Washington, March 10.-Instruc-
lions to farmers for making out in

reau of Internal Revenue, explain
what outlays may be regarded as ex
penses and deducted from gross in

The cost of ordinary tools Of short
life or small cost, it is explained, such
as shovels, hoes and rakes, L,ay be
included. The cost of feeding and Of
raising live stock may be treated as
an expense deduction, insofar as the
cost represents actual outlay, but not
including the value of feed grown up
on the farm, or the labor of the tax.
payer. Where a farmer is engaged IN
producing crops which take more
than a year from the time of planting
to the process of gathering and dis
posal, expenses deducted may be de-
termined upon the crop basis, and
such deductions must be taken in the
year in which the gross income from
the crop has been realized.
The cost of farm machinery and OF
farm buildings represents capital
investment and is not an allowable
deduction as an item of expense
Amounts spent in the development Of
i farms, orchards and ranches before
the time when the productive state
also is reached, and amounts spent
in purchasing draft or work animals
or live stock either for resale or fol-
breeding purposes also are regarded
as capital investments, not deductble
The purchase price of an automo
bile, even when used entirely in car.
rying on farm operations, similarly
is not deductible. The cost of gaso.
line, repairs and upkeep of an auto
mobile, however, if used entirely or
farm business, is deductible as en- ex
pense. If used partly for bushes,
and partly for pleasure or convent
ence, the taxpayer should determin,
to what extent il is used for each. an,
deduct only that part charged to bust
ness purposes.

Jacksonville, Fla, March S.-(Spe'
ciaD-Collector Of Internal Revenue
James M. Cathcart, when seen at his
Office last night stated:
"That it was apparent from the
number Of returns being received at
this Office, both by mail and from the
individual taxpayers at this Office,
both by mail and from the individual
taxpayers in person, that many OF the
citizens Of the district of Florida
were delaying making their income
tax returns.
ut will be necessary" said Col
lector Cathcart. Ito receive an aver
age Of one thousand returns per day
from now until March 18th in order
that the estimated number Of persons
liable for income tax should prepare
and forward their returns on or be-
fore March 18th as the law re-
quires.'
It will be seen from this statement
that this condition is likely to cause
| such congestion in the last few days
Of the tax period that many persons
will not be able to secure the neces-
sarv information and assistance In
| preparing their return.
The law provides very heavy penal
ties for failure to file the return re-
quired by law and pay the install
ment of the tax due on or before
March 18th. This penalty will auto
matically attach by operation of law
on all returns not received within
the required time, the Collector hav-
ing no discretion in this matter.
All the forms for individual tax
payers have been distributed and arf
available either at the Collectors Of
flee in Jacksonville, or at the fielt
headquarters in the District Of Flor
!, ida as follows: Tampa, st. Peters
burg, Miami Pensacola, Gainesville

There has also been mailed to ev

due and renting with this Tentative
return the payment Of at least q
per cent Of the tax. thus securing al

APPLES IN FLORIDA

A correspondent asks the state
marketing bureau about the Ben

was originated by Ben Davis, a vir.

twenty slaves. The Ben Davis is a

SEEK RUNAWAYS FROM oCoEE
Sheriff White Asked to Look Out for
Arthur Clark and Chum

Sheriff A. J. White received a let
ter from Arthur Clarke, Ocoee, Fla,
this morning, asking that he keep on
the lookout for his 15-year-old son,
who together with a 14-year old
friend, ran away from Ocoee last
week. According to the elder
Clarke, the two boys left with one
quilt and skillet, evidently prepared
to camp out if necessary.
The father knows of no reason why
the boys left home, other than de-
sire to travel, and from the tone of
his letter he would make very little
effort to locate the boy, but for the
trouble it is causing the youngster 4
mother. The Clarke boy weighs
about 115 pounds, has light hair, blue
eyes and wore cap. His chum is
also much of blonde and wore g
blue suit. Sheriff White was advised
that the boys are likely to be found
around some garage, as his turr
seemed mechanical.
Information relative to the absenc,
of other boys is falling in the hands
of Mrs. Bass and other officers AM

