PROPOSITION WAS E NOT ENTERTAINEDE Bobcaygeon Independent: A meet! ing of the Cheese Factory patrons was held on Tuesday and Messrs. M. J. Lewis and W. Flavelle presented al proposition. Mr. Lewis has recently 1 pilff“?f‘s"‘i the interest of Mrs. Moore - in theismtcry. The proposition has been laid before the factories in the neighborhood is to the effect that Mr. Lewis will- purchase i thel milk at :1 set nrice for the season. Varyifl: a little according to the sea- son. His ofier was 82¢ a hundred pounds, and the patrons seemed to think that as the average results at the factory incheese making for the last few years was 85c, there was no inducement in the proposition for less Mr. Lewis intends to separate the milk and send the cream to the but‘ ter factory at Lindsay and turn the skim milk into casein, which is be- coming a marketable commodity for many industrial purposes. It is used :as buttons and other articles. and in the manufacture of fabrics. It was of no consequence to the patrons what Mr. Lewis did with the milk, but they decided not to entertain the proposition. It is understand that the Star Factory on the Scotch Line has accepted the proposition. LICENSE CLAUSE WAS WITHDRAWN Mail: The consternation caused by the fact that in the Hon.‘ W. J. Hanna‘s amendment to the liquor license clause stipulated that local option could be repealed omy on a threeâ€"fifths majority in favor of reâ€" peal will cease when It oecomes known that the clause was inserted in error. Already it has been with- drawn from the amendibg bill. and the law remains as at present. At Lplaces where local option was car- tried by a straight majority, under the old regulations, it can be re- pealed by a straight majority, but if carried on a three-fifths vote it must hang a three-fifths vote to reâ€" peal it. Owen Sound thus wil, ‘be able to repeal the local option there on a straight majority vote, as it was carried under the old reg- Nations.

Vancouver, B.C., with a popula~ tion of pbout 80‘000. is. distinguish ed as being the only city of metâ€" ropolitan size in: the world where a. definite and so far successful at- tempt has been made to obtain adeo quate total revenue without taxing either personal property of individ- uals or real estate improvements This result has been arrived ' at gradually. real estate improvements having been at first exempted to 50 per cent of their value, later to the extent of 75 per cent. and linslly in 1910 exempted altOgeth- The city government for 1910 was elected pledged to continue the ex- periment,, and apparently the large majority of citizens are well con- tent to have the tax majority as if is.

SOURCES OF REVENUE "cl Vancouver owns its own water works and gets some revenue from $6“ street railways and license taxes on ‘t' busineSS places. but the bulk of its sen revenue comes from a tax of $2. ml per $100 on the value of land, con ’0‘ sidered as bare and unimproved, .Of and all other sources of revenue {381 could be dispensed with, without #3:: 1 adding much to the tax rate. Ex-I on pert Valuers are employed to assist 'b ‘ city officials. Land values as asseS- » r1 sed {or 1910 approached closely the f average of one thousand dollars per u“ capital of the population. “3 . It is much to be desired that : lthc VancouVer experiment be closely , ‘watched by city and town author-1m ities in the United States, so that the results arrived at may be well understood. To be able to exempt buildings and all goods and ma- terials and stocks of merchandise lfrom taxation must have a tenden- I Cy to reduce house and factory rent and to keep down the general cost of living. Placing almost the entire burden of the cost of government 011 iz4 1:11 al ea ra tc a] on land values on,y has 1n Van- couver certainly not depreciated the values. but has been accomplished by a seeady growth in values which must have been very satisfactory to owners . Students of taxation will note that if the Vancouver experiment was in- tended to. enable the community treasury to get a greater share in the unearned increment this attempt has been an utter failure. The Vancouver indications are that unearned increment is a very elusive thing indeed. The fact is land val- the! actual result would be is by no means easy to determine. O The single taxer’s dream is that all pubhc revenues. local, state and , national, shall be drawn from one .' 1V tax on land value, and that in order to do this about 90 per cent of the annual use value of the land will need to be taken, necessitating an annual tax of from 50 to 100 per cent of the capital or selling value. How little the average.man knmvb' of the possi- bilities of this method of taxation, may be inferred from the astonish- ment that one feels at the mere thought if such tax as 100 per cent a. year. iNet the calculation is one of simple arithmet c, the only disturb. in: factor being that population will increase and the use value of urban and suburban lands will tend to rise in spite of tax requisitions. i This is a sentence in-la special re- port made to the Ontario Government by Dr. Helen MacMurchy, on infant imortality in this province. In Ontab iio, in 1000 births 125 die beofre they ,reach one year. The rate in England .is 109 per thousand births, and in 1 New South Wales only 72 per thous- ital zed value but also the increas- ed tax rate to a height altogether out of ordinary comdrehension. A rate of 2 per cent on all capital- ized value of land in aperfectly sta- txonary community? would apparently absorb about 28~100ths of the “unâ€" earned increment,” but in a place‘ where things move rapidly a tag rate is not burdensome, not enough to discourage speculative purchase and holdmg fcr sale and not sumci- ent to justify any claim that the un- earned increment has been captured and made to stand and deliver. CRUSADE AGAINST INFANT MORTALITY Toronto, March 9.â€"-“There is not much diflerence between the murderer and the one who stands by and sees those die whom he can save." “The time has come to act,” Dr. MacMurchy declares. “Poverty kills the baby, the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

Poultry and Pet Stock Association :1, British Columbia, asking him to offici'ate: as judge at their great show to be hefd. Jan- lSthâ€"ZOth., 1912. They asked for his terms and pressed him to accept. Mr. Trew after carefully considering the mat- ter decided to accept, and has received a message that his terms wera accepted by the executive. The. Show will be held, in VanCOuver. This was followed up by a mes- sage from Mr. E. B. Cale, of New Westminster, asking Mr. Trew to try and visit British Columbia by Dec. let, as some of the smaller towns wouldllike to secure his ser. vices as judge. Mr. Trew will al- so accede to the latter request. This is a distant-tribute to Mr. Trew's ability as! a poultry expert and is also a compliment to the town. of which Mr. Trew is an honored and respected citizen.
