Any officer required to pay into the county treasury taxes, fees, or other money collected by him may pay the money to the treasurer daily without making an account of the sources from which it was collected. The treasurer and auditor shall credit the officer with the amount paid in without apportioning it to any specific fund. The officer shall also make regular settlements and accounts of his collections monthly or otherwise as required by law and shall be credited with all amounts paid to the treasurer and not included in his previous settlements as so much cash.
