to close the local market for the sea-

Although the crop in this vicinity
has not been up to the standard this

by the Richmond houses has been
very gratifying to all the growers. All
records for high prices and amount of
money paid to the farmers has been
broken and the Home and Madison
Houses are both to be congratulated
on the successful season they have
conducted.

MADISON TAX RAISE
COMES UP WEDNESDAY
Judge Price Gets Hearing At Frank
fort Put Off So Fiscal Court May
Send Committee To Protest

In view of the fact that the Fiscal
Court meets in regular monthly ses-
ssion Tuesday, County Judge w. K.
Price has secured extension of the
time in which Madison may send a
delegation before the State Tax Com
mission to protest against the $4,50O,-
900 increase which that body has been
been ordered to place upon the as
sessment of this county Madison was
notified to send a delegation Monday
If she cared to protest but Judge Price
got the date extended to Wednesday.
He did this in order that the mem
bers Of the Fiscal Court, who are in
charge Of the financial affairs Of the
county may make plans to &c them
selves If they wish. Judge Price
thought perhaps the court might wish
to name delegation. If it does not,
he will probably do so himself.
Strong proptests are being heard on
all sides at the action Of the State
Tax Commission. The addition of this
amount to the county's assessment
will mean the addition of about ten
million dollars to the assessment Of
Madison within the past two years.
Many taxpayers desire to call the at
tention Of the taxing authorities to
the fact that about half of Madison
county is composed of "knobs" and
hills, especially in the southern sec
ton Of the county, and yet the State
Tax Board undoubtedly appears to
think that all of Madison is blue grass
land, and should be assessed at blue
grass land figures.
It has been suggested that if the
= payers wish anything done about
the mater, they should meet with the
Fiscal Court Tuesday and see that a
strong delegation of representative
citizens and taxpayers is sent to
Frankfort on Wednesday.