peal to business houses and homes t

dry apple, and on that account is
one of the best keepers.
The common apple, technicaiiy
know as pyrus malus, has been ana
is now the most important fruit OF
the temperate zone. 1t is grown IN
all parts of the world, but Nortn
America leads with a production OF
5O,OOOOOO barrels. There are now
over 1900 varieties. The apple Isl
used extensively in cooking and for
eating out Of the hand. 1t is also
used for making cider, vinegar, BRAN
DIV and other beverages, and vast
quantities are dried.
E. P. Powell, a former well-known
New York pomologist, an authority
on fruits, lived for some years In Or
ange county, Florida, and backed up
his belief that apples could be grown
in this state, and he had them up his
belief that apples could be, for his
own use, but his complete expert
ments unfortunately ended with his
death. It is only question Of right
effort and work and adaptation of the
right variety, he said, with peaches
plums and other fruits.
1t is known that each section OF
the world possesses certain num-
Der of varieties of apples which are
peculiarly adapted to its soil and Gil
mate. Iowa went to Russia for It's
varieties. Florida is growing fruit
from Japan. 1t Is not possible TO
grow anything in these days without
work and organized fight against
plant diseases and insect pests, but
the right man in the right place is
equal to the emergency, and sue
ceeds. The literature relating to the
apple is large.
There was a time when it was be
lieved that apples would not grow II
Iowa and Minnesota, and now these
states are great producers. 1t was
only a matter of persistently keeping
at it.
Apples from Washington and Ore
, gon, 5000 miles away, sell in the mar
kets of Florida communities at from
, S to 10 cents each. Would it not pa.
, to follow the example of Mr. Powell
and try out apples in Florida?

new PETITION FOR A
GRAND JURY TO COME

New petition for a grand jury will
soon be circulated in Sheridan coun-
ty, praying Judge Conner to call a
grand jury together for the purpose
of investigating the shameless graft
conditions having taken place in this
county during the past several years.
which have been constantly exposed
in the columns of the Producers
News, and which it seems impossible
to get any action started on.
It is thought that if a grand jury
should be called and an earnest in
vestigation forced, things could be
disclosed that would stink to high
heaven.
Judge Hurley had been petitioneo
for grand jury and he had promlseo
to call one, but the division of the
judicial district took the whole mat.
ter out of his hands. The investi.
eating body would have been callee
early in the spring, by Judge Hurley
but the change in the jury drawing
law. providing for the black capsule
made it impossible to call the Jur!
during his term of office.
A great many of the Taxpayers
were in hopes that the new judge
Hon. C. E. Conner, would take cog
nizance of the fact that a petition

shall hook his hooks again into the
county Golfers for a last hook.
The county is practically Ebank-
rupt; there viii be practically no
crop this year; appeals have been
made to congress to come to the res
cue of the people of Montana and of
Sheridan county; taxes are high and
probably over a half of them will not
be collected this fall; the future out
look is the most dismal that the world
has ever faced; the cost of living is
mounting every day; yet Messrs.
Timmons and Matkins will insist on
trying to pay our county money to
this man Of Loyalty League fame,
Joe Hooking of Glasgow, for steel
counter sections, that are no more
needed at the court house than is
needed a war balloon.
Wednesday afternoon, the above
gentlemen decided, at the behest OF
Mr.. Hooking, to reconsider their pre-
vious actions in disapproving Mr.
Hocking's claim, and yesterday put
on the big rubber approval STAMP
and Mr.. Timmons signed the same.
Of course the clerk cannot draw
warrant in payment of claim un.
less the county auditor approves oi
the claim or until the said claim has
been approved and order paid. by
the Judge, so it will probably be
some time before Mr.. Hooking hooks
the little wad.
Mr.. Hooking has employed the Law
firm of Babcock & Ellery to make tht
collection and it is rumored that sui
will soon be commenced.
The counter section graft has go
to be some issue in Sheridan county
Of course almost anything can b.
expected from the senile members O.
the County Board-for these gentle
men can be expected to do mos
anything at any time that is childisl
and foolish, and the people of tn
county can not find another such :
duet if the county was searched witt
drag net.
