IMPORTANT TO GRArE GRowgRs ANN Nun
sgRYMEN Vineyards and Nurseries heretofore
have never been listed by assessors as personal
property, but have been considered in the same
respect as corn or wheat--the land being tax
ed, but not tho products Last spring, Auditor
Matthew'S instructed the various township as
SCISSORS TO list vineyards, nurseries, etc, as per-
sonal property; but this gave cause for violent
complaints on the part of those owning the
property, and who had been doing quite well

tcrs sure, and avoid censure, Mr.. Matthews ad
dressed a letter TO the Auditor Of State, from
whom he has just received reply, assuring
hlm that his instructions to the Assessors were
perfectly right Auditor Wright states that
such has been the uniform instruction from that
office, "lhe fruit or ornamental trees being held
for sale, the dealer is a merchant in the sense OF
the Tax Law" and the value TO he returned
must be determined by the same rule as met
chants stock IN general This is a matter Of con
siderable Importance TO large class Of citizens
