Judge John Awtrey has levied the
county tax for this year at SOC on the
one hundred dollars. Last year it was
55cts. But for the terrible washout of
bridges and abutments during the re-
cent heavy rains, he would bave been
enable to have made it 45cts. The state
tax is 54cts. making the state and coun-
ty tax rate this year $40 40 on the 81 900.
