|PJ and Adam at their daughter's wedding in July
PJ first wrote to us when we asked our Moosletter readers for their recommendations about where to buy kefir grains. She mentioned that our Cheesemaking 101 video had inspired her husband to make cheese with goat milk from their share of a nearby flock.
She said they first decided to make cheese when their foster children (who were Native Alaskans) were lactose intolerant. (It is estimated that more than 80% of Alaskan Eskimos and Indians are lactase deficient.)
The Bauer's children were able to digest goat cheese, so Adam and PJ dove right into the process of making cheese. And they've never looked back!
PJ wrote:
We did not adopt them, but it was both wonderful and challenging to have them live with us. We had the youngest one for over a year. Sweetest baby girl! All in all, we were foster parents for 20 years and adopted two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, to add to our biological two sons. At last count, over 20 kids have been with us over the years.
Now that all of our children are grown and flown, we are enjoying being of service in our community in other ways. Awful quiet around here, though...
Adam is from Connecticut and I am from Indiana originally. We met in Cordova, Alaska. I came up to can fish and stayed to open an Early Childhood Education Center. Adam was in the Coast Guard.
We shrimped our own boat when we were first married and he crewed on other folks' fishing vessels until the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill. We moved to Homer and have had many different jobs between us since then. Currently he is the Director of New Media for the Homer News. You can see lots about where we live by going to www.homernews.com and checking out the Spotted feature.
|Here are some of the cheeses that are aging right now. I keep them labeled with the type and date.
Ricki Carroll's "Home Cheese Making" book wandered into our house and began to provide fun and entertainment.
Around that time four foster children aged 4 and under showed up with milk allergies. A friend assured us that goat milk would solve all our problems, which led us to purchase a share in a goat, for a gallon of milk a week.
Sadly, the goat milk did not provide a cure for everyone. Between the goat milk and the milk provided by the well-intentioned food assistance for the children, we were swimming in milk that was not being consumed. In a panic, I built a cheese press one evening and moved our bookmark in Ricki's book from soft cheeses to hard cheeses.
|One night we found ourselves looking at more milk than would fit into the freezer and I decided we simply had to make cheese. I scrounged around the shop for scrap wood and a couple hours later a cheese press was assembled.
Every Monday we would take the children out to the farm and get our gallon of goat milk, and sometimes I combined that with a gallon or two of store milk and made cheese; mostly Manchego, Cheddar, and Romano.
|Here is one of our Manchego cheeses. This one was not waxed, we could not wait that long.
|Cheddar Cheese - This is the current cheese I am eating - it was made about 8 weeks ago from 3 gallons of milk. It was waxed about a month ago and will certainly not survive the week.
We hang our cheeses in our entryway, where it is cool, to dry and develop a rind before they are waxed. For a dollar, we found a fry daddy at the second hand store that works perfectly to wax cheese. The thermostat can be set at 50F and stays there.
This spring the children moved on to loving adoptive homes, but the goat milk continued to come. By summer time, we seemed to be the only milk buyer picking up milk on a regular basis (I guess some folks are not able to schedule a weekly trip to the farm). Our goatherd friends began to send us home with all the excess milk, we turned it all into cheese and returned half to them in trade.
All summer long I was making cheese from five or six gallons of goat milk a week. The only problem with a six-gallon cheese is I can't hold onto it and dip it into the wax pot. We simply oil the big cheeses with olive oil, and let them continue to hang in the entryway; according to Ricki, it's the perfect temperature for a cave, year round.
The goats have been dried up, and there won't be any goat milk until next spring. I will make some cheese from store bought milk, since I have gotten into the habit of eating a lot of cheese, but I must say, farm fresh milk does seem to make better cheese. The curds separate better and seem to hold the butterfat better.

Cristom vineyards
2008 Pinot Noir Jessie Vineyard Eola-Amity Hills, $50
This gently oaked pinot noir was made with Old World techniques such as wild yeast fermentation and minimal handling. Scents of spices, dried cherries, and leather make the unfiltered wine full-bodied and mature, while its earthiness and strong tannins will blossom after several years in the cellar.
Sokol Blosser
2008 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills, $38
Sokol Blosser's 2008 offering is distinctive for its strong aromatics, rich flavors of black cherries and baker's chocolate, and long finish. Soft tannins and a refreshing lightness make this an easy-drinking wine that will continue to develop for at least 10 years.
Soter Vineyards
2009 Pinot Noir North Valley Willamette Valley, $30
Crafted from a diverse selection of grapes throughout the north Willamette Valley, this wine reveals winemaker James Cahill's focus on regional representation and sustainable farming. Flavors of tart pie cherries; a candied, bright style; and a super-clean finish place it on the lighter side of the pinot noir spectrum, which makes it a great pairing for fresh, spicy foods.

