Cattle-Receipts were light again today,
about $500 head and the four days sup
ply has been fully 10000 smaller than
last week Largely on account of the lin
tied offerings the fat cattle market
showed further improvement today the
yearlings and handyweight beeves finding
ready sale at prices strong to a quarter
higher. Heavy cattle were not much
sought after and prices showed little inn
rrUvement compared with wednesday.
There was good inquiry for cows and
heifers at prices strong to quarter and
the general market for desirable steers
and butcher stock is 25G50c higher than
it wac at the low time last week. Bust
ness in stockers and feeders was rather
light and prices stronger, about 2S95oc

ALLEN RECEIVES
REFUND NOTICE
FOR STATE TAXES

County Treasurer Charles Allen has
received authorization and direction
for making the Is per cent refund OF
general state taxes to taxpayers of
this county from Geo. E. Wallace,
state tax commissioner.
County treaSurerS OF the state are
in a quandary as to whether to make
notation of the refund on the tax re-
ceipt or on the books. The refund
will necessitate the altering of all fig
ures relative to the general state tax
and will incur an enormous amount
of work.
instruction received by Treasurer
Allen requires that he remit to each
tax payer at time Of paying taxes, 26
per cent of the amount levied and
due from the taxpayer for state gen
eral purposes. Notation must be made
of the total original amount Of state
tax, 25 per cent of general fund be-
ing deducted as provided by House
Bill No. SO and total state tax collect
ed.
AS two to three hundred county
taxpayers have already paid their
taxes Mr.. Allen will have to refund
the 25 per cent to those people and
from now on deduct that amount
from the taxes paid in. 1t is probable
that county treasurers of the state
will wait until a uniform system for
| the whole state has been perfected be-
fore any definite action is taken.
