School Levy Adopted

School Levy Adopted
At the same time the county tax
levy was adopted, the commissioners
also adopted general county school
lery, compulsory by an act Of the last
legislature Of 3.4S mills. amounting
to s404.6SS.54. Last years levy was
2.94 mills and totalled $345,s40.S5.
The county commissioners have no
supervisory control over this general
school levy and are compelled to make
1t. The money Is distributed back
from the county treasures office to
the 124 school districts in the county
The law provides that the levy shall
be sufficient to pay to each school
district in the county $75 a month
for each teacher employed by the dis
trict, special teachers such a. instfut
nrs in domestic science and manual
training being excluded.
This law has the effect of a full
crew" bill for the school districts
and, as table being prepared by the
county assessors Office will show.
has resulted in the employment Of q
considerable number Of additional
teachers. Under the law districts
with large valuations and small
teaching forces have been penalized
and most of the districts so situated
have hastened to employ additional
teachers to avoid being penalized.
No Advertising Fund Promised
There is no advertising fund pro-
missed in the county levy for 1928 be-
cause there Is balance of $2,290
left nhexpended In the advertising
fund for 1922. The big decrease In
the road fund for 1923 has been made
possible by the paying off Of more
than s14O.00o registered road war
, rants during the current year. Weld
!, will be on a cash basis the first Of
the year. A large increase in the
poor fund was made necessary by
the tremendous drain on the fund
last winter and the even heavier de-
mand upon 1t anticipated this win
ter.
Th{ye is to be no scrimping OF the
\ highways despite the big cut Of the
HToad and bridge fund. The tentative
y budget for 1923 highway activities
II includes two new bridges across the
platte-East Evans and Wheeler
1.-TWO across the Poudre--at Farmers
h sspur and Windsor-and number Of
small structures thruout the county.
