RAISES VALUATION
OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS
Equalizatlon B BoardMakes Gen.
eral Increase of 44PesC Gent
on This Class


The state board of equalization yes
terday gave its attention to household
goods and furniture, and increased the
total assessment of the class in the
state $5,345. 900, making a total yalua-
ton of the class of $17,711,0 900 in the
state at large.
All but three counties We're in
creased. and while Hennepin was the
only one in which the boards figures
are not final, it has been, mutually
agreed, between members of the state
board that raise Of SO per cent in
the assessment of the class in that
county viii be made when the board
gets down to work again on Wednes-
day. after the primary election. The
board adjourned yesterday until today,
but no quorum is expected to be pres
emit.
The assessment of household goods
IN Ramsey county was increased by
theastate board 32 1-3 per cent. but in
some of the counties of the state the
increase is more than the original as
seSSment. Swift and Clearwater are
raised 200 per cent: Murray and Cot
tonwood. 166 2-3; Pipestone and Sher-
burne, $50; Morrison and Douglas,
125; Winona, los; and these counties
/
Chippewa, Fillmore, Grant. jackson.
Kanabec, Kittson, Marshall, Rock,
Todd and WaSeca.
Total Increase of a. Per Cent
Last year the total value of house,
hold goods in the state was $13,262,294.
The return by the assessors this year,
as equal1Zed by the county boards was
$12,S66, 600, which with A per cent
increase by the state board. will bring
the final figures up to more than ST.
100000, an increase of over $4,000, ,0eo
in the class. Household goods repre-
sent one-twelfth of the personal
property of the state, and the big in
crease in this class is expected to ma
terially assist in overcoming the short
age of the total valuation of personal
property, as compared with year
ago.
In reaching the equalization of the
!. assessment, the board yesterday fixed
$40 as the minimum per capita out
Hennepin and st. Louis. The board
yesterday equalized the assessment of
Office furniture and fixtures. revising
the tariff upwards in most instances.
A comparison of the values Of this
class of property in Ramsey and Hen
nepin counties is interesting but for
the fact that undoubtedly much Of this
class of property in Ramsey is includ-
ed in other classes. While Ramsey re-
ported $46,905 in office furniture, Hen
nepin reported S436,490 of the same
class of property.
The following table shows the as
sessment Of household furniture Of
each county, with the amount added
