around the motor of a combine
belonging to Earl Wilson caught
fire. Wilson had noticed this con-
dition and had stopped the COM
bine and was eating lunch while
waiting for the motor to cool so
he could clean the machine off,
when he smelled smoke and found
that a fire had started. He imme-

RECORD SCI
School District No. 5
Tax Levy Down
1922 Mills

Final approval of school bud
gets last week by the Richland
County Commissioners establish
ed the School District No. 5 final
budget at 1888 mills. This COM
pares with CATS mills in 1857
1858.
The reduction which the school
administration and school board
worked hard to assure is explained
as follows, according to Harry F.
Mikelson, Superintendent of
Schools:
The special levy of 19 mills for
finishing the six rooms in the
elementary school was a levy for
one year only. This addition has
now been paid for in full.
A cash budget balance of s8867-
SO was saved by careful and close
supervision of expenditures. This
money was transferred to the cash
balance Of the general receipts and
reduces the mill levy by approx
mately 3 mills. This savings was
accomplished by the school board
and administration through a pol
icy Of close and careful expendi-
lures and economic budgeting.
The balance of the reduction re-
suits from increased taxable valu-
atoms in School District No. S.
The mill levy in Sidney High
School District No. / shows an
increase of Ill mills over the
1957-1958 levy. Careful budgeting
as well as increased taxable valu-
atoms has made it possible to OBJ
crate the Sidney high school with
an increased number of teachers
and pupils at a levy increase
which is less than the 3 mills spe-
cial levy which was voted last
spring.
