This TELLS HOW TO
FIGURE INCOME TAX
Squarely Up to Every Individual
to Get Busy by March 10
or Suffer Penalty.

"Don't wait until the final due date,
March 18th, for paying your Income
Tax and making your return. Avoid
the last minute rush. Any person can
figure out his liability today as well as
he can next week, and if there is any
point on which he needs advice he can
now get in touch with Revenue man."
This word of advice is being given
out by Internal Revenue men. Re
turns and payments are being col
lected in Kentucky by the following
Collectors of Internal Revenue:
Josh T. Griffith.
]. Rogers Gore.
Charlton B. Thompson.
Elwood Hamilton.
John w. Hughes.
Every aid of their offices and field
forces is being given freely to the
public.
But the Income Tax men will not
pull your door-bell or your coat-tails,
according to the Collectors announce
ment. 1t is squarely up to every 'indi-
vidual to figure out his own case and
to get busy If he comes within the
scope Of the new Revenue law.

the nearest of the following: Josh T.
Griffith, OwensbOro; ]. Rogers Gore,
Louisville; Charlton B. Thompson,
Covington :; ElwOod Hamilton, Lexing-
ton; John w. Hughes, Danville.
Payments sent by mail should be at
tacheC to the returns and should be in
the form of check, money order or
draft. Cash payments by mail are sent
at the taxpayers risk of loss.
If you are unable to make your re-
turn personally because of illness, alb
sence or incapacity an agent or legal
representative may make your return.
If there are any doubtful points as
to your items of income or allowable
deductions you should get in touch at
er for advice.
Women Pay Tax.
Women are subject to all the require
ments of the Income Tax Whether
single or married, a woman's income
from all sources must be considered.
If unmarried or If living apart from
her husband she must make her return
for 1918 if her net income was $1,000
or over.
If married and living with her hus-
band her income must be considered
with the husbands in determining the
liability for a return. Their joint in
come, less the credits allowed by law,
is subject to normal tax The wife's
net income is considered separately in
computing any surtax that may be due
Husband and wife file Jointly, as a
rule. If the husband does not include
his wife's income in his return the
wife must file separate return.
Severe Penalties.
The new Revenue Law places severe
penalties on a person who fails to
make return on time, refuses to make
return or renders a fraudulent return.
For failure to make return and pay tax
on time fine of not more than $1,000
is named and % per cent of the tax
due is added to the assessment For

for making a false or fraudulent re-
turn there is fine of not exceeding
$4,000 and Imprisonment of not ex-
ceeding one year, or both

SEVERE PENALTIES IF YOU
DELAY BEYOND MARCH IS

With the due date for Income Taxes
only a few weeks away, the collection
of this far-reaching tax on 1918 in
comes has started off with a bang.
Everybody is figuring income tax.
Payments and sworn statements of
income must reach Internal Revenue
Offices on or before March 10, and there
are severe penalties for delinquency.
Residents of Kentucky should make
their returns and pay their taxes to
the nearest of the following: Josh L.
sGrifith, Owensboro; ]. Rogers Gore,
Louisville; Charlton B. Thompson,
rCOvington; Elwood Hamilton, Lexing-
ton; John W. Hughes, Danville.
Pay your Income Tax by March
15,'' is the slogan of the Internal Rev
,enue Bureau, which has sent every
available officer into the field to help
the public to understand the require
sments and to prepare the returns.
Who Must Make Return.
1t is estimated that many thousands
of single and married persons in this
section Of the United States who have
never before made annual returns are
required to do so this year.

income tax returns must be made
between now and March 10 by persons
who come under the following classifi-
cations:
Any unmarried person whose 1918
net income was $1,000 or over Wild
Ows and widowers, Divorces and mar
ried persons who are living apart from
their husbands or wives, are for the
purposes of the Income Tax classed as
unmarried.
Any married person living with wife
or husband whose 1918 net income was
1000 or over. The income of both
husband and wife must be considered,
together with the earnings of minor
children, if any.
Revenue Bureau Offers Aid.
Each person in the United States
who is in either of these classifications
must get busy at once if penalties are
to be avoided. He should secure a
blank Form 1910 A for reporting net
income up to $1,000, or Form 1910 if
his net income exceeded that amount.
Forms are being distributed by Collec-
tors and their Deputies, also by banks.
BY following the instructions on the
forms a correct return can be prepared
at home. If person needs advice or
aid, the Deputy Collectors in the field
will furnish this without charge.
The new Revenue law places the In
come Tax duty on citizens and resi-
dents. The Internal Revenue Bureau
is sending its men to work right with
the public to get the tax and the re-
turns in. With active cooperation
every tax due March 10 will be paid
and every return required by law will
be in the Revenue offices on time.
Exemptions Are Allowed.
A single person is allowed a personal
exemption of $1,000. If he is support
ing in his household relatives who are
dependent upon him he may claim the
status of the head of family who has
the same exemption as if married.
A married person who lives with
wife or husband is allowed a personal
exemption of $1,000. The head of a
family is entitled to claim a similar
personal exemption.
An additional exemption of 5000 is
allowed for each person under eight
cen or incapable of self support who
was dependent upon and received his
chief support from the taxpayer.
A husband and wife living together
are entitled to but one personal ex-
emption of $1,000. If they make sep
arate returns the exemption may be
claimed by either or divided.
Accuracy Required.
Absolute accuracy is necessary In
making up income figures. Any per-
SON who is working for wages should

T1Id out exactly how much he received
during the whole year 1918. Fees,
bank interest, bond interest, dividends,
rents received and all other items
must be reported correctly. Mere
guesses are not accepted, for they are
unjust alike to the taxpayer and the
Government and defeat the proper ad-
miniStratiOn of the law.

INCOME TAX PAYS
FOR PUBLIC BENEFITS.

taxes is payment for benefits

DOGS HELPED DEFEAT HUNS
Splendid Work Of Alaskan and Labra-
dor Animals in the Alps and
Vosges Mountains.

Alaska and Labrador served the
cause OF the allies in one especially
interesting way by contributing the
motive power for the sleds that kept
the troops who were in mountain
trenches supplied during the dead of
winter In four days after a heavy
snowfall, writes a contributor to the
National Geographic Magazine. one
kennel of 100 dogs moved more than
fifty tons of food and other supplies
from a valley to the front line on the
mountain above. In the Vosges noun
tains more than a thousand Alaskan
sled dogs helped to hold back the Ger
mans during the last year Of the war.
One woman brought back to Ameri-
ca Croix de Guerre awarded by
France to her dog teams. The deed
that won them that honor was their
saving of a storm-bound. depressed
outpost in the French Alps. Dispatch
bearers had been sent back with re-
quests for ammunition, but they failed
to get through the binding blizzard.
At last the situation became desper-
ate; only quick action could save the
post. Lieut.. Rene Haas hltched his
dogs to light sled and managed to
make the long and perilous trip down
to the army base.
There he hitched the % dogs to IA
light sleds that the soldiers loaded
with ammunition. Back over the for
bidding trail they went, under artil-
lery FIRE, and facing a bitter wind. On
the fifth day at sunrise the painting
dogs reached the outpost. Their bur
den of ammunition was Immediately
rushed to the gunners and the noun
tain was saved.

from Its use as fuel, peat may be spun
into yarn, made into paper, used for
packing, etc. 1t is valuable as a pre-
sentative, as 1t contains large amounts
of humic acid. Ground up peat may
also be used as a filler for fertilizer,