Made with fruit from the exclusive Tualatin Estate Vineyard, founded in 1973, this earthy wine shines with sweet, candied-fruit flavors of blackberry, cherry, and vanilla. Generous tannins, balanced minerality, and a smooth finish make this a bottle for deep contemplation and richer food pairings.
Rating 89

This vibrant winery celebrates the dedication and passion of its late founder, Jimi Brooks, by producing high-quality biodynamic estate wines with heart.

Rating 88
Luminous Hills
2009 Pinot Noir Astra Estate Yamhill-Carlton, $35
Winemaker Byron Dooley's Astra uses a higher percentage of "whole cluster fermentation" than its sister wine from the Lux estate, which means brighter fruit flavors and an added spiciness. Emitting the aroma of dried flowers, herbs, and raspberries, this wine has enough tannic structure to develop for several years.
2007 Pinot Noir Guadalupe Vineyard Dundee Hills, $26
Bright flavors of cherry, strawberry, and a hint of cedar round out a beautiful wine harvested in the midst of October rainstorms. Made with grapes from a single old-vine vineyard on the west slope of the Dundee Hills, this wine shows the talent and perseverance of winegrowers in a tough year. Discover the difference a year can make: grab a bottle of the 2008 Guadalupe Vineyard for your own at-home vertical tasting.
Bethel Heights Vineyard
2008 Pinot Noir Casteel Reserve Eola-Amity Hills, $60
Fully destemming the grapes before fermentation (stems mean strong tannins) lent great fruit concentration to the finished product of this ripe, lush pinot noir. A mild, bright, and easy-drinking wine, this will be delicious with hearty fall dishes like root vegetable stews and braised lamb.
2009 Pinot Noir Lazarus Willamette Valley, $19
This budget-friendly pinot is ready to drink and full of juicy, ripe fruit flavors. Uncomplicated, pretty, and with enough earthiness and complexity to keep things exciting, this clear, unfussy wine is a great choice for fall.
Domaine Serene
2007 Pinot Noir Evenstad Reserve Dundee Hills, $58
The latest vintage of Domaine Serene's flagship wine leaps out of the glass with scents of cherry, raspberry, and toasted spices. Silky tannins, a smooth, long finish, and a savory edge make this a lovely bottle for easy drinking and food pairing.
Et Fille
2009 Pinot Noir Maresh Vineyard Dundee Hills, $42
The storied Maresh Vineyard has been producing quality pinot noir grapes since 1984, and continues to lend the balanced strength of old vines to Et Fille's 2009 vintage. Bright tannins draw out flavors of red cherries, black currants, and plums.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, there's been a lot of glamour surrounding the dance world in the past few weeks. From the Emmy nominees-like Allison Holker in an Oliver Tolentino evergreen gown and Travis Wall in Armani-walking the red carpet, to the haute couture costumes for the NYCB gala, (not to mention the looks that night from SJP and Milleportman), I've been a little fashion-ed out.
That was until I saw one of Hollywood's biggest stars at the New York City Dance Alliance Foundation event this Sunday night.
Catherine Zeta-Jones walked the red carpet at NYU's Skirball's Center for the Arts wearing a dazzling, floor-length silver dress before receiving the 2013 Ambassador For The Arts Award during the foundation's Bright Lights Shining Stars gala. But what made her appearance even more special was her message: Hard work and perseverance really can make dreams come true. We learned that before she starred in The Mask of Zorro with Antonio Banderas, and before she played Peggy Sawyer in the West End production of 42nd St in London, she was simply a studio kid: Cat from the Hazel Johnson School of Dance in Wales.
Her humble and humorous acceptance speech painted a picture of any hopeful dancer or musical theater triple threat: The time that Cat asked her mother why couldn't she have married a redhead, instead of her father, so that she could play Annie. Or the time she pined for the part of Liesel in The Sound of Music at a regional theater, but had to settle for Brigitta because she was too little.
Zeta-Jones' words were especially fitting for the evening as a whole, which was devoted to helping aspiring professional dancers go to college. This year, NYCDAF has awarded $3.4 million in scholarships, including a $10,000 award sponsored by Dance Magazine. And last night, the foundation handed out even more money, ranging from $5,000 to $10,000, to be used on any college program of the dancer's choice
While the rest of the evening was full of song (Bring It On's Adrienne Warren belted out "The Best is Yet to Come," and Joanne Borts from Once gave a moving rendition of "Send in the Clowns") and dance (Clifton Brown performed Jessica Lang's famousSplendid Isolation II excerpt, Charlotte d'Amboise led a rousing tribute to Zeta-Jones' performance in "All That Jazz" fromChicago, and 10-year-old talent Luke Spring earned a standing O for a killer tap improvisation), the best moments really were watching the NYCDA students' college dreams come true. Well, that and watching Cat from the Hazel Johnson School of Dance pose for cameras on the red carpet in the same room as the rest of us.

