The largest item of expenditure for the municipalities, as it
appears from the table, is education, to which 22.27 % was devoted
in 1892, in the towns, and in the rural districts as much as
30.71 %, and for the whole country 26.20 % of the total
expenditure. While the expenditure on education in the rural districts
is almost exclusively for the benefit of the primary schools, in the
towns about one fourth of the expenditure is for the benefit of
other schools. The two other largest items of expenditure, the
relief of the poor and the means of transit together with the
public works, represent at the same time in the towns 16.65 %
and 19.88 %, in the rural districts 29.87 % and 13.63 %, and for
the whole country 22.80 % and 16.97 % respectively of the total
expenditure of the municipalities.

In 1884, the receipts of the municipalities were kr. 23,103,491, of
which kr. 11,847,191 was for the towns, and for the rural districts
kr. 11,256,300. In 1892 they had increased to kr. 28,046,365,
which were distributed in the following manner:

	Towns	Rural districts	Whole country
