P LIN FOREIGN DEMAND COMPLICATES HOME SITUATION SYSTEMAT IC EFFORT MADE TO CAUSE LACK OF CONFIDENCE. (Br United Press to the Bend Bulletin) WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 11.

Public I'tilltiod Values Still to Bo Turned In by State Livestock and Lumber Values Reach a High Amount. Exclusive of the estimates yet to be placed on public utilities, tbe val ues of which are to be fixed by the State. Tax Commission, property In Deschutes county Is worth $5,086,030 according to the report made by tbe County Board of EcjuaUaettton, in session daily this .:. On a rough estimate derrred from Crook county public utilities assessments two years ago, Mr. Mullarkey believes that this hem will reach around a halt million,' and Is of the opinion that the total assessments for the county will be at least this much in excess ot last year's valuation. An accurate com parison, however, will be Impossible, as Deschutes county was a part of Crook a year ago. General divisions It Mr. Mullar key's report thiB year show the fol lowing items: Personal property. $904,140; lands, $3,243,175; city realty, $938,715. , Much Land Tillable. In the division of lands, the culti vated area in the county totals 48,646 acres, and is valued at $502,310, or an average it $10.33 per acre. Land suited for agricultural purposes, but uncultivated, amounts tp 79,968 acres, with a value of $338,315. non tillable land covering an area of 125. 183 acres, is assessed at $190,950. while timber land, extending over 264,042 acres. Is valued at $1,634, 035. Under the classification of per sonal property, the following Hems are found: Machinery, $200,880; merchandise. $233,580. and autos $92,125. Horses are numbered at 2983, with a total valuation ot $97,620, or $32.73 per head. Cattle are valued at $23.08 a head, which . V. T i e ... , . mm ono eiiumeraiea, gives 9199. 040. Eight thousand, tour hundred and eleven head ot sheep In the coun ty are valued at $4.01 a head, or $33,705, and swine at $5.62 a head are assessed at an aggregate of $2750. New Tracts Taxed. As an oddity in values, it was noted that dogs were assessed at an average ot $11.15. while cultivated land is rated at only $10.33 per acre. Large tracts ot land on which taxes were never before paid, were listed this year y Deschutes county's first assessor, 50,720 acres, representing a valuation of $105,280, appearing tor the first time on the tax rolls. The greater part ot this was com-' posed of homesteads on which final proof was made, while the remainder represented land brought Into the taxable class by the closing of con tracts with the state for acreage under the Tumalo, or C. O. I. pro jects. Few Complaints Made While entire valuations for Dee chutes county property reach $5,086. 030, the appraisements have bee made practically on a 50 per cent basis, indicating that the wealth ot the county is approximately double the amount. The session ot the county's first equalization board, composed ot CoUnlV JudffA XV n TtarnAa Plavlr j. n. rianer ana Assessor Munarxey. is proving an uneventful one so far, practically no complaints having been filed with the exception ot a few claiming faulty classification ot the lands. Only small sums are involved ' In any of the complaints.
