to drag the deer long distance
back to the camp.
The animal was placed in a
freezing unit until Mr.. Dodge
was ready to return to Ohio. He
is considering having bear skin
rug made of the bear hide, and
his mother, Mrs. Homer Dodge,
is enquiring of friends the cor
rect cooking methods for bear

Pumpkin Show
Again Successful

Second annual pumpkin show
at Magnetic Springs attracted
more than over 1000 persons last
Saturday with their varied pro-
gram of fun and entertainment.
The Leesburg Grange and the
L e e S b ur g-Magnetic Better
Schools Club officials report that
there was a complete sell-out on
the refreshments. The shows,
dances and contests were packed
with people bent on an evening
of fun.
Ralph Tatman was the first
person to correctly identify ''Mr.
x" who was Milton Braithwaite,
disguised as an Anonymous"
character.
Mrs. Edwin Manville won the
prize for the largest pumpkin pie
and Mrs. Guy Zent baked the
scallest pie. Mrs. Manville's pie
measured more than two feet
across and Mrs. Zent's pie was
smaller than a thimble.
Julie Drake and Denny God
dard, both seventh grade stu
dents, were crowned king and
queen of the show by last years
king and queen, Juanita Lowe
and Jack Mclaughlin.
The king and queen program
was promoted by Mrs. Ed Myers.
The king and queen were voted"
for with pennies, each penny
counting as one vote.
The king and queen contest and
all the other programs netted the
show a gross of $500 which will
be used to purchase new end and
back curtains at the Leesburg-
Magnetic schools.

Properly Values
In Union County
Slightly Higher
Board of Revision
Completes Corrections;
Figures on File

Land and property valuations
for Union county are only slight
ly higher this year than in 1949,
according to the appraisals for the
two years as prepared by the
county board Of revisions.
Total property value in Union
county for 1850 is S2i, ,734,850, as
compared with $21, ,596,20O for
1949.
The total valuation for all land
and buildings in the townships in
1850 was $l6,267,870, as compared
with $16,233,4 ,480 in 1949. There
are 272,879 acres of land in the
county.
The property in municipalities
was valued at $5,466,98 for 1850
and $5,362,710 for 1949.
Basis for Taxation
The purpose of this compilation
is to establish an equitable basis
for property taxation. If anyone
is in doubt as to the correct ap-
praisal of their property, they
should contact County Auditor
Frank McCurdy.
Reappraisal of all property in
the county is made every six
years. All property improvements
made between appraisals should
be reported to the county audi
tors office as soon as they are
completed.
In addition to the county ap-
praisal, all counties are now sub
ject to review from the State Ex-
aminer. If he considers that the
county appraisals are not as high
as other counties, proportionately,
he can order an increase, which
would automatically raise taxes
here, and there is no appeal from
such an order.
