It might be we'll to see what the laws
relating to assessments say on this sub
iect of interest to all owners of land.
The last legislature passed an act
(chapter $500, (No. y and careful
perusal of the printed copy as published
by Comptroller Groom, contains the
following sections bearing upon the
subject:
Sec. 2. Real property, for the pur-
pose Of taxation shall be construed to
include lands and all buildings, fixtures
and other improvements therein, and
the terms land and real estate,
when used in this chapter, shall be
construed as having the same meaning
as the term real property"
Note the two words "other I'M
provements. AS charity covers a multi
tude of sins, so they cover a multitude
of things.
Sec. 10 Gin part): 1T hereby made
the duty Of every person owning or
having control * * of property subject
alton x giving the character and the
true cash value Of the same as required
by law, and, upon failure to do so, the
assessment and valuation made by the
assessing officer or officers shall be
deemed and held binding upon such
value to said land" etc., etc.
Cash Value. 1T is here up to the
owner to be honest; or to the assessor,
failing the owner, to be aware of the
Cash Value. 1t is case OF the lady or
the tiger, from financial point of view.
Sec 10. * * For the purposes
OF taxation, all non-bearing fruit trees
shall not be considered as adding any
value to said land. etc., etc.
This is very favorable section to
the owner Of one, two, three year old
grove, while in his possession; but
Will he consider it when offering the
grove for sale? Is it not held by horti-
culturlStS that tree adds one dollar
to It's value per year for the years it
IS growing up to fruiting age? Dollars
to doughnutS but he takes this into
cons1deratlon-and why should he not?
when a purchaser comes along.
Sec. 20. THE county assessor OF

Herewith, the value of the lands and
assess them at their full cash value in
the name of the owner or legal repre-
sentative Of the owner, or as I'm
known" ETC., etc., etc.
Full Cash Value."-It is I'D to the
assessor, after all, and he is human and
has neighbors and perhaps aspirations.
That he will study the best interests OF
the people and the state there is little
doubts; there may be exceptional
cases, but as a body the county asses
sors stand on plane for honesty OF
purpose as high as do other county
and state officials.
Starting out with the simple purpose
OF making a Timely Topic paragraph
OF the little discussion between the two
county papers first mentioned, the
copy has heightened out into a
special article; but the subject is one
we are all interested in and so, perhaps,
the writer will be pardoned for treating
1t at such length. February is ap-
preaching and the day for the assessor
is at hand.
