For Sate Everywhere Iequt4 or Tablet Form LEVY NINE AND Comptroller General Prepa of Government for Year. . :, for Public Schools--! crease--Same I The State. Rut L. Osborne, comptroller gen eral, has completed his estimate of expenses for the State government for 1919, which shows that if all appro priastions asked be granted the State levy this year wil b0 nine and one half mills on total taxable values of $37),178,499, from which a revenue of $3,457,472.61 will be derived. The State levy of the last general assembly was also nine and one-half mills, which was later reduced to eight and one-fourth mills by the comptroller general because of the en larged revenue incident to increased va-luation of the State's tresources. Many of the institutions of the State, limwever, always ask the maximum fig tres, which are usually trimmed by the legislature, and the estimated Rate levy will in all likelihood be leduced. Increases asked by the various State :lepartments this year amount to $635, )89.28.. Six offices and departments are asking decreases amounting to $7-1.810.77. The largest item in the !olumn of reduc'tions is for elections, this item alone amounting to $43,925. The State Council of iDefense is ask Ing for only $5,000 against $25.000 one year ago. The attorney general's ofie Is eutt ing (own its approximated expense for the coming year $3,385.40; the Citadel, $6.2.10.37; interest on the State debt, $560; and public buildings, $250. The largest increase asked is in the oiee of the State superintendent of VEJIV MANY DEATHS IN NOVEMBER 1918 More Than Two Thousand Passed Away During' Month.

Concerning the estimates and the nec essary levy, Mr. Osborne says: "The total taxable iroperty of the State on January 1, 1918, was $376, 178,499. Upon the basis of the 1918 evy, eight and one-fourth mills, the revenue for 1919 will be $3,103,472.61. To .his we will add the estimated in come from sources other than taxes or $35-1,000, thus showing an estimated revenue for ordinary expenses of 1919 ef $3,457,472.61. "The appropriations asked for by the various institutions and depart ments amount to $3,927,153.79 and it. will be noted they will exceed the estimated revenie of the State under an eight and one-fourth mill levy by $169,681. 18. "If all the appropriations are I made us asked for it will be necessary to make a rate of about iine and one half mills on the dollar to raise the umount estlimated, for Section 2, Ar tiele 10, of the constitution requires a levy suflicient to pay the ordinary cxpenses of the State, together with any existing deflciency in the preced ing year."

The list shows price ranges i on nine general classified groups with a spread of $13.85 per cwt. -the lowest at $6.50 and the highest at $20.35. Why this variation in price? Because the meat from/(differ ent animals varies gre2 tly in quality and weight./ ;~ Although the qyro t i ns shown are in njce divisions, Swift & Companfgrades cattle [ into 34 general classes, and each class into a variety of weights and qualities. As a result of these differences in cattle prices,. (due to differences in JA weights and rneat qualities), there is a range of 15 cents in Swift & Comn pany's selling prices of beef car casses. These facts explain: 1-Why retail prices vary in different stores. 2-Why it would be difficult to regulate prices of cattle or beef. 3--Why it requires experts to judge cattle and to sell rneat, so as to yield the profit of only a fraction of a cent a pound-a profit too small to affect prices.
