The mild weather for the past two
weeks has had a wonderful effect on the
business in the county t%reasurer's Office.
The tax receipts have been large,
averaging 5000 per day for the past
week and increasing each day as the
time draws nearer March I, when taxes
become delinquent. The farmers, who
we're kept at home during the cold
weather in the latter part Of December
and all of January. are now coming in
and paying their taxes. In view of the
present receipts at the treasurer's Office
and the general prosperity of the county,
it is evident that fewer taxes will be
allowed to become delinquent this year.
