Each county received q, 1,614.55 as, it's share of the tax for the month.
 The gasolin, tax should prove an i'm portant source of revenue for roads in the smaller counties, and, according to reports, its benefit ia already felt by some of these counties, which receive as their share of the tax an amount out of all proportion to what they pay, as q result of the tax being equally di- vided among all 67 counties, with lief ferson sharing alike with the smallest county in the state.
