County Assessor Joel Taylor, has completed the work of listing up the valuation of property in Juab County, with the exception of the Mines, Railroad and other public utilities which is taken care of by the State Board of Equalization.

The valuations in the two school districts are as follows: Juab School District $4,809,225.00. Tlntic School When the District, $2,247,795.00. valuations of the mines and railroad are computed, the total will show a large increase over last year due to the increased mining activity, and the figures attained two or three years ago are expected to be reached, which will again place this .county in a hrgrrer class than we are now.