Get the Most Out of Your Bow
Tips that will help you maintain and care for your bow whether you're just starting out or an established professional.
Pernambuco vs. Carbon Fiber
We explore the differences between pernambuco and carbon fiber bows.
Bow Concerns
We provide answers to some of your common bow concerns.
SHAR Fusion Carbon Composite Violin Bow
Instrument: Violin
Level: Beginning
For years string teachers have told us that fiberglass bows are a durable and practical choice for active young students and their budget-conscious parents. But because they lack the finesse and handling properties of wood or carbon fiber bows, teaching bowing techniques can be difficult. We listened to our colleagues and set out to find a solution. The result is the SHAR FUSION student bow. Utilizing high tech composite of carbon fiber and fiberglass, the SHAR FUSION is strong and priced right. But best of all, the SHAR FUSION performs like much more expensive wood or carbon fiber bow. Try one today!
"When considering a new bow for their student, teachers and parents alike have expressed their desire for a well-constructed bow that doesn't compromise its playability and responsiveness. I'm happy to say this bow is an excellent option for customers looking for a durable and practical bow, without inhibiting a young player's sound and technique development. Immediately after trying this bow for the first time, I noticed how easily the violin responded to it."
- William Kaltz-Hall, Violinist, Contact Center Representative
Canadian rock group Article One (www.articleonemusic.com), combines pop-rock accessibility with the hard-driving virtuosity and honesty of an indie band. Here's what Article One's world-class rock violinist, Matt Piche', has to say about the Shar Fusion bows that he uses in his performances:
"The Shar Fusion allows me to express all the passion and intensity that Article One's music demands, without wilting or breaking. Sometimes our shows get a little crazy - the rugged Fusion bow stands up to abuse better than any wood bow, yet it plays like a good wood bow. It's ideal for demanding music-making."
Guy Laurent® Pernambuco 2 Star Violin Bow - 4/4 size - Silver Mounted - Antique Finish
Instrument: Violin
Level: Intermediate
The antique finish of the fine pernambuco hints at the playing characteristics of the sophisticated bow. Firm stick imparts a warm sound for demanding passages.
Bows from the Guy Laurent® workshop are amongst our most popular, serving the most demanding advanced students and serious amateurs. In the tradition of the great French archetiers, we are proud to offer these impressive bows of fine character and outstanding playability. For the violist seeking a strong bow with very warm sound, excellent control and fast response, but without breaking the bank, look no further! Easily comparable to European bows costing twice the price, these master bows are from the finest workshops in China.
Presto® Impulse Carbon Fiber Violin Bow
Instrument: Violin
Level: Advanced
High Performance Bows for High Performance Players
You've worked long and hard to develop your skills and you have a repertoire of advanced techniques. You know what you want to express in your playing. Now, here is the perfect partner that feels your every impulse and responds in-kind. After three years of painstaking development and countless professional trials and tests, the new PRESTO® Impulse is born. Meticulous attention to every detail assures that the PRESTO® Impulse stands ready to accurately reproduce your every nuance, and nothing more. PRESTO® bows are only made with aerospace-grade fibers and resins. The engineering process guarantees longevity by eliminating "creep," a flaw in carbon-fiber manufacture that can warp a bow or diminish camber over time. All bows are thoroughly inspected, meaning only bows with the best craftsmanship are sent to our customers. Splendid tracking ability, superb control and a warm tone allow you to keep your mind, and your heart, on your performance.
When we set out to develop this new bow, we started with a list of "must-haves":
- The bow must feel alive and resilient, just like a fine-quality wood bow
- Weight and balance must be exactly like a traditional bow so that tedious re-learning of bowing techniques would not be necessary
- Each bow must conform to strict manufacturing standards, for consistency; yet, within defined parameters, the blending of carbon resins must be such that a variety of sticks would be made available for audition. In this way, a skilled violinist is able to discover the perfect PRESTO® Impulse bow
- Each bow must be fitted and finished by hand, to assure proper operation and hand-feel
"The Presto Impulse bow is remarkable. I was amazed at the response, clarity and tone it produces. This is a serious endorsement from me, as I have always shunned carbon fiber bows due to their lack of an "organic" feel. This bow feels and responds like a first rate bow in many ways. It doesn't produce a buttery tone like a great Pecatte or Simon, but it's the next best thing. Congratulations to Shar on a wonderful achievement."

