Wiley M. Daniels appeared before

in College addition to Mountain
Home the valuation for the year

that his request involved a matter
of equalization of real property and
the law provided that the equaliza-
ton of the value of real property is
to be done from the fourth Monday
of June to the fourth Monday of
July of each year and therefore they
were unable to grant his request at
this time.
Clay Groefsema appeared before
the Board stating that there was an
error in the valuation and classified
ton of his real property described
in tax receipt No. 1887 for the year
1928 as the same was classified as
agricultural and valued at 100000.
Chris Hendricks, deputy assessor,
verified Mr.. Groefsema's statement
and advised the Board that the prop
erty should be classified as grazing
and the value thereof should be $500
for the 40 acres in place of $4,000.
Thereupon the Board ordered that
the assessment of John and Clay
Groefsema for the year 1928 as de-
scribed in tax receipt No. 1887 be
and the same hereby is ordered cor
rected to read 40 acres grazing land
and the assessment thereof to be
SOM in nlace of $1,000
