To Guard Against Tax Deficits The MU introduced by Senator l»a vlu authorising County Tax Board; to deduct the sum of the preceding year's reductions from the ratable value of a taxing district contains an equity proposition that Is eminent!) fair. The afftef"r values the proper!, adds up his book and returns the total to the county board. Later the County Board or the State Board reduces some of the valuations and does this after the local budget has been apportioned. This creates a deficit in the taxing district. It Is only fair »h*' some means should be provided for raising money to meet deficit The Leavitt plan wIU at least provide for the money paid by the taxing district for spbool and county taxes. The MU makes practically the warne provision for the correct!oo^of College Boys Mske Good. (VVlUlam H.

TALKS ON ADVERTISING I.-Ih Which We Gel Acquainted By Henry Herbert Huff COPYRIGHT. >000. BY AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION “Hello, Mr. Bnsinees Man! Anil how is trade?”

“Improving.’'

“Tm glad to hear it. Oh, we’ll have things moving nicely pretty soon. Everybody’s optimistic down oor way. Got nearly in hour yet in town—want to catch that 4:2© out of here. If you’re not busy, sit down a few minutes end let’s talk things over.

UaA order houses bothering any ?”

“Yea; they’re cutting quite a hole in pur taade. Though t that dull spell would fix them, but it didn’t here in our town. Never believed they were getting so much business till I was shown the pile of goods from them that arrived on thia morning’s freight Borne of our best people buying there too. Really I cannot understand why any one should send away and wait several weeks “Yea; there are several, and it does beat all how those premiums take. Looks as though one was getting something for nothing, but he pays for all ofjt. 'I can sell the whole assortment for half their list price and premiums. Buy them separate and got what you want Each of these clubs takes from $100 to $300

worth of bnsinees frorn our town every yeas.

“And then there’s Near City—only twelve miles away, and the fare is 60 cents. Many of our people go-there to.boy clothing, millinery and the like. Often they pay more than in their home town. We merchants had been charging -up the bulk of our left trade to the mail order bouses, but found upon investigation that a large part is going to Near City instead. With our trade leaking out in every conceivable way it seems up to us to take what’s left*
