Land Taxes and Mineral Right Duties. By Thomas Moffet. (John

Murray. 5s. net.)—This volume contains an analysis of the Land Taxes, zkc., part of the Finance Act of 1910 "from a Sur- veyor and Valuer's standpoint." It is explanatory, not contro- versial, and it is needless to say anything about it here. One remark, however, may be made. That the working of the Act will provide abundant employment for the surveyor and valuer is manifest on the face of it. A little reflection makes it seem probable that the lawyer will have his share.