Presto® Encore Carbon Fiber Violin BowREVIEWED ON: April 01, 2015
Great value!
reviewed by: DAVID BUNCH
This bow is well balanced. The stick is perfectly straight. The hair is top quality. It didn't take much rosin to get the bow going. I usually have a time getting new hair to grab. The tone is great and I find that I never squeak like I do on other bows. This bow is as good as the Fleur Di Lis. The only problem I had was I had to rub pencil graphite on the threads to smooth out the screwing process.

This bow is very tip heavy, therefore, unbalanced. Playing the lower portion of the bow is laborious - I do not recommend.

I find this little bow to be well made and should certainly handle the needs of very young students. It is sturdy and adjusts easily. It is also very attractive and 'grown up' looking which appeals to many youngsters.

white tip broke of just after a 3 month of practice, plus it is too "jumpy"
reviewed by: ALENA BELYAKOV
The white tip peeled out just after a few month of practice; also it is way to jumpy (in the middle of the bow it s so hard to control it without jumpiness, affects sound) - I can't stand extreme jumpiness of this bow, and gave out to my daughter who started a full size violin this year. I love my daughter's persistence on learning how to master playing with this bow without it jumping too much - she worked so hard and so many hours, but she begs me for a bow that feels like her old one. I have an old bow which I played for 10 years from different country, and bought this one because my old one's frog is worn out. Wish me a good luck on finding a good responsive, controllable bow, thank you.

Fantastic bow
reviewed by: Brett Omara
I've been using one of these bows for 3 years. I sold my 5,000 Pierre Fuchs bow because I liked this one better. It sounds and plays great. I use it for professional work in Opera Colorado and other orchestras, for rock shows with my touring group Spinphony, and have won auditions with it. Highly recommended. Although you will have a grumpy bow rehair person when they have to dig all the glue out of the frog...
Presto® Carbon Fiber Violin BowREVIEWED ON: October 24, 2014
reviewed by: LARRY STAFFORD
After reading the reviews on this bow, I bought one for a violin that I built for my niece. It got here in three days after the order was placed. That was one day ahead of schedule. Upon opening the package, I personally found the bow to be beautiful for the price. I don't play violin, I'm a guitar guy. but I took the bow and added a heavy coat of rosin then steel wooled the horse hairs to roughen them up so they would hold the rosin better. I then worked some more rosin into the hair. Then sent the bow along with the violin to my niece. my niece has been playing violin for about 40 years (she's not a kid), but didn't have a good violin to play on. After testing the violin and bow, she gave the presto 4/4 carbon fiber bow two thumbs up. She said that her old bow did not begin to compare to it. I can't give you more detail as I don't have the details. Do keep in mind this is right out of the box, so I'm giving the bow a five star rating.
Presto® Carbon Fiber Violin BowREVIEWED ON: October 24, 2014
Amazing bow has ability to do all of the bow attacks and techniques!
reviewed by: Teacher, KENNETH NIELSEN
Upon arrival of the Presto Carbon Fiber Violin Bow Black 4/4 Size, I immediately notice how it looked nice and very well finished and with a good appropriate weight and balance. As is recommended with any new bow, I rosined it up heavily after running a little sand paper over a new cake of rosin to rough up the new surface (I see others not understanding or knowing how to do this step.) Playability is nothing short of marvelous. I've owned bows costing over $3,000.00 and this bow is enough to embarrass the many bows which cost up in the hundreds and even thousands of dollars. The Presto Carbon Fiber Violin Bow Black 4/4 Size has the right bounce and action to do all of the over two dozen various bow attacks and techniques. To me, this bow is a real find and I congratulate the originators and manufacturer for producing a fine product. As the final test of quality I would rate the sound produced by the Presto Carbon Fiber Violin Bow Black 4/4 Size as bright and cheerful and able to swing into dark and moody tones at the whim of the player. This bow brings excellent 'voice' to my instrument and it is as an understatement that I say I am very pleased with it.
Imported Brazilwood Violin BowREVIEWED ON: October 09, 2014
poor quality
reviewed by: JULIE CARPENTER
I have had to replace this same bow 3 times in the past year. Twice the wedge of the frog that flattens the horsehair came out, and once the plug that attaches the hair to the tip came out. Each time we only had it for a few months before something would fall apart. Shar is good about replacing them, but I'm definitely going to upgrade to something with better quality.

