In every community there are
persons who cannot read or that do
not take a newspaper. Those more
fortunate may do such persons a
great favor by telling them Of the

ing for them.
The assessing and collecting
taxes is all done in the same year,
and we have to aggregate the num-
Der and value 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 by the
3O;h Of Juno Of each year and
from that time to the FIRST day of
October the Auditor and Treasu-
rpr's duplicate have to be com.
plcted and an abstract Of the work
10 the Comptroller's Office by that
time, which will show at a glance
that the Auditor has no time to
take returns or anything else
much between the 1st day of
March and the 1st day Of October
but HOrk on the books and the
blanks. We hope therefore that all
taxpayers will mako their returns
in time.
