DESPITE CRUSADES

Tima in tJMf'ii 1 1 j . j . r 1 1 - f 1 1 1 ii.m i 11 i u. huiuiuvi.il " v. . . -
ville continue at the usual rate.
Eternal vivielance, and not occasional crusades, may be depend
ed upon'to reduce the scope of the evil of reckless driving, out of
which grow a large majority of automobile killings. But until juries
can be gotten to consider soberly the fundamental cause of such
tragedies, and persuaded to deal accordingly with those who are
guilty of causing death by violence ,the killings will continue despite
periodic crusades or constant vigilance. '
Selfishness, cock-sureness, deliberate disregardof the rights of
others eliminated, the problem of the safety of streets and country
roads would be solved.
Careful drivers rarely cause accidets. But the most careful
driver, ike the pedestrian, may be killed at any street corner or on
any country road by the driver who disregards speed regulations
.." because he is confident that he can avoid accidents, and who alway
is willing to swear in court that he was proceeding slowly and cfcu
;. tiously at the time his machine struck another machine amidships
and pitched it over a fence, or took a pedectnun unawares and
' dragged him half a block.
Crusades are not making the streets safe. To a good job, every
day, by the police as seekers for violators of the law, a good job every
time by jurors when persons who have cause death are tried must
be added before it will be greatly less dangerous to use public thor.
oughfares than it is to be a soldier during a war. Courier-Journal.

MEX. TAXES

heads with the MWiean federal and state governments. The Mexican
appetite for taxes seem to offer little obstacle to their increase. ' Ap

This return of more than a dollar an
animal is said to be exceptionally good
n view of the short feeding period.
During the 30-day feeding period,
'he 28 hogs made a total gain of 1,030
iounds, or 36.8 pounds each, which
was an average daily gain of 1.22
i pounds for each animal. They weighed
!i6.2 pounds each at the beginning of
ihe demonstration and 13 pounds each
at the end of the 30 days, even and
one-half hours of labor valued at 15
rents an hour were required to take
rare of the animals during the feeding
period. They were sold fox $242.55.
In getting the 1,030 pounds of gain
on his hog, Mr. Wilson fed 63 bushels
cf corn, 75 pounds of tankage and 1,
S0O pounds of skimmilk. The pigs also
had the run of a good red and sweet
lover pacture. A total of 349.8 pounds

feeds cost $5.34 when corn was val

32 ceuts a 100 pounds and tankage at
$4 a hundred pounds. The corn was
fed In a self feeder but the tankage
and skimmilk were hand fed. the for

The total cost,for each 100 pounds of

that his pigs had the run of a good

have obtained chaper gains by feed
