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 a complete list
of every item of personal property in
the following order: Horses, cattle,
mules, sleeps and goats, hogs, organs
and pianos, watches, wagons and car
riages, dogs, merchandise, machinery
and engines, moneys, notes and ac-
counts above indebtedness and all 9TH
er property, including household.
1t is always required that the Audi.
tor get the first given name of the tax
payer in full.
Under the head of place of residence
on tax return, give the township.
All mae citizens between the ages OF
twepty-one and sixty years, on TIE
LIST of January, except those who are
incapable of earning q support from
being manned, or from other causes
are deemed taxable polls, Confederate
veterans excepted.
And all taxpayers are required to
give number of their school district.
They are also requested to state wheth-
err the property is situated in town or
country.
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-
sons who cannot read or that do not
tako a newspaper. Those more fortu-
nate may do such persons a great favor
by telling them of the time to make re-
turns Or by returning for them.
The assessing and collecting taxes is
done ] n the same year, and we have to
aggregate the number and value OF all
horses, mules, cattle, and other pieces
Of personal property Of we'll as the
acres of land, lots and buildings and
their value that there are in this
country, 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 T~reasurer's duplicate
have to be completed and an abstract
of the work in the Comptroller Cen
erals office by that time, which will
show at q glance that the Auditor has
no time to take returns, or anything
else much, between the lst of October,
but work on the books and the blanks.
We hope, therefore, that all taxpayers
will make their returns in time.

Auditor.
