Many have taken this remedy and

DR. RAPER SIGGESTS NEW
METHOD OF TAXATION
NOTICE OF LAND SALE
In a recent address on the subject
of taxation in this State, Dr. Chas.
Lee Raper, professor of economics in
the University of North Carolina, sujr
gests a new method of taxation t:
take the place of the present one,
which he considers defective. Amonjr
the defects which he named are: That
the same kind of property is now or.
the assessment books at valuations
varying from 3 per cent to 1 per ccti'.
of fair cash value; that considerable
property is not on the books at all;
that one township pays more than il
should and another less than it should
to the same county; that one county
bea's a larger proportionate share of
the State's burdens than another; that
a good many of the now famous
"pauper" counties are really well-to-do.
Dr. Raper believes the only way to
reform this system is through effect
ive machinery of assessments, both
State and local. He would have the
legislature of North Carolina creat"
a state tax commission which would
have charge of the assessment of the
citizen's taxable property. This com-
I mission should have ample power aw'

This commission, Dr. Raper believes
should be composed of three men, who
are non-partisan and who are skilled
in matters of taxation. They shouW'
give all their time to their official
tasks. He thinks these tasks are
those of careful business men rather
than those of politicians. We should
also have an efficient and permanent
local office of assessment, manned b
a capable man, who should devote all
his time to this work or assessment,

"Fundamentally this country is a
good place to do business in," says
the little book just issued by N. W.
Ayer & Son, "because there are so
many people here and because the
great majority of them have means
to buy things. So all our business
prosperity goes back to the common
welfare of the common people."
Some who admit the truth of these
statements say that this country is
no longer so good a place to do busi
ness as it used to be. They say the
conditions of our past prosperity were
largely accidental and such prosperity
cannot be expected hereafter because
we no longer have a "virgin continent
to exploit," and so on.
Well, Europe hasn't been "a virgin
continent" for a great many centuries.
i et though long in the condition in
that regard which we are just begin
ning to approach Europe has so pros
pered as to be a' le to lend other con
tinents billions of dollars. And there
is another factor that must be taken
into the account. It is thus stated by
the thoughtful little book referred to:
There never was a time when so
many persons were trying in so many
ways to make things better.
This is the day for better things
better food, better homes, better
health, better babies and better busi
ness. Winston-Salem Journal.

pain or soreness in a joint or muscle,
bathe it with Sloan's Liniment. Do
not rub it. Sloan's penetrates al
most immediately right to the seat of
pain, relievin.T the hot, tender, swool

have it in the house against colds,

it does give almost instant relief.
DISTANCE TRAVELED BY FLIES
One of the problems that has arisen
in connection with the part played by
insects as carriers of disease concerns
the distance which they may be able
to travel from one locality to another.
Until recently very little had been
known with regard to the migration
of the common house fly. A series
of studies conducted in Cambridge,
England, on the range of the flight
of flies has thrown some light upon
the subject. Upward of 25,000 flies
were liberated from the medical build
ings at Cambridge. Of these insects,
colored for identification, 191 were re
covered. The result showed that
house flies tend to travel either
against or across the wind. The ac
tual direction followed may be deter
mined by the action of the wind or
by the Cies being attracted by the
odor of food. The maximum flight
observed in the thickly housed local
ities in Cambridge was about a quar
ter of a mile. In the open country the
distance would probably be greater.
However, alnion any reasonable dis
tance may be cohered by the Hy under
compulsion to reach food and shelter.
