tion of over sixteen millions to

sessment, which will be made by
the Btate commission, and which
will add about one million dollars
to the roll. The figures show
that within the last year Wash
ington County has made a gain
of eleven hundred acres of clear

tween three and four acres have
been cleaned up for every day in
the year. Cattle are not so
numerous; horses are not so
plentiful by about 200 head but
the Missouri mule has made a
