Absolutely no provision was made
in the levy for the deficit Inherited

that the question of issuing funding

be left to the people Of the state for

amount S507 $50 to the appropriation
making a total of $3,045, ,415,20 TO be
provided for. Aside from direct tax

nres of the state are s722,0G7.21,
leaving a balance of $2,523.3 .3J3.S3 10

The total property valuation OF the
state Is $l,327,527 80" and on this
sum the mill levy will raise $2,655,.

Out of the total amount raised,
there will be paid SAL ,037, appropri-
