1 FARM GROUP (Continued from Page One) board of tax reviewers hadn’t equalized these values, for, as he explained: “Everyone knew Turkey Creek, Township Farms are riot the best in the county.” The list also showed that the valuation on, improvements per acre in this township “amounts to $20.39, the next to the highest; the highest 'being in Tippecanoe with a valuation of $21.35 . ' Ralph Vail of Millersburg told of the progress of the work of the farm bureau in Elkhart county and Benton township, and how in seeking for information on the valuation of farms they had proof that farms were not making any money. For in, the year of ,1930. 22 farms which kept the “Purdue Records’’ at the end of, the year showed an average net prosit of but one per cent. He explained that the valuation of farm property is based not only on the voluntary j sale price but on its earning capacity and that if earning capacity is taken into consideration the farm valuation ought to come doWg. I Exemption on. Public Roads Vail also introduced the question | of whether or not the Kosciusko I county farm bureau had taken up. the question of exemption on the number of acres in a farm included I ip improved roads: I Mellott explained that the practise in this county was to include the ac.es in the road in the a.-se.-snjynt < to raise the valuation of the farm i and then subtract the valuation, of the acres included in the road. The! icason that the assessor gave for so doing was that the road gave the I farm an added value. ' Deaton said that the roads were built for tourists/ trucking compani- ' es and so forth and. the farmers ysed ’ the roads th* least. I Previous to the tax discussion a short sketch entitled “Uncle Dick’s Mistake” was given by Duane Kime. Bowena Kime, Frederick Ciaytvr. Et-. don Clayton and Velma Disher. STATE SCHOOL < (Continued from First Pag,) unnecessary expenditures, and that I further /reduction would inter | sere with their efficiency. Murray said the people would be the first to protest after seeing what reduction in the amount spent on] their upkeep* did to- schools. in regard to the crowded condition of school hacks, Murray said that every time he rode in a street rar in a city he had to stand, as did s.-hool children and that children.in a school hacKri stand fur a few moments, and that in view of the present financial condition of the country, people ought to be willing to endure a few hard ships in getting an education.