Cast iron cooking has been a several hundred year tradition that often is passed down from one generation to the next. Cast iron itself, when well taken care of, can outlast two sometimes three owners. Even when it isn't well taken care of, because of its forgiving nature, it can be brought back and cook, bake, saute, grill, and more just like the day it was made. With skillets, pie pans, Dutch

The famed Italian film director Pietro Germi (his sharply observant and satirical films include The Immoralist, and Divorce Italian Style) began work on this comedy, but died before he could do more than write the screenplay. However, he lived long enough to choose Mario Monicelli as his successor. In the story, four friends keep their friendship alive and their Tuscan town lively by means of an endless series of practical jokes and pranks of various sorts. Perozzi (Philippe Noiret) works on the night desk of a newspaper, reporting on crime. Mascetti (Ugo Tognazzi), an aristocrat, has seen better days. They are joined in mischief by Melandri (Gastone Moschin) and Necci (Duilio DelPrete), an architect and a cafe-owner by profession respectively. When the town doctor (Adolfo Celi) manages to outwit the collective efforts of the four, he is soon invited to join their little club. The rhythms of life in a cheerful provincial town are effectively unveiled in this zany and affectionate film.~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

There was a stabbing atfray among some of the Italian laborers on the Brooklyn pipe line at Merrick Friday. Two brothers, Tony and Joseph Delfrio, had a quarrel, and two other men, whose names are not known to the authorities, "butted in" and attempted to act as peacemakers. The brothers turned on them and in the fight that followed stilletos were d^awn. The Delfrios got the worst of it, and one was cut about the head and the other on the arm. The wounds are tieep and painful, but are not thought to be fatal. The wounded men were patched up by a physician, and word was sent for the police to arrest the stab- bers. A search was made/of the woods about the scene of the atfray, but no trace of the men could be found. Through the real estate agency of E. R. Brindel, the Imperial Hotel has been rented to J. D.

