Correspondent

AS the result of the severe cold
weather and the Christmas holiday,
Thursday, receipts of live stock were
materially smaller than in former
weeks, and prices ruled sharply high
er. The largest advance, $3.50, was
in fat lambs, and they made a new
high point for the year, selling up
to $500 today. Most classes of fat
steers are up 35 to so cents, and
butcher cattle are up 25 to 35 cents.
Calves advanced $1.00. Hog prices are
about 40 cents higher than a week
ago. The 10 dollar quotation has
been returned.
Receipts this week were 22,575 cat
tie, 1925 calves, 44,100 hogs, and A.
100 sheep, compared with 42,450 cat
tie, 1925 calves, 82,025 hogs, and A.
075 sheep last week, and 15,05O cat
tie, 1850 calves, 25,550 hogs, and 49,
400 sheep year ago.
Fat steers ruled 35 to SO cents high
er this week, mostly so cents up
There was a wide variety in the quail
ity of the offerings, and nothing with
outstanding finish was available. Some
choice 100 to 120 day fed yearlings
and medium weight steers sold at
$11 to $11.50. Strong weight steers
sold up to $1,000 and heavy steers
up to $10.25. The bulk of the 60 to

Recommending that sheep be taxed
on valuation of $5 per head instead
of $3.50 per head as last year, the
annual conference of tax assessors of
the state ended with brief meeting
last Friday at Phoenix.
The proceedings had been continued
over from Thursday, when the un-
usual number of matters submitted
to those attending forced an exten-
sion of the conference, which, it had
been expected, would be completed in
one brief days session.
Other recommendation made at the
concluding session of the meeting was
that the valuation of goats be fixed
at So per head, instead of $3.50 per
head as fixed for 1924, and that the
legislature enact a law permitting the
county assessors to retain so cents of
each automobile license plate fee col
lected by the respective offices.
The meeting declined to approve a
motion that was offered that merchan-
disc stocks be taxed at less than full
valuation, or that the stocks be valued
on the close of business on December
80 of each year. In support of the
latter contention, the merchants urg-
ed that their stocks on December 30
are at the highest, due to the holiday
season, and that valuations on that
date do not represent the average
values of the stocks carried the year
around.
The recommendation that lower
valuation be- placed on sheep followed
the appearance before the commits
CT nf hxy A
Johns and Harry Embach, president
and secretary, respectively of the Ari-
zona Wool Growers association. They
told the conference that the average
price realized by sheepmen per head
last year was less than S., the valua-
ton proposed for next year, and that
the sheep industry has experienced
several lean years." The lower
valuation, they declared, will aid ma
terially in restoring the industry to it's
normal place.
The reduction, it is estimated will
apply to about 100000 head of sheep,
more than half of which are in CO.
conino county. The aggregate loss
because of the reduction of valuations
of goats will be much smaller, it was
declared.
The recommendation to the legisla-
ture that the county assessors be per-
mitted to retain SO cents of each au-
tomobile license fee collected was
urged as a measure to aid the asses
sor in paying the expenses incidental
to the distribution of the plates. Au-
tomobiles are taxed on horsepower
basis, usually ranging from SIS to SIS
for the license, all of which must be
remitted to the secretary of state. The
money goes into the state highway
fund.
The recommendations made will
form the basis of valuations on which
the assessors will assemble data in
their respective counties. The values
will not be finally fixed until the state
tax commission meets in August.
