Anditer Iverson has fixed the state tux Jevy and it shows a reduc- tion of .28 of a mill from the levy of the pregent year. The 1914 levy was 5.03 mills and is 4.75 mills for next year. An increase of$124,000,000 in the assessed valuation of the state made part of this reduction possible. The final figures on assessments are not available, as three counties have not reported, and the state tax commis- sion has just begun its work of equalization, but Mr. Iverson estimat- es the total real-and personal prop- erty assessment of the state this vear at $1,494,000,000, compared with $1,369,970,302 for 1913. An- other factor in the decrease is the final retirement of state capitol cer- tificates. The capitol now is paid for and .2 of a mill heretofore levied is done away with. Mr. Iverson has made the levy for the state revenue fund two mills even, instead of 2.3 mills. Other items are the same, save a slight in- crease from .03 to .05 of a mill lev- ied for national guard armories. The items in the state levy for 1915 are: Mills .2.00 .1.00 . .10 .20 State Revenue fund .. Road and bridges . Soldiers’ relief Prison building fund National guard armories, . . .05 Educational building fund .14 Historical society building .... .01 Itasca park acquisition oo .02 State school fund ............ 1 00 State university ............. . 23 The legislature fixed the maximum tax levy for the biennial perfod last year. The state auditor has author- ity to reduce this where possible. Information About Minnesota Farms.

D e ..—.....-..w-g o—aspe In selecting-a brood sow look for, an animal broad between the eyes and snout. The ears should be medium in size and fine in texture and the back strong and well arched. Hoofs should be short and stand erect. legs fairly long, so the udder will not drag the ground. The under line should be long, hips broad and the body deep. A gentle disposition is Important. A nervous, high strung sow is dear at any price. Red clover hay well cured 1s an ex- cellent food for horses. It is almost a balanced ration. When horses are at work it is too bulky as an exclusive ra- tion, and therefore grain should be fed in connection with it." Corn is excel- lent for this purpose. 1 know of many farms on which clover hay is often given as an exclusive feed for farm work horses during the winter season, when only light work is done. There is no question that beef cattle relish sllage just as well 8 the dairy cattle do.
