VALUATIONS INCREASED.

SEWER County Receives Attention
From Board Of Equalization.
The state board of equalization has
ordered an increase in the assessed
valuation of the property of Sewer
county as follows: Fifteen per cent in
crease on real estate; Is per cent on i'm
provements; 25 per cent on sheep and 20
per cent on machinery.
Notice was also served on the county
commissioners and county auditor of
Box Elder to show why the assessed
valuation of the sheep of that county
should not be raised to $3.50 per head,
the same as in other counties. The same
notice was served on the commission
ers and auditor of Garfield county. The
value of the sheep in these two coun-
ties was placed by the auditors at
1924.
Garfield county will be heard by the
board on the purpOsed raise in the
valuation Of sheep on July q at 10 in
the morning.