The Public Service Commission has authorized the Nassau and Suffolk Lighting Co. to issue preferred six per cent capital stock to the aggregate amount of $430,000, the proceeds to be used for the extension and improve¬ ment of its plant and distributing system, for additional w )rking capital to the amount of $25,000, and for the payment of various obligations amount¬ ing to $87,500. The company is nper- ating in rapidly-growing territory, and it is'its intention to greatly in¬ crease its facilities. Wilbur L. Losee of Verona, N. J., was in Freeport last Wednesday and Thursday visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leander Losee, on Grove Street. Mr. Losee is well-known in Freeport, where he spent several summers with his uncle. Alex. Padgett on Raynor St., and won several prizes as a bicycle ri¬ der. The following article from a Montclair, N. J., newspaper, will be of interest to his old friends: "Wilbur L. Losee has received from Alexander Winton, head of the Win- ton Motor Carriage Company, a check for $250, third prize in the "upkeep contest" conducted by the company. The check was accompanied by the per¬ sonal congratulations of Mr. Winton to Mr. Losee upon winning the prize. Mr. Losee's success is gratifying to himself as well as his many friend.s. He won out over some 600 contestants in all parts of the United States and Canada. The competition opened on November 30 and closed on June 1, the Winton Company offering the prize to owner or chauffeur of a Winton "Six" who during the time specified, would show the greatest number of mileage with the least cost of repairs. Mr. Losee, when the contest opened, was running a fifty horse power machine and this was ouly entered. Monthly reports, verified through affidavits, show that the car in charge of Mr. Losee during the eight months of the competition traveled 10,595 miles with¬ out one cent being expended for re¬ pairs. The only expense attached to th^ maintenance of the machine was for tires and gasol,ene. The Winton which won the prize for Mr. Losee ia being used by him now as a passenger car. It has .seen much service, as is shown by its mileage record for six months. Mr. Lusee, the prize winner, is an expert chauffeur and a former Amateur bicycle racer, who came here a little over two years ago. He attained con¬ siderable fame in the latter nport, be¬ ing second in the national one-mile champioiiship race at the Pan-Ameri¬ can Exposition in Buffalo. Mr. Losee had for a team mate Ralph OePalma, the now famoas automobile driver." Catholic Fair Addresses by Arthur S. Somers of this place. Rev. C. A. Logue and others, were made at the opening of the sum¬ mer bazaar and lawn fete of the Church of Our Holy Redeemer .Saturday even¬ ing. The band of St. John's Orphan Asylum, Brooklyn, enlivened the oc¬ casion with music. Dancing will be a feature each evening until the bazaar closes, Tuesday evening of ne.<t v/eek. On the closing night ground will be broken for the handsome new church which has been under contemplation for some time, on the land located at the northeast corner of Ocean Avenue and Pihe Street. An impressive cere- mo<fy, at which Rev. P. J. McNamara, Vicar General of the Brooklyn Diocese, will preside, is to accompany the breaking of ground. Rev. John J. Frawley, C. S. S. R., Superior of the Redemptionists, will make the address of the evening. The new church, which will cost about $60,000, will be Romanesque in style, with clerestory fifty-five feet across the front, seventy-two and one- half feet to the top of tho cross, 138 fee: deep, augmented at the side v/ith campanile and chapel, bringing the to¬ tal width to ninety-three feet. The church will have a stately tower ris¬ ing to a height of 110 feet. The seat¬ ing capacity will be about SOO. The building will be of red brick, with white ornamental mouldings and trim¬ mings and green slate roof. The in¬ terior will be of ornartifental plaster and marble and fine woodwork. The site, which is now occupied by the Catholic Club house, will be cleared soon. The club house is to be moved eastward rf short distance on the .south side of Pine Street, where the church built nine years ago now stands. The proceeds of the baazar and fete will be devoted to the new church building fund. School Meeting William G. .Miller presided at the annual sch(Jol meeting Tuesday evening when Samuel R. Smith and Henry L. Crandell were re-elected trustees with¬ out opposition, and the budget for the coming year, of $38,778, was approved. Rev. Charles A. Logue, priest of the Catholic Church of Our Holy Re¬ deemer, appeared before the meeting and stated that last year he called the attention of the Board of Education to the law prohibiting religious exercises in public schools, and that no attention had been paid to his objections. He said that it was now his intention to bring the matter before the Stale Board of Education if the practice is continued. Elvin N. Echvards suggested having a committee of five appointed to dis¬ cuss the matter and report later. Trustee Crandell objected to this as he thought the matter was one for the Board of Education to consider. Prior to Mr. Edwards' motion, a motion had been made and seconded to adjourn and as the mover insisted on a vote the meeting adjourned with¬ out the committee being appointed. Mr. and Mrs. F. Hornbeck are en¬ tertaining a ten-pound boy since Sun¬ day. See adv. of Piano Player for sale, with electric attachment, in this issue of the Review.

