MILLS FOR STATE
AND COUNTY PURPOSES.
COUNTY ROAD TAX S MILLS
Demands of the State Are Greatly
Reduced Over Previous Years,
Total of St3..10 Asked.

The Grants Pass taxpayer will
find his burden considerably light
ened this year over previous ones. as
the total levy made against him will
be l-2 mills under last year.
The county court has fixed the
levy for 1913 at 13 mills for state
and county, which added to the nine
mills of city levy and l-2 for school
district No. Z makes the total of 30h
as against 81 mills in 1919.
For the county outside of the in
corporated city of Grants Pass, the
levy will be the 13 mills for state
and county, and five mill road tax
levy, making the total Is mills aside
from the special school district lev
les.
Last year the state called on this
county for $4,000 as our share OF
the expenses of keeping the state
machinery in axle grease, but this
year the amount has been reduced
to $13,71s, A reduction of the city
tax levy from IL to 9 mills has also
been made.
The county court Is planning to
make the road work OF the coming
year count even better than in pre-
vious years A road master to have
general supervision over all of the
twenty districts has been appointed,
thus guaranteeing uniformity In
the construction work. The county
was to a heavy expense last season
in the purchase of expensive road
making machinery, but having this
on hand, the available cash can all
go into the highways.
