Valuations on improved farm
lands and city property may be
advanced by the state board Of
equalization in keeping with tt e
upward trend of taxes, says the
Boise Statesman, Tuesday OF
this week.
The equalization board Mon
day accepted as reported by
county assessors valuations OH
livestock and some other items,
but held up pending an investi,
cation, reports on real estate,
merchandise, sugar factories,
lumber, saw logs and machinery.
Afterwards the board members
held a conference in the govern
or's office when the matter G..
advancing valuations on farm
lands and city property was dis
cussed.
1t was decided at the confer
ence to await final action pend
ing the filing of a report by
John Robertson, a state tax
agent. In his report Mr.. Rob
ertson will show values of farm
land as returned each year by
the county assessors and posi-
bly, some figures on real valu-
ations.
Sees Injustice in Valuations
One board member said late
Monday afternoon that vs.lua-
tons on improved farm lands and
city property would either have
to be raised or assessments
made against the public utilities
would necessarily have to Le
lowered since an injustice is be-
, ing done the big corporations.
The board, it is understood, is
agreeable to an advance on i'm
proved farm lands, but the men,
bers are divided on the size OF
the advance.
, The members as a whole APP
pear to feel that the utilities are
!, bearing more than their proper
! Tomato share of the taxes.
With hardly an exception
every tax agent appearing be-
; fore the equalization board last
week insisted that valuations on
improved farm lands were zoo
' low, while the corporations, they
said were hpinp taxed too heaV-
lily.
}. Some Too High; Some Too Low.
+ Valuations on improved farm
lands in some counties are high,
+ but in the majority of the coun-
g ties valuations are too low, one
;, board member said.
g County assessors from all
n parts of the state appeared
before the equalization board
c last week. A large number
s insisted that valuations in Ada
t and Canyon counties were not
I high enough.
I The equalization board will
: probably vote today or Wednes-
: day on the matter of raising val
g uations returned by the county
t assessors on improved farm
y lands and city property. Owners
of dry farm land will probably
e escape with valuations returned
t. against them because of the poor
n crops harvested this season.

ELECTION HELD LEGAL.

Judge Wallace N. Scales of the
district court today rendered
decision holding to be valid the
SIT, 900 bond election in the Dou,
mecq highway district, on March

Legality of the bond election
was contested by F. L. Allen, D.

Crawford and G. H. Ryan, who
sought to restrain the commits.

of bonds. Of the $4,000 bond
issue, $4,000 was to be used t.

mouth of Whitebird creek, anC
$4,000 was for building a road
up the grade from the Salmon
river bridge to the DoumecC
plains.
The validity of the election
was attacked on several grounds
After ruling against the conten,
tions of the plaintiff on minor
points, Judge Scales, in his de-
cision, dwells on the matter OF
alleged illegal votes cast at the
election as follows:
"It is contended by the Plain
tiff that two-thirds of the legal
voters did not vote in favor Of
the bonds, and mentions the
names of six OF eight persons
who are alleged to have voted
illegally; and alleges generally
that other persons, not named
voted illegally; Ledbetter, one OF
the witnesses for the plaintiff
whom the court finds to be al.
illegal voter, stated that he
voted against the issuance OF
the bonds, the plaintiff contends
that his vote cannot be deducted
from those opposed to the bonds
because the issue was not raised
in the pleadings. The court
cannot agree with this conten,
ton. One of the allegations of
the complaint and of the amend.
ed complaint is that the issuance
of said bonds was never author

1t is reported that the 1918 crop of
Ohio is still being bought up, at prices
perhaps little higher than those that
have been prevailing. Little Dutch is

In Water street there is reported a
strong demand for Connecticut Broad
leaf, which has been moving rapidly
into the hands of the manufacturers.
In fact, many packers state that the
strikes in the cigar factories apparent
ly have had no effect upon the situa-
tion. Light wrappers and seconds
have already become very scarce. The
prices are somewhat above last years s
figures, but the quality and yield of the
new crop are said to be such as to more
than make up the difference. The
holders of Wisconsin binders have been
deeply gratified by the ease with which
the Connecticut binders have been alb
sorbed, for, they argue, this indicates
very good binder market, which Wis
consin will profit by when that tobacco

A good downpour of rain relieving
several weeks drouth came Tuesday
night of this week. Reports are that
the rain was general over the southern
portion of the state and there is no es-
timating the amount of benefit it will
be to the later portion of the growing
tobacco crop.
This week will see practically all the
early portion of the crop safely housed,
many growers having completed the
shedding before this date. That por-
tion which has been shielded is curing
most satisfactorily and has every indi-
cation of coming through with good
color. While the recent rain will be
the making of the late crops, it will be
some little time yet before the harvest
is completed as the rapid ripening sea-,
son is practically passed. The condi-
tion of the late tobacco in the field will
warrant letting it stand as near the
frost line as possible.
The dry, warm weather of the past
few weeks has brought cased goods
into matured condition that warrants
sampling earlier than the average sea-
son, some packers having begun draw
ing fresh samples. $.
If there has been any effort to con-
tract for the new crop it has been done
this week, but reports of any trans
actions have failed to reach us thus far.

HARTFORD. CT. Aug.

f1ARTFORD, CT., Aug. 20, 1919.
Tobacco farmers of Connecticut, from
now on, are going to be up against it
for labor in the tobacco fields gather
ing the harvest This is due to the
fact that the public schools open next
week, and the boys and girls VINO have
been helping harvest the tobacco will
be compelled to return to school.
As this is the best tobacco harvest,
both in quantity and quality of crop,
for many years in Connecticut, the
growers are naturally worried as to
just how they are going to solve the
labor problem. 1t means dollars to
them and dollars plenty in loss unless
they can get the necessary people to
work the plantations in harvest time
Some of the leading farmers think
that the price of labor will be increased
on account of this new condition. The
situation is much more embarrassing
than ever before at this time of year
because more children have worked In
the tobacco fields of this state this
summer than any previous summer in
tobacco history.
Prices of Connecticut grown tobaccos
are going to be higher this year than
last. This is the general opinion of to-
bacc0 brokers and growers In the state.
They claim that the fine quality of the
stock and the fact that none of the
standing crops have been damaged by
the hail storms this summer are good
reasons why the prices of tobacco to
the brokers will be advanced over that
Of last season, thereby making the cost
Of cigars higher to the consumer.
