Lands Assessed High

One OF the best proofs that could
be offered that lands in Garrard coun-
~ are being assessed at practically
their cash value, il proven in the
sale Of the Spoonamore farm and
the Roy Moberly farm, both Of
which were sold recently under the
hammer.
The Moberly farm Of 1875 acres
was assessed at sli5 an acre and
brought under the hammer sl27 an
acre. The Spoonamore farm Of
Sls acres Assessed at sil7 an acre.
brought at public auction last Satur-
day, si3l an acre. Yet the State
Tax Commission thinks that am ad-
ditional 10 per cent should be added.
This would be unfair indeed.
