1t will save much time to taxpayers,
also greatly facilitate the work of the
Assessor, If every person before leav-
ing home will make out o complete
list of every item of personal property
In the following order: Horses, cattle,
mules, sheep and goats, hogs, watches,
and carriages, dogs, merchandise, ma
chiUery and engines, moneys, notes
acd accounts above Indebtedness, and
all other property including house
hold.
1t is always required hat the Audi
tor get the first given name of the lax
payer in full.
Under the head of place of residence
on tax return, give the township.
All male citizens between the ages
Of twenty-one and sixty years, on the
lsl of January, except those who are
incapable of earning a support from
being MANNED, or from other causes,
are deemed taxable polls Confederate
veterans excepted.
And all taxpayers are required to
give the number of their school dis
trict.
After the goth day Of February next
fifty per cent. penalty will be attached
Tor failures TO make returns.
In every community there are per
rons who cannot read or that do not
take n newspaper. Those more fortu-
nate may do such persons a great favor
10y telling them OF the time to make
returns on by returning for them.
The assessing and collecting taxes
Is done in the same year, and we have
TO aggregate the number and value of
all horses, mules, cattle and other
the acres Of land, lots and buildings
and their value that there are in this
county, and have the same on file in
the Comptroller Generals Office by the
Both OF June Of each year, and from
that time to the first day of October
the Auditors and Trcasurer's dupli.
cate have to be completed and an alb
atract of the work in the Comptroller
Generals Office by that time, which
will show at a glance that the Auditor
has no time to take %returns, or any
thing else much, between the LIST day
of October, but work on the books and
the blanks. We hope, therefore, that
all taxpayers will make their returns
in time.

Auditor.
