Hot in Coconino. Then the question of the assessment upon lumber and lum- l Der mills and growing timber was l taken up. Following this the matter
 of sheep and cattle brought out the 1 fact that in common with many oth- CTS the affidavits furnished by the property owners in connection with | numbers and values are often useless
 and that the board of equalization of 1 the county often has to fix the value and number.
 It was brought out that the United
 States forest officials assisted the county officials assisted the county boards in determining the number of sheep and cattle, which is work of great value to the board. By this means they can determine pretty nearly what ought to be assessed to each owner
