Feb. 14. — (United: Press.) — Drastic changes are to be made in th e Lindley-Shake-Johnson l farm relief tax bill now in the hands of the agriculture committee of the Indiana house of representatives. 1 Limited tax features of the measj are, which would have compelled consideration of income from real estate in determining valuation for taxing purposes, are to be stricken from Jhe bill. This decision was reached follow- , ing a long conference of tax experts, economists and farm leaders of the legislature yesterday. 0 : Trapping Season In Indiana Is Closet Indianapolis, Ind.. Feb. 11. —The open season for lawfully taking furbear- ■ iug animals in Indiana ended Thursday, February 10, and from that date until November 10 of this year, it con i titutes a law •vielation to kill or poesess mink, muskrat, fox, raccoon, ikunk or opossum, except that animals may be kept for breeding purposes. However, to hold small wild life iu capitivity for propagation purposes, it in first necessary to take out a certificate with the department, the cost of which is $5 a year. NO animals may be taken in the closed season for any purpose and those held for propagation must have been taken in the open season. Under the fur-beaiiug animal law, says George N. Mannfeld, fish and game superintendent of the conservation department, the property owner may kill any protected fur-bearing animal when found damaging property but only' on his own premises. The law makes it palin that a possessor of freshly skinned hides has five days after tite close season begins in which to dispose of same. Possession after

that duties priuia facia evidence the fur was taken out of season. Persons destroying fur-animals out of season because they damage property, are required to report same to the conservation department, slating the fact of each killing, if the hide or fur is saved it must be sent to the department which is required to dispose of same and proceeds thus obtainedgo to the fish and game fund. — 0 Reforesting Project In Indiana Proposed For twenty years the argumepf has prevailed with more or less intensity that the state should purchase abandoned and neglected farms und forests in southern Indiana aud reforest them. In face of the argutm # it would be splendid business, Indiana since 1903 has only invested in a total of 4,600 acres, representing a cost of $39,600 or sk.so an tore. The Indiana Year Book of 1924 says that in 1923 there were 324,94 S acres of abandoned farm land and 821.252 of fallow land. If truth wa< known, contends Ralph Wilcox, acting state forester for the conservation department; at least half of this fallow land is no longer suitable for agriculture. The two areas combined make at least 600,000 acres of abandoned farm 1 land no longer yielding an income to farmers or owners who must pay taxes ' on it. Taking the position that every acre of abandoned land i.-. amiability to the state, aud that over It ng periods could be reclaimed by forest crops, the conservation commission is endc vor ing to show why this land should be planted to timber growing by either i state or individual. For thy state to take it over is nothing less then good business with ait eye to the future, and if the owner will classify it for re- ; forestation and plant it to trees he immediately benefits by l-:wer taxes and the knowledge he will leave a rich : legacy.

My ■ appetite was poor and I was troubled with frequent attacks of biliousness. My complexion was yellow, I was troubled with constipation and al! run down. I just had no pen at all, I tried different medicines and nothing did me any good. Several friends recommended Viuna to me, so 1 tried it. After a couple of days I saw that at last I had fourtd the medicine that I had been looking for. My appetite came back and the things I ate began to taste good to me. The bilious attacks stopped and my complexion began to clear up, so I kept right on, and now I feel fine. I can eat anything, my . constipation is gone, and for a man 63 years old, I am full of pep.”— William Beal, 117 N. High St., Hartford City, Ind.
