WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 1914 |TAXABLE POSSESSIONS THROUCHOUT STATE Tax Commissionsr W. H. Corbin [ssues Pampa.ct. Hartford, July 29.—Some idea of the taxable possessions of the citizens of Connecticut and the wealth in the state is given in the pamphlet issued to- day by State Tax Commissioner W. H. Corbin relating to the assessment and collection of taxes. The figures are obtained by adding together the returns made by the individual towns. { The grand list for 1913 was $1,- (172,051,740, an increase of $206,421,- | 933 in four yvears. Shown by Comparison. The progress Connecticut has made industrially and otherwise is shown by comparison. In four years stores, mills, factories and distilleries have increased 2014 with an increased val- uation of $52,844,952. For 1913 there were returned for taxation pur- poses 19,408 stores, mills, etc., valued at $226,108,295. The mercantile es- tablishments in this list numbered 14,- 306 of a value of $122,933,643. This value is greater than the value of manufacturing plants indicating that the trader is still in the lead of the fabricator. Decrease of Horses. The general use of the automobile is possibly shown in the decrease of the number of horses and mules used in transport. In 1913, 73,819 horses and mules were owned of a value of $5,339,126, the number being 2,711 less than four years ago while their value increased $607,788 or $9 a head. But in wagons, automobiles and bicy- cles the value doubled in the four vears, being $13,493,639 in 1913, as compared with $6,409,534 in 1909. | Raising of meat cattle was on the !down grade as the 154,271 head in 1909 dropped to 144,481 in 1913, yet the value of the latter amounting to $4,115,999 was $6 a head, increase over the 1909 figures. The value of .sheep, poultry over exemption $164,316 as compared with $77 1909. goats, swine, in 1913 was ,320 in Land Value Increases., The value of land has increased be- cause more-acres were taxed in 1913, but the acreage value remained at {835 on an average. In 1909 the 2,- 710,485 acres were worth $96,588,417 while the 1913 list gives an increase of 49,758 ‘acres and value increase of $2,642,713. ; Dwellings, bafns, “étc., increased in number. In 1909, 172,625 buildings were worth $431,690,537, while in 1913 the 223,850 buildings were valued at $563,058,066, an average increase of! $14. .

We can hardly realize that of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly one-qua~ter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma~ Jority of these precious lives, Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever. Opium Morphine nor Mioeral NoT NARCOTIC.

It is a sure and reliable medicine for infants and chil- dren. In fact, it is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments.” Dr. H. F. Merrill, of Aygusta, Me., says: “Castoria is one of the very finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to its efficiency and merits.” cenuine CASTORIA ArLwars Bears the Signature of The Kind You Have Always Bought In Use For Over 30 Years.
