Subscribers to this work will be pleased, I am
sure, to note the additions which have been made
this year. The listing- of a good Bank in each
County, it seems to me, ought to be of considerable
value. As most transactions pertaining to real
estate which are closed through banks, are han-
dled at county seat towns, patrons of this directory
will, as a general rule, find this all that is desired
in the way of a Bank Directory, and will thus be
saved the cost of a high-priced publication. The
Banks listed herein, while not in every case those
of the largest capitalization to be found, are promi-
nent institutions, having special facilities for han-
dling collections and other non-resident business.
Many of them are U. S. Depositories, all have large
deposits and are very popular locally.
As in former editions, the most careful means
have been employed in the selection of representa-
tives in the other lines of business also. While it
is not expected that I can become personally ac-
quainted with all these parties or with their finan-
cial standing, the method of obtaining their names
is such that I do not hestitate to assert that this
is as reliable a list, considering the territory cov-
ered, as is possible to produce. Letters are sent
to local bankers in the form as given below, and
they, knowing* the reputation, habits, financial
standing and ability of these parties, make the
selection for me, and on the postal card sent them
for the purpose, they recommend them in very
strong terms. In a few counties where there are
no banks or where the one written to failed to
reply promptly, the recommendations were made by
some other prominent business man or county of-
ficer and their honesty and integrity vouched for.
(Form of letter sent to Bankers, j
Dear Sir:
Will you be kind enough to give me, on the en-
closed postal card in the following order:
The name of one of the most reliable and re-
sponsible abstracters,
One of the best and most reliable real estate
agents, and
A first-class real estate lawyer in your town.
If you will kindly select for me such men as you
can recommend in these lines as being responsible,
and who, in your judgment, would faithfully at-
tend to any matters pertaining to real estate which
might be entrusted to them, I will consider it quite
an accommodation. Kindly answer promptly and
give me, if possible, the names of three different
men.
Yours truly,
The Special List of Abstracters approved by the
Union Central Life Insurance Co. is also a new
feature. It is needless for me to point out the ad-
vantage of this to Financial Correspondents of this
company, or their sub-agents, or to describe the
method of investigation employed before the names
are placed on this company's approved list. Suffice
it to say, that their requirements, as is the case
with all large life insurance companies, are very
rigid and to be classed as one of their approved
abstracters is a strong recommendation in itself.
The matter which this publication now contains,
if printed in larger type, on pulp paper, and spaced
as some real estate directories are, is sufficient to
make a very large volume. Believing that a bulky
affair of this kind is in no way desirable, I have
made this of a size to easily slip into a pigeon
hole of a desk, where it is at all times available for
ready reference.
Inasmuch as the revision has been so thorough
and complete and we are now so far along in 1907,
it is deemed that no further issues of this book
will be necessary until January, 1909. In the mean-
time I hope all the reliable men whose names fol-
low may enjoy the prosperity which they justly
deserve and be able to give "Montgomery's" some
credit for aiding in the cause.

LAWS OF CALIFORNIA
Relative To
TAXES AND CONVEYANCES.
Prepared expressly for Montgomery's Real Estate
and Legal Directory, June 22nd, 1907, by Crittenden
Hampton, attorney at law, Sonora, California.
Taxes.
Property is assessed for taxes between the first
Monday of March and July of each year to the per-
sons owning it at noon on the first ^Monday in
March. It is required to be assessed at its full cash
value, but as a matter of practice the valuation is
usually less. All taxes become a lien on the first
Monday in March. Taxes on all personal property not
secured by real property become due and payable
immediately upon assessment. Taxes on all personal
property secured by real property and one-half of the
taxes on real property are due and pavable on the
first Monday in October, and become delinquent on
the last Monday in November at 6 o'clock p. m. ; and
if not then paid 15 per cent is added to the amount
thereof. And if said one-half be not paid before the
LAWS AND FORMS— CALIFORNIA 307
last Monday in April next, at 6 o'clock p. m., an
additional 5 per cent is added. The remaining one-
half of the taxes on all real property is payable
on the first Monday in January next, and delinquent
on the last Monday in April at 6 o'clock p. m. ; and if
not then paid 5 per cent is added. All taxes may be
paid at the time the first installment is due and pay-
able. All taxes are payable to the tax collector at
his office.
The taxes may be paid upon each particular lot
assessed.
On or before June 5th of each year the tax collector
must publish the delinquent list, which must contain
the names of the persons, and description of the pro-
perty delinquent, and the amount of taxes, penalties
and costs due, and appended thereto a notice that
unless the taxes delinquent, together with the costs
and penalties are paid, the real property upon which
such taxes are a lien will be sold. This delinquent list
and notice must be published once a week for three
successive weeks in some newspaper.
At the time fixed in the notice of the sale of
property if the amount of tax and dues 'thereon are
not paid, the land is struck off and sold by the
tax collector to the state. A certificate of sale is
then issued to the state. The property so sold may
may be redeemed by the owner or any party in inter-
est within five years from the date of the sale to the
state, or at any time prior to the time the state sells
the land. If the property is not redeemed within five
years from the date of sale, the tax collector, or his
successor in office, must execute a deed for the pro-
perty to the state. This deed conveys to the state the
absolute title to the property free of all incumbrances ;
but the owner of the land, or any party in interest,
may redeem the property from the state even after the
execution of this deed, at any time before the state
sells the land, by the payment of the original tax
for which the land is sold, all penalties and dues, and
all taxes which would have been assessed between the
time of sale and the redemption.
Conveyances.
Land in this state is usually conveyed by deed called
a "grant," which may be in the following form :
I, A. B,. grant to C. D. all that real property
isituated in (insert name of county) county),
state of California, bounded (or, described) as
follows: (here insert description, or if the land
sought to be conveyed has a descriptive name, it
may be described by the name, as for instance,
"The Norris Ranch").
Witness my hand this (insert day) day of
(insert month (, 19... A. B.
Or by grant bargain and sale deed.
No private or other seal is required, and no wit-
nesses are necessary to the validity of the deed.
Either husband or wife may convey his or her sep-
arate property without the signature of the other.
♦Husband can convey community property not home-
stead but to cut off any equities that might be
308 LAWS AND FORMS— CALIFORNIA
claimed tby wife, husband and wife should join in the
conveyance of community property. The separate
property of husband or wife is that owned by either
before or at the time of marriage, and that acquired
afterwards by gift, bequest, devise or descent, with
the rents, issues and profits thereof. All other prop-
erty acquired by either after marriage is community
property.
All deeds are valid between the parties without
being acknowledged, but to entitle it to record and
make it valid as to other parties the execution of the
deed should be acknowledged. This acknowledgement
may be made without this state, but within the United
States, and within the jurisdiction of the officer ; be-
fore either a Justice, Judge or Clerk of any Court
of record in the United States, or of any state, a com-
missioner appointed by the Governor of this state for
that purpose, a Notary Public oir any other officer of
the state where acknowledgment is made, authorized
by its laws to take such proof or acknowledgement.
The acknowledgement may be made without the United
States before either a Minister, Commissioner or
Charge d* Affaires of the United States, resident and
accredited in the country where the acknowledgement
is made, or a Consul, Vice Consul or Consular agent
of the United 'States resident in the country where
the acknowledgement is made, or commissioners ap-
pointed for such purposes by the Governor of the
state or a notary public. When any of the officers
above mentioned is authorized by law to appoint a
deputy, the acknowledgement may be taken by such
deputy in the name of his principal.
The following is the general form of certificate
to be made by the officer taking the acknowledgement,
to-wit :
State of County of , ss.
On this day of , in the year
before me (here insert name and quality of the
officer), personally appeared , known to

