TAXR0LLSS SHOW
A DECREASE

With the total for one county sub
ject to possible slight correction the
assessed total valuation for Nevada
is $204 ,6S2, ,209 for the year 1921, ac-
cording to compilation of the assess
ment rolls turned into the office of
Secretary f. N. Fletcher of the tax
commission. says the Carson News
This is a decrease of $S,739,1S9 from
the 1921 final assessed valuation upon
which the counties made tax settle
ments with the state controller
The increases returned were $77,-
$50 for Clark, s29,092 for Eureka, $7O,-
1856 for Lyon. sS3.772 for Ormsby, $29,-
s7s for Storey. and sl9,S5O for Wa
shoe county.
Decreases were returned by the as
SCISSORS as follows: 1881 for
Churchill; $46.731 for Douglas; $2,-
163.-461 for Elko; $1.6O4,643 for Es-
meralda, $653,045 for Humboldt; $226,-
149 for Lander; about $S9,544 for
Lincoln; 164,O44 for Mineral; $1.427,-
176 for Nye; $37 .S41 for Pershing. and
$2.945,s72 for White Pine.
Lyon county's large increase Is said
to be due largely TO higher valuations
placed upon real estate.
The county returning the largest
decrease is White Pine. This is MAIN
ly because of the shutting down of
copper mining operations in addition
to unfavorable conditions surrounding
the livestock industry.
Elko county stands second in de-
creased total valuation. In this coun-
ty land valuations are about s600,-
900 lower than last year. The main
part of the balance of the decrese
Is because of lower livestock yalua-
tions.
Emseralda countys decrease of ST.
604, 643 shows a falling off of more
than twenty-eight per cent from the
1920 assessed valuation. More than
100000 of the difference, however
Is due to abandonment of the high
valuation formerly placed upon the
Nevada California Power Company
property and upon which high valua-
tion taxes were never paid
Although Nye county totals show
drop of sl,427176 from the 1920 fig
ures the decrease is surprisingly
small when the difference In the as
sessed valuation of the Nevada-Cali-
fornia Power Company. practical sus-
pension of mining operations over
long period and the uniavorable live
stick conditions are taken into ac-
count.
In spite OF the fact that the assessed
valuation of s204. $50 .209 returned b,
the assessors is $1,317,701 short of the
estimated 100000 valuation upon
which the legislature the last night
of the session fixed a state tax rate Of
sixty cents, state officers do not be.
iieve that the state board of equaliza-
tion will be called upon to make any
increases in property values in or
der to raise sufficient revenue to pay
the expense OF the state government
and to provide for all appropriations
The situation has been relieved by
the collection of the Miller inheritance
taxes. Other money not counted upoi
when the legislature acted is that ac.
cruing to the state through settlement
of the litigation over taxes on rail-
road lands In Pershing, Humboldt
Churchill. and Lyon counties, also
settlement of the tax claims against
the Nevada California Power com
pany. These funds, 1t is declared, will
cause of the unanticipated low total
assessed valuation for the state.

 Molly Cow turned her head around and saw a fly upon her back. Then she swished her tail and drove the fly away. It came back again, but this time Molly Cow didn't bother about it.

 We've felt the nice warm air. But we haven't gone forth to meet the spring. We haven't run along to see 1t as soon as we could.
 We waited until 1t came to us, as all creatures should do who want to be quiet and peaceful as we are.

 We don't like to go off running and trotting like horses do.
 We don't care to go South in the winter and North in the summer as the birds do. We don't care to dig holes for ourselves In the ground and go to sleep all winter as the wood- chucks do.

WONDERS OF AMERICA
AMERICAN CAMPANILE
By yT.T.MAxEY

THE records of past ages are | authority for the fact that cam paniles or bell towers became very common in Italy and especially in Rome between the eighth and elev- enth centuries. Almost everybody has at some time seen a picture of that famous old one of old St. Marks Church In Venice.
 On the other hand, campaniles are rarely seen In the United States now a-days and yet California boasts what is perhaps the most splendid example of bell tower on the western hemiS- phere.
 It is one of the most-pleasing and graceful architectural structures one can hope to look upon and Is located In the grounds of the University of Cal ifornia, at Berkeley. The gift of Mrs. Sater, it cost about $20O,0O0, is BOP feet high, approximately 36 feet square and is construetedAof California gran ite, with the exception of the pyramid ally-shaped top-piece which is of white marble.
 Within the tower is an immense clock and a chime of twelve beautiful ly-toned bells. These precious bells were safely transported through the submarine-infested waters of the Att lantic. on their journey from the old world, during the earlier days of the world war.
 These bells, also the gift of Mrs. Sater, range in weight from 349 to AIS pounds. The tenor or largest bell carries the following inscription. written especially for the purpose by Professor Flagg of the university:
 We ring, we chime. we toll;
 Lend ye the silent part,
 Some answer in the heart.
 Some echo in the soul"
