clemency of the weather almost every

HEALTH ASSOCIATION
COMBATS SCARLET FEVER

The members of the Moscow branch
of the Latah County Health associ-
alton, the members of which are
especially interested in keeping down
any epidemic among the children of
the public schools, wish to call at
tention again to the need of eXerciS-
ing the greatest care in connection
with the scarlet fever, which has been
more or less prevalent in the city for
the past six weeks. With the com
ing of cold weather the disease is
likely to become severe, and while
there have as yet been no serious
cases, the leaders in the association
work wish to impress upon parents
the need of being especially careful
now, and to use every precaution to
prevent further spread of the di-
sease.
Both the county and city health
officers are doing all in their power
to curb the disease and have the CO.
operation of local physicians. The
important thing is for parents to call
a physician when their children are
taken sick, so that it may be determ-
ined without delay whether they have
the scarlet fever.

FORD COMPANY EXTENDS
IT'S SALE ORGANIZATION

Detroit-Extension of the Ford
Motor company's sales and service
organization during the year has been
rather remarkable and is due, of
course, to the continually increasing
demand for Ford products. There
have been 432 new dealers appointed
since January 1, bringing the total
number of authorized dealers in the
United States up to 9,44S. the great
est retail sales organization ever
known. Authorized service stations
also have been steadily increased in
order to afford the best possible serv-
Ice to the constantly growing number
of Ford owners. At present the Ford
service stations total around $4,000
In foreign countries there are $500
authorized Ford dealers and 1000

TAXES CONFRONT
PROPERTY OWNERS
TREASURER MAILS OUT NOTICES
WILL BE DELINQUENT
DECEMBER "a

County treasurer and tax collector,
Mrs. Audrey Herington, has finished
mailing out tax notices to the tax
payers of Latah county for the year
1928. The total real property valu-
alton, including exemptions and pub
lie utilities, is $1S,4S5, ,613; and the
total amount of taxes computed on
this valuation is $611, $40.
All taxes extended on the real
property assessment roll are payable
to the tax collector without penalty,
ON and after the fourth Monday of
November and prior to the fourth
Monday of December of each year.
Taxes become delinquent after the
latter date and a penalty of per
cent is then added. This does not
include tax assessment on personal
property, which roll is made up by
the county assessor and submitted to
the board of county commissioners
which will convene as a board of
equalization for that purpose on the
first Monday in December. This tax
on purely personal property is col
lected when the property is assessed,
any time during the year irrespective
of the other real property tax.
All taxes are payable in two in
stallments, the first of which becomes
due on the fourth Monday in Novem-
ber, and the remaining half on the
fourth Monday in June of the fol-
lowing year. With every tax notice
sent out a slip was enclosed, showing
the different tax levies and their
amounts. By far the largest per-
centage of the tax levy comes from
the assessment for highway districts.
schools, and incorporated towns.
The state board of equalization,
which passes on the property valu-
alton submitted by the county assess
or, has raised that valuation on GER
tain classes of property. Following
are the classes and the approximate
percentage which they were raised:
Merchandise, 10 per cent; lumber, 10
per cent; agricultural land, IL per
cent; timber, 10 per cent; business
lots per cent; and resident lots,
5 per cent.

Hay to Be Reclassified

Washington-(A. P0-Federal hay
grades are to be simplified under a
survey ordered by the Department of
Agriculture to bring about reduc-
ton in the number of classes and
grades and simpler method of de-
termining grade. Maruice Meier, of
Fort Wayne, Ind, has been named
consulting specialist to advise in the
work.
Under the simplified system, class
es of hay will be determined as here
tofore by the percentage of grasses

FORESTRY BUREAU
URGED FOR CITY
Regulation Of Tree Planting
Sought.

A city department of forestry regu-
lating the planting of all trees along
city streets was proposed at the park
board meeting today. Attorneys will
investigate the legality of the step to
determine whether 9 special act of
the Legislature is needed
With the suggestio. Charles A.
Bookwalter, president OF the park
board, proposed that the city estab-
lish another nursery, where all types
of trees should be cultivated for free
use of property owners. The city
now owns a nursery where trees for
park purposes are grown.
The regulated tree planting is
aimed to attain uniformity Of trees
along city streets. Instead Of
variety of sizes, one certain type
would be planted on one street, max
ing a solid row of naples. efms, or
other types. Property owners then
would be able to obtain the kind
specified by the city free of charge
at the nursery.
Bookwalter explained that the idea
has been developed at Newark,
N. ]. to hold national attention on
the beauty and uniforuslty Of shade
trees on streets. q

Said to Be Too Small.

George H. Healey. clerk Of the State

General L. S. Lesh to render an opin-
ion on a difficult problem which has
arisen in connection with the coming
State printing contract. Formerly,
printing was paid for from a general
appropriation. Departments now have
their separate appropriations. They
are said to be too small. Healey said
one of these methods would have to
be employed:
1. Board Of finance authorize trans
fers from other funds.
2. Board of public printing author
ize printing out Of general printing
appropriation
8. Contractors be induced to wait
for payments until authorized by the
