COMMISSIONERS IN SESSION

The Board OF County Commission
ers met in regular monthly session
at the Court House Tuesday Of this
week with Commissioners Mckay.
West and Nelson in attendance.
The matter Of leasing the poor
farm was taken up by the Board. The
Farm was under lease to Mrs. Fred
Johnson until Jan. 1, next. and since
the death Of Mrs. Johnson recently.
Mr.. Johnson has been conducting the
farm. The Board decided to transfer
the lease running to Mrs. Fred John
son to Mr.. Fred Johnson.
The Board today Is considering the
levy that will be necessary to con-
duct the affairs Of the county for
the coming year. The state levy this
yea is slightly less than last years
levy. However, al extra levy Of "
mill to pay interest on road bonds
will bring the total levy for state
purposes a fraction mill higher than
in 1920. The county levy this year
will be less than last year. The levy
for 1920 was 4.45 mills while the
levy this year will probably be but
4.43 mills.
Dorsey Kerr and CHS. Richards

1ec'ion with some road matters re-
