TAX COMMISSIONERS MEET
DOUGLAS COUNY FARMERS

Saturday afternoon at Minden
the State Tax Commission met with
some of the heavy taxpayers to dis
cuss the raising of the. assessed
valuation of farm property in this
county. No general notice of the
meeting was given. consequently
many taxpayers were not present.
The State Tax Commission an
nounced their belief that horizon
tai raise of rs per cent should be
made on all farm property in this
county. 1t was their belief that
such raise was necessary to place
Douglas on an equal footing with
other counties in the matter of bear
ing the burden of the expense of
maintaining the state government.
In other words it is the duty of
the commission to advance the
values of land in this state about
50 800, 900 to prevent the state gov
ernment going QUITO a script basis.
The matter of the 25 per cent
raise in this county was quite
thoroughly discussed and the tax
payers present put forth logical
reasons why such an advance would
be beyond the bounds of reason and
consequently unjust. They showed
that it costs the farmer of this
Valley 81 per ton more to market
his hay than it dose the farmer of
Humbolt. Lyon or other counties,
because of additional freight. This
make difference of about $40 per
to the earning power of one acre of
of alfalfa land. The Douglas farm
er receives II cents a day for feed
ing beef cattle while farmers near
er the main line receive Ia cents.
This makes difference about 81 in
the earning power of an acre of
land. 1t as shown that this class
of land had been taxed at $33 per
acre for years past in Douglas while
in other counties where the same
class of land had a greater earning
power, has been assessed at a much

ARTESIAN FLOW
ENCOUNTERED

At the Hudson ranch in Smith
Valley, owned by the Plymouth
company, in which VIM. Dressler
and Richard Kirman are the princi-
pal owners, an artesian flow was
struck this week at the depth of so
feet. The flow was ten gallons per
minute. The well is to driven to a
much greater depth and the indica-
tions are that big flow will be en-
countered. This but one of many
wells to be drilled by the Plymouth
company on their extensive holdings
in Smith Valley. The Beers ma
chine is engaged in drilling the

Fay $ Home
Completed

The beautiful new home of M. E.
Fay at Fairview is now about COM
pleted.
On the very ground where the
old home stood and occupied by
Mr.. and Mrs. Fay for many years.
they have erected one of the finest
country residences to be found in
the state.
The building is of brick and has
nine rooms, with pantry and two
baths. The rooms are finished in
imitation fumed oak, rubbed to q
satin finish. The sand finished walls
are tinted in rich soft colors which
are now so popular. The bath
rooms are enameled in white and
xlogether the new home is elegant
and reflects much credit to the
workmanship of those employed in
its construction. The plans of tie
new home were drawn up by Mr..
and Mrs. Fay without the aid of an
artitect and their ability in this line
is marked by originality and know
ledge of of what is required for
comfortable home.

lower figure.
The valuation of Carson Valley
land was thoroughly discussed. The
members of the tax commission
understood that alfalfa land was
selling for $3.50 per acre. A. Jen-
sen, who bought the Eel ranch,
was present and gave a compre-
hensive understanding. Figuring
the land alone the deal figured $3.50
per acre. However, when he had
disposed of crops, stock, etc. that
were included in the sale, the land
cost Sl36.50 cents per acre. For an
example, one farm. that does not
clear $1,000 a year could not be
bought for $4,000. That is not the
cash value of the ranch; it is a
ficticious value set by the owner,
because the place is really not for
sale. There are dozens of farms
here that kings ransom could
not buy. They are not only farms,
but farm homes, owned by men that
would not be content. to live any
where else but Carson Valley.
The commission believed that tie
cash valuation of ranch should be
governed by what a bank would
loan. 1t was cited that an indus
trious man, known as money MAX
er, could borrow more money on a
given piece of land than could man
known to shiftless and a bad manag-
er. The only way to arrive at the
true valuation of ranch property
is to consider its earning power.
The taxpayers advanced every
logical arguement at their command
to convince the commission that a
25 per cent raise would be unjust
and it is believed that the commits
sion has a better understanding
of the condition here than they
possessed before their visit.
The board announced that the
matter would be taken under adj
visement.:
