-Spangled Banner—Official Congress hesitated a long time before adopting the Star- ¦Mngled Banner as the official national anthem of the ryted States. But the measure was finally sent to the President in the closing days of the recent session. Now that Me anthem is official It is hoped that more people will be aUe to memorize the words and sing it through. Congress Uitened to manv objections against adopting the song as a i Mtlonal anthem. But as the words and tune were recog- nlKd everywhere as the unofficial national anthem of the people, the objection to official action faded out. "The Star-spangled Banner' depicts a dramatic event in American histcrv, when Francis Scott Key was-Inspired to write his iiteat national song. Key followed the British to their vessels after the capture of the city of Washington, (war of 112> for the purpose of trying to secure the release of Doctor Eeanes, an influential and well-known physician of Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Key, a resident of Washing¬ ton, witnessed the attack on Fort Henry, and the spirit ol tbst scene lives In our official National Anthem. Transportation and Television With speed by automobile approaching the 300-mile-per hour mark, it may seem to the majority of us that such fast travel would soon solve many problems In business and In other affairs of life. But will we really need to get to another place so often when television becomes more practical. To both see and hear one with whom business or other dis¬ cussion is desirable leaves less use of being In his physical presence. It is dlftlcult to keep abreast of the times in such aftsirs as music, are. motion pictures, styles, philosophy and education; but it is exceedingly difficult to realize what is lolng on now. or what will go on tomorrow, in the field of tficovery and invention Wliat Are You?

Under .sanitaiy condltioaa, with • larger number of pigs In the Utter, 180U to 2000 pounds could be reach¬ ed at SIX months of age where now litters weigh only 100 poiuids when seven n.ontr.s old. Fewer brood sows would be necessary and they could be handled with less equipment. More pounds of salable pork would be produced from the feed consumed because of tiie healthy growing con¬ dition of the pigs. Finally more pro¬ fit would be realized as a result of these methods. "The McLean county sjrstem o( swiae sanitation is employed In rais¬ ing pigs free from worms and necro¬ tic infection," says Mr. Coleman. "It was devised by the United States De¬ partment of Agriculture and first de¬ monstrated under practical farm conditions in McLean County. Illin¬ ois, in 1919." In carrying to completion a practi¬ cal svstem of sanitation, the follow¬ ing reciuirements should be put Into practice: Provide a sanitary farrow¬ ing pen containing clean bedding. Clean the sows thoroughly, HaVl the sows and pigs to a pasture not used for 1-,q?s for at least two years. It is preferable that this pasture b^ a field cultivated since last used for hogs. Provide a clean pasture where 1 the pigs are to be kept until at least four months of age. Plow all per¬ manent hog lots once a vear and seed down to such crops as rye, rapt, or soybeans.
