The state tax .rate will! be §4.08 per
$1,000, according' to- a report filed
with the -jdmjnistr_tive board by
Auditor Gsmaral O. B," Fuller.
The total state tax will be S20-
4-1,333.79, an increase of 14.9S per
.cent or slightly inpre than gS.000,000
over the 1920 tax.
The .rate of $4.08 is based on an
equalized variation for this year cf
$5,000,000,000 and compares with a
corresponding rate for last year of
$3.86. The actual rate lest year
figured from the assessed -valuation
of the state, which was more than
$5,300,000,000, was $3.26 and a corresponding rate this year, figured on
the mew tax total and the actual assessed valuation, which is more than
$5,400,000, would be $3.72.
The advance is accounted for by
interest items', including those involved in the payment of bonuses to
ex-*se,rvice men. The report shows
that if thesg items are deducted the
amount to be raised by taxation for
actual general operating expenses of
the state is less by $593,244.50, or
3.35 per cent, than last year.
Amounts to be raised by taxation
for interest are $300,000 for $5,000,000
woxtih of 6 per cent one year soldier
bonus notes; $1,293,750 ior $15,000,-
000 worth of 5 3-4 per cent bonus
bonds (already sold;) $862,000 for
$15,000,000 worth of bonus bonds
(still to be sold) and $1,2G0,000 on
highway bonds   and,  notes.
The administrative board is given
$150,000* of the tax money, $86,873,-
29 is set aside for the enforcement
of the James compulsory education
law. and $34,8.47.25 for carrying out
tha rehabilitpitioni compensation law.

The beautiful pinto pony, seen to

William. S. Hart pictures, and very
prominently in "The Toli Gate," one
of his recent productions for Parar-

important role in "Sand!," Mr. Hasfs
latest vehicle which will be presented " at the Liberty theatre Saturday
evening.

pony, with his master in the saddle, '
leaps from a high cliff into the

ever attempted.:
