Important to Tax Payers. The State Accounting Board has ruled that Road Receipts must be presented only by the party Owning the property.

The County Treasurer will adhere strictly to this rule, for his own protection. All who can, should pay early, as> it takes much more time t«f wait on the people with the new form receipts, and the books positively must be closed on the evening of the first Monday in May.
