^ISSIONER LEE BRINGS
ACTION AGAINST COUNT!
^,u. Corporation Commissioner
v T hoc has brought* an. action
^ the commissioners of Jackson
before the state .tax com
^ in an effort to have the val
'"71 of his land, the old Meade
tract, in Scotfa C?.k
, reduced, alleging that it
is 01. tl?o tax books at more than its
1m i..n, and higher ??> otl,cr
lands in the county, and tha!
1, udiwral interest in the land ?
,l?. ,,,-operty of Mr. Lee, hut ot
.] ; la v wood Lumber and Mmning
C01U|.:i:iy, whose valuation of $7,000.
00 Mr. Lee alleges should be deduct
(i |rV!i the valuation of his land.
Tl;c ounty commissioners are pre
pnVi to make a fight to have, the
vroM nt valuation sustained, <and
liaVI, ,|10 county attorney, Mr. W. R,
Shcnill. working on the case. Tho
x)-s contention is that Mr. Lee's
valiiatio" of $10.00 per acre is not as
fab as the land would sell for, and
4i)t it is in keeping with valuations
0f r-ut over land throughout the
county. ,
Mr. Lee has 3946 acres of land,
listed W the tax books at $39,721
w?, while the Haywood Lumber and
Mining Company's mineral interest
?m the land is listed at $7,000.00.
Tlu' county commissioners take the
psitinii that this valuation is not ex
tessivc and that it is in keeping with
the valuations on mountaip lands ot
Vjtli large and small holdings
throughout the county, and have m
stract-'.l the county attorney to issue
summonses for people conversaiu
irifli liind valuations . in the count \

i SEMI-MONTHLY FARM NOTES
\ I. .
Reports sent to the Crop Report
ing Servicc between the 15th and 31st
of March show that the weather has
been cold and rainy during the most
of the month and much too wet for
plowing. The last few days of the
month have been warm and sunny
ami ah* reported as very good fann
ing weather.
The outstanding fact reported con
cerning market conditions is that
they r.'re generally ]>oor. Northern
Piedmont counties report th6 market
as very active; other,. sections of the
state report it as poor to normal.
There has been a heavy demand
for commercial fertilizers every where
fhis spring. A great deal of the farm
work ,i.rw> been done notwithstanding
.the had weather in March. Farmer.'
in the Piedmont counties are sowiny.

The activities of the cott'ou boh
weevils aie attributed as the cause
for many farmers to enter more act
ively into raising livestock. Several
of the mountain ccunties "report that
I >Oor prices have caused a decrease
in the usual, shipments of livestock,
but, in general, niore attention is be
ing p$id to it. v Pi^ are reported in
good condition and the better breeds
are increasing. Dairy cattle arc in
good demand and the market for
dairy products is good. Many report
that there are very few sheep beiiiji

losing interest in them. More inter
