County Beekeepers Discuss Problems One hundred Orange county beekeepers attended an enthusiastic spring meeting of the Farm Bureau Beekeepers' Department held last Saturday at the Farm Advisor's office in Santa Ana.

Ralph Denton of Huntington Park presented some very interesting but technical information on the feeding of larvae. E. R. Root of Medina, Indiana, told of several new uses for honey, including honey ice cream, honey candy, When you are ready to cook, gas is ready to serve you—no delay, no uncertainty.

"Modern Homes Use Gas" Southern Counties Gas Company How Autos Figure In Income Tax Many Deductions Allowed Owners of Cars of All Kinds How automobiles figure in income tax returns is interesting thousands of motorists at this season of the year. There are various deductions allowed on account of ownership and operation of an automobile, but the state gasoline tax is not deductible since it is a "distributors' tax." According to advice, allowable deductions are as follows: All same paid during the calendar year in the form of registration fees, drivers' licenses, county personal property taxes and municipal taxes paid on the automobile. Interest on money borrowed for the purchase of an automobile irrespective of whether the car is used for business purposes or for pleasure. If a passenger car is used wholly for business purposes, all expenses incident to maintenance, including depreciation at the rate of twenty per cent per annum, may be deducted. Where the car is used partly for business and partly for pleasure, the expense may be deducted on a pro rata basis. Loss sustained by reason of damage to a passenger automobile while being used for pleasure is deductible. The loss however cannot be an actual loss to the person claiming the deduction. If it is compensated for by insurance or otherwise, it is not deductible. Where a material paid damages for injury to a pedestrian such amount is deductible, provided at the time the injury occurred the car was being used for business. The amount paid for insurance on automobiles used for business purposes and the amount of finance charges on a car which covers interest and risk on the loan, but not the amount covering the premium on insurance to protect the finance company's interest. Less which sustained where an auto-jealousy. Nor has universal democracy been established in spite of the tremendous sacrifices made in men and money. As a matter of fact, instead of adopting democracy, Europe seems in many instances to have veered toward autocracy. Germany, of course, has a new republican form of government which seems to be functioning pretty well under natural and inevitable handicaps. But in some of the other countries the situation is different. For there are now half a dozen nations in Europe ruled by dictators. The sixth one Jugo-Slavia, took on its dictator just a few days ago. The list is an imposing one: Italy, Russia, Spain, Poland, Greece and Jugo-Slavia. It would seem therefore that the coming of universal democracy in Europe is not yet at hand. The revolution in Russia heralded as bringing in the brotherhood of man, has resulted in one of the most tyrannical governments in the history of the world, in which opposition to the government and free speech are not tolerated. In Italy, Mussolini took charge when a second one the country was slipping into communism, and dictators took over the reign of government in Poland, Greece and Spain to stop what threatened to be civil war or a dissolution of the government. And now Jugo-Slavia, the latest in the family of autocrats, was conceived to adopt the dictator form to save itself from serious trouble. In this latter country a serious difference has broken out between the Serbs who had their own government in 1914 and the Creats, who were under the authority of the Austrian empire at the beginning of the war. The two nations have apparently been unable to get along under one government. These political history and their present political differences are too complicated to be detailed here. Since it says that they forming only another angle to the complicated European political puzzle. In America we have forty-eight states all under the same government, with free aride and a free exchange of ideas among all, it is difficult for us to understand all this. But we can understand that with so many vexing problems in the political situation in Europe it is better for us to stay out of the muddle so far as possible. ANAHEIM GAZETTE OLD CLOTHES TRADE The post-war depression in Europe had some curious and unexpected by-products. For instance, it has Brooklyn, instead of London, the clothes center of the world. Our old shift is explained by M. F. Westensen, an official at the Dash original, Brooklyn. Each year millions of dollars' worth of old clothes shipped to such regions as Africa, Asia, Constantinople, India and the former archipenago, to be bought and worn by the natives in those areas. Formerly the bulk of this trade came from London. Since the war Europe has not so many old clothes. People are wearing what they have until it is no wear wearable. So Brooklyn took up burden. It clothes from all over United States flow to Brooklyn—go around the world to begin imitation in some incredibly remote gee. The official song of the rum runner Coming Trough With the Rye." EUROPE AND DEMOCRACY We were told during the World War that we were fighting for two noble purposes; first, to end all future wars, and second, to establish universal democracy in all of the countries of the world. No one will seriously deny that the American people as a whole were moved by the two noble purposes and that those were not carried out can be held to post-war developments. That they have not been carried out is evidenced by the facts. The nations of Europe do not believe that war has been ended for all time to come. If they believed so there would not be now so much feverish preparation for war, nor so much mutual distrust and to the person claiming the deduction. If it is compensated for by insurance or otherwise, it is not detractible. Where a motorist paid damages for injury to a pedestrian, such amount is deductible, provided at the time the injury occurred the car was being used for business. The amount paid for insurance on automobiles used for business purposes and the amount of finance charges on a car which covers interest and risk on the loan, but not the amount covering the premium on insurance to protect the finance company's interest. Loss which sustained where an automobile used for business purposes is traced in for a new car may be deducted. POLITICAL HISTORY AND THEIR PRESENT POLITICAL DIFFERENCES ARE TO BE COMPARED TO BE DETAILED HERE. Surface it to say that they form only another angle to the complicated European political puzzle. In America we have forty-eight states all under the same government, with free aride and a free exchange of ideas among all, it is difficult for us to understand all this. But we can understand that with so many vexing problems in the political situation in Europe it is better for us to stay out of the muddle so far as possible. For troubles are not in Juno-Slavia alone. They can be found all over Europe and they are not to start a real configuration whenever any of the larger nations can see any advantage in such configuration. France and Italy are vastly interested in the fate of Juno-Slavia and each is strangling for the Terrible Goat Removed Mrs. W. C. Cox, Loaware, O.

Lithuania and Poland have not adjusted their differences. Neither have Russia and Romania, and there is tension, too, between the latter country and Hungary. Germany wants to annex Austria, too, and Italy and France, at odds on most questions, are agreed that this must be done. In short, the picture is not an alluring one from the standpoint of international harmony, and soove all hovers the red cloud of Russian communism, putting all the time to undermine the governments of the other nations of the world. When we take all these things into consideration there is little wonder that the average American wants his government to be sure of its step before it enters into any engagements with Europe.
