EDiFIcE COST S21 900; FREE
OF DEBT.

filed both morning and evening. The

steam and is strictly modern in con-
struction and arrangement.

FARMERSPAY
THEIR TAXES
MURPHY ARRANGEs
STATE WIDE CAMPAIGN
ON INCOMES.

Dubuque, May ga statewide cam
paign for the collection Of income taxes
from Iowa farmers has been organized
by Revenue Collector Murphy.
1t is assumed that the law has not
been understood by all farmers-many
in cities also do not understand it-and
have been negiecting to make returns.
A special blank has been prepared
and Is being sent to all farmers who
own $40 acres or more, calling for de-
tailed information. When the report Is
made the farmer will be personally in
terviewed by a deputy collector to clear
up any misunderstood points. For In
stance. living expenses cannot be taken
out Of income.
Preliminary organization has been
perfected by Collector Murphy in about
half the counties. 1t is said that facts
developed indicate that there may be
about 10000 delinquent income taxpay-
ers among the farmers. That may en-
rich the Golfers of Uncle Sam anywhere
from $780, to 100000 it is estimated.
