For making actual demand on delinquent taxpayers, the collector shall be entitled to receive a fee of $5 from each taxpayer on whom such demand is made, which shall be charged against such taxpayer and collected for the use of the collector in the same manner and by the same means as taxes are collected, but he shall charge only one fee against each taxpayer. For making a levy on and sale of personal property for the collection of taxes, the collector shall be allowed a fee of $5 to be collected out of the property, and, in addition thereto, he shall be authorized to collect out of such property the actual expenses of keeping and moving the same to the place of sale. The collector may sell any personal property levied on at any place in the precinct that he may determine or may move the same to the courthouse of the county for sale. For the levy on and sale of a tract, parcel, or lot of land assessed to one owner, or to "owner unknown," the collector shall receive a fee of $5 in addition to the demand fee on such delinquent taxpayer, the said fee to be made a part of the judgment of sale and collected with the taxes due on the land sold or levied on for sale.