Taxes.
Paya.ble in one or two installments on or before
the last day of January and July, annually. Delin-
quent February and August 1, annually.
Property owned and held in any county on the first
day of May in each and any year shall be subject to
tax assessment for such year. The state pays no part
of the expenses incurred in the collection of taxes. A
mortgagee may protect his interests by the payment of
taxes on the mortgaged property, and reclaim the same
with twenty-five per cent per annum. Such payment
of tax is an additional lien upon the mortgaged prop-
erty. Premptions and homestead entries are taxable
before patent issued and if located before first of May
are taxable for that year. Taxes may be paid one-
half in January and one-half in July in each year.
Where there is no agreement, on property purchased
between December 31 and July 1, the grantee must
pay the taxes, and where purchased between June 30
and January 1, the grantor must pay them. Property
on which taxes remain unpaid is sold about October 1.
It is the duty of every person subject to taxation to
attend at the office of the treasurer between the first
day of December and the first day of August of each
fiscal year, and pay his taxes ; and if such person shall
neglect and fail to pay such tax until after the first
day of August following the levy of the same,
the treasurer may make the same by distress
and sale. All taxes shall be due and payable one-half
on or before the last day of January and the balance
on or before the last day of July of the year following-
the one in which they are assessed. In case the first
installment of one-half the tax is not paid prior to
February 1, then there snail be assessed against such
installment of tax a. penality of one per cent for each
month or fractional part thereof until paid, provided
310 LAWS AND FORMS— COLORADO
it is paid prior to August 1. On the first of August
the unpaid taxes of the preceding year become delin-
quent and shall thereafter draw interest at the rate
of 18 per cent per anum, but the treasurer shall con-
tinue to receive payment of the same with interest
until the day of sale for taxes. The county treasurer
is required by law, prior to the 2 0th day of August in
each year, to make out a list of all lands and town
lots subject to sale, with an accompanying notice .stat-
ing that so much of each tract of land or town lots
described in said list as may be necessary for that
purpose will on a day specified thereafter, be sold by
him at public auction at the county treasurer's office
for the taxes and charges thereton and taxes
and charges against the owner thereof for
personal property. Ditches and canals are exempt
from taxation when they are used exclusively ib'y the
owners or stockholders, but are subject to taxation
when water is sold therefrom to consumers. Mining
claims are taxable. The assessment of mining claims
is based on the gross proceeds and is not to exceed
one-fifth of the value of such gross proceeds, provided
the value of the mining claims is over one thousand
dollars. It is the duty of the town, city and county
treasurers to mail notice to each person from whom
taxes are due. The treasurer issues his certificate of
sale to the purchaser of property at a tax sale. Such
certificate of sale is assignable, and by 1899 law draws
2 4 per cent per annum interest for first six months,
18 per cent second six months and 12 per cent re-
maining period. Prior to 1899 tax certificates drew
3 6 per cent first six months, 30 per cent second six
months and 24 per cent thereafter. Purchasers may
pay subsequent taxes. Land may be redeemed from
such sale at any time within three years from date of
sale, and at any time before the execution of the
treasurer's deed, by the payment to the county treas-
urer of the amount for. which the land was sold, with
interest thereon from the date of sile at the rate per
cent per annum bid by purchaser at such sale not to
exceed the rate of 24 per cent per annum for the first
six months, 18 per cent per annum for the subsequent
six months and the remaining period at the rate of 12
per cent per annum together with the amount of alJ
taxes accruing on said real estate after the sale paid
by the purchaser and endorsed on his certificate
of purchase with interest thereon at the rate
of 12 per cent per annum on such taxes paid subse-
quent to such sale. Provided that from the time
when the purchaser is entitled to a deed such taxes
shall bear interest at 8 per cent per annum arid no
more up to the time of applying for said deed. After
such three years, purchaser may have a deed from
the treasurer which shall be prima facie evidence of
the regularity of the treasurer's act in that behalf.
Deeds issued on sales for special improvements in-
stead of general taxes are not prima facie evidence
of regularity of proceedings, but the holder of deed
must prove regularity of proceedings in such cases.
Taxes are a perpetual lien upon real estate and per-

sonal property until paid. Mortgagee may pay de-
linquent taxes or redeem as aforesaid, and in fore-
closure suits recover judgement for the amount with
interest at 2 5 per cent per annum. Agents are liable
to their principals for not listing. All moneys of
non-residents kept and loaned and used within the
state, for the purpose of investment and profit are
subject to taxation the same as personal effects and
choses in action of residents, but only for state, coun-
ty and general school purposes. (The rate of taxation
in Denver and other large cities is comparatively low.

Witnesses or private seals are not necessary to the
validity of. a deed. It is not necessary for the husbancf

dower in the state." The following is the form of

Bridgeport, Conn.
Taxes.
On or before October 15th of eacn year the assessors
of each town are required to give notice requiring
all persons liable to pay taxes to bring in lists under
oath, of the taxable property belonging to them on
October 1st of the same year. Lists filled out are to
be returned on or before November 1st, a separate
description of each parcel of real estate being in-
cluded. In the City of Bridgeport notice must be given
on or .before September 1st ; and the lists are of prop-
erty owned on September 1st and must be filed on or
before October 1st.
If the resident taxpayer neglects to return such
list, assessors are required to make a list for him
and add ten percentum thereto.
Taxable property of non-residents is arranged by
assessors in separate lists and valued by the assessors
acording to the best information to be obtained.
When the assessors complete their lists, arranged in
alphabetical order, they must -be lodged for public in-
spection in the town clerk's office on or before January
15th, except in towns of over 10,000 inhabitants where
they are lodged in the town clerk's or assessors office
on or before January 31st.
All taxes are assessed as of October 1st (except
in the City of Bridgeport where it is September 1st)
and payable at various times, depending on the votes
of each town, between March 1st and July 15th of the
following year. As between grantor and grantee, if
nothing is stated in the conveyance, the grantor in a
deed dated after October 1st (in Bridgeport after
September 1st) must pay the taxes. The grantee,
however, must be prepared for the contingency of the
grantor's default, for the taxes become a lien upon
the real estate itself.
The rule of valuation is the present true and just
value. Market value and not value at forced or auc-
tion sale is considered. In actual practice real estate
is put in the tax list, as a general rule, at about
three-quarters of the market value ; in some towns
as low as one-half ; and in Bridgeport at full value.
All land to be set in the list of the town where situ-

