1t viii save much time to taxpayers,
also greatly facilitate the work of the
Assessor, II everyeperson before leaving
home will make out a complete list OF

following order
Horses, cattle, mules, sheep snd goats,
hogs, organs and pianos, watches, wag-
ons and carriages, dogs, merchandise,
machinery and engines, moneys, notes
and accounts above Indebtedness and all
other property, including household.
1t Is always required that the Auditor
get the first given name of the ~tax-pay-

Under the head of "place of resi-
dence" on tax return, give the town
ship.
All male citizens between the ages of
twenty-one and sixty years, on the LIST

able OF earning a support from being

ed taxable polls, Confederate veterans
excepted.
And all taxpayers are required to

er the property is situated in town or
country.
After the Goth day of February next,
fifty per cent penalty will be attached
for failure to make returns.
In every community there are per-
sons who cannot read or that do not
take 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 collection of taxes
arc done in the came year, and we have
to aggregate the number and value OF
all horses, mules, cattle, and all other
pieces OF personal property, as we'll as
the acres of land, lots and buildings and
their value, that there are i'm this Coun-
ty, end have the same on file in the
Comptroller Generals Office by the 3Oth
OF June OF each year, and from that
time to the first dav OF October tho Au.
ditor's and Treasurer's duplicates have
to be completed aud an abstract 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 anything else much, be-
tween the LIST OF October. but work on
the books and the blanks. We hope.
therefore, that all Taxpayers will make
their returns In time.

County Auditor.
