HOW MUCH WILL BONDS IN CREASE MY TAX? Taking the amount of taxable property in Barrow County as given in to Tax Receiver this year, 1919, we fine that our county is worth about 500,000 dollars more than she was wort Til ast year. Con sider this increase in taxable pro perty for one year and multiply this by ten and you will have about what our taxable property will be when we start to paying for our bonds. It will be ten years before we pay anything on Bunds except t lie interest. Taking the amount of taxable property in Barrow County as given in 1 his year to Tax Receiver and we find that on this amount the interest on the $200,000 bonds will be only about 25 cents on the hundred dollars. Or in 6*/ier words if you gave in your tax this year and tho amount was for SIOO you will only ad to the regular* tax about 25 cents to take care of the bonds. Remember that our taxable property is increasing each year but the interest on those bonds will not, so each year the amount of tax to take care of the bonds will decrease and not increase. Who in our county has such little public spirit as to not want to pay 25 cents on each SIOO tax so as to have GOOD ROADS all over our county and a COUNT Y COURT HOUSE that we will al ways he proud of? The CITY of WINDER pays about forty per cent of t tax of BARROW COUNTY and accord ing to the Federal Road Act not otic cent of this money can he used on ROADS inside of the CITY LIMITS of WINDER. Judge Hill is busy with his force repairing and building bridges damaged and washed away last week.
