MY TAKES HERE ! The treasurer of the Norfolk and Western, I S. P. Chockley, is shown here presenting to State j Treasurer Jesse W. Dillon at Richmond a j $3,107,376.66 check for this railroad's 1956 !. taxes on rolling stock, gross transportation re; ceipts and intangibles. This is the largest single tax payment ever made by the N&W to the State of Virginia and one of the largest ever made to the State by any taxpayer. These tax dollars go into the State s general lund and are Withdrawn according to need to help pay lor various state government programs designed to benefit all ol our people. If used for public education, for example, the $3,107,376.66 is sufficient to provide a full, year of schooling to 16,458 young Virginians attending the public schools.* . In addmon to this state tax, the N&W also pays big tax bills to Virginia cities and counties and to the federal government. Last year's federal income taxes alone amounted to $30’/* million, while all taxes • amounted to about $44,330,000, more than 21* per cent greater than operating revenues. \ The N&W has served Virginia for more than a century, and in Addition to this substantial lax contribution for support of state government, the railroad maintains its own right of way. 3k Based on a per capita cost of 1188.80— the State median tor pupils In all grades.

How ihuch truer is this when a man or woman is not a doctor. Too many people diagnose their own ailments and prescribe for themselves—or let well-meaning friends do so. Such self-doc to ring can be mighty dangerous. Infections that could be stopped quickly under the doctor’s care often get out of control_requiring lengthy treatment and loss of pay, that would have been unnecessary. A self-treated condition which could have been checked promptly by the physician may lead to cnpplmg disability. j So see your doctor when you are not.-Well Don’t try to be youf own doctor.

Weekly Farm Price Outlook , .1 ' HOGS Unexpected strength in prices in the past couple of weeks may draw more hogs to market in the next week, if that happens, prices may move into the normal seasonal slide, unless colder weather pulls demand up proportionally. Higher, earlier slaughter, 6 to 8 per cent above last year for- the past three weeks, plus 11% fewer hogs on farms makes the fall outlook more cheerful. It looks now like the low price could come in late October, like it was in 1953. Arid that low will be considerably above last year’s $11.70 low (Chicago). Fall farrowing prospects are around 6% below last year. Last June, the estimate was set at 9 ,r below. _ Prices last week were: Western markets, steady to 50c higher at $16.50 to $17; Richmond yards, up 25c to 17.25 to $17.50; Virginia auctions, 65c higher at ,17. and Baltimore, 75c to $1 higher at $18.25. • „ VEAL We’re in the rising price period for veal, and it usually lasts to January and February. So if you have vcalcrs coming along, take^ vour time to get them to the right wright—200to 235 pounds is usually most acceptable weights.
