tBOARD OF EQUALIZATION
IS CONSIDERING TAX
ROLL VALUATIONS


For the past week the board III
eounty commissioners has been meet
ing at the court house as a board OF
equalization for the purpose of check
ing over the tax roll of 1920 with the
county assessor and making such ad-
iustments in the assessed valuation
of taxable property as they may deem
equitable.
Very few raises have been made by
the board, the majority OF adjust
ments being personal property valua-
tions added to individual assessments
which we're omitted by the taxpayer
in the statement to the county as
SCISSOR
Every name on the tax roll will be
examined by the board and the tax
valuation compared with that of last
year will be taken into consideration
in making adjustments. The work
has made it necessary for the men,
bers of the board and the county as
SCISSOR to work each day from 10 a.
IN. until 5 O'Clock in the evening to
complete the investigation of about
half CT the tax roll. The meetings
will continue until the second Mon
day of the month, August 9, which is
the time set by statute.
The changes in valuation recon-
mended by the board were certified
to County Clerk Oldfleld yesterday
and notices we're sent TO the individ-
uals affected, setting the time as Fri
day, August 6, when the board OF
equalization would be ready to enter
tain any OBJ lection which the taxpayer
might offer TO show why the proposed
raise in valuation should not be
made.
