Make your food more tempting with Cottolene for making cakes, pies and pase try—for all shortening and frying —Cottolene-is supreme. Cotiolene Cottolene is an exact combination of the purest, richest, most carefully re- fined cottonseed oil and the choicest beef stearine obtained from selected, high grade leaf beef suet. Cottolene is itself one of the purest of pure foods. Cottolene makes foods more digestible —more wholesome—makes them taste better. 1t is an original product and better than anything else that you can use for shortening or frying. Use a third less of Cottolene than ofany other shortening or frying fat. Always heat Cottolene slowly. Arrange with your grocer for a reguiar suppiy. ‘Write our General Offices, Chicago, for a fres copy of our real cook book— “HOME HELPS.” [EEECFAIRBANKESEET) “Cottolene makes good cooking better” iy With Big Lumber Cargo.

The committee’s report and recom- mendations are shown in the advertise- ment on Page Ten of this issue of The Bulletin. Last year the city tax recommended was 10 mills, but it 'was raised by the annual city meeting to 11 mills. Mayor Murphy Explains. Mayor Murphy addressed the council as follows in further explanation of the reportsof the fihance committee: It was hoped by the finance commit- tee that it could announce to the court of common council that the ordinary expenses of the city for the current fiscal year could be covered by a ten mill tax; but after examining the re- quirements of each department of the city with the greatest care and con- sidering every item of expense as es- timated by such department, it ap- pears that a tax of eleven mills will be necessary. Last year a ten mill tax was rec- ommended by the committes, two years ago an eleven mill tax was rec- ommended, and three years ago a ten mill tax, which indicates that the tax rate must depend on conditions as they rise and vary from time to time. A year ago, from the information supplied by the gas and electrical de- partment, its gross receipts for the year were estimated at $225,000. The prospect at the time seemed to justi- fy fully that estimate; but during the year the demand for gas and electri- city fell off to quite an extent at the Thermos factory, the United Finish- ing Company’s plant and the plants o? some other concerns which have ‘generally used very large quantities of one or both of these products, so that the gross receipts for the year from the gas and electric department were only $193,610.91, which was $31,- 389.09 short of the estimated income, although the receipts were actually about $18,000 above all expense of the plant, including general interest and interest on the $400,000, mortgage bonds. From the Thermos factory alone thqre was at times only a monthly income to the department of something less than two hundred dol- lars instead of a former monthly in- come of §700,°$800, and up to $1,000. Notwithstanding this shinking in its receipts, there was deposited in the ‘bank for the depreciation fund of the gas and electric department $15,100, and for its sinking fund $18,338.48, as ordered by the annual city meeting a year ago, a total of $33,438.48, or about $15,000 more than the net income of the department. But these large cash deposits and the falling off in re- ceipts of that department as esti- mated, left the city treasury short of the funds requlredy to pay off twen- ty thousand dollars of the temporary loan of the year, which could and would have been paid if the gas and electrical receipts were as large as were promised by this council for ac- tion by the city meeting. On acgount of this condition, for which in fact the gas and electrical department was responsible, it is now proposed by the finance committee to use this same department in paying back the temporary loan, the plan be- ing to make no provision for adding to the gas and electric depreciation fund this year, but instead of that to wipe out the $20,000 indebtedness; and this arrangement is made in the estimates, As there has been a very great im- provement in business in the gas and electric department during the last three months, which promises to con- tinue and even to become very no- table as the year goes on, it is reason- ably certain that that department will not again be forced to cause the un- usual conditions which have just been described. The counci} will also bear in mind that in present times provisi must be made for higher wages in every city department than were pald only a few vears ago. The firemen, the po- lice and laborers in every kind of city work are Teceiving more pay than formerly, while it may be pointed out particularly that to pay the interest on the $320,000 bonds issued because of the city’s new reservoir at Stony Brook, the sum of $13,600 must be raised each yepr, which is a little more than is produced by a one mill dered by g z accepted and the resolution adopted. Grateful for Co-operation. Addressing _the council members, Mayor Murphy pleasantly expressed his_gppreciation of the work they had each done during the past year, saying that he was gratified at the co-opera- tion which had been shown and he had been encouraged by the help that they had given him. He wished the retir- ing members success, and upon a mo- tion by Councilman Joseph F. Williams the council adjourned at 8.35 without ay. OBITUARY. Mrs, Benjamin F. Greensiit, (Contributed.)
