FARMERS AND INCOME TAX

One ". H. Smith discusses the in
come tax in a rather practical sort of
way in a communication to the Bara-
boo Daily News. In Wisconsin, he says,
there are III, 127 farms; Isl, 022 are oc-
cupied by owners, 24,654 by tenants,
and ], Ash by managers. If 9 report is
made from each of all these farms, al
lowing 81 each for time spentin going
to notary to swear to the statement,
which every person must, it would cost
1854, 254. AS he remarks, this amount
is lost; not even the Office holders get
pull at it. The notary fees at 25c
each would amolnt to s44, 28l.75, and
stamps to send reports to the collector
would cost SO. 542. "a. "'These amounts
do not include any taxes-just getting
ready"
Mr.. Smith ads: ''The income tax
would not make up for one-half of the
loss on personal property assessed.
Every farmer can add at least ten per
cent to his last year s real estate assess
ment when he gets his tax return this
year, and he can continue to add ten
per cent. each year as long as these
laws stand. 1t is an easy matter to
raise the tax on real estate but a hard
job to get it lowered. The tax roll will
not come out till after election. If ev-
cry farmer in the state would have
made out his income report and paid
his taxes before election, the present
administration would not carry one out
of the II counties in the state. Now,
farmers, what are you going to do
about this? Are you going to continue
following the wild, believing crowd
farther and farther in hills and woods,
as you have in the past two years and
allow them to rob you on every corner?"
