Decreases in the price of wheat and soybeans were 'offset by a slight upturn in quotations on corn and beef cattle and a sharp increase in hog prices. The JJ.S. Index of prices paid by farmers, including taxes, interest and wages, remained unchanged during the month ending May 15, but stood more than 3 per cent below the mark recorded last year on the corresponding date. STATE INCOME Hie State of Illinois received almost $21,000,000 more from its six leading sources of income during the first five months of ll>53 than in the same pet+od last year, according to Director Richard J. Lyons of the Revenue Department. Reflecting the onecent increase in gasoline taxes, motor fuel taxes showed the largest upturn. Receipts from this source from January through May were $4T,677,247, up $10,148,087 or 27.04 per cent over last year. The sal^g tax continued to be the largest single source of revenue, producing $88,560,857 as compared to $80,838,192 last year, an in crease of 9.55 per cent. Increases were also recorded in cigarette; public utility, liquor and petroleum tax "receipts. Although the Revenue Department is on its way to a record-high ye-ar in collections, it is operating with a reduced staff, in accordance with Governor William G. Stratum's policy, and now has 200 fewer employees than in 1949, Lyons said. . jpeet at the drugstore at 8 ajm. curds. ijlune 28, Sunday, where we will Into the mix you now have, ^^.•^Ineet at the church for 4-H Sun- We decided that if we dMn't have our scrap books done we couldn't go to» the ;y!
