The month of March was a
record breaker in the collection
of taxes by the county treasur-
er's office, there being during
the month 1920 receipts issued
aggregating $129, 9,369.92 ap-
proximately. This amount may
be a few dollars out of the wav
as the balances have not yet
been proven, but the final bal
ance will not be much different
from that given above. This
gives an average for each re-
ceipt issued of 1854. In a
majority of cases this is only
the first payment, some of the
taxpayers, however, pay the
whole of their taxes at one time.
