forbidden to date any such license other than the first day of May in
each and every year, except when the trader engages in business in
any other month subsequent to May first, when such license shall be
issued from such month and a ratable sum on a quarterly basis shall
be charged therefor. [In determining the value of the merchandise,
fixtures and stock in trade for the purpose of issuing all traders'
