MASTERTON COUNTY
DISCOUNT ON RATES. Ratepayers of the Masterton County Council are reminded that Thursday. August 7. is the last day on which rates lor the year 1941-42 may be paid if advantage is to be taken of the 5 per cent cash discount. The total rate levy for the current year is £28.182 8s and of this sum £5.528 10s 9d, or slightly more than 19 per cent, had been collected at the close of business yesterday. This represents approximately the same per centage of collection at the corresponding date last year. It is anticipated that the rate collections during the next few days up to August 7 will be fairly heavy, since there is usually a last minute rush to take advantage of the discount offered by the council for prompt payment. The office of the council closes at 4.30 p.m. on Thursday, but any rates posted and bearing the Post Office mark of that date will be accepted as having been received in time to obtain the discount.
