COUNTY wins
CATTLE CASE
Stdte Equalization
Bomd SuYs Miller
Company Must Pay

County Attorney Bert w,
Kronmiller this week took steps
to collect taxes on 1918 head of
cattle owned by the Miller Land
and Livestock company, after
he received a decision Monday
from the state board of equali-
ZatiOn on an appeal made by
the company.
The Miller company had ap-
pealed from an arbitrary assess
ment made by the county. The
appeal was made on the grounds
that the cattle in question had
been imported from the Repub-
lie of Mexico and were in a
fourth class bonded warehouse
established by the United States
customs service.
The state board found, after
hearing the testimony Of both
the Miller company and the
county, that the company had
in the county on the first Mon
day in March, 1912, a minimum
of 1913 cattle. This figure gave
the company every benefit OF
the doubt" the report of the
state board said.
The board further decided
that the area in which the
cattle were being fed, which the
Miller company commended was
a bonded warehouse, could not
possibly be such a warehouse
under the provisions of the U. S.
tariff act. of 1880, since it was
possible for the cattle to escape
from the boundaries of the
warehouse" according to the
evidence brought out at the
time of the hearing.

effect throughout the nation
will begin Nov. 9, but every mot
orist has an immediate assign
ment to fulfill before he will be

ment.
Every motorist when he ap-
plies for his gasoline ration

numbers of his five tires anG
certify that he has no more
than five in his possession. The

ment is severe, it was stated.

ready done so should lose no
time in selecting the five best
tires they own and turning the
rest to the nearest office of the

has to take them to the nearest
express office. The owner will be
given a receipt for his tires and
will receive his check, or war
bonds or stamps, if he so de-
sires, in payment from the gov
eminent shortly after the tire
has been inspected at the ware
