At the last census, the school pop
ulation of this district was 1.5G0.
and Increase of nearly 200 over the
preceding year. A conservative es
timate at this time' will place the
census for said district at 17,000. I
am unable, however, to give a com
plete figure as the census has not
j been checked.
The amount of money derived
from .-e state and county school
tax, or per capita, amounts to $13,
600.. ., which would leave a bal
ance of $33,785... to be raiBed bj
levy.
Tho valuation of School District
No. 4 Is $2. 991. 220. 00. A 9-mlll I
levy tho preceding year raised $26.
920.98. I am therefore of the onln.
Ion that in order to raise sufficient
money to liquidate the Indebtedness
to become due In 191.1, It will be
necessary to levy a tax of ten mills,
unless the Board of Directors have
some other scheme in view whereby
they can liquidate said Indebtedness
and take care of the bonded debt
that becomes due.
You will note In thjs report I
have made no allowance for any ex-(
tended Improvements for the cnnuln?
year. Therefore, if additional Im
.provemcnts are anticipated, the levy
should bo accordingly made.
