Tomuis to VMl Nebraska
The state of Texas has announced
that it will send a special train car
rying 125 young fanners to Ncbra3lt
to study agricultural methods. The
bojs will be selected by uompetiliu
examination in about 100 counties.
The project is a part of the work of
the iexas Agncaltural College and
the Texas Chamber of Commerce to
improve farming and livestock raid
ing. Bankers, business institutions,
organizations and pohlic spit ilea cit
izens are paying for the train. Yhe
object of tho tour, which will include
several northern and cistern states
and southern Canada, is to give the
representatives of tlu rising genera
tion of Texas farmers an oppo-tunity
to bee and study first- hand the best
methods and practices of the most
successful farmers in the United
States, and to fix in their uindshigh
standards and right ideals of coumry
life. During the last year several
hundred of Nebraska purebted hogs
were sent to Texas for breeding par
poses and the yodng farmeia are es
pecially desirous to see some of the
farms which produce these ood hogs.
The train will arrive at Lincoln tne
morning of August 9. Most of the
day will be spent at the College of
Agriculture. From Lincoln tne train
will go into Iowa.
Nebraska lias 11 Ncn Pest
A new pest koown as the Harle
quin cabbage bug has appeared in
several Nebraska counties. The bug
has long been- known in the south
where it does great damage to cab
bage and other vegetables. It grad
ually worked until it reached Kan
sas and Colorado a few years ago.
Last year it crossed the Nebraska
line into Dundy county and destroy
ed fifteen acres of cabbage for ono
grower. No other damage was re
ported last year, but this year tho
bug destroyed eabbogo in Frontier,
Hooker, Custer and Valley counties.
So far no effective method of fight
ing the post has been found. Tho
very young bugs can bo destroyed
with a kerosene emulsion but noth
ing seems to hurt the adult bugs.
It is advocated that all cabbage crop
remnants, infested weqds and (sur
rounding rubbage be burned to keep
the bugs from going through the
winter. webworms have appeared
in the corn in four counties, in one
or two places doing some damage.
It is believed, however, that the in
jurj will not bo great from this pest.
Damage to alfalfa, however, may re
sult later in tho year, as the web
worm Is usually tho worst in this
state in September. This Is the first
time tho webworm has caused injury
in thi3 state early in the year.
GUY UK HA
BIG ADVANTAGE
OVER FARMER
New York Has Billion and Half
Tax-Exempt Securities Now
Outstanding.
THEN WHY TAX FARM BONOS?
Guy Huston Shows. That Proposal to
Tax Joint Stock Land Bank Bonds
Would Injure Farmer and Ralso
' Interest Rates on Farm
Mortgages.
Now York city nlonc has outstand
ing $1, -150,000,000 of tax-exempt bonds,
nud thero Is n total of $8,000,000,000 of
tux-exompt municipal bonds outstand
ing at tho present time. Hundreds of
million of this nntount nro -Invested In
electric light plants, water works, mu
nicipal docks, subways and other largo
income-producing properties. Then
why deny to tho farmers of America
the right to borrow n few hundred mil
lion dollars on tax-exempt bonds?
This was tho question raised
by Guy Huston, president of tho
American Association of Joint
Stock Land Banks, In January nt
n hearing before the senate com
mittee on bnnklng and currency. A
bill, known as senate bill 3109, which
would repeal tho tax-exemption feature
of the farm loan act as applied to tho
bonds of Joint stock land banks, was
beforo tho committee and tho argu
ment urged by the supporters of tho
bill was that tho government needed
the revenue. Mr. Huston showed that
these farm loan bonds constituted loss
than one-third of one per cent of the

amount of tax-freo securities and that
tho lncomo the government would de
rive by taxing these farm bonds would
nmount to nothing ns compared to the
Income that might bo derived by, tax
ing city bonds.
Mr. Huston said:
"There aro four billions of dollars of
farm mortgages In the United States,
which, according to tho best authori
ties, nro held os follows:
Insuranco companies . . . .$1,100,000,000

FnrnVMortgages Not Generally Taxed.
Ho explained that tho $2,100,000,000
of farm mortgages carried by the in
suranco companies, savings banks,
stato banks, trust companies and com
mercial banks escaped tho lncomo tax,
and that tho Income tax paid by theso
Institutions Is 11 tax only on the profit
n tho stock of theso corporations. Ho
eald that tho joint stock land banks
now puy uu lncomo upon tho profit on
their stock tho same as theso other In
stitutions. Mr. Hust6n also explained that
eleemosynary Institutions which curry
$400,000,000 of farm mortgages pay no
Income tax.
Ho said further that $1,250,
000,000 which ho classified as lo
cnl loans ura carried In small
units by local Investors who pay
only a local Income tux, If they
hnppen to pay nuy ut all. These can
not bo rewritten under tho provisions
of tho federal farm loan act becuuso
they Imvo been mado on terms nnd
conditions which could not bo accept
ed under tho federal law.
Food Moro Important Than Revenue.
Mr. nuston then showed that In
reality thero was left only $250,000,000
(out of tho original $1,000,000,000 of
loans on farm mortgages) which are
now paying nn Income tax but which
In tho future might cscapo taxation
under tho farm loan act as It now
stands.
Mr. Huston said thut tho need of tho
nation for Increased production In
ngrlculturo was so great that tho gov
ernment, uctlng for tho common wel
fare of tho ctitlro nation, should per
mit tho lssuuncu of farm mortgago
bonds without their being subject to
