A Lemon for the Farmers.
Manchester Union.

The decision of the commissioner OF
;nternaI revenue, that the income from
farm products and crop-share rentals
must hereafter be included in tax returns
of income for the year in which they are
sold for money or a money equivalent Is
another lemon from the present Demo-
cratic administration to the American
farmer. Not only is the farmer denied
the promised rural credits legislation, put
he must pay a tax on his farm products
and on all crop-share rentals
"A person cultivating or operating
farm for recreation or pleasure on las S
other than the recognized principles OF
commercial farming, the result which Is
a continual loss from year to year, Is not
regarded as a farmer" according TO the
decision, and in such cases, if the ex-
pense incurred in connection with the
farm are in excess of the receipts there
from. the entire receipts from sale OF
products may be ignored in rendering a
return of income" In other words, one
who Is financially SO situated as to be
able to run a farm for the fun OF the
thing. even at financial loss, is relieved
of the necessity for paying the tax;
whereas the genuine, bona fide farmer,
who depends for his living on the farm
he cultivates, and who gets little enough
out of that, is required to pay tax On
the income from. what he produces.
Dear. dear! How this Wilson administra-
ton does love the farmer!

This scout tells an intensely in

sent to his death. A hundred or more
renegade white men were with the
Sioux when they attacked the yellow

says, and none OF these had any love
for Custer. According to White
Clouds tale some of the white men

Of his head, and he stands erect as u
