Since the new law requires that the personal assessments be made in January and February, it is not practical to use field men, also field men cannot purchase automobile tires. New people in the County and those having no personal assess ments last year may either call at the office or write for a blank. All mail ed blanks should be returned as soon as the values can be determined. We earnestly ask your cooperation in this matter. D. W. DAVIS, County Assessor.
