When you see those ^orn stalks, ten feet in height, you just know that they were grown on sonie farm down in the Iambus Illin- ois corn belt. But you are wrong. They were grown on Fifth street, Wilmette. ' All of which.goes to prove that E. Fred SecWer must be an efficient gardener, for he grew this tall corn at his own place at 210 Fifth street. He asks the question, "Do you know of anyone (farmers included) whb has sweet corn ten feet in height?" We don't, do you?

"||5ff§Si A 15 per cent horizor;^ reduc- tion in the cash valuation of all real estate and building property in Wil^ mette was secured this week from theboard of assessors of Cook Coun- ; ty by Edward Zipf, president of the Village, and Henry-tt«ick-, member of the Wilttiette park J board, working in co-operation with JGeorge R. Harbaugh, local assessor. The reduction will effect all property lying within the Wilmette village limits. It is estimated by village officials that the cut will lower the recently fixed cash valuations by $6,000,000, leaving the as- sessed valuations where they have been for the past, four years. . ., , ,â- -.,.,!%.. •' %:.£.^ May.

This will reduce the fair cash values about $6,000,000 and leave the as* sessed values about where they, were last year, with the exception that many inequalities were^adjusted; * r V "Bef^r^ the deduction was made ft gave tip various taxing bodies an df£ portunity ^of: increasing taxes^ m?r Wi^ mette about $100,000.
