TREDINNICk
SHEDS LIGHT
ON TAXES
County Pays Lowest
State Tax of Any.
EQUALIZATION METHODS

CA discussion of equalization and
cost of operation and maintenance
| by r. A. Tredennick, before the Grant
county board, 1921. relating to tax
able property in Grant county for the
year 1921
Three separate and distinct equal
izations are made each year. The first
equalization is called the state equal
| iZation after the state tax HAS been
determined. 1t is necessary to appor-
ton that tax among the various coun-
ties in the state on the basi of true
value. This true value is determined
by the state tax commission by the aid
of the assessor of incomes.
The second equalization is about to
be completed by the county board.
To the state tax above mentioned
must be added whatever you see fit to
levy for county purposes. After you
have made your levy it will be neces-
sary for the county clerk of this coun-
ty to apportion the state and county
tax among the taxing districts within
the county, on a basis of your esti-
mated true values. One purpose of
this report is to present to you as ac-
!
true values of all property in each
assessment district
The third equalization with which
we are not concerned at present is
made by the assessor and the local
board of review after the state and
county tax has been apportioned
among the various taxing districts.
Each district adds it's levy for local
ond cohnn1 nurnncaC Tho c1l71 of
these three taxes is then appOrtioned
among the tax payers within each
district, on the basis of the local as
sessment.
Cost of Operation and Maintenance
The cost of operation and main
tenance for Grant county for the year
1920 was the lowest of any county in
the state.
The total cost of operation and
maintenance was $3.50 ,z90.
General government -- $22.949
Protection of person and property
Health and Sanitation --- 1920
Highways and Bridges --- 164,957
Education ------------ 10,377
Charities and Corrections 49, 60,361
The cost per capita of operation and
maintenance was $500.
Facts are informing only by COM
parison We find the cost of opera
ton and maintenance q great deal
higher in the surrounding counties.
For instance the cost per capita in
Iowa county was -------.--- 1895
Green county 11.0S
Crawford county ------------ ISL
Richland county ------------ 9.05
Villas county -------------- 1929
Lafayette county -------------- 7.61
1t is now generally recognized that
facts as to the cost of work done and
facts as to the results obtained are
necessary to insure the most capable
administration of governmental at

 "The greatest danger is pneumonia and this is the season in which pneu- monia is more prevalent and danger ous During the past week there were many cases of pneumonia, following measles reported to this office. The death rate is very high. These deaths are absolutely preventable and should hot occur. They only occur as re- suit of improper care. Parents and guardians having charge of children, should on the first sign of the disease place the child in bed, in well-ven- tilated warm room. Shade the eyes from direct light, call a physician, then keep the patient in bed until the eruption has fully disappeared. The general tendency is to permit patients to get up too soon and expose them selves. We should realize that measles is a dangerous disease, and as such, the patient should receive the best of care until thoroly we'll"
