Real Estate is assessed this gear. 1890,
and all parties owning land, lots and
buildings, will please look up their deeds,
where necessary, and get the right mum
ber of acres, lots and buildings, that they
may own on the lst day Of January, 1890.
Ali buildings Of any sort that are worth
ten dollars and over are to be returned.
A good way for the Tax Payer who has
much property to return, is to make q
memorandum of each building and its
value, the number of Horses, Cattle,
Mules, Sheep and Goats, Hogs, Watches,
Organs and Pianos, Buggies, Wagons and
Carriages, Dogs, Merchandise, Machinery,
Monies, Notes and Accounts (above in
debtedness) Furniture, &c, which will
save the Tax Payer time, and enable the
Assessor to progress in the work. Tax
Payers return what they own on the first
day of January, 1880.
Assessors and Tax Payers will enter the
first given name Of the Tax Payer in full,
also make separate return for each party
for the Township the property is in, and
where the Tax Payer owns Realty, to insert
the Postof3ce rs their place cf residence,
and those who only own Personal Prop
erty to give the parties name who owns
the land they live on as their residence,
which aids the Tax Payer, as well as the
County Treasurer, in making the collec-
ton and preventing errors.
Every male citizen between the ages Of
twenty-one and fifty years, on the first
day of January, 1890, except those incapa-
BILE of earning support from being
manned, or from other causes, shall be
deemed taxable polls.
All returns that are made after the twen-
tieth of February next, haYe to be placed
on the Additional List, and fifty per cent.
penalty added thereto, unless prevented
by sickness, or out of the County during
the time of listing. Not knowing the
time of listing is no excuse; and all own
ers of real estate might do their Tenants,
who cannot read or take newspaper, q
great favor by making their returns or tell
ing them the time of listing, and that if
they fail to make their returns, that the
valuation has to be increased fifty per cent,
unless they have good excuse.
The assessing and collecting taxes is all
done now In the same year, and we have
to aggregate the number and value of all
the horses, cattle, mules, &C., as well as
the acres of land, lots and buildings and
their value that there is in the County,
and have the same on file in the Comp
troller Generals Office by the thirtieth day
of June each year, and from that time to
the first of October each year, the Auditor
and Treasurer's Duplicate has to be COM
pleted, and an abstract of the work in the
Comptroller's Office by that time, which
will show, at a glance, that the Auditor
has no time to take in returns, or anything
else much, between the first day of March
and the first day Of October each year, but
work on the books and blanks. There.
fore, hope that all Tax Payers will do uE
the favor of making their returns in time.

Auditor Anderson County,
