1T will save much time to tax

work of the Assessor, If every per-
son before leaving home will make
out q complete list of every item Of
personal property in the following
order: Horses, Cattle, mules, sheep
and goats, hogs, watches, organs
and pianos, buggies, wagons and
carriages, dogs, merchandise, ma
chinery and engines, moneys, notes
and accounts above Indebtedness,
and all other property including
household.
1t is always required that the

the taxpayer in full.
Under the head of place Of resi-
dence on tax returns give the
township.
All male citizens between the
ages Of twenty-one and sixty years,
on the Ist day Of January, except
those who are incapable Of earning
a support from being NAMED or
from other causes are deemed
taxable polls Confederate veterans
excepted).
And every taxpayer is required
to give the number of their school
districts.
After the ooh day Of February
next fifty per cent. penalty viii be

In every community there are
persons who cannot read or that do
not take a newspaper. Those more
fortunate may do such persons Il
great favor by telling them of the
time to make or by return
ing for them.
The assessing and collecting
taxes is all done in the same year,
and we have to aggregate the num-
Der and vBlue Of all horses, mules,
cattle and other pieces OF personal
property, as well as the acres of
land, lots and buildings and their
value, that there is In this County,
and have the same on file in
Comptroller Generals Office bA the
3Oth Of June Of each year and
from that time to the first day Of
October the Auditor and Treasu-
rer's duplicate have to be COM
pleted and an abstract Of the work
i'm the CO~mptrOller's Office by that
time, which will show at u glance
that the Auditor has no time to
take returns or anything else
much between the LIST day Of
March and the lst day Of October
but Hork on the books and the
blanks. We hope therefore that all
taxpayers will make their retuns
In time.
