s1,74i,S57, or an average value per
acre of sS.GG. when II was given In
at an average per acre Of only s7.S7.
Tho information In possession of
the state board Is that quite num-
Der of the counties of the state are
yearly assessing property, especially
the farm lands, ut much less than
their fair cash value. or even so per
cent. of that value. One witness be-
fore the board who was n member OF
the county board OF supervisors OF his
county. stated under oath that he
had been giving in his farm Mt less
than half its value. and that he did
so because all of his neighbors did
likewise. and made the general state
ment that the poorer sections of his
county were assessed as high as the
farms would sell for. while the bet
ter sections escaped. lie said that
many farms which owners refused TO
part with for $50 an acre were given
in to the county assessor at SIS per
acre. The board will give close at
tention. TO this matter during this
stock. the average of which is much
lower than II is In other states. not
withstanding the fact that finer
horses are raised and owned no
whore in the country.

10 per cent. increase raises the val
uatlon to s5,551,705, and increases
the average valuation per acre from
s11.93 as reported TO the board here,
to S13.12. The board will today
hear delegations of citizens from Full
ton and Crittenden, in both of which
the assessment is increased, and Hop
kins, in which the local assessment

action as to the assessments made in
the counties of Ballard, Caldwell,
Galloway and Livingston, OF the First
appellate district. The assessment
was accepted as made i'm the counties
of Galloway and Livingston, a good

by each, but the local assessment
and equalization in Ballard and Cald-
well was increased. The increase

sonalty of the county. The total as
sessment of Ballard as made to the