ment of the time and place of payment of taxes.
Taxes not paid within one month after same become
due draw interest at the rate of nine percentum. The
time set by the collector to receive them is the time
when taxes become due.
If any person fall to pay taxes, the collector makes
demand on such person, if a resident of the town, or
LAWS AND FORMS-COI^NECTICUT 313
•t: 1 — . i
leaves a written demand at nis usual place of abode.
If a non-resident of the town collector makes demand
or deposits in the mail, postage prepaid, a written de-
mand for such tax, addressed to last known address.
After such demand, collector may levy on the taxable
personality of such delinquent, as in executions, and
in default of such personality he may enforce by levy
and sale of any lien on real estate, or levy on body of
delinquent.
Interest of any person in real estate which is
leg-ally set in his tax list, shall be subject to a lien
for such taxes as are laid on such interest. Such
lien shall exist from the first day of October of the
year previous to that in which taxes become due
until one year after taxes are due. While lien exists
and before it is continued by certificate it is subject
to levy and sale completed before its expiration. Col-
lector may bring suit for foreclosure of tax liens.
Court limits time for redemption or orders sale of
property.
The mode of selling land for taxes is as follows,
briefly : Collector makes duplicate notices of his levy
of tax warrant, containing name of tax payer, amount
of tax, description of property, and time and place of
sale, one of which is posted on sign post and the other
filed in town clerk's office not more than ten weeks,
nor less than nine, before time of sale. He also pub-
lishes such notice at least once a week for three suc-
cessive weeks in a town, or if none in the county,
newspaper, beginning not more than ten nor less than
nine weeks before time of sale.
He also mails a similar notice to the delinquent,
and to any other persons who are interested. The
sale is by public auction, and the collector sells enough
of the estate to pay the tax and charges, and within
one week after sale executes a deed to purchaser,
which is lodged in the town clerk's office for one year
unrecorded. If the delinquent or any other person
interested in the estate, within the year pays or ten-
ders to the purchaser the amount paid by him with in-
terest at twelve per centum, the deed is delivered to
to him, who, if not the person primarily liable for
the tax shall have a claim against the person primarily
liable for the tax, for the amount so paid. If pur-
chase money and interest be not paid within the year,
the deed shall be recorded and be of full effect.
Collector may continue the tax lien by recording a
certificate to that effect in the town clerk's office with-
in the first year after tax becomes due, and thereon
the lien shall continue, with interest at seven instead
of nine per centum, until paid. No sale is good unless
notice is given to encumbrancers toy mail postage pre-
paid at least four weeks before sale.
Conveyances.
All conveyances of land shall be in writing, sealed
by the grantor, and subscribed with his own hand, or
with his mark with his name thereto annexed, or by
his attorney authorized for that purpose by a power
314 LAWS AND FORMS— CONNECTICUT
executed and acknowledged in the manner provided
for conveyances. The deed must be acknowledged by
the grantor or by such attorney, to be his free act
and deed.
Two witnesses are required to properly execute a
deed of real property, but a deed defective in this
particular is good to convey the equitable title, and a
deed of land in Connecticut executed in another state
in accordance with the laws of such state is valid.
The^ word"Seal" or the letters "L. S." are sufficfenL
as a seal.
A wife need not join in the conveyance of husband's
property, as dower only attaches to that property of
which the husband dies siezed.
A wife married before April 20, 18 77, cannot give
good title in a conveyance of her own real estate
unless her husband joins or unless the husband and
wife, during marriage, enter into a written contract
for the mutual abandonment of all rights in the prop-
erty of each other, and the acceptance instead, of the
rights given by statute to persons married after April
20, 1877. A wife married after April 20, 1877, may
convey her own property without joining her husband.
Acknowledgements may be taken, if in the state, by
a judge of a court of record, a clerk of the superior,
common pleas, or district court, a justice of the peace,
commissioner of the superior court, notary public (with
or without official seal), town clerk or assistant town
clerk ; or if within any other state or territory of the
IT. S., before a commissioner of the state of Connecti-
cut residing in such state or territory, or any officer of
such state or territory authorized by local law to take
the acknowledgement of deeds. But no officer shall
have power to take such acknowledgement except
within the territorial limits in which he may perforin
the proper duties of his office.
No conveyance shall .be effectual to hold lands
against any other person but the grantor and his
heirs, unless recorded on the records of the town in
which the lands lie.
All conveyances of land of which the grantor is
ousted by the entry and possession of another, unless
made to the person in actual possession, shall be void.
The commission - and oath of office of a notary
public must be recorded by the clerk of the superior
court in the county in which such notary resides. Any
notary public may exercise his functions at any place
in the state. It is not necessary for a notary public
to state the date of expiration of his commission.

Taxes.

basis of about two-thirds of its actual value. On
default of payment of taxes for two years, property
is sold for the same, irrespective of who may be
the holder. Taxes are due and payable semi-annuallv,
in November and May. One-half of the tax levied
becomes due and payable on the first day of No-
vember next succeeding the completion of the assess-
ment, and the remaining half of such taves becomes
due and payable on the first day of May next fol-
lowing to the collector of taxes of the District of
Columbia. No dis count allowed. The semi-annual
taxes are delinquent after the close of the months
of May and November, and a penalty of one (1) per
cent for each month is imposed on the amount of
tax in arrears. The property is advertised for sale
in pamphlet form by the District, and in the daily
papers.
Two years are allowed in which to redeem property,
after sold, by the payment of the taxes, penalty and
costs due at t»he time of the offer of the sale and

erty so purchased.

pay all taxes then due .on said lands and take up all
outstanding tax certificates on same held by the state.

to the clerk of the Circuit Court in the county where
the land lies, two years after date of sale, is entitlei
to a tax deed. The clerk is required to publish notice
of application for tax deed in a newspaper published
in the county where the lands lie for 30 days pre-
ceding the issue of tax deed, and is required to mail
a copy of the notice to the owner or the person to
whom last assessed, in case his address is known to the
clerk.

purchaser of such tax title goes into actual possession
of the land or brings suit within one year to recover
possession.
Suits to set aside tax deeds must be begun within
four years from the date of same.

Taxes.
All property must be given in for taxation to the
State and County Tax Receiver of the county where
it is located, or in the case of certain corporations
to the Comptroller General.
If the valuation at which it is returned is consid-
ered too low the Tax Receiver may assess it within
thirty days after the return is made, and if the tax
payer is dissatisfied, arbitration is then had.
The state's part of the tax is assessed each year
by the Governor and Comptroller General under the
direction of the legislature upon the whole taxable
property in the state, as soon as its value is ascer-
tained.
The county's part of the tax is assessed upon
all taxable property in the county, and its rate is
fixed either by a Board of County Commissioners or
by the County Ordinary.
The state and county taxes become a lien upon
real estate sometime between January 1st and April
1st of each year. The exact day upon which they
become a lien is fixed each year by a proclamation
of the Governor.
State and county taxes are payable from October
,1st to December 20th, of each year. They are not
payable in installments nor is any discount allowed
for early payment.
After December 20th in each year fi. fas. may ,be
issued and at once levied and the property subject
to the tax be at once advertised and publicly sold
after advertisement once a week for four weeks in a
newspaper of the county where the property is lo-
cated, and a tax deed may be made to the purchaser
on the day of such sale.
Property that has been sold at tax sales may be
redeemed at any time within a year by paying the
purchaser the amount paid and ten per cent premium.

low the signature of parties conveying real property,
and all such conveyances should ,be executed before
two witnesses, one of whom should be either a notary
public, a clerk of a court of record or a justice of the
peace, etc., or if executed without the state before

sonality and realty is assessed at its true value in
money, and taxes take precedence over all judge-

N. R. At the last session of congress, an act was
passed, called the "Enabling Act," authorizing the
formation of a new state, out of the territories of
Oklahoma and the Indian Territory.
Under the provisions of this act a Constitutional
Convention is authorized to be held by delegates to
be elected by the people, fifty-five from each terri-
tory and two from the Osage Nation making a total
of 112. These delegates have been elected and a
constitution framed but the election upon the adop-
tion of the same and for state and county officers,
provided for in the enabling act has been temporarily
enjoined by the court on account of a controversy
growing out of a question as to the power of the
constitutional convention to subdivide some of the
larger counties in Oklahoma into smaller ones. It is
thought however at this writing (June 17th) that the
injunction will be dissolved toy the Supreme Court of
Oklahoma on June 2.5th. If so, the Governor of
Oklahoma will then call an election, of which 60 days
notice must be given. At this election the people
will vote upon the adoption of the constitution and
elect a full quota of State and County Officers.
S'hould the constitution foe adopted, of which there
appears to be no doubt, it then becomes the duty
of the president to issue his proclamation, within 20
days, declaring the admission of the new state into
the Union.
The constitution as drafted, subdivides the
Indian Territory into counties, and, upon the
issuance of the president's proclamation the two
territories at once, become a fully organized state,
with a complete organization in all its departments,
including five representatives in congress. The first
legislature will elect two United States senators.
In so far as applicable and in uniformity to the
enabling act, all laws of Oklahoma will immediately
become in force in the Indian Territory upon the
admission of the new state.
Until the formal admission of the state, every-
thing, including recording districts, in the Indian Ter-
ritory, remains exactly the same as before the pas-
sage of the enabling act. ,

