MORE TROUBLE BY
CASH ASSESSMENTS
LATE DECISION OF SUPREME
COURT MAKES A LOT OF
EXTRA WORK

The board Of county commits
sioners held a meeting in the court
house last Tuesday afternoon and
took final action on the school tax
levy. They raised the levy to five
mills on the dollar in order to con-
form TO the recent decision OF the
supreme court. The previous levy
was two and a half mills which
was considered sufficient for all
purposes. The new levy is just
double the old and more school
funds will be collected than are
necessary.
This is what comes of the cash
value assessment plan, but it is
only one of the many evils of the
plan that have been let loose on a
suffering public. Just what each
tax payer has to pay in the form
OF unnecessary taxation as result
of this same cash value plan can
soon be determined when all tax
notices are distributed.
Now a word concerning the cOun-
ty assessor and collector who has
been made to suffer through the
adoption OF this plan by the gov
ernOr. Ever since the official du-
ties of the present incumbent, 4.
G. Isenberg, began, he has been
held up by the uncertainties and
peFpleXities of the cash value as
sessment plan. All matters per-
tanning tC assessments and taxation
OF property were i'll a condition of
chaos all over the state. There
was no agreement anywhere except
as to the depth Of the assessment
muddle. Mr.. Isenbergs work has
been hampered at every turn. He
did not know from day to day just
what could be depended on. That
he did his work well is evidenced
by the fact that his assessments
were left practically unchanged by
the state board of Equalization.
Also by the fact that compara
lively few of the taxpayers in
the county appeared before the
county board of Equalization to
complain of their assessments. TheI
work of field assessing had to be
done in a rush and that necessitat-
ed having it done by deputies who
were instructed by Mr.. Isenberg TO
verify each Individual list by the
signature of the taxpayer. This
plan was necessarily more costly
than in Ada county where the old
llSJS were raised HORIZONTALLY lWO
and one half times In order to
reach 100 per cent The roar that
was made when the Ada county |
assessment scheme was published
is evidence that the people prefer |
to pay what is necessary TO get |
their assessing business done right.
Long before the middle of N0vem- |
Der the collector is supposed to be |
taking in tax money and giving /!
receipts therefore. But Mr.. Isen- !
berg could not accept single dol !
lar in taxes till the final action or |
the county commissioners last |
His deputy and clerks |
are experts who will now have to |
work over time to make up for |
any lax times during waiting per- |
iods. II is work that new hands |
have no business with. In former |
years under sage brush CONDITIONS |
the number of names on the as
sessment rolls of Lincoln county |
was less than 500. Now there are |
between 5000 and 10000 names on |
the rolls. Almost 10 times the old |
number. Surely enere is work for
the assessor to do

Flowers As Food

Not only does the violet please
the sense of smell, but it pleases
the palate as well. In days gone by
a favorite sweetmeat was made of
candied violets; while a sherbet made
of extract of violets is said to have
surpassed any other extract.
All over Europe it is the custom
to mingle violets, roses and lime
blossoms with preserves to add a
f1owery element to the fruity flavor
Crystallized carnations. lavender,
syringa and lilac preserves are made
in Turkey. ~
In America sandwiches of flora
variety are usually made of nastur.
tiums, which is probably the most
useful edible flower that grows
there. In England sandwiches made
finely-chopped spearmint, spread
over slices of thin bread-and- butter,
are often served.
The tuber of dahlia is claimed
to be excellent for food, although
somewhat acrid. The dandelior
makes an excellent wine. But it is
! cooks of China and Japan who make
the best use Of flowers as food
They study the. various mixtures
scents. ETC., until they are able tt
arrange an entire banquet of nothing
but flower dishes. Elk.

Announcement has just been made
by Hugh E. Campbell, President ct
the. Arizona Wool Growers Associa-
ton, that the sheep industry of Ari-
IONA will be represented at the com
ing Arizona Fair by an exhibit much
larger and better than has been
shown at previous fairs. While this
exhibit in past years has been made
by few Of the larger sheep growers
the present plan is to make an ex.
hibit of the sheep gathered from all
of the bands of sheep in the Terri
tory.
This will give visitors to the Fair
an opportunity to see and compare
the relative merits Of four different
types Of fine wool sheep and over
twelve different breeds Of the NUT

An Inspiration

They were very happy, this loving
pair of Stafford newly-weds. They
went to housekeeping md ais also kept
q kitchen garden.
Darling said the young hus'
band, "as 7 came through the gar
den I saw some asparagus ready f9E
cooking. Would yoq care to wander
forth and gather the first fruits 81
the season with your own dear
hands?'' ~
Yes, she would love to do so,
only--and this she dare not confess =
she really didn't know asparagus
from beetroot. If she went alone
she might betray her horrible
ignorance. '
And then an inspiration came.
Il know what we'll do, Dearest
she cried enthusiastically. We'll &c
out together. You shall pluck the
asparagus and I'll hold the ladder!
