URGE CLOSE SCRUTINY 1 OF LOCAL TAX LEVIES WITH APPEAL IF HIGH (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 22. Close scrutiny of the tax levies fixed by local taxing officers with a view to an appeal to the state tax board if the levies are considered excessive, is suggested in a letter sent to members

of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' Associations. It is pointed out in the

letter that petitions for a review of

the levies by the state board must be filed not later than Monday, Sept.

26th. , By economic administration the bud

gets in many instances may be reduced

it is suggested by John G. Brown,

president of the federation. The letter sent out follows:

"We are calling your attention to a

mairer mat mignt oe or vnai concern to the taxpayers of your county. We urge that the officers of our local units give this matter immediate attention

so as to reduce our taxes to the real needs of taxing units. "Tax levies are being fixed by all local taxing officers and in many instances the budgets may contain amounts in excess of what government economically administered warrants. Review Provided. "The last legislature provided for a review of these levies by the state board of tax commissioners on petition of 10 or more taxpayers, other than those who pay poll tax only. The stateboard can in no instance increase the levies so no harm can result in their leviewing the proposed levies, and as a precautionary measure we would recommend that all levies be scrutinized verv rlnsfllv hv vmir nrpnnlratinn

and where such levips are thought to be excessive I would recommend the filing of a petition with the county auditor, promptly, and in no event later

iiiaii .lionuny, oppu zo, fo inn unnecessary items may be considered and probably eliminated by the tax commission, thereby reducing the levies to the proper amount. "In case the petitions are filed the hearings, under the law. will be held in the county, wherein the taxing unit is located, making such objections." Officers of the local units of the federation have expressed a willingness to co-operate in this movement for the reduction of taxes Mr. Brown says.

PANAMA CANAL TRADE ESTABLISHES RECORD

(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22. Despite tfce world-wide trade depression which held during the fiscal year 1921, a new high record was established for American tonnage passing through the Panama canal, according to official reports received here. In a total of 2,832 ships traversing the waterway 1,212 were American, exclusive of government owned and chartered vessels. The nearest competitor of the United States was Great Britain, whose flag appeared on 970 ships carrying 3.722,000 tons, against 5,370,000 tons freighted under American colors.

est state of productivity by proper restriction now is as foolish as picking the fruit, before it is ripe. And the thing is especially worth doing because the hunting in this'country can

never be monopolized by a wealthy few, but most always remain a source

of health, pleasure and food for all

the people. The great and growing areas which are included in national and state parks and forests reserves insure this. v ' The Plan Proposed. , The plan now being urged is the creation of game sanctuaries in these forest reserves, where hunting will be prohibited, predetory animals destroyed and game propagated. From these sanctuaries game will naturally overflow the surrounding country, making of the forest reserve in which it is

situated a well stocked public shooting ground. In addition to this, game propagated in the sanctuaries could be shipped to all parts of the state.

Several bills have been introduced in the House and Senate, providing for such sanctuaries. They all provide that the state legislature must concur in the setting aside of sanctuary areas, since the game on these areas belongs to the state. So there is ' no transgression of states' rights in this provision. It may seem that this measure would benefit chiefly the West, where most of the forest' reserves are, but as a matter of fact, including the forest

lands in the East acquired by the government under the act of 1911, there

are now forest reserves in all except

a few of the North Central states. New

Hampshire, Pennsylvania. Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas and Florida now all have national areas in them. Thus a string of game sanctuaries could be established all up and down the Atlantic coast. In the country surrounding them would be found the very best

Two glimpses of Secretary Hughes taken a few days ago on the links at Greystone, his summer home. . These intimate glimpses of Charles E. Hughes, secretary of state, are said to be amonp the first ones taken of him in golf qttire. They were taken a few days ago at his summer home, Greystone, which overlooks Rock Creek Park, Washington.