Taxes.
Taxes are assessed on real and personal property
on the 1st day of March of each year, and on basis
of a fair cash value. They are liens from jand after
March 1st of each year, and are payable^from Jan-
uary 1st until the first Monday of May^ following-.
Taxes become delinquent after that date. S'ame may
be paid in two installments, one-half before the
first Monday of May and the other half on or before
the first Monday in November. Failures to pay
first installment when due makes it become de-
linquent and 10 per cent penalty is added, and upon
failure to pay second installment, a penalty of 6
per cent on amount of tax accrued is added. If not
paid by second Monday in February the property on
that day will be sold by treasurer for payment of
taxes and penalties. The property may be redeemed
within six months by payment of amount bid with
10 per cent penalty, if redeemed after six months
and within one year the penalty added is 15 per cent ;
if redeemed after one year and before two years, the
penalty added is 25 per cent. At the expiration of
two years the purchaser receives a tax deed and no
redemption can thereafter be made. Infants and in-
sane persons may redeem within two years after the
removal of itheir disabilities.
Tax titles are not absolute, as a substantial com-
pliance with provisions of the tax law is necessary,
and failure of same may be shown by owner and
deed defeated, but in such case the purchaser is en-
titled to a lien for amount paid and may foreclose,
and have sale by sheriff and from which sale there is
no redemption.
Property of transients who at any time during
any year may locate in any township, city, town
or village, and offer merchandise for sale shall be
appraised, entered on tax duplicate and taxes col-
lected immediately.

realty. (No witnesses needed unless parties sign by
mark. A married woman cannot go security for hus-
band or any other person, and if she does, same is

instrument under oath that loan was for her own use
and benefit.

trade. Twenty-five per cent of this actual value is
the assessed and taxable value. State and county
taxes become due and payable on the first Monday of
January, and one-half thereof may be paid before
the first day of March succeeding the levy, and the
remaining one-half before the first day of Septem-
ber following ; provided, where the half has not been

LAWS OF KANSAS
Relative To
TAXES AND CONVEYANCES.
Prepared expressly for .Montgomery's Real Estate
and Legal Directory, June 1, ,1907, by Rossington &
Smith, of the Topeka Bar.
Taxes.
Taxes upon all real property, not expressly ex-
empted therefrom, are assessed upon the actual money
value of the property.
As between grantor and grantee, where there is
no express agreement as to taxes, if land is con-
veyed between the first day of March and the first
day of November, the grantee shall pay the taxes
that may be assessed thereon for that year, but if
conveyed between the first day of November and the
first day of March then the grantor shall pay them.
The realty tax becomes a lien upon the property
November first and is payable to the county treas-
urer, one-half on or 'before December 20, and one-
half on or before June 20, of each year. If the
whole tax is paid on or before December 20 a rebate
of five per cent is allowed on the second half ; tout if
the first half be not paid on or before December 20,
the whole tax immediately toecomes due and is sub-
ject to a penalty of five per cent thereon ; and to all
tax unpaid on June 21 following an additional five
per cent penalty is added and the property goes to
tax sale.
All property to be sold at tax sale must be adver-
tised four consecutive weeks prior to the sale in
some newspaper published or (if none published) of
general circulation within the county, and sold on the
first Tuesday of September following.
The purchaser at tax sale upon payment of the
purchase price receives a certificate entitling him
to tax deed in three years, if the property is not re-
deemed within that time by payment to the county
treasurer of the amount for which said land was
sold, and all subsequent taxes and charges thereon
paid toy the purchaser, or his assigns, with interest
at the rate of fifteen per cent per annum.
In counties where the commissioners have adopted
the provisions of a statute providing therefor they
may authorize the county treasurer to bid off in
the name, of the county all lands sold for taxes, and
receive- no other bids thereon. All lands thus Nbid
off in the name of the county shall toe held toy the
county until the expiration of the three years from
the date of sale, subject only to the right of the
owner, his heirs, administrators, assigns, and mort-
gages of real estate sold for taxes, or his assigns,
to redeem th'e same. After the expiration of three l
years from the date upon which lands are so bid off
by the county, tax deed may issue thereon, or if
said lands are unredeemed, and no person shall offer
to purchase the same for the taxes, penalties and
costs due thereon, the county commissioners may
permit the owner to redeem the same, or may au-
thorize the county treasurer to execute and the county
334 LrAWS AND FORMS— KANSAS
clerk to assign tax-sale certificates for such lands
for any sum less than the legal tax and interest
thereon, as shall be in their judgment for the best
interest of the county : Provided, that no deed shall
be issued upon any certificate so assigned until six
months after such assignment has <been made.
Any interest of a minor may ibe redeemed from
tax sale during his minority, or within one year
after majority; and of idiots and insane persons
within five years after sale.
A tax deed is void unless recorded in the office
of the register of deeds of the proper county within
six months from the date of the issuance thereof,
but when so recorded vests the purchaser with the
legal title to the land, which can ,be avoided only
for fatal irregularities in the proceedings or sale.
If in proper form and duly acknowledged the deed is
prima facie evidence of the regularity of all proceed-
ings. Suits to avoid the sale or conveyance of lands
sold for taxes must oe commenced within five years
from the time of recording of the tax deed ; and a
party who seeks to recover lands sold for taxes,
claiming under a tax deed, must bring his action
within two years after his cause of action accrues.
Where a tax deed holder is defeated in an action
for the recovery of the land the successful claimant
shall, before being let into posession, pay to the holder
of the tax deed or party claiming thereunder, the full
amount of all taxes paid on such lands, with all in-
terest and cost allowed by law up to the date of said
tax deed ; including the cost of such deed and all sub-
sequent taxes together with interest thereon at the
rate of twelve per cent per annum.
Conveyances.
The wife should join with her husband in the con-
veyance ; but this is not necessary if at the time of
the making of the deed she has never been a resi-
dent of the state, unless the land to be conveyed is
the homestead. The husband must join with the wife
in a conveyance of the wife's separate property.
The wife need not be examined apart from her hus-
band, nor relinquish her dower. Neither seals, scrolls
nor wafers are required in the execution of a deed
by a private person nor are witnesses necessary to
the validity of a deed. Corporations must execute
conveyances under the corporate seal. Any corpora-
tion may convey lands -by deed, sealed with the com-
mon seal of the corporation, and signed ,by the presi-
dent, vice-president, or the presiding member or trus-
tee, of said corporation, and such deed, when ac-
knowledged by such officer to be the act of the cor-
poration, or proved in the manner prescribed for other
conveyances of lands, may ibe recorded in like man-
ner and with the same effect as other deeds. Unac-
knowledged deeds may be proved before any officer
authorized to take acknowledgements. Powers of at-
torney (as well as deeds) to convey land must be
acknowledged and recorded. As 'between the parties,
and persons having actual notice thereof, conveyances
are valid even though not recorded.
The acknowledgement, if taken within the state,
must be before some judge or clerk of a court having
a seal, a justice, notary public, who must use an
official seal, a county clerk, register of deeds, or
IvAWS AND FORMS— KANSAS 335
mayor or clerk of an incorporated city. If taken
out of the state the acknowledgement must be be-
fore some court of record, or clerk or officer holding
the seal thereof, a commissioner of deeds for this
state, a notary public, who must use his official seal,
justice of the peace, or ■ any United States consul
resident abroad. If .before a justice of the peace
(out of the state), his official character must be
certified by the clerk of some court of record.
All written instruments effecting- real estate sit-
uated in this state, executed and acknowledged or
proved in any other state, territory, or country,
in conformity with the laws of such state,
territory or country or in conformity with the laws
of this state, shall be as valid as if executed within
this state in conformity with the provisions of this
.state for conveyances executed within the state.

contradictorily with the Assessors. If these tribu-
nals decide against him, he may prior to November
1st, appeal to the courts.
As soon as assessment rolls are completed they must
be filed with the recorder of mortgages. The taxes
act as first lien from day of recordation. Property on
which taxes are delinquent can be sold by tax collect-
ors after proper advertisement without intervention of
court proceedings. State constitution requires that
where owner is known he must be served personally or
at domicile with demand before valid sale can be
made. Taxes on movable property are due on the
first of the month succeeding the filing of the tax roll.

