as may be definitely fixed by law.
Four different official bodies hav,
to do with fixing the amount OF the ia,
levy each year-the state, the county
the town, village or. city, and th'
school district.
The state rate for general revenue
purposes is determined by the legisla
ture and may vary from year to year
according to the needs of the state
the levy for such purpose this year
being one and nine tenth mills. The
total state levy this year for oil pur-
poses, including the one mill school
tax, 10 1888 mills.
County taxes, except as otherwise
provided 10 case of counties having
more than 10000 population, are
levied by the county board at it
meeting in July Of each year, and are
based upon 40 itemized statement Of
the estimated expenses for the ensuing
year, which statement must be includ-
ed in the published proceedings Of

The amounts OF the different taxes
30 determined must be certified to the
county auditor on or before October

makes the levy accordingly.
There are, however, certain limita-
lions on the amount of taxes that
may be levied for different purposes
in any one year.
Except where county commissioners,
township supervisors or corporate
authorities of any city, town, village
or school district are authorized by
special law to levy any tax, the
that may be levied are limi-
ed as follows: .-.
Counties whose taxable valuation is
II ,O00, 600 or more, may not levy
