STATE AND LOCAL TAXES 117 



5. How many $800 schoolhouses or churches could be 

 built each year out of this waste ? 



6. Estimate the rate of local tax on the $100 valuation 

 necessary to make $50 worth of repairs on the schoolhouse 

 and to buy a $25 library. 



NOTE. The advanced pupils, assisted by the teacher, might, with 

 interest, make a list of the taxable property in their district the 

 number of acres of land and its value, the number of head of cattle, 

 horses, sheep, etc., with the value of each. Such a list is called an 

 assessment roll.
