This is not a “Land Year,” so real estate should not be returned
this year except in cases of newly acquired property or where new
buildings have been erected. All who have acquired real estate and
built new houses are especially urged to make returns. All personal
property, except household goods and furniture used in the home
of the owner, which are not taxable, must be returned this year.
You know more about your property than anyone, else. By mak
ing your own return you avoid errors.
If you have not made your return, meet me at the above places.
