QUARRY VALUATION
REMAINS THE SAME

In the case OF the State ex-rel AmeTl-
can Refractories company VS.. rfanK-
lin johnson, clerk of the town OF Bar
aboo, Judge James O'Neill has sus-
tanned the assessor and the board OF
review OF the town of Baraboo as to Inc
valuation of the property belonging 10
the corporation at Devils Lake. Tae
action wssaa certiorarI proceeding, re-
viewing the work of the board at the
time the final valuation was fixed.
The board placed a valuation OF
$4,000 upon The property and Superin-
tendent Cheney for the corporation
testified that it was not worth more
taan $4,000 The court found that
the asses, ment made by the assessor
and confirmed by the board OF review
is presumed 10 be correct. The burden
is on the property owner 20 impeach
the assessment and the court found
that the testimony of the OH cial was
not sufficient to warrant reduction.
It will be recalled that during the
condemnation proceedings the corpo-
ration officials and experts testified the
land was worth $50 700 or more and
the jury placed valuation upon it of
$27, 600. The assessor placed his valu-
alton according to the rules and it is
difficult matter to get around it under
the circumstances. The valuation as
fixed by the jury could not be given In
evidence when taken before Judge
O'Neill, no wever. The rules of the
law do not permit such procedure.
The taxes have not been paid on the
property. pending this action. aod the
tax payers have been anxious rs
to the outcome of the case.
John A. Malone is the attorney for
the town OF Baraboo and the court
complimented him on the excellence
of the brief presented in the case.

improved Method Of Farmln

Great interest ia taken In France
just now In new method by which
the yield Of crops per acre 10 enor-
mously increased. In one test case
the increase Of wheat has been three
times above that grown in similar
soil in the same neighborhood.
The remarkable value of the meth
cd Is indicated by the statement that
1t has made twenty grains of wheat
produce 100000 in one year.
The method consists in preparing
seed beds in widely spaced lines on
very mellow land; then at the end
of two months dividing the tufts
springing from each grain. replanting
each Of these rooted shoots thus de-
tached, and finally in hoeing and
earthing up these new plants many
time In such manner as to provoke
at all the points brought into inti-
mate contact with the earth the
growth of numerous adventitious
shoots, each of which bear an ear.
