FOR GENERAL
FUND Lower
Commissioners State that With
Its Elimination 1913 Tax
Rate Is 1875 Mills.
Total Reduction for Year Will
Be rs Mills, Valley Board
Announces.

For the first time in the history
of Valley county, no general fund
tax levy will be made this year, it
was announced by county commits
sioners today. Members, Maurice
Arnold, Nels c.. Briggs and Carl

board of equalization and have
completed the preliminary budget
for the coming year.
Figures show that the total county
tax levy for this year will be 1875
mills, compared with 81 mills in
1912. In a statement, the commits
sioners said:
Study of the needs and require
mentS of Valley county, compared
with the cash on hand and other
anticipated income, shows that a
could be made.
THE preliminary budgets show
that Valley county now has Suf-
ficient funds on hand to meet all
needs of the general fund, so no
general fund levy will be required.
THE levy on the general fund,
which normally covers the cost OF
law enforcement, court expense and
all county offices, used to be be-
tween IA to Is mills. 1t was re-
duced to 6 mills for 1912 and will be
unnecessary this year. This, of
course, is an unusual condition
caused by large collections of de-
linquent taxes and large conversion
of county-owned lands into cash
during the past year."
Total county levies for this year
and last are compared in the fol-
lowing tabulation:

Indications are that there will be
a slight increase in levies for high
schools, commissioners said, since
the increased costs of operation were
only partially offset by increased
cash.
But even here the increased
costs of operating our schools viii
not be reflected much in the tax
levieS, since the reserves of cash
will absorb most of this COST" they
added.

IN MONTANA
Minneapolis Broker Here Says
Eastern Section of State
Has Possibilities.
Soil and Climatic Conditions
Good; Now Accessible
to Markets.

Both by climatic and soil condi-
tions and by accessibility to midwest
markets does northeastern Montana
present strong potentialities for
providing many vegetables, it was
declared here Wednesday by D. L.
Piazza of Minneapolis, vegetable
broker.
Mr.. Piazza made a tour of the
area from Williston, NJ D., to Malta
and also supervised the unloading of
two carloads of seed potatoes at Os-
wego, in eastern Valley county, for
which farmers of that area have
contracted with Mr.. Piazza to grow
los acres. The potatoes are of the
Chippewa variety, for which there
is a heavy demand in the middle
west.
Accompanying Mr.. Piazza were T.
H. Graves OF Minneapolis, staff
member of the Packer, trade journ-
al, and Paul G. c. Wagner of Fargo,
N. D., and Charles E. Jarrett of
Great Falls, Great Northern agri-
cultural development agents.
Mr.. Piazza said he was investigat-
ing possibilities of large scale onion
production in this territory, but he
stressed that such production must
be preceded by at least one years
intensive and careful soil prepara-
ton.
Another possibility for this sec
ton, he said, is head lettuce.
While truck vegetables are grown
in many parts of the United States,
he said the time at which such
crops would mature in Montana
would bring them in demand not
only in the midwest but in the
south. Also, they would not be as
far from markets as production
areas on the west coast.
