NO. 86. .raw SMALLPOX CASES Me com Slail ii ASSESORS WILL GO ARE FOUmD III UTAH AFTER "HIDDEN" STATE PROPERTY Physicians of Utah county are battling to prevent a spread of smallpox in Utah county. Three cases, two of a mild form, have been found in Provo. Four cases are reported from Salem; two from American Fork, and one from Springville. Dr. Walter T. Hasler, former city physician, this morning said mat while the cases already found and quarantined are hot indicative of a smallpox epidemic, every precaution should be taken to prevent an outbreak of the dread disease, such as visited Utah a score of years ago. He points to recent epidemics in Kansas City and Denver, as worthy of the exercise of precaution here. "Every person who has not been vaccinated recently should be vaccinated now," Dr. Hasler said. "There is no other preventative known except vaccination, and among the successfully vaccinated the cases &ra rare, and deaths practically unknown." Dr. Hasler says the cases of smallpox at American Fork followed the visit of one of the patients to Kansas City during the epidemic there. The Springville case is said to have followed the patient's visit to Denver during the rage of smallpox in that The deputy assessors of the various districts of Utah county were in Provo yesterday, conferring with the county assessor and the county commissioners on the assessment values of the county and receiving the book and their instructions preparatory to beginning the assessment for 1922. Under the law all the property, both personal and real, within the county is, subject to taxation', and according to reports and the best information obtainable a part of this property is escaping taxation. The farm bureau met recently with the assessor and the county commissioners, and brought to their attention that it was the belief that a great part of the personal prop erty, in the guise of money, stocks, The notes, etc., was being missed. assessor and the commissioners in structed the deputies to use every effort in getting this class of prop erty on their books, for by so doing it was pointed 'out, the burden of tax ation on real estate and improvements could be reduced. Under the instructions of the state board of equalization, cattle this year will be assessed as follows: Range cattle, under two years of age, $18 per $25, and over head; three years old, $30. Milch cows and blooded cattle, $40 and upwards. Range sheep at $5, and blooded sheep, $15. Other property at its cash value. I The assessor anticipates that the county will not hold up to last year's valuation, as he believes that merchan dise will not hold up to last year's value and that there will be a falling off in the bank valuations, and other values may be lowered. Every effort, Mr. Hawkins states, will be made to place all property on the assessment roles, so that a more equal distribution of taxation may be gained. The county assessor expects to have all the work done and the books turned over to the county treasurer on or before April 15. The city health department has serum to vacsufficient cinate several hundred persons, according to Dr. Hasler. iMany school children have been vaccinated. Some have refused because they considered the price charged as too high. The fee asked is 50 cents. In some cities, it is pointed out, the city pays for the vaccination so that no person can have as an excuse for the inability, real or fancied, to pay. three-year-old- s, - x SPECIAL COUNTY AUDIT.