ation and no other : viz : All public property, places

Taxes.
State taxes are levied by an act of the legislature,
LAWS AND FORMS- MARYLAND 343
the rate being fixed every two years. County taxes
are assessed by the county commissioners of the
respective counties each year about the months of
May, June or July, on a basis cf about 70 per cent
of the actual market value of the property and are
a lien thereon from the date of their levy. They are
payable in one installment to the county treasurer
or district collector, as the case may .be, and become
delinquent on January 1st next, succeeding their
levy, from which Mate they bear interest at the rate
of 6 per cent per annum. On all state taxes paid
prior to September 1st, of the year for which they
are levied, a discount of 5 per cent of the amount
is allowed, on those paid prior to October 1st, a
discount of 4 per cent is allowed and those paid prior
to November 1st, a discount of 3 per cent is allowed.
No discount is allowed on county taxes. On January
1st next succgding their levy, if taxes are still un-
paid, collector will notify delinquents of the amount
due and that thirty days thereafter he will proceed
to collect same by distress or execution. He then
levies upon the property of the delinquent and after
giving twenty days notice of time and place of sale,
oy advertisement in at least one newspaper in the
county or city where property is located and by a
notice posted at the court house door, will sell the
property at public auction to the highest bidder for
cash. Twelve months from the date of sale are
allowed in which to redeem property which may be
done toy paying into the circuit court, to toe paid to
the purchaser, the purchase price with interest there-
on at the rate of 15 per cent per annum from date
of sale. At the expiration of one year from date of
sale, if redemption has not been made, a tax deed,
conveying absolute title to the purchaser will be
executed.
Conveyances.
It is necessary that a private seal toe made in
order to convey title of a grantor and all deeds or
other conveyances must bear the signature of at
least one legal witness.
It is not necessary for a notary public when taking
an acknowledgement to state in his certificate the date
of expiration of his certificate.
Dower right exists in this state and in order to
convey good title the wife must join her husband in
executing all conveyances. It is likewise necessary
that the husband join with the wife in conveying
real property, held or owned by her at any time
during the marriage. A married woman may ap-
point a trustee toy her separate deed and has all the
power to dispose of her property of every descrip-
tion by deed, mortgage, lease, will or other instru-
ment that husbands have to dispose of their prop-
erty, and no more. If, however, a married woman
be under eighteen years of age no conveyance made
by her shall toe valid unless her husband unites
therein. A married woman acknowledges an instru-
ment the same as a male grantor and need not toy
specific words state that she releases her dower. The
language "grant" and "convey" conveys her dower
right and any further right she* may have- in the
estate.

Taxes.
Due and payable between July 1 and October 1,
annually. Delinquent October 1, annually.
Taxes are assessed and collected by the cities and
towns. The legislature apportions state and county
taxes. Corporations are subject to franchise tax, so
that stock in companies incorporated under the laws
of Massachusetts are not liable to assessment direct,
but pay to the state a tax substantially equivalent
to the rate of taxation on other property. Certain
religious, charitable and educational institutions are
exempt. The assessment is as of May 1, and lien
takes effect as of that date for each year's taxes.
Real estate is not subject to double taxation.. That
is, it is apportioned between mortgagor and ' mort-
gagee, unless, as is usually the case, the mortgagor
agrees to pay all taxes, In case of sale of real
estate for non-payment of taxes, there is two year's
right of redemption.
Conveyances.
To be valid conveyances of real estate must 'be
under seal, a scroll being insufficient. Witnesses are
not necessary. Release of dower must be explicitly
stated in deed, wife's merely joining in being insuf-
ficient.

on the second Monday of the following May, upon
notice by the county auditor, posted at least ten
days before sale and twice published in a newspaper,
the first time at least fifteen days before sale.
The land is sold to the bidder who will bid the
amount due thereon at the lowest rate of interpst
not greater than 12 p^r cent. It is bid in for the
state at amount due and at rate of 12 per cent if
no one bids such amount at a lower rate.
SUibsequi nt taxes thereafter becoming delinquent
may, before sale of land therefor, be paid by the
holder of a tax certificate, and the same, bearing
12 per cent interest, attaches to his certificate. After
lapse of three years from date of tax sale, the holder
of tax certificate may present same to the county
auditor, who will issue a notice of expiration of re-
demption to the person in whose name the land is
assessed. Sixty days after service of such notice
upon party to whom land is assessed, or upon occu-
pant, or by publication in default of either the right
of redemption is barred, and the tax title becomes ab-
solute. The right to redeem exists until such notice
is given.
The tax certificate itself then becomes a deed en-
lit led to record. It can not be recorded before ex-
piration of redemption period.
Lands sold to the state and not redeemed within
three years are no longer redeemable, but such lands
are subsequently sold as forfeited lands and a notice
of expiration of redemption must be given by the
purchaser substantially as in other tax sales, where-
upon if not redeemed a deed is issued to the pur-
chaser by the state.
Personal taxes are due and payable January 1st,
and become delinquent March 1st, whereupon a pen-
alty of 10 per cent attaches, and they are placed
in the hands of the sheriff for collection. Upon the
sheriff's failure to collect, they are put in judgment
at following term of court and no property is exempt
from sale under execution issued thereon.
Conveyances.
All deeds must be attested by two subscribing wit-
nesses.
Husband and wife must join in all conveyances
of real property.
A married woman uniting with her husband in the
execution of a deed, should be described in the
acknowledgement as his wife, but no separate ex-
amination in respect to release of dower is required.

Taxes.
Real estate is assessed once in four years, it its
actual value, as a basis of valuation for taxation.
Such assessment is subject to annual amendment to
cover improvements. Taxes are levied in June of
each year ; become a lien October 1st, and become
delinquent May 1st of the following year, after which
time they :bear ten per cent interest. The rate of
taxation is fixed by state iboard, on ibasis of one-
fifth of the actual valuation. Lands are sold in No-
vember of each year for delinquent taxes. Two years
thereafter (and until deed issued) are allowed the
owner or lienor of such lands for redemption. There-
upon, and at any time within three years there-
after, if not redeemed, treasurer's deed may issue.
Instead of taking deed, or upon the surrender of the
same, the tax-purchaser may foreclose his lien, at
any time within three years after the expiration of
such redemption period. The owner of land, in such
case, has an additional two years, after such fore-
closure sale, to redeem therefrom. If the tax-pur-
chaser fail to take out deed, or to commence fore-
closure proceedings, within five years from such tax-
sale, his lien becomes barred. If the tax-sale .be
to a city, county or village, foreclosure proceedings
may ibe commenced immediately. After action is com-
menced, the land owner becomes liable for court costs,
taxes, interest at 15 per cent, and 10' per cent at-
354 UW9 AND FORMS-NEBRASKA

Conveyances.
Deeds are required to be attested by. at least one
witness and to be acknowledged. Private) seals are
not required. Dower and courtesy are abolished. If
executed in sister state, such execution (njay be ac-
cording" to the laws of this state, or of such sister
state.
Conveyance of homestead is void, unless signed
and acknowledged by both husband and wife. Both
should join in all conveyances. An acknowledgement
within the state may be before notary public, jus-
tice of the peace, judge or clerk of court; within a
sister state, before any officer authorized by the laws
of such sister state. If attested 'by the seal of such
officer, no further authentication required. If such
officer have no seal, then a certificate of magistracy,
under the seal of proper certifying official, must be
attached, verifying the signature of such officer and
stating that such execution and acknowledgement are
in conformity to laws of such sister state ; if exe-
cuted in foreign country, may be made in accor-
dance with the laws of such country, and acknowl-
edged before notary public or consul or other repre-
sentative of the United .States attested by his seal.
All officials taking acknowledgements should give date

amination of husband and wife is required in any
case.

