Board Adopts Tax
Levies For 1885

Tax rates levied for the fiscal year
beginning October /, 1885 on all taxable
property within the county and each
district effective on January ! have been
adopted by the Holmes County Board of
Supervisors at the November meeting.
The milage for the state has been re-
duced one mill, this year being mills
instead of 5. The county remains the
same at mills, with the Bridge Fund
and General School Funds at the same
| figures of last year, a and mills re-
spectively.
In the rate for the Town of Lexing-
ton reduction of 214 mills is adopted,
while Road l and Lexington School
shows reduction of 4ai mills. The
town of Durant also has reduction of
2A mills.
The New Black Creek Drainage rate
is set at l per cent, with the Abiaca
Drainage at 3 per cent. A Reforestra-
ton Tax of cents per acre was adopted
detailed review of the tax levies
| for all districts of the county appears
| elsewhere in this issue.

Serial Numbers Must
Appear Cotton Sales

Many of the producers and buyers are
mailing the cotton sale certificates for
subsidy to the county agents office
without enclosing the Bankhead serial
number. There is no possible way of
being certain about the number to be
placed on these forms in this procedure
stated the county agent. Instructions
were sent out to all producers to bring
these forms to the county agents Of
flee and where they are not so delivered,
the county agent can assume no respon-
sibility whatever in the correct hand
ling.
Producers are asked to bear in mind
that people in the north part of the
county often sell in the south part of
the county and in these events there
is always two or more people with iden-
tical names somewhere in the county
Therefore this makes it impossible for
the county agent to distinguish where
particular producer is from, merely
by his name and the point at which cot
ton was sold. Serious mixups have al
ready occurred in this respect and it is
entirely the fault of producers mailing
forms in to the office.
These forms may be mailed in to the
office with absolute safety provided the
book in which the gin certificates were
issued is sent along with the form.

$23,5O0 Cold Storage
Plant Offered Holmes

Holmes county has been allotted $685.
10000 in the PWA setup for the erection
of a combination cold storage and ware
house provided certain obligations are
met. Among these being the location
of the plant to be at the county seat
and that materials such as sand, and
gravel and the site upon which the
building is placed to be furnished free.
The Board of Supervisors has taken
this matter under advisement pending
the action of the present session of the
Legislature in passing an Enabling Act
which will allow the Board to comply
with the demands outlined.
1t is felt that with a modern cold
storage plant that the farmers of Holmes
county could profit materially in the
handling of their farm meat supply. In
connection with the warehouse the
Holmes County Farm Bureau would be
able to advance partial payment on all
farm seeds stored for future sales and
hence would be an inducement to the
growers to produce these crops which in
turn would furnish a dependable source
of farm seed to Holmes producers.
1t is sincerely hoped that this plant
may be a reality and add another rung
to the ladder of agricultural progress in
in the county, many farmers have stated.
