The following IS iIv very important 4sd to farmers, g.
and the decisions have recently been given. by
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue at
Washington:d sc; ;sta5 i..g..sf
/ Farmers will not be required to make re-
turn of produce consumed in their own im,ne
diatc families , -5v elT,s,
?. The farmers profits for sale Of live stock
are to be found by deductng from the gross re-.
ceipts for animals sold the purchase money
paid for same IF animals have been lost dur
ing the year by death or robbery, the purchase
money paid for such animals may be deducted
from the gross income Of the farm.
3. M deductions can Be made by the farmer
for the value OF services rendered by his minor
children, whether ho actually pays for such SER
vices or not. IF his adult children work for
him and receive compensation for thcir labor;
they arc to be regarded as other hired laborcrs
i'll determining his income.
4. Money paid for labor, except such as is
used or employed in domestic service, Or in the
production Of articles consumed in the family
Of the producer, may be deducted.
S. No deduction can be allowed in any case
for the cost of .unproductive labor If house
servants are 6cmploycdra portion of the time in
productive labor such as making of butter and
cheese for sale, a proporionatc amount Of tho
wages paid them may be deducted.

provcmcnts arc not deducted
Z. The whole amount expended for fertilizers
| applied during the ycarto farmers land may DO

s.. If person sells timber standing the pro-.
Tits are to be obtained by estimating the value

purchased since that date t
! 9. Where no repairs have been made by the
tax payer upon any building owned by him
during the proceeding five years, nothing can
be deducted for repairs during the year for
which his income is estimated.
| 10. y farmer should make return Of all his
produce sold within the year, but mere exccu-
tory contract for sale is not sale; delivery,
| either actual or constructive, is essential. The
crtcrian by which to judge whether sale is
complete or not, is to determine whether the
vendor still retains in that character right
over the property; if the property were lost or
destroyed upon which Of the parties, in the alb
scnc" of any ether relation between them than
that OF the vendor and vcndcc, would the loss
fall.
