Please do not ask it. Provisions off Law Relating to Taxation. “The owner of property on the first day of March of any year shall be liable for the taxes of that year. The purchaser on the first day of March shall be considered the owner on that day.” Purchasers ot PERSONAL PROPERTY as well as Real Estate should remember that “TAXES FOLLOW PROPERTY when the taxes thereon remain unpaid.” “COUNTY ORDERS in favor of persons owing delinquent taxes can not be paid without settlement of taxes.” “It is the duty of the TAX PAYER to state definitely on what property he desires to pay taxes, in whose name assessed, and in what township or‘town it was assessed. THE TREASURER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE for the penalties and charges resulting from taxpayer’s omission to so state. The Tax Duplicate for any year is made with reference to property on the first day of March of that year and remains unchanged for the year as to the showing of property, and in whose name assessed and taxed. Transfers after the first day of March of any year will never appear upon the Duplicate of that year's taxes. Those who pay taxes of property in trust, and whose taxes are complicated, such as undivided estates, etc., should pay early enough to avoid the rush of the last days, as it requires time to hiake the divisions and separate receipts. ROAD RECEIPTS MUST BE PRESENTED IN PAYMENT OF FIRST INSTALLMENT. k The Annual Sale of Delinquent Lands and Lots will take place on the SECOND MONDAY OF FEBRUARY, 1910. JESSE D. ALLMAN, Treasurer of Jasper County, Indiana

HINT FOR FARMERS

The Economy of Paint.

The average farmer does not appear to realize what a tremendous saving in annual renewals can be accomplished by keeping his buildings, machinery, fences, tools, etc., in perfect condition with a coat or two of paint at regular intervals, if be would only stop and consider that by painting he can prolong the life of all of his farm necessities and that this means less yearly expense and larger net profits a revolutionary movement along these lines would soon set in. Paint does three important things for the farmer who uses it; It Improves the appearance of the building?. giving the whole farm a “prosperous look.” it enables the farmer to get the largest amount of work out of his machinery. Implements, etc., for the longest space of time and for the smallest average ■wear and tear per year, it decreases the farmer’s net annual outlay for expenses, as it distributes the cost of renewals over a much longer period of time than if the machinery is allowed to go on year after year without any protection until it is entirely worn out.—S. 8., Chittenden, Jr., in American Agriculturist

Treatment For Lump Jaw. This disease is due to a fungus which Is usually taken into the animal’s system in feed consumed, writes Dr. David Roberts in the American Cultivator. Lump jaw may affect the glands of the throat or the bones of the head. It is not advisable to keep an animal thus afflicted lingering in a herd. On the other hand, ft is advisable to either treat such an animal or kill it, as such animals invite diseases into the herd and then spread same throughout the entire herd, owing to the faet that they are so reduced in vitality that they have no resisting power. A remarkably large per cent of such cases can be successfully treated if taken In time by opening up the enlargement nnd

washing it out with a strong antiseptic solution, like five of carbolic acid in water and putting the animal on a tonic. In this way the afflicted animal is not only saved, but the entire herd is protected against disease.

Poultry Notes.

Carelessness and success in poultry raising do not combine. Utility in the farm fowl is more to be considered than fancy points. Skimmilk is a fine stimulant to laying and sboujd be fed every day. Turkeys and guinea fowls do much to free the farm of noxious Much of the refuse from the family table can be used to good advantage in the hen pen. Much of the waste material about the farm can be profitably utilized and turned to money in the shape of chickens and eggs. Charcoal is one of the best inexpensive preventives for poultry diseases. It may be obtained commercially or is usually present in wood ashes.—Farm and Ranch.

Ths Hen In Winter.

Clover meal in mash, cabbage and boiled potatoes serve well as a green feed for winter. Green feeds are the natural sources of the hen’s most important elements for egg production. When the ground is covered with snow the egg yield will stop unless some substitute is made for grass. Green cut clover or clover meal is very convenient to mix with the mash. Use about one-third of the bulk of mash as clover. The soft heads of cabbage should be saved in the fall and placed in the cellar for the poultry during the winter. Occasionally boil potatoes or parings with the table scraps. This la an economical way of using up such things and saving grain.—New England Homestead.

Pig Eating by Sows.

Constipation and fever are common causes of pig eating by sows, says the Country Gentleman. Sometimes a change of feed will help, the iinimal e?m»thlng more succulent

than she receives.' Feed laxative food for a week or two before farrowing; also a day or two before give the sow some salt meat daily, a little at a time. Salt fish and even fresh meat have been used with success by some breeders. It has been advised to give four ounces of sulphate of magnesia dissolved in hot water and mixed with swill and one to two drams of chloral hydrate.

Horses In Winter.

If the horses go into winter quarters in good condition they will winter very well on good timothy hay alone, or a cheaper ration can be made by using bright straw and corn fodder for roughage, giving all they will eat and adding enough of a mixture of onequarter corn, one-quarter oats and one-half wheat bran by weight to keep them from falling off in weight. If it is desirable to make them gain during the winter, the above grain ration may be used in larger quantity and in addition to good mixed clover and timothy hay.—Country Gentleman.

Malt Sprouts For Milk Cows.

Malt sprouts are quite rich in protein. containing about the same percentage as the so called Buffalo gluten meal, but less starchy matter and fat. They contain on the average about 11 per cent of woody fiber and partake of the properties of both coarse fodder and grain. They are useful in moderate quantities for balancing up a ration deficient in protein and have a good reputation as a milk feed. They should be thoroughly soaked before feeding.—Country Gentleman.

PERT PARAGRAPHS. Money is said to be the root of all evil, and many people are quite philanthropic enough to sit up nights to devise schemes to root the evil out. The winter of discontent that the coal and ice men suffer untold pangs from is sweet, warm and pleasant for the rest of us. It takes a lot of courage to secure a rich wife, but it is by no means certain that it doesn’t take greater to annex one that isn’t. In this world of contrarieties there is no use in trying to have the, other fellow get your point of view, for if he were to it wouldn’t be yours. It is a touching sight to see an old acquaintance, and in some pathetic case it is your pocketbook that is hardest hit. The fellow who gets the worst of it, being wise, swallows fils discomfiture, denies its existence and proceeds to claim the victor’s laurels through the pages of the magazines. SHARKS6ETGQVERNOR’SSI3O Eberhart Falls In With Two Card Experts on a Train. Fort Wayne, Ind., Dec. 10. —Captain Stol of the Pennsylvania railroad police has word that Governor A. O. Eberhart of Minnesota had been made the victim of card sharps on the Manhattan Limited, losing 1130. The local police wired after the train left here asking whether the two sharks, who are here, should be arrested. A reply was received stating that nothing could be done.