Miss Louise Foster of East Rock¬ away has been spending a short vaca¬ tion with Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Shee¬ han of Freeport. Miss Ijottie Parkerson, on account of ill health, has gone to Eas>; Greenwich, R. I., to spend the .Summer. Frank Rose, after undergoing an¬ other operation in the Brooklyn Hos¬ pital, is able to be around again. Everitt. the deaf and dumb son of George B. Smith, proprietor of the Benson House, was held up by two men Friday evening and robbed of about $7. Saturday afternoon the new fire calls were tested on the whistle at the pow¬ er house,' under direction of First As¬ sistant Chief Clarence V^anRiper and Fire Coniinissioner J. Huyler Ellison. Several different numbers were given, all of which were correctly read at different points distant from the power house. Chief VanRiper has also placed on the telephones throughout the villa^je the numbers to be used for Are calls, , and also distributed circulars of in¬ formation as to the proper method of sending in a fire alarm. The new num- I'bers are in force from August I, and 1 will now be used in case of A fire. No Law for Supervisors to pay School Taxes School authorities will be interested in the opinion of Counsellor Alfred T. Davison, refering to uncollected school taxes. Heretofore, the schools have been reimbursed by the County Treas¬ urer. Now when the County Treasurer makes demand upon the Supervisor for the amount, Counsel gives it as his o{)inioii that it is not the province of the .Supervi-sor to pay the amount. The opinion is of such imiiortance that , we publish it in full and advise school I authorities to give it the careful con¬ sideration it deserves. July 23, iyo9. Hon. Smith Cox, Supervisor of Town of Hempstead, Town Hall, Hempstead, N. Y. Dear sir: I write in reference to the letter ad¬ dressed to you, as Supervisor of the Town of Hempstead, by Charles F. Lewis, Treasurer of Nassau t'ounty, bearing date June 8th, UtO'j, enclosing a report of the amount of School Ta.xes for the year 1907 remaining un¬ collected and showing the amount of unpaid School Taxes of the I'own of HeniDstead to be $ll,123.;n. I understand that the County Treas¬ urer has demanded this amount from you, as Supervisqr of the Town of Hempstead. I find no authority in law for you to make this payment; on the contrary, in my opinion, it is your plain duly not to make the payment. Sections 406, 4'i7 and 4u,s of the Edu¬ cation Law, being Chapter 16 of the Consolidated Laws adopted at the last (1000) session of the Uvigislature (for¬ merly known as Sections 73, 74, and 75, Title 7 of the Consolidated School Law) provides as follows: Sec. 406. -Certification by Trustees of Collector's return. —Upon receiving any such account from the collector, the trustees shall compare it with the original tax list, and if they find it lo be a true transcript they shall add to such account their certificate to the effect that they have compared'it^with the original tax list and found it to be correct, and shall immediately trans¬ mit the account, afiidav-' and certificate to the treasurer of lb . county. Sec. 407.—Payment of Unpaid Taxes from County Treasury. Out of any moneys in tho country treasury, raised for contingent expenses, or for the pur¬ pose of paying the amount of the taxes so returned as unpaid, with one per centum of the amount in atldition thereto for the compensation of such collector, and if there are no moneys in the treasury applicable toisuch pur¬ pose, the Board of Supervisors, at the time of levying said unpaid taxes as provided in the next section, shall pay to the Collector of the school district, the amount thereof, with said addition thereto, by voucher or draft on the county treasurer, in the same manner as other county charges are paid, and the collector shall be again charged therewith by the trustees. Sec. 408.—Levy by Supervisors of Unpaid Taxes,—Such account, aflnda- vit and certificate shall be laid by the I county treasurer before the board of ; supervisors of the county, who shall cause the amount of such unpaid taxes with seven per centum of the amount in addition thereto, to be levied upon the lands upon which the same were imposed; and if imposed upon the lands of any incorporated company then upon such company, and when collected the same shall be returned to the county treasurer to reimburse the amount so advanced, with the expenses of collec¬ tion." From the foregoing provisions it is apparent that the amount of unpaid School Taxes are to be paid by the County Treasurer to the collector of the School District and then these , ta.xes, with seven per cent, added there¬ to, are extended and included in the next town tax roll and levied upon the lands upon which the same were ori¬ ginally rmpo.sed as provided in Sec. 408 above quoted. This, as I under¬ stand it. was done in the case of the unpaid School Taxes for the year 1907. It follpws, then, that when the Re¬ ceiver of Ta.xes for the Town of Hemp¬ stead collected the taxes under his \ warrant annexed to the Tax Roll fur I the year 1908, on which appeared the various levies of unpaid school taxes for the year 1907, as provided in Sec. , 408 of the Education Law above quoted, ' he