COMMISSIONERS ENDORSE
ASSESSORS FIGURES

The county commissioners on Fri
day concluded their work as a board
OF equalization on the valuation plac-
ed on property in Fremont county
by Assessor Ia. J. Craig upon which
to predicate the taxes for 1914. Dur
ing their sessions as an equalizing
body the commissioners examined
the entire assessment rolls of the
county. amounting in the aggregate
to between five and six thousand
schedules. and ir only a few instanc-
es were any alterations made in Mr..
Craigs figures. The changes were of
minor importance and did not appre-
ciably affect the total assessment.
The reason for the unusual scrutiny
of the assessment made by Mr. Craig
and his as 'istants last spring was
inspired by the recent order of the
state tax commission that the total
assessed valuation of Fremont coun-
ty property be increased $3.50. 400
over and above the figures returned
by the assessors office. The very
careful examination made by the
commissioners OF the assessment
rolls convinced them that Mr.. Craig
assessed the property Of the county
on a perfectly fair and equitable basis
as between individuals. They also ex-
press themselves as satisfied that he
followed the rules OF the tax com
mission as closely as possible and
there is no reason or warrant why
any addition should be made to his
valuation of property in this county.
The commissioners feel that the
assessment made by Mr.. Craig in
this county is a thorough and impair
tial one and tha1 their only course
under the circumstances is to let the
tax commission make the raise II one
has TO be made. The commissioners
realize that an Injustice is being done
the people OF this county as well rs
in all other section OF Colorado. by
the state tax commission in arbitra-
rily raising the assessments made
by those empowered by vote OF the
people to make the valuations.
The assessment for 1914 as made
by Mr. Craig is S12.6ss.2iO To this
he tax commission had added sl,6so.
too Above and beyond all this the
commission has assessed transporta-
ion and other corporations operating
N this county s5.757.795 The coun-
y assessors are not permitted under
The statutes to fix the valuation for
'axable purposes on property of
such classes OF corporations. It Is a
somewhat notable fact that the as
sessment made by the tax commits
sion on the property OF corporations
IN this county is sssO.00O less than
the valuation placed on Il last year.

ADVISES HERD or
REGISTERED COWS

A. p. Nelson is urging he purchase
by the county commissioners of n few
registered dairy cows OF the Jersey
or Guernsey breed for the county
poor farm as an encouragement for
better strain OF milk cattle In this
section OF the Arkansas valley. Mr..
Nelson emphasizes the fact that the
expense OF maintaining a herd Of
thoroughbred cows would be no great
er than the one incurred In keeping
a corresponding number OF nondes-
cripts and that such a step would be
an incentive to people generally to
raise the standard OF their dairy cat
tie.
The county farms and agricultural
lands conected with such institutions
throughout the eastern states are
stocked with the finest milk COWS
procurable and MIR. Nelson thinks
that such plan should be adopted
here and there is much OF logic and
good sense in his contention. The
primary outlay in securing n number
OF high class cattle for use on the
county farm would. OF course. be
greater than would result from buy
ing low grade ones. but the adyantag-
es would more than Offset the differ
ence in price. TO say nothing OF the
