Pack- ard of the state tax commission. Last week Chairman Packard advised. the a sed valuation of North, Dakota state board of equalization that tio railways was too low by 15 per cent.

Changes are made in a number of smaller properties, the totals being, for 1916, $51,340,543; recommended’ by Chairman Packard for 1917, $73,- 349,437, How He “Figgers.” In a voluminous report, Mr. Pack- ard advises the state board that he arrives at his conclusions by capital- izing tbe net earnings at 6 per cent, which, he declares, is a higher net rate than farm lands of North Dakota earn. Farm lands in this state, ac- cording fo the fax commissioner's fig- ures, exclusive of unearned incre- ment, are a trifle less than per cent on the assessed valuation. He submits statistics to show that the corporations of the state earned an average of 12.09 per cent on their cap- ital stock ‘during the last year. He finds an earning of 15.21 per cent for financial and commercial institutions; 5.16 per cent for industries and man- ufacturing enterprises; 14.32 per cent} BY for mercantile ablishments, and 5.7 per cent for miscellaneous enter- prises. “ Tax Commission Fix Assessments on Basis Of Railroad Earnings Wants To Why? QEKKW Now ard came in with a new idea, which is that the assessed valuation of rail- ways on a is of earnings and with the earnings and sessed valuation of North Dakota f lands as a cri- terion should be 20 per cent higher. Some Difference, The differctice in the assessed val- uation of important railway proper- ties between the totals fixed by the state bodrd of equalization in 1916 and the values which Chairman Pack- ard now asks the board to adopt are as follows: $29, {25 348,833 49,488 268,813 345,717 151,186 o 125,989 Board in Quandary. The state board of equalization is prepared tn coosider Chairman ‘Pack- ard’s latest recommendations, but members are liegitining to wonder where somé of the state’s enterprises will get off if {he practice of arriving at assessed valuations by capitalizing the net earnings is adopted. Many farmers’ elevator. companies ni the state last year showed a net earn- ing of 100 per cent on their capital stock, which would boost the assess- ed valuation of a $15,000 elevator to about $150,000, if the Packard plan of assessing were adhered to. A net earning of $ 00 per annum for a farmers’ elevator company capitaliz- ed at $10,000 to $12,000 is by no means exceptional. Light By Wednesday. ‘Some light may be thrown on this matter next \ednesday, when thé railways operating in the state have their day. In the méantime the state board will devote its, attention to eolinty auditors, who are to appear before the board an@ explain their as- sessed valuations Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Millions of bush- els wasted because there was no way to get it to market. Even Odessa, the great Black Sea wheat port of Russia, has been on Short rations, though only a few miles from the wheat belt. Petrozrad and all the great cities have felt the pinch. The best source of supply has been far Siberia, where the International Harvester company has erected a chain of modern wheat élevdtors along the Trans-Siberian railway. The long haul on this grain has Made the supply all too scanty. The Trans-Siberian railroad and the sreat trunk line to the Arctic port of Arch- angel are the only Russian foads in any sort of condition.
