The coun- ty road tax levied by the CountyBoard of Equalization independent of the state road tax is .0S cents on the $100 valuation. This will raise $10,000.00 which added to 17,500.00 will estab- fish a county road fund amounting to $27,500.00. To this amount can be added the annual road tax collected from each individual in the county amounting to approximately $S,000.- % and we have the magnificent sum of S35, 100000 to be expended on the building and repair of roads within the county of Greenlee for the year 1912-13
