TIMES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY, 24, 1910.
THE OFFICE IS AMONG
BEST IN THE COUNTY.
Officials of Suniler
Good Pay.
Get
The campaign for counity offices
now hc-lng waged has caused specula
tion as to the amount of salary at
tached to each department, and
surprise la expressed at the Increase
■within recent years, due to the en
hancement of land values and addi
tional business at the court house
generally.
Nearly every office, except those of
sheriff and clerk of court, pays more
now than in recent years, all of
them being an a fee basis.
Increased land values bring an in
crease of pay to tax receiver and
consequently, to the tax collector,
each official being paid a percentage
upon the amount of taxes assessed
and upon the amount collected.
And increased property values
helps the treasurer likewis.
This office formerly paid something
like $S00 to $1,000, but Increased bus
iness has recently put the annual com
pensation above the !$2,000 mark,
thus mak'ng It about the most de
sirable office upon the list, as very
Ulttle clerical work Is required of
the treasurer during the year.
Should the $100,000 bond issue go
through this year, ag now hoped, the
treasurer’s commission of 2 1-2 per
cent, for handling that fund will add
vastly to his stipend.

A Guidepost to Increased
Profits
If you have never used
Peruvian Guano you have
never realized the greatest
possible yields from your soil.
Peruvian Guano is the excre
ment of birds that inhabit the
rocky coasts of Peru and adja
cent islands.
These birds live on fish,
hence thisfertilizer is especially
rich in certain elements.
These elements are in differ
ent forms some slowly and
some quickly active, which
thus furnish nourishment tothe
plant from start to maturity.
Peruvian Guano is digested
fish and should not be con
fused with inferior products
like bat guano, etc.
Many of our farmers have
used Peruvian Guano and
know what enormous crops
it will produce.
We have a beautifully illus
trated book which tells of this
wonderful product of nature.
