The report of the county valuators
which was presented to the council at
this session is based on the valuation
of a certain percentage of the pro-
perty in each municipality, the valua-
tion of these parcels as made by the
county valuators is then •c,oinpared
with the valuation of the same par-
cels as assessed by the assessor of
the municipality and the percentage
of increase of the county valu-
ator's assessment over the assess-
ment of the municipal assessor found
in the properties valuated is ap-
plied to the Whole assessment of
the municipality-. In the town of
Goderich, for example, 142 properties
were valued by the county valuators,
andtheir valuation of these pro-
Porties is 8293,300, while the Goderich
assessor's assessment is $229,225, an
increase of 28 per cent. Increasing the
assessed valuation of the town (51,-
• 845,210) by the sante percentage gives
the equalized valuation as given by
the county valuators, namely, 521,-
361,900. The report of the valuators
shows the following changes from the
old equalized valuation which has
been used as tbe basis ,of the county
rates for the past twenty years.

impossible to estimate the value of
