AUDITOR WINGER is BUSY.
Value of Farm Stock Raised by the
Executive Council.

The state executive council has ad-
vised County Auditor Oscar Winger
to revise the assessment as taken
in Winneshiek last spring, raising the
values Of cattle, horses, mules, hogs
and sheep. The raise is as follows:
On one year old colts 4 per cent.
They were assessed at S4S before.
Two year olds are raised to ten per
cent, horses, three years or older ten
per cent, stations 80 per cent, mules
q, cattle in feeding 3S, heifers one
year old IL per cent, two year olds
16, cows u, steers one year old II,
two year olds 26, three year olds p,
bulls 20, swine Go per cent, and
sheep 10. The raise is quite large.
The valuation, for instance of one
year old colts was formerly $4S, now
it has been raised to $50. Swine were
S6.17, and now they will be valued at
about $40.
The work of revising the assess
ments requires an immense amount
of work and Auditor Winger and
Deputy Todd will be compelled to
put in month of extra work in max
ing the revisions. They will have TO
90 through the books fifteen times,
and We think with the terrific heat
that has been on they will earn their
salary alright with this extra work
heaped Oh their shoulders.
The value OF real estate was not
changed.
