The act also requires the sheriff ~o kill all such unlicensed dogs. On or before Jan. I0 of each year, the owner is required to secure a li- 'cense for the ensuing year. The fees are as follows: male dog, $3; female, $6; unsexed, $2. He may secure his license from the township treasurer up until the time such treasurer makes his annual settlement with the county treasurer. After that time, the license must be obtained from the !county treasurer. 1 The supervisor of each township in taking his assessment is required to make a list of all dogs in his township which is turned over to the county treasurer on or before June 1. On June 15, the county treasurer makes a comparison of the records of the dog licensed in the county with the lists provided by each supervisor, and from those records makes a list of the owners of unlicensed dogs in the county. Copies of this list are fur- nished to the sheriff and prosecuting attorney whose duty it then becomes to begin proceedings against the de- linquent owners and to kill such un- licensed dogs. This action ,will be taken immediately after June 15. Therefore, any owner of an unli- censed dog who wishes to escape /prosecution, or who desires to prevent the killing of his dog, should pay his license at once.

CHIEF ACCOMPLISHMENT OF

THE SESSION WAS DEFINITE

STAND AGAINST TAX-EXEMPT

BONDS AND SECURITIES.

(By WILLIAM L E E CALNON.) Lansing, Mich.

More public attention having been directed to battles over legislative bills that did not get through tho mill in the 1923 regular, session than to those which did~ it may~ come as a surprise to know that tho state has 335 new laws, or will have when they all take effect 90 days after the sine die adjournment on May 31.

Failure of the 2-cent gasolino tax bill and tho subsequent defeat by "gas bloc" bitter-enders of the weight tax bill for motor cars, designed to substitute for it, leaves the state highway department short of funds for continued road development.

Fail,.Jre to D~ss-any rea,pportIon- ment biI! affecHug senate and honse seats, despite the constitutional n=a~:- date that this be done by the 192;~ legislature, may result in the le~(is- lators being called back in special session later In the year. The gaso- line ,~v we~o'h+ , ..... b~-~tle might be resumed again at such a session .~f the governor calls the matter up.

The senate buried in committee the income tax bill passed by the house despite the referendum vote against such a tax Iast November. The effort to reapportion pmmary school funds also failed.

Perhaps the chief accomplishment of the 1923 leglslature was the taking of a definite stand against tax-exemI)t bonds and securities.

Of the 335 acts adopted by the legislators 154 originated in the sen- ate and 181 in the house• Followin~ is a digest of the bills that became session acts:

months old and over that does not at all t~mes wear a collar with the metal license t ag attached, except when en- gaged in lawful hunt ing accompanied by its owner or custodian. The pen- ally for such violation is a fine not ex- ceeding $100 or imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding three months, or both such fine and impris- onment. The act also requires the sheriff ~o kill all such unlicensed dogs.

On or before Jan. I0 of each year, the owner is required to secure a li- 'cense for the ensuing year. The fees are as follows: male dog, $3; female, $6; unsexed, $2. He may secure his license from the township treasurer up until the time such treasurer makes his annual set t lement with the county treasurer. Af ter that time, the license must be obtained from the

!county treasurer. 1 The supervisor of each township in taking his assessment is required to make a list of all dogs in his township which is turned over to the county t reasurer on or before June 1. On June 15, the county t reasurer makes a comparison of the records of the dog licensed in the county with the lists provided by each supervisor, and from those records makes a list of the owners of unlicensed dogs in the county. Copies of this list are fur- nished to the sheriff and prosecuting at torney whose duty it then becomes to begin proceedings against the de- l inquent owners and to kill such un- licensed dogs. This action ,will be taken immediately af ter June 15. Therefore, any owner of an unli- censed dog who wishes to escape

/prosecution, or who desires to prevent the killing of his dog, should pay his license at once.

Remah~s Were Brought Here for Bur- ial; Funeral Service Was Held

Thursday Afternoon.

Mrs. Amuel Frutchey, for 31 years a hi~hty respected arid well known res ident of Cass City, passed away at St. Mary's hospital at Saginaw on Monday afternoon, May 14, at two !o'clock, following an operation a few w e e k s previous. She was 72 years of age.'

1 The remains were brought to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ernes t Sehwad-

:erer at Cass City on Tuesday and funeral services were held there Thursday afternoon conaucted by ,Rev. W. W. Edwards. In terment was made in Elkland cemetery.

Lydia Sarah Et t inger was born in Mr. Bethel, Pc., on Nov. 7, 1850. In

~tthat s tate in 1869, she was united in mar r iage with Amuel Frutchey. They

i came to Michigan in 1877 sett l ing at Troy. A few years later, t h e y moved to a fa rm near Deford, later coming to Cass City where they resided until November 1921 when they went to live in Saginaw.

That those esJ:ablished in business should be given preference over itiner- ants ahvays has been considered good judgment . In addition to paying taxes

,and helping support home institutions, ' the permanent ly established individual i always is ever at hand to hear com- '~plaints, adjust any differences or car- i reeL possible errors.

It will be remembered that Mr. and Mrs. Crawford were one of the fam- ilies who suffered a great loss of i property through the terrible cyclone ~of June 5, 1905, when all of their buildings with contents were swept away in a very f~w moments. Mrs. Crawford's poor h~alth dates back to that time. She Was a good Christian, a kind and helpful friend and neigh- bor, loved by all ~ who knew her. Friends extend sympathy to the fam- ily in their bereavement.

The funeral took place at the home Monday afternoon conducted by Rev. i Willerton. The remains were laid to i rest in Novesta cemetery. Those from l a distance who attended the funeral lwere Mrs. Weston and daughter, Mrs. i E. Hulet of Detroit, Frank Clark and ~M:rs. Win. Cheney and two daughters of Yale.

I/AI{T.P/Illlt KEROSENE POWER

Thinking Farmers Have Thought Out the Facts Thinking farmers agree, and market prices

prove, that grain turned thru hogs and fat

steers and sold "on the hoof" brings prac-

tically double the price received when sold

in bulk. The same is true of grain turned

thru dairy cattle in form of dairy products.

Government Reports prove that on the av-

erage it takes the produce of five acres to

keep a horse one year. How many hogs,

steers or dairy cattle would five acres main-

tain for one year? 2
