liz several Of the towns of this county
this year, Il sharp practice was quite lib
crafty INDUCED, whereby taxation is
Cvadcd. The law allows every person
800 exemption from taxation on per.
S"nal property. In some families To
get advantage of this exemption the
stock and other personal property was
divided among the different members OF
the family, in one instance seven per-
sons shared in making the returns for n
single family and secured IN exemption
of 500 instead of 500. This practice
srcns Ia hr on the increase and is al
ready IN abuse, rNcmpting good deal