turned this amount over to the I County Treasurer and the County Treas- surer was thereby reimbursed for the amount of nioneys which he had sqrpaid . out to the collectors of the School Dis- }tricts. ! If the Receiver of Taxes did not I make the collection, the County Treas- ] lu-er is authorized to sell the land anJ I thus collect the amount be has paid out, and thereby reimburse himself for the same. This procedure is the only procedure authorized by law whereby the County Treasurer may be reimbursed for the amount School Taxes that he has paid out. You will notice that Section 4o7 of the Education Law quoted above states: "Out of any money in the County treasury, raiaed for contingent ex¬ penses, or for the purpose of paying the amount of the taxes so returned unpaid, the treasurer shall pay to the collector," etc. 'I'his means that the Board of Super¬ visors aro authorized to provide the County Treasurer with either (1) a contingent fund or (2) a fund for the purpose of paying tlie amount of School Taxes returned unpaid to the County Treasurer. If either or both of these funds are maintained, either is amply sufticiont to keep the County Treasurer in funds, and moreover, the anujunt which the County Treasurer from time to time receives, either on the sale of the proji¬ erty for the unpaid .School Taxes, pr by voluntary [layments of the same, are then credited to either of these funds, and mere cannot be any possi¬ bility of the same taxes being paid twice. In any event the moneys out of which the County Treasurer can pay unpaid School Taxes are County moneys raised for County purposes. In the case of People ex rel, William D. Burbank and others. Trustees of School District No. 1, of the town of Middietown, Richmond County, against James R. Robin.son, as County Treas¬ urer of Richmond County, reported in 76 N. Y. 422, the Court of Apiieals passed upon the duly inijiosed upuii the County'Ireasurer by Sec. 77, Chapter 555 of the laws of 1864, which is prac¬ tically the same as Sec. 407 of the Ed¬ ucation Law quoted above, and said: "The duty imposed by this section ujjon the treasurer is (lualilied and con¬ ditional. His authority and duty lim¬ ited. His authority is to pay the claims mentioned out of a particular fund, viz: moneys in the treasury raised fen- contingent expenses, and if no such fund has been raised, or if it has been exhausted, there is no author¬ ity and conseiiuently no duty to pay them." In the case above (juoted, the defen¬ dant, the County Treasurer, detjlined payment, "On the ground that there was no' fund in his hands a.s treasurer rai.sed for the payment of contingent expenses of the County." Antl this, as the Gourt Wmh, was true. The (Jourt decided that under these circumstances, the relators were not entitled to a mandamus against the County Treasurer. Returning to the (juestion under dis¬ cussion, the only demand that the County Treasurer can make is that the Supervisors ot the County shall by rais¬ ing money for County purposes, keep him in funds sufficient for the purposes above named. Section 59 of the Tax Law, being Chapter 60 of the Consolidated Lawa adopted at the last (1909) Session of the Legislature, (formerly known as Sec. 56 of the Tax Law) provides that the Receiver of Taxes shall pay out the money collected by him as follows: 1. To the Commissioners of high¬ ways of the town, such sum as shall have been raised for the support of highways and bridges therein. 2. To the Overseers of the Poor (jf the town, such sum as shall have been levied, to be expended by such Over¬ seers for the supjjort of the poor there¬ in. 3. To the Supervisor of the town, all the moneys levied therein, to defray any other town expenses or charges. 4i To the trea.surer of the County, the residue of the money so to be col¬ lected. Section 170 of tho Town Law enu¬ merates what are to be deemed town charges, and it cannot in aay way be said that the re-imbursing of the County Treasurer for money expended by him to pay uncollected School Taxes is in any way a town charge or expense and from this it follows and I so advise you that you are not only not authorized to make the payment, but on the contrary, should refrain from an doing. If you should pay this money to the County Treasurer, it never comes back into the Treasury of the Town, and therefore, by your making this payment knd then by the County Treasurer sub¬ sequently collecting the same amount, either (1) from the Receiver of Taxes or (2) by a sale of the real property, the same tax is paid twice, namely, once by the town at large, and second by the individual taxpayer against whose property the tax was originally ' imposed. If, however, the County Treasurer pays the money out of the funds in his hands as County Treasurer, and then reimburses himself either (1) by collection from the Fieceiver of Taxes, or (2) by the tax .<ale, the money again comes into the hands of the County and can and should be credited to the fund from which the payments were origin¬ ally made, and thus the tax is paid but once, which is all the law ever contem¬ plated should be done. 1 return herewith the letter of the i^ounty Treasurer bearing date June 8, 1909, and the report enclosed there¬ with.
