INCOME TAX DUE ON
OR BEFORE MARCH Is
Returns Must Be Filed On or Before
That Date-Bill Provides
Heavy Penalties.

Washington, D. c. Feb. 25.-Work
on the collection of $6,0O0,O00,0O0 has
been begun by the Bureau of Internal
Revenue. This is the estimated yield
of the new revenue bill. The income
tax provisions of the act reach the
pocketbook of every single person in
the United States whose net income
for 1918 was $1,000, or more, and of
every married person whose net in
come was $1,000 or more. Persons
whose net income equalled or exceed
ed these amount according to their
martial status, must file return of
income with the collector of internal
revenue for the district in which they
live on or before March IS.
Here is what will happen to them if
they don't; for failure to file a return
on time, fine of not more than 81 DOC
and additional assessment of Is per
cent of the amount of tax due.
For "willfully refusing to make a
return on time, fine not exceeding
$4,000 or not exceeding one year:
Imprisonment. or both
For making a false or fraudulent re-
turn, a fine of not more than $l00OO

Weekly Health Talks
q WORD ABOUT THE KIDNEYS
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and we'll they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers of diseased kidneys. These
organs have duty of vital importance
to perform, and if they are diseased,
there is no telling how or where the
symptoms may appear. The kidneys
are filters, and when they are healthy
they remove the poisons from the blood
and purify it. When the kidneys are
diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form of urate
salts-in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back - often forming bags under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's
disease.
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that certain COM
bination of remedies would dissolve uric
acid (urate salts) in the system. He
found this combination to be harmless,
SO that he made it up in tablets,
of double strength, and called them
Anuric Tablets. They dissolve uric
acid in the human system as hot coffee
dissolves sugar. If you have uric acid
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce,
too, and he will tell you what to eat
and how to live so that more uric acid
will not form in your system. DR.. Pierce
will not charge for this advice.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Great inter
est in official circles as we'll as among
the farmers of the country. is shown
in the charge made by DR.. w. ]
Spillman, former chief of the office
of Farm Management, Department Of
Agriculture, that Secretary Houston
delayed Investigations of cost of pro-
duction of farm crops and even went
so far as to declare that farmers
should not have information regarding
costs of production.
The controversy between DIR. Spill
man and Secretary Houston. over the
formers investigation of food pro-
duction and distribution to determine
costs at various stages and to ascer-
tain whether unfair practices prevailed
| in the trades based en- food products
is set forth in detail in speech which
| DR.. Spillman recently made before the
Annual Conference of the National
Board of Farm Organizations, in
Washington, D. C.
| DIR. Spillman points out that by the
summer of 1917, after ten years of
study the office of Farm Management
felt that it had worked out satisfactory
methods for determining the cost of
producing practically all kinds of farm
products. What seemed to be most
needed to enable the experts to arrive
at current costs was knowledge OF
current wages and prices of materials.
"It happened that lust at this time,
said the former chief, "the President
directed the Federal Trade Commits
sion to undertake certain studies OF
food production and distribution with
a view to determining costs at various
stages and Of ascertaining whether I'M
fair practices prevailed in the trades
based on food products" DR.. Spill
Imam then stated that arrangements
were made for the office OF Farm
Management to have charge of this
work, and that he requested letters OF
authorization for the purpose OF send
ing Il experts to the field to collect
tho necessary data, This was in DC
l,oher, 1917. Secretary Houston re,
fused to grant these letters, according
to DR.. Spillman, and called the Doctor
to his office for consultation. In re
ferring to this conference, Secretar,
Houston stated in letter to the sen
Iatc in November, 1918: 81 indicated
to him (Spiilmanl my desire that care

every word of that statement is

man. Secretary Houston made n
such suggestion to me at that or an
other time" After stating that tn
secretary had made what he called
thorough investigation of the subjee
of cost of production, by interrogai
ing a cousin Of his on a farm in Mort

Congressional Record
1t was an unwritten rule in the days
gone by that Congressman who insist
ed upon the exercise of their preroga-
tive for much speaking" must do so
only during the long session, leaving
to the short session a fair opportunity
for the transaction of business. How
far this rule has been disrcgarded in
these days is evident from the failure
OF the present congress to depart from
its useless talking, even at the very
close of its most important session.
For most congressman the big ques-
tion centers about their own welfare

chances" at the next election. This

intervals for the usual and expected

there were no losses, but there are no
allowances for possible losses. It is
not easy to keep gains above losses in
the business world without anv taxa-
tion, but who would dare to move
OUTSIDE OF the most cautious policies
with such odds as present taxation
puts against him? Ordinary business
IN established routine may go on, but
the courage which undertakes new en-
terprises has very heavy odds agains st
it,
lhe time has come when it is not
to be considered unpatriotic for bust
ness men to inquire as to the method
or expend1ng the vast sums of money
winch the treasury department has
been gathering in during the past two
years. 1t is the general impre ssion
that the appropriation bills OF recent
years have been filled with needless
and extravagant expenditures and that
government war money has been laid
out with a lavishness that is little
short of criminal. Politicians and
favored contractors have grown rich
with the spoils of the war period and
scores of new millionaires have been
created. If it is the duty Of the peo-
pie to provide, directly or indirectly
funds for the National Treasury, it is
their privilege to demand that these
funds be expended wisely and iudici
ously.
