Coffee said that a 8-mill tax
would produce at least $10,000,-

would come very near support-

not committed to 8-mill and will
support a higher tax should it
be deemed expedient and neces-
sary. He is now compiling a

will be ready shortly for distri-

tax due on May 1, 1922, will
result in the forfeiture by the
secretary of state’s department
on next Monday, July 2, of the
charters and permits of approx-
imately 1,000 state and out-of-
state corporations, announced
C. W. Payne, clvef clerk of the
department Saturday. The de-
partment will declare forfeited
the charters of the state cor-
porations and the permits of
the out-of-state concerns after
which these delinquents will
have no authority to do busi-
ness in Texas.
The franchise tax law pro-
vides that all such delinquents
shall have until January 1, 1923
in which to be reinstated, by
the payment of a penalty of 25
per cent of the amount of the
tax, and an additional five per
cent for each month that these
concerns have been thus delin-
quent.
There are approximately 12,-
000 corporations doing business
in Texas, and out of that num-
ber only approximately 1,000
were delinquent. It is expected
that between now and next Jan-
uary many of these delinquents
will pay the penalty and tax and
be reinstated.

For tomorrow’s breakfast—treat the family
to Kellogg’s Corn Flakes and fresh fruit! See
that there is a big pitcher of cold milk ready!
And, urge each big and little family member to
cat plenty, for Kellogg’s are the perfect warm
weather food!
Kellogg’s Corn Flakes are not only delicious
in crispness and flavor, but they’re wonderfully
nourishing and refreshing. They give stomachs
n chance to rest in warm weather because they
digest so easily. Eat Kellogg’s regularly and get
away from so much heavy foods
and see how much better every
one in the house feels!
Insist upon Kellogg’s Corn
Flakes in the RED and GREEN
package that bears the signature
of W. K. Kellogg, originator of
Corn Flakes! Nono are genuine
without it!