Taxes. .
Taxes are assessed between the date of the levy
and the 1st Monday in September, in each year, on
an actual cash value 'basis, and become a lien on
real property the day they are levied. They are due
and payable between the 1st Monday in November,
and the 1st Monday in December, annually, to the ex-
officio tax receiver.
If not paid they become delinquent at the close of
official business on the 1st Monday in December of
each year, after which date a penalty of 10 per cent
is added. A list of delinquent taxes must be com-
pleted by the second Monday in December each year,
and the auditor shall immediately cause a copy there-
of to be printed in at least one newspaper published
in his county, for not less than one, nor more than
four weeks. And if no newspaper be published in the
county, then a copy of said list shall be posted by the
auditor in at least five conspicuous places within the
county. The cost of publication is charged to the
delinquent tax payer.
On the third Monday in January next succeeding
second Monday in December, the treasurer makes
out in duplicate a certificate, dated the day of sale,
stating (when known) the name of the person as-
sessed, a description of the land sold, the amount
paid therefor, that it was sold for taxes, giving
amount and year of assessment, and specifying the
time when the purchaser will be entitled to a deed,
if the property is not sooner redeemed.
iSix months are allowed within which to redeem
after sale, at the expiration of which period, if prop-
erty has not been redeemed, a tax deed issues and
title becomes absolute after sale under judgment of
the court. On all delinquent taxes which exceed the
sum of three hundred dollars the district attorney
must bring suit.
Conveyances.
Witnesses and private seals are not necessary to
the validity of a deed.
Husband and wife must join in conveying a home-
stead, whether a declaration thereof has been filed
or not, but the husband's name will suffice in con-
veying community or separate property. A married
woman can convey her own separate estate without
the consent of her husband, but she must acknowl-
edge such conveyance separate and apart from her
husband and the certificate must state that fact. Her
deed must be acknowledged; it cannot be proved by
a subscribing witness.

questions relating to the tax.
Transfers of stock in national banks in this State,
or of stock in domestic corporations belonging to a
deceased non-resident, shall not <be made until any
such tax payable thereon is satisfied, and depositaries
of securities belonging to a deceased non-resident are
required to notify the state treasurer before deliv-
ering up the securities to a foreign executor or
administrator.
Conveyances.
Every deed, mortgage and other conveyance of
real estate, every lease to run for more than seven
years from the making thereof, and every power of
attorney to convey real estate should be signed, sealed,
attested by two or more witnesses, acknowledged be-
fore a justice of the peace, notary public, commis-
sioner, minister or consul of the United States, and
recorded at length in the registry of deeds in the
county in which the land lies. A scroll is not a
sufficient seal. The magistrate need not certify iden-
tity of grantors nor date of expiration of his com-
mission, but if a justice without the state his official
character should be authenticated by secretary of
state or clerk of a court of record. Assignments
of mortgages need not be executed with above for-
malities nor recorded, and mortgages may be dis-

Husband and wife should join in every conveyance,
except in cases where such conveyance is of property
in which they have no beneficial interest. In cases

best that the other should sign.

LAWS OF NEW YORK
Relative To
TAXES AND CONVEYANCES.
Prepared expressly for Montgomery's Real Estate
and Legal Directory, June 1st, 1907, toy John T. Booth,
of 271 Broadway, New York.
Taxes.
The general laws of the state relating to taxa-
tion are contained- in what is known as the "Tax
Law," which was enacted in 1896.
This law applies generally to all parts of the
state, except the City of New York, in which many
of the provisions of the tax law are modified by
the Oreater New York charter, particularly as to
time and mode of assessment and the time when
taxes are payable.
All real property within tne state, and all person-
al property situated or owned within the state, is
taxable, unless exempt from taxation by law. Real
estate 'is taxable in the city, town or district where
it is situated, and personal property in the city,
town or district where its owner, if a resident of
the state, resides.
Non-residents of the state doing business in the
state are taxed on the capital invested in such busi-
ness as personal property at the place where such
business is carried on.
In the City of New York, the assessment rolls of
all real and personal property are made up between
September 1st and December ,1st. The rolls or tax
books are open between the second Monday of Jan-
uary and the 31st of March during which time ap-
plications may -be made to correct assessments. Taxes
are payable on October 1st following and up to
December 1st, after which interest accrues. If not
paid by January 15th, warrants for their collection
will ibe issued, under which property may be levied
upon.
In other parts of the state, outside of the City
of New York, the assessment rolls are made up be-
tween May 1st and July 1st, and are open for cor-
rection from August 1st to the third Tuesday of
August. Taxes are payable on or before February
15th following.
Corporations are taxable for state purposes, and
are also taxable in the cities or towns in which
they are located. The state tax is comparatively
small and is based upon the rate of dividends paid,
if any, or if not, upon the appraised value of the
capital stock.
Corporations engaged in manufacturing within the
state are exempt from the state tax to the extent of
the amount of their capital employed in manufact-
uring.
Corporations are required to file reports with the
state comptroller on or before November 15 th in
each year, upon which report is ibased the state
taxes
In the City of New York, corporations must file
with the city tax commissioners between the sec-
364 LAWS AND FORMS— NEW YORK
ond Monday of January and the 31st of March state-
ments upon which is based their city taxes.
Domestic corporations are required to pay an or-
ganization tax of one-twentieth of one per cent when
incorporating. Foreign corporations doing .business
in the state are required to pay a license fee of
one-eighth of one per cent on the amount of Capital
invested within the state.
Property passing by will or the law of descent
or distribution, is subject to Certain taxes varying
from one to five per Cent according to the amount
of the estate, and the degree of relationship. This
tax is fixed in the proceedings .in the surrogate's
Court, in which the estate is administered.
Conveyances.
A deed of conveyance must he made under seal,
and to entitle it to be recorded it must toe acknowl-
edged. No witness to the deed is necessary. The
seal may be either a wafer, or a scroll of the let-
ters "L». S." or the word "seal" may toe written.
A deed of conveyance made toy a married man
must be joined in by his wife, in order .to . trans-
fer the wife's right of dower.
A married woman may convey real estate owned
by her without Ifer husband joining in the deed.
In conveyances made by husband and wife, the
wife need not make a separate acknowledgement
apart from her husband ; both may join in the same
acknowledgement.
The following is a correct form of acknowledge-
ment toy an individual or individuals :

The private examination of the wife may be taken
by any official authorized by the laws of this state

thereof must conform to the laws of this state. It is
the duty of the official, when taking the private ex-

and see that the provisions of the statute are strictly
complied with ;" a failure to do this vitiates the deed.

property are assessed as of April 1st, are due and
payable in one installment, to the treasurer on Decem-
ber 1st, and as between grantee and grantor become
a lien on real estate December 1st.
Real property taxes, if unpaid, ibecome delinquent
March 1st on which date a 3 per cent penalty is
added. Additional penalties of 3 per cent April 1st
and June 1st following, and on November 1st follow-
ing, if still unpaid, a further penalty of 5 per cent
attaches.
After publication of delinquent lists in a newspaper
for three consecutive weeks, the first publication to
be not less than nineteen days prior to date of sale,
all real estate is sold for non-payment of taxes on
the first Tuesday of December of each year at public
auction, to the bidder who will pay the total amount
of taxes and costs and who will agree to accept the
lowest rate %of interest from the 'date of sale on the
amount of such taxes, penalties and costs so paid by
him, not exceeding 24 per cent per annum.
Personal property taxes, if unpaid, become delin-
puent March 1st on which date a 5 per cent penalty
is added together with 1 per cent per month interest,
on the amount until paid. Three years are allowed
in which to redeem land from tax sale, at the end of

provided ninety days notice of expiration of re-
demption period has been given but no deed will issue

of all the facts therein recited, and prima facie evi-
dence of the regularity of all proceedings from the
valuation of the land ^by the assessor up to the exe-
cution of the deed. The sale of land for taxes is not
invalid on account of such lands having been listed
or charged on the duplicate in any other name than
that of the rightful owner.
The right of the purchaser at tax sales cease abso-
lutely and are deemed forfeited and extinguished six
years from and after the date of the certificate, unless
possession is taken or a tax deed executed and de-
livered prior thereto.

