brine about not only tin equalization of assessment but also of taxation is one of the main problems which rural ttssesi- ors have to contend with today while it will cast over 20000 to erect the buildings including the dwelling on n 100 acre general purpose farm yet the farm will only sell for on an average of from 7000 to 10000 if the soil on a farm is poor hard to work or too wet to work until late in the spring this lessens the value of the farm no matter the cost of the buildings the same would apply to a farm in an area where the climatic con ditions caused n short growing sen- son for inntnnce while the soil texture in areas of northern ontar io is similar to that of some of the southern ontario counties yet the short growing season prevents the raising of certain crops this is an example of how location affects the farm value not only due to cli matic conditions but also due to lack of markets then we have farms which ire termed overbuilt or underbuilt where in the first com there are too many buildings or the build ings have 100 large an area for tif amount of acreage available for production and in the second case where there are too few hmldings or the buildings have too small an i area to properly store the produce stuck and machinery 1 study soil value for these reasons assessors have in the past few years been devot ing more study to the value of the soil from the productivity angle and less to the elaborate spread of buildings they believe that if coil cannot produce the buildings do not greatly increase the value of the land because no farm has value except as a means of production this of course does not include the farms which because of their prox imity to urban centres have po tential value as future industrial sites or for subdivision purposes undoubtedly the biggest head ache that rural assessors face today is the problem created by the influx of urban dwellers into the formerly rural townships this entry marie i possible by the development of motor transportoiiorr and good i roads has resulted in the growth of urban hamlets j unfortunately the natural desire of these new residents to enjoy some of the amenities they enjoyed in the urban municipalities from j whence they moved has created school problems and the installat ion of municipal services which were formerly not provided for by the farming community this has caused some distress to the farm areas ns taxation has risen but it really is a taxation problem and not an assessment problem fpr as suggested before the same rules of i assessment and equaii74itton which govern urban municipalities aso apply to rural areas in other words if a dwelling in an uvban municipality has an actual value of 15000 and is assessed at 50 per cent of value or 7500 then a farm which has an actual vac of 15000 must also be assessed for 15000 industrial property is somewhat in the same category as farm pro- 1 perty it has its greatest value when it is enjoying its best ee if the buildings are not suitable fn the type of manufacturing being carried on the cost of prod 11 c ion is naturally higher and therefore the industry finds it difficult to meet competitive prices 1 this factor creates a lass in th- nctual value which is reflected the assessment industrial mactfn cry buildings fit the machinery and not th reverse so if the value of farm land is lessened because it cannot produce then it follows that if in- dust rial buildings are outmoded part of their value is lost the sare of course would apply to retail 1 stores etc where the trend of population has changed or when modern shopping centres which have been opened up in a nearby area have attracted the trade for tunately these conditions are not nearly as applicable to residential property in
