personal property tax payers. The
State Bank and Trust company is
second with $1,s61.S8. No other firms
or individuals in Redwood Falls will

than $1,000 although the Citizens
State bank is close third with tax
bill of $S61.67.
State law requires that the tax list
for any given community be publish
ed in the newspaper nearest that
community. Since several commune
ties in Redwood county have no news
paper but are served by several, the
Redwood county publishers have CO.
operated with the county officials and
each is furnishing it's readers with
the complete county list.
The law requires that the entire
list be published in some one of the
nine papers in the county. County
publishers therefore are giving nine
times the service required and at no
extra cost to the county which pays
for only one publication. The Gazette
list begins on page two Of the second
section. .-.s.