Notaries must give in their certificates the date of
the expiration of their commission.
The wife need not join in a conveyance of land
belonging to her husband, nor 3s it necessary that the
husband shall join in conveyance of wife's land, pro-
vided in either case that the land is not a homestead.

accounts may direct a copy of the list to !be inserted
once in a newspaper published in the county or city
where the delinquent lands are situated.
To each copy thus printed and published, the treas-
urer shall attach a notice that the real estate or so
much as shall be necessary to satisfy the taxes, levies,
interests, costs and charges due thereon, will be sold
at public auction on the first day of the following
November or December court, between the hours of
10 a. m. and 4 p. m., in front of the court house, un-
less the amount due shall be previously paid to the
treasurer.
A period of two years from date of sale is allowed
in which to redeem, after which, if redemption has
not been made, tax deeds issue and the title becomes
absolute.
It is, however, provided that if the deed is not ob-
tained within a year after right to call for same ac-
crues, then the former owner, his heirs or assigns,
may redeem land at any time before the deed is ac-
tually made. If an individual does not purchase at
the sale conducted as outlined, the property is bought
in by the state through its officers, and when so ac-
quired an individual may at any time before the taxes

and penalties are paid, file an application for its
purchase, and after four months notice to the present
owner of record, as well as the owner at the time of
the delinquency, acquire a deed to the property, pay-
ing of course, all taxes and charges including a fee
to the clerk for the deed.
City and county taxes vary in amount in different
localities.
Conveyances.
No witnesses are necessary to the validity of real
estate conveyances but seals must itae attached thereto.
Natural persons may seal toy making a scroll with a
pen, or toy printed scroll. In the case of a corpora-
tion, impression of its corporate seal must be made
upon the paper, and in both cases the seal should be
acknowledged in the body of the instrument, as "Wit-
ness the folowing signatures and seals."
Husband and wife should join in all conveyances of
real estate, except where the deed is made to a
trustee to secure to the vendor the purchase money,
or where a deed of trust or mortgage is executed for
the purchase money, or part thereof, of the property
conveyed to the grantor or mortgagor therein, in
which case the signature of the grantor, or mortgagor,
alone is necessary.
Wife's acknowledgement is no different from that
of any other person. She does not have to acknowl-
edge the release of her dower as the acknowledgement
of the deed is sufficient.

not void the acknowledgement, nor affect the validity
of the deed, or other conveyance.
(Conveyance of Real Estate toy a Corporation)
There is no implied authority in any particular of-
ficer to convey its real estate. It is usually done in
pursuance of a resolution by the board of directors
in which some officer or other person is especially
authorized to convey. The resolution should toe cited
in the conveyance itself, and the corporate seal should
be attached toy the secretary or whomsoever, und^r
the laws, is custodian of the seal. The usual form in
the final clause in the deed is: "WITNESS the cor-
porate signature of said company toy its

corporate seal attested toy its secretary (or
whomsoever may be the custodian of the corporate

and Legal Directory, May 23rd, 1907, by William H.
Pratt, of Taeoma.
Taxes.
Due and payable on the first Monday in February
annually. Delinquent June 1, annually.
The fiscal year .begins on the first day of April,
and taxes are payable the succeeding year on real
estate to the county treasurer, as follows : On or
before the first day of February, after which they
become delinquent and bear interest at the rate of
1>5 per cent, provided, however, if the taxes are equal
to one dollar, one-half may be paid on or before the
31st day of May and the remainder will be extended
without interest and may be paid on or before the
30th day of November following; but if the remaining
half is not paid on or before the 30 th day of Novem-
ber, then it becomes delinquent and bears interest at
the rate of fifteen per cent per annum. A discount of
3 per cent is allowed on taxes assessed against real
estate if paid prior to March 15th of the year in which
they are due and payable. After taxes on real estate
are delinquent, the county treasurer is authorized to
issue and sell certificates of such delinquency to any-
one who desires to purchase the same, which certifi-
cates bear interest at the rate of fifteen per cent per
annum. Certificates of delinquency are prima facie
evidence that the property described was subject to
taxation at the time the same was assessed; that the
property was assessed as required by law ; that the
taxes or assessments were not paid at any time be-
fore the issuance of the certificate ; and that such cer-
tificate shall have the same force and effect as a
judgment execution and sale of and against the prem-
ises included therein." Three years after the first
day of December next following the date of delin-
quency, the holder of the certificate is required to
give notice to the owner of the property, that he will
apply to the superior court of the county in which
the property is situated for a judgment foreclosing
the lien against the property mentioned ; and the cer-
tificate holder is authorized to proceed by an action in
court to foreclose his lien for the taxes and interest
and have the property sold and thus clear the title.
When any property remains on the assessment roll
for which no certificate of delinquency has been sold,
the treasurer is required to issue a certificate to the
county or municipality entitled thereto, and deliver
the certificate to the clerk of the county, and the same
proceedings are to be had in the courts to obtain title
as in the case of sale of the certificate to an individual.
Personal taxes become due and payable after thirty
day's notice, given in February after the levy of taxes,
and if not paid at the expiration of thirty days, the
treasurer is authorized to distrain the personal prop-
erty and sell the same for the payment of the taxes.
IyAWS AND FORMS— WASHINGTON 393
Anyone owning real estate in the county may notify
the treasurer to charge his personal taxes to his real
estate, and can then pay the same at the same time
and same manner as he pays his taxes on his real
estate. The treasurer also has the right to charge the
personal taxes to the real estate of the party who
owes the personal taxes, on the assessment roll, and
thus make the personal taxes a lien on the realty.
Conveyances.
No witnessess or private seals are necessary to the
validity of deeds.
The husband and wife must join in the conveyance
of all real estate which has .been acquired subsequent
to marriage.
All property acquired by either spouse prior to
marriage, or acquired by inheritance subsequent to
marriage, is designated separate property and may
be conveyed by either without the other joining in
the transfer.

LAWS OF WEST VIRGINIA
Relative To
TAXES AND CONVEYANCES.

