HENRY FORD'S TAX Henry Ford's taxes of all kinds amount to over 380,000,000 a year. Half of this is for the federal income tax on the earnings of his organizations. He has his own legal department*with lawyers in charge who are experts in income tax complications. The income tax that Henry Ford pays 1 into the federal treasury would pay the "■salaries of all the following Gov- 1 ernment officials: The President, $75,000; ten Cabinet Officials, $12,000 , each; nine Supreme Court Judges, < $16,000, others $14,500 each; 96 Unit- : ed States Senators, $7,500 each; 435 , Congressmen, $7,500 each; all the sal- < aries paid out by the State Department, including the 500 Diplo- j matic and Consular officers scattered • all over the world; all the salaries ' paid to the officials of the Department of Justice, which include all the Federal Judges and United States District Attorneys, $6,000 to $8,500 each, as well as the United States " Marshals, scattered all over the Unit- ' ed States in every state and territory. ] After having paid the salaries of all , these high federal officials named, out of the amount of the income tax of Henry Ford and his organizations, 1 TJncle Sam would have quite a few 1 million dollars of Fyd money left for 1 other uses. j

AGRICULTURAL NEWS NOTES KEEN INTEREST SHOWN AT THOMPSON'S CORN VARIETY DEMONSTRATION— TO HOLD A, CORN SHOW SOON. At the invitation of W. S. Thomp- | son of Goshen, fourteen com growers met in the corn field on his farm to inspect eleven varieties of corn which I had been growing during the past | summer under like conditions- When , the farmers arrived the corn had been ! husked, weighed and piled, so that j the advantages and disadvantages of | these varieties could oe seen. The, yield from each variety represented one-twentieth of an acre, or 136 hills planted four feet each way. Each 1 row of 136 hills ran over a knoll and ( across a low piece of ground. This gives each variety two types of soil, ■ which might seem a disadvantage, ex- 1 cept for the fact that the conditions are as fair for one as it is for anothI Both advocates of yellow and white corn were present and each studied the weights to see if his pet variety was not ahead." The yields which are given below represent a rank which might be changed after the corn dries out and is shelled next spring. In order to arrive at this part of the work, Mr. Thompstm has selected one bushel of ears to keep over the winter and shell in the .spring. Each bushel of corn was carefully weighed at this October 16 meeting, and after it is shelled in March, it will be just as carefully weighed so that the actual amount of 'shelled corn can be obtained. This will furnish a percentage of Actual shelled corn which, when applied to the fall yield per acre, will show an accurate statement of - the real amount of corn raised per acre. It is on this weighing that the advocates of deep grain varieties are placing strength. This year's corn variety demonstration has brought out clearly the fact that some varieties of corn, even ■ though they may be wonderful for 1 other parts of the country, cannot be grown in Cape May County an advantage. At least until they are acclimated to our local conditions. An- i other thing brought out is that there ■ are very considerable, differences due ; to kinds of seed. Most men are will- i ing to Concede this point when it works put in favor of their own va- i riety. I There are a few, however, who i are so partial to their own choice of ' seed corn that they are reluctant to i change even when their variety showfc 1 to a disadvantage year after year in < carefully conducted demonstrations- i The highest yield in this demonstra- < tion was 35 bushels of shelled corn i per acre, while the lowest was 53 bu. j < of shelled corn per acre. The differ- I ence of 32 bus- per acre was no doubt ! i largely due to unacclimated corn be- iJ ing bfought in from Pennsylvania: 1 3 The difference, however, could not all j 1 be attributed to acclimation alone, for j ( another variety of corn, called the ! I Lancaster Couftty Sure Crop, was im- ft ported for the first time this year and this same demonstration it yielded r bushels of shelled corn per acre, i£ hence differences in^seed are shown ' r
when both are accustomed to our local conditions and also when they are not accxistomed to our soils and climate. J U*. following is a list of the vari- ) eties or strains of com given in terms of bushels of shelled corn per acre, it r being assumed that 72 lbs. of corn on jr the ear in the fall equals one bushel ^ of shelled com in the spring. "Poor Man's" (white)— R. Ewing, Cold Spring, 86-69 bushels per acre. Sussex County White— John Pondg er, Milton, Del-, 80.41 bushels per 0 acre. h | Johnson County White — W.

The Committee thought it advisable to hold a corn P and potato show as an educational feature and set aside funds to pay J premiums in six classes, as follows: ^ Yellow Dent, White Dent and White Cap com, also on red skin potatoes, white skin potatoes and sweet potatoes. The corn will be judged on the best ten ears and white potatoes and sweet potatoes will be judged on the ' best peck of market sized potatoes- It t is planned to have Herbert Cox, Soil , Specialist, from New Brunswick, do . the judging, and no names will be on the exhibits until after.the judging is done. In deciding upon the kind of prizes, the Executive Committee felt that Cape May County farmers should be encouraged to attend outside corn and potato shows and other agricultural meetings during Agriculture Week in January at Trenton, consequently thfey made the first premium hi each class a round trip ticket to Trenton during that week. This trip to Trenton should be an added attraction to the one of holding an up-to-date corn and potato show at our own annual meeting of the Board of Agri- . culture- It is planned to have a few first class speakers on the program 1 of the afternoon- as well as a few se- ' lections from McPherson's double mixed quartette of Cape May Court House. The place of meeting has not j yet been decided, but it will probably be in as near £he central part of the I County as possible. South Seaville has been mentioned as the possi- : ble place. • I It is now corn husking time. Why not enter into th<! spirit of the Corn . Show by saving out and exhibiting ten nice ears.
