NO RECIPROCATION Home industries deserve fostering and generous treatment from their beneficiaries; especially is this so 1 when the industry pays $6,000.00 to the county each year for taxes and in addition disperses over $75, 000.00 in wages. Both of these financial items are of benefit to the entire county. But does the county appreciate and reciprocate? It does not. The above figures are the approximate amount of taxes and wage money dispensed by the Sandusky Portland Cement Company in Kosciusko county. In return, Kosciusko county (outside of Syracuse) uses barely ten per cent. ’ as much Medusa cement as it does of other brands. And it isn’t qual- i ity of the cement that causes it. If it were Goshen and Ligonier would . not consider it as their leading brand. We would be glad to hear from our county contemporaries on ] this subject. PASSING OF THE PICTURESQUE That Picturesque passage, “The * Old Channel/’ between our two lakes threatens soon to become an j old memory. Since the opening of , the channel back of Pickwick Park,’ which greatly lessens the distance s to most points on the lake, the older ' waterway has been little used and ( it is now so choked with weeds as to be unnavigable to most launches, ; In the course of a very few years it will be reclaimed by the lakej veg- * etaiion and our prettiest ride by water will have vanished. The ( new channel is very convenient ( when a quick trip is desired but it < cannot compare in beauty to the < old and we, with a great many others, hate to see jt pass out. of ( existence, but apparently its pas- ( sing is inevitable. ] The Government report issued Sy the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce for the four months end- ’ ed April 30, 19)4, shows that the * Baltimore and Ohio railroad hand- 1 led 11,228,213 tons of bituminous , coal, an increase of 36,327 tons 1 compared with the same period of s ' 1913. ‘ ] It will take a remonstrance con- ' ■ taining eighty per cent, of the prop- £ erty owners to stop the paving t proposition now being considered.

It is believed that there will not be anywhere near that much opposition; at least, let us hope not. The bund tiger is going to be a much-pestered animal in Syracuse. In fact, it is exsected that his species will soon become extinct in this locality. Tamarack W. M. Self and wife were on our streets Thursday. 0. Snavely and family spent Saturday evening with M.
