A* both question and atiBDcr may be of interest to all the parties concerned we give publicity thereto "It in a common practice among farmers to have their sons assessed with them aa joint-owners, or tenants, instead c/i M i.s, in older to avoid the one day statute labor each farmer's ton afuessid aa aucb is liable for. Is this proper, when the SOD is not a bona fide owner or tenant >" Answer No. The sons should be assessed as farmers' sons unless they have a bona fide interest in the land owned by i heir father, as owner 01 i tenant." Another question was "Is it the duty of the assessor to ascertain the orrect status of the son of sons'" Answer "Yea." Assessors can now go along and do their sworn duty. Hon. J. .S.