of hunting, and the hunting for the; whole state would be greatly improved. Every hunter in the United States would profit by these sanctuaries. This protective measure would cost little.- A proclamation of the Secretary of Agriculture setting aside certain lands for the purpose, and concurrence of the state legislature, would

be the only procedures necessary, while a few wardens on each sanctuary ew" bhufejerreserve aercy

would constitute the only permanent

expense of the system.1 Birds That are Dying Out. Not onlywould this protective system greatly enrich the supply of all kinds of game, but it is tlie only thing that will save valuable species in many sections of the country. What one

sees everywhere in this country is a few of the more adaptable species of game holding their own at considerably less than a normal abundance, while other varieties steadily decrease. The state of Maryland, near the capital, whejre thousands of Washington sportsmen iiunt every fall, is typical of many of the more settled states. Maryland has fairly good game laws, with

generous open seasons, and it has greatly improved its. laws and system of game propagation in the past few years. It cannot afford an expensive warden system like that of New York State, for example. There the game wardens are an armed and uniformed force. In Maryland, as in most states, they are mostly farmers who are paid nothing and do little. Evenso, the game law is fairly well obeyed, and the commoner species of game hold their own. Besides the excellent wild fowl shooting of the Chesapeake region, which brings a really considerable item of food into the state every fall, there are still a good many quail, rabbits and squirrels. Sportsmen get good

shooting within 15 or 20 miles of j Washington, and many quail are killed

close to the District of Columbia line.; But many parts of the state, especially the large wooded areas along the Potomac, formerly supported large numbers of wild 'turkeys and ruffed grouse. Any good hunter could get his Thanksgiving turkey in the woods a quarter of a century ago, while the grouse, locally called pheasant, were so abundant that amny hunters paid no attention to the humble quail. The story of-these birds has been

one of slow decrease to tha verge of extermination. Now there are just a

few bands of wild turkeys, in the larger wooded areas, while the ruffed grouse is an occasional and surprising sight. T.his decrease ha3 not been wholly due to Ehooting. The cutting down of the woods, together with forest fires, must have had much to do with it. But there remain many areas of forest large enough to support grouse and not a few where wild turkeys would thrive if they once got a start. Even deer, which have, been extinct in much of the state for half a century, could be restored in many places. This was proved when a few deer were turned loose near Mt. Vernon. IS miles from Washington, and multiplied at an

astonishing rate without protection. A proper system of game sanctuaries would give the American sportsman a shot at some of the noble game that his grandfather hunted.

A Permanent Game Supply . By FREDERIC J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 19. This fall season when live or six million Americans- will s-houlder their guns and go hunting, when the many thousands will make money as guides and hosts to sportsmen, and many millions who do not go afield will encounter the wild things on the dinner plate, is being used by sportsmen's organizations, outdoor publications and other interested parties to push a campaign for a permanent system of game protection by game sanctuaries. The situation in this country is that wild fowl and other migratory game birds have been increasing greatly in the past few years as the result of a federal law giving them protection

1 throughout their journeys up and down

the continent, but the protection of our other game is by no means adequate. It is true that many states have improved their game laws, but others are hopelessly lax. Some species of game are increasing in some places, but on the whole, game other

jthan migratory birds is barely holding

us own, wnue some vaiuaDie special are threatened with extermination. Meanwhile the army of hunters grows every year. This decreased game supply is sheer waste. The country could support perhaps three or- four times as much game as it does. That would mean just three or four times as much food and sport as we now get from our wild lands. Not to bring them to the high-

It's easy to pack the human intestines with indigestible food that contains no real nutriment. The presence of this indigestible food in the alimentary tract poisons the blood-stream and produces autointoxication. It is what you digest that gives you strength, not what you eat.

hredded Wheat

is all food. It is 100 per cent whole wheat, containing all the elements that are needed for building and nourishing the hu--man body, prepared in a digestible form. Shredded Wheat contains more real body-building nutriment than meat or eggs or potatoes, and costs much less. Two of these crisp little loaves of baked whole wheat with milk make a complete, nourishing meal. Delicious with sliced bananas, raisins, prunes, peaches or other fruits.
