MISCELLANEOUS.


1. The Auditor reports the borrowing capacity of the Town December 31, 1909, as $110,098.78, not taking the sinking fund into account.


2. The Treasurer's report shows that $107,000 was borrowed during the year in anticipation of taxes of 1909, and that of this amount $40,000 was outstanding December 31, 1909. Against this outstanding amount the Collector reports $60,698.73 uncollected taxes for 1909.


3. In figuring the tax rate, it will be seen that


(1) The larger the town grant the larger the tax rate.


(2) The larger the Metropolitan taxes the larger the tax rate.


(3) The larger the valuation the smaller the tax rate.


(4) The larger the corporation and bank tax the smaller the tax rate.


4. On the basis of a tax rate of $18.50 on $1000 (as this last year), it will be seen that


(1) $10,000 saved in appropriation by taxation saves about 90c in the tax rate.


(2) An increase of $500,000 in valuation saves about 80c in the tax rate.


80


SELECTMEN'S REPORT


5. The balances available for transfer as reported by the Auditor amount to $15,517.36. Last year it was $15,123.11.
