The valuation of the assessable
property for this year, at will be
seen, amounts to $14,069,071, after
deducting the exemption of $148,-
685.
Last year the total assess
ment was $13,536,261 with no ex
emptions allowed, but if the same
exemption is taken from last year’s
assessment, it then shows an in
crease in the values of the prop
erty in Coos county to be $828,180,
which is encouraging from the fact
that business was more lively last
year than this.
Last year's money assessed
amounted to $16,434.
This year
we have $53,770.
Last year ac
counts and notes amounted to
$279,755.
This year’s return is
$295,595, a difference of only $15,-
840. The roll* show the following
summary for 1908:
Tillable acres, 16,845; untillable
734,657 acres. The former valued
at $963,280; and the latter $7,214,-
806.
Improvements of deeded
lands, $544,630.
