The property was formerly a
part of the L. N. Baldwin estate.
Originally 1t was owned by the
Vaughns, aud after Judge Bald
win became owner it was named
"Chicago." 1t is a good place,
the land lying we'll for machine
cultivation.
when the Baldwin estate was
being settled the place was bought
by J. L. Lord. Mr.. Lord sold it
to the Indiana Stock Farms Co.,
with J. j. Jones as manager, and
later Mr.. HeadIy became the tent
ative owner, with view of selling.
Every time the property has
changed hands it has been at an
increased price. 1t is an attract
i've place, and is an easy seller.
Judge Bedford and son Thomas
Bedford have already taken pos.
session of the place. Both left
this week for their Missouri home
to move their stock and farm ma.
chinery to their new possession.
Mr.. ]. ]. Jones, who was oc
cupying the place with his family

this condition can be somewhat
overcome with favorable harvest
ing season.

When this important case was
reported to Mr.. G. F. Willis,
Southern Distributor of Tanlac, at
his Atlanta office, he said:
Endorsements like this leave
nothing further to be dope In es-
tabllshing the merits of this great

about it, and especially Is this true

TOWNS FINANCES.
Writer Believes Improvements will
Increase Population.

AANASNS$ sAAe@Ns
In view of the improvements
now manifest In our city. as well
as in view of other improvements
hereafter to be considered, In a
series of articles. it is important,
at the outset, to know exactly how
we stand financially. Hence, In
this first, of a>series of articles, a
view OF the STATUS of the materi-
al affairs of the city Is given.
1st. The total assessment Of
property, within the corporate
limits, for year 1916, is about
5000, 900. In 1907 it was 81 ,2oo.-
600. 1t appears, then, that there
has been a falling off In assessed
values, within nine years.of $500,
900. To what Is this attributable
Generally and In fact 1t Is largely
due to crop pests. which lowered
production of cotton. In part. to
closing of several stores. Chiefly
to escape from assessment of con-
siderable property which ought to
be on roll.
2nd. The tax levy at present Is
TEN MILLS, distributed as fol-
lows: Two and one quarter mills
for payment of bonds along with
interest on same. Two and one
quarter mills to school purposes.
One half mill to FIRE department.
Five mills for general purposes.
Thus, the total levy on assessed
values is about $4,000 of which
So, ,o2s, exclusive of the state fund,
goes to city schools. To outstand-
ing city bonds $2o25. To FIRE de-
yartment $3.50, To general fund,
for all other purposes, $3.50 The
actual revenue, though, from all
sources, is SI5,57o.58, including
therein $1,000 derived from the
state distributive fund for city
schools. The difference. between
tax levy and actual revenue. inde-
pendent of school distributive fund,
is S.. 5.6oS.55. This amount comes
from privilege tax, fines, polls,
power house and street tax.
3rd. The bonded indebtedness Of
the city. resulting chiefly from In
stallation Of the waterworks and
electric light plant was. January
I, 1907, $47, $50. BY excellent
management this bonded debt has
been reduced to s3I .I8o, an aver
age Of s., 900 annually. The cost
of laying new sidewalks. all pay
able. except interest, by adjoining
property holders. at rate Of one
tenth annually, Is s7,2 OF this
amount s72o is payable each year
for ten years. At expiration oil
Ten years the debt is to be can
elled.