and Legal Directory, June 1st, 1907, by Williams,
Scott and Lovett, of Huntington.
Taxes.
The assessment of taxes ibegins April 1st annually,
and should toe completed toy June 20th. All property
shall be assessed at its true and actual value, that
is to say, at the price at which such property would
sell if voluntarily offered for sale by the owner
thereof, upon such terms as such property, the value
of which is sought to toe ascertained, is usually sold,
and not the price which might be realized if such
property was sold at a forced sale. A special as-
sessment of real estate has toeen made for the years
190 6, 1907 and 1908, and the values thereby ascer-
tained will toe used for purposes of taxation till the
year 1909 ; beginning with the year 1909, all real
estate, as well as personal property, will toe assessed
annually at the true and actual value, as aforesaid.
As 'between the grantor and grantee, taxes on real
estate are a lien as of the first day of April of each
year.
The sheriff is directed to commence the collection
yearly on August 1st, or as soon thereafter as he
receives copies of the land and personal property
books. In practice the collection usually toegins about
October 1st. While the sheriff, as ex-officio treas-
urer, is directed to collect, no demand for taxes is
necessary, and it is the duty of every person sub-
ject to taxation to attend to the assessment and
payment of taxes within the time limited toy law.
They are payable at one time, and no provision is
made for payment toy installments.
The sheriff is ex-officio treasurer of the county,
and of all school districts therein, and to him all
state, county and district taxes must toe paid.
A discount of two and ope-half per centum is made
when taxes are paid on or before the last day of
November.
They are returned delinquent on or before the first
Monday in June of the year succeeding the year for
which they are assessed, with interest added at the
rate of twelve per centum until they are paid. If
real estate is redeemed after it is returned delinquent;
interest will toe added at the rate of twelve per centum
per annum, and when redeemed after a sale, a com-
mission of five per centum to the sheriff, costs of sale,
and such taxes as may have been paid thereon by the
purchaser, with interest on the same, will be added.
Before it is returned delinquent, notice is given toy
publication for two weeks in two newspapers, and
posting at the front door of the court house.
LAWS AND FORMS— W^ST VIRGINIA 395
On or before November 1st in each year, the auditor
of state certifies to the sheriff of every county the
real estate delinquent for non-payment of taxes in
any previous year. Within ten days thereafter, the
sheriff causes a notice of sale to he published for four
successive weeks in a newspaper and posted for the
same time at the front door of the court house, and
on the first day of the next November or December
term of the circuit or county court, whichever may ,be
held first, or if no term of either be held in said
months, then on the second Monday in December next
thereafter, the real estate is sold for the said taxes,
interest, costs and commission, at public auction at
the front door of the court house.
Real estate may be redeemed within one year from
the sale, by paying to the purchaser the amount paid
by him thereon and such additional taxes as may
have been paid ,by the purchaser, with interest on said
purchase money and taxes at the rate of twelve per
centum per annum from the time they were paid, or
if the state purchased, by paying" into the state
treasury, within one year after the sale, the amount
of all taxes with interest and costs. An infant,
married woman or insane person, whose real estate
may have been sold during such disability may re-
deem the same within one year after the removal of
such disability, 'by paying the taxes, purchase money,
interest and costs, and such additional taxes as may
have been made by the purchaser, with interest on
the said items at the rate of six per centum per an-
num from the time the same were paid.
A deed may be made to the purchaser of land
sold by the sheriff for taxes, after the expiration
of one year from the sale, by the clerk of the county
court.
Title becomes absolute after the expiration of one
year after the sale, subject to the saving as to per-
sons under disability.
When the state is the purchaser, title vests abso-
lutely at the expiration of one year, but the land
must be sold by the state in a suit in equity insti-
tuted by the commissioner of school lands for the
county, and at any time before a final decree in that
suit, the former owner may redeem.
Conveyances.
A signature to a deed need not be witnessed. A
deed must be executed under seal, and the seal of
a natural person may be made by affixing to the
signature a scroll, or adopting as a seal any scroll,
written, printed or engraved on the paper by another.
A wife must join in a conveyance of real estate of
the husband, in order to release her right of dower
therein. A husband conveys his right to courtesy by
joining with the wife in the conveyance, and a deed
by a married woman to her real estate is void un-
less the husband joins.
A married woman living separate and apart from
her husband, or having a husband who is non
compos mentis, may convey real estate which is her
sole and separate property, if such facts be recited
in the deed, and if it is proven to the satisfaction of
the officer taking the acknowledgement that it is her
396 LAWS AND FORMS— WEST VIRGINIA
sole and separate property, and she is living separate
and apart from her husband, or that her husband is
non compos mentis, and it is stated in the certificate
of such acknowledgement that all of said facts were
shown to the satisfaction of the person taking the
same.
The acknowledgement of the wife may be taken
together with or separately from her husband. If
both acknowledge the writing at the same time, the
certificate shall be used as hereafter shown, and if
she acknowledge it separately, the same certificate
shall be used, except that in lieu of the words be-
tween the stars, the words should be, "do certify that
the wife of " When the acknowl-
edgement of a married woman has been so taken
and certified, the writing operates to convey her
dower in the real estate embraced in the writing
and all interest of every sort therein.
The following form of acknowledgement is prescrib-
ed by the code when husband and wife acknowledge
-a deed of conveyance jointly :

The certificate of acknowledgement of a corpora-
tion or joint stock association should be in form or
effect as prescribed in the form of husband and
wife down to the first star, and then as follows :
"do certify that personally appeared before

(or other officer or agent) of the corporation (or as-
sociation) described in the writing above (or hereto

affixed to said writing is the corporate seal of said

case may be), and that the said writing was signed
and sealed by him in behalf of said corporation (or
association) by its authority duly given. And the
said . acknowledged the said writing to toe the
act and deed of said corporation (or association)."
Acknowledgements are taken before a justice, notary
public, recorder, prothonatary or clerk of any court
within the United States, or commissioner appointed
by the governor of this state. When executed with-
•out the United States, they may be taken toefore a

faires, consul general, consul, deputy; consul, vice-

the government of the United States, to, any foreign
country, or the proper officer of any ' court of such
country, or mayor or other ' chief magistrate of any
city, town or corporation, and certified under the
official seal of any such person. If an acknowledge-
ment be before a notary without the state, he shall
certify the same under his official seal.
A deed is necessary to convey real estate or any
interest therein for more than five years. It must
be acknowledged in order to toe recorded, and is void
as to creditors and subsequent purchasers, for val-
uable consideration without notice, until duly admit-
ted to record in the county in which the real estate
embraced in the deed lies.
It is not necessary that a notary public, certify-
ing an acknowledgement within this state, shall state
in his certificate the date of expiration of his com-
mission ; nor is it necessary that a notary public
in another state, so far as the law of West Virginia
is concerned, when certifying acknowledgements to toe
used in! West Virginia, shall state in his certificate
the date of expiration of his commission, unless the
law of the state in which the acknowledgement is
taken requires him so to do.

The standard U. ,S. -bushel is the "Winchester bush-
el," which is in cylinder form, 18 y2 inches in diame-
ter and 8 inches deep. It contains 2,150.4 cubic inches.
TO FIND THE QUANTITY OF GRAIN ANY BIN WILL HOLD.
Rule. — Multiply the height, length and ibreadth to-
gether in inches and -divide by 2.150.4; the quotient will
be the numfber of toushels.
SHORT BUT ACCURATE RULE FOR SAME.
Multiply length, -breadth and height in feet together ;
multiply this by 45 and divide by '56 ; or, to sim-
plify: multiply by 4 and divide by 5.
Example. — A bin 16 feet long, 8 feet wide and 14
feet high will hold how many bushels?
16x8x4—1792.
1792x45—80640.
80640-^-56—1440. Ans. 1440 Bushels.
410 MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
TO FIND THE QUANTITY OF GRAIN WHEN HEAPED ON THE
FLOOR IN THE SHAPE OF A CONE.
Rule. — Square the depth and square the slant height
in inches. Take their difference and multiply by depth
and this product by .0005. The result will be the con-
tents in bushels.
The following is excellent for finding the interest
on any principal for any number of days. When the
principal contains cents, point off four places from the
right of the result to express the interest in dollars
and cents. When the principal contains dollars only,
point off two places :
4 per cent — Multiply principal :by the number of
days to run; divide by 90.
5 per cent — Multiply 'by number of days and divide
by 72.
6 per cent' — Multiply and divide .by 60.

FARM LOANS
More money is being invested in Farm
loans at present than ever before.
The Loan Agent to compete success-
fully finds a DIRECT connection for
cheap and elastic funds imperative.
Moneys obtained through a middle man
leave no profit and the funds of the large
life insurance companies, while cheap, are
surrounded with too many restrictions and
red tape to be desirable.
The funds of savings banks, large pri-
vate investors, and holders of trust funds
control the best farm loan business today.
4 'Bonds and Mortgages, ' ' Chicago, is the
oldest farm loan publication in this coun-
try and reaches the best class of buyers of
these securities whose confidence it enjoys.
A number of its subscribers invest from
$100,000 to $500,000 annually in farm
mortgages. It claims to offer the quick-
est and most effective introduction to the
best buyers of farm loans in this country.
