If vou haven't paid your 1915 taxes
you had better take some means to do i 1 GL
so within the week as property on '
which 1915 taxes are unpaid will be
advertised for sale by the sheriff, be- j
ginning next Monday, February 5. I
Property may be redeemed by the
owner after being put on the delin
quent list, or even after it has been
sold, but the expense of advertising,
of the sheriff's clerical work and post
ing of notices, and other charges, and j
nuerest on ine taxes, must men oe
paid. So it is truly catching time by
the forelock to pay your 1915 taxes
before next Monday.
The sheriff's office started on the i
delinciuent list this morning and will
probably finish by the middle of the: WE WILL P.
week. No one in the office would
hazard a guess as to the number of
pieces 'of property which may be ad
vertised for sale but the general be
lief is that the list this year will be
smaller than usual.
