crete feeding floors, etc, as to buildings.
One should compute the rods Of each
kind OF fence, the cost per rod, and base
depreciation on estimated years Of life.
In addition, one may charge for cash
outlay for ordinary minor repairs.
Real Estate Sales.
The profit on real estate since March
!, 1913, is income. If one sold farm
that he owned previous to March 1,
1913, the profit would be based upon the
market value Of the farm as Of March
!, 1913, as determined by local sales
at that time. In the case of a farm
sold during 1919 for $4,000 that had
cost $4,000 in 1914, and upon which
one had charged depreciation on build
ings and fences at $500 per year, the
profit would be $4,000. The cost of
all improvements, such as new build
ings, fences and thing should be added
to the purchase price
Payments on Deed Contracts.
Payments on contract for a deed
are regarded as installment payments
and the per cent OF each payment, that
is profit, is reported as income for the
year in which it is received; but mort
cages are regarded the same as cash.
For example, consider the foregoing case
of a farm that sold for $4,000 and,
during 1919, $4,000 had been paid on
contract for deed with a provision for
payment Of $4,000 in cash and mort
cages on March /, 1920 The profit

Auto Depreciation and Upkeep. &
Automobile depreciation and upkeep
IS deductible when the automobile is
used for business and pleasure. Most
farm automobiles are used both for
business and pleasure, and in that case
the proportionate part Of the expense
that is for business purposes may be
included with the farm machinery ex-
pense.
Charge on Buildings.
One is entitled to include, as an ex-
pense, depreciation, plus cash outlay,
for minor repairs on all farm buildings,
except the dwelling house. No repairs,
depreciation or insurance on ones dwell
ling house can be included as business
expense. The depreciation on build
ings follows the same rule as does ma
chinery that depreciation is based on
the first cost and estimated years of life.
In the case Of farm buildings owned on
March |, 1918, the depreciation would
be upon the basis of the value as of that
date. In the case Of buildings purchased
with a farm since 1913, the estimat-
ed value Of the buildings at the time
of purchase and expected years of use
fulness would be the basis Of depre-
citation charges.
Figuring, Fencing Etc.
The same rule APPLIES to fences. con-

but on purchased animals one may de-
duct the purchase price less depreciation
already charged. For example, if a
horse died that had cost 5000 three years
previously and one had charged $50
depreciation per year, one could deduct
$40 as loss, except that one could
not claim as deduction any portion
of the loss that was covered by insurance.
Charges on Machinery.
One cannot enter any machinery
purchased as current expense, but can
enter the estimated depreciation plus
the cash outlay for minor repairs. In
every case the basis for charging depre-
citation is the actual purchase price and
the estimated years of life, without
regard to fluctuations in the market
price of machinery. For example, a
binder purchased for $3.50 four years
previously, and estimated to last 10
years, would have a depreciation charge
of SIS per year, whether the present
price of new binders is $3.50 or SIS.
Ifone estimates it upon 10 per cent
basis, no charge can be made for de-
probation on machinery over 10 years
old, as, according to the farmers own
method Of figuring, the machinery would
have no value after 10 years had expired.
If a binder that was purchased for $3.50
four years ago, were sold in 1919 for $3.50,
and one used 1920 as the depreciation
rate, the binder would upon the basis
of the depreciation rate be worth 500

OF gonorrhea from rising. The complications
OF gonorrhea are many. Those that are
OF great importance--loss OF manhood sterility
and structure which nearly always come from
uncurcd cases OF gonorrhea. So often in my
general practice | have old men coming into
the office saying that they have lost their
manhood and as moi as vigorous as they
use to be. On obtaining their history and
examining them | find that they have at
some time suffered with gonorrhes and were
not properly cured. On curing them OF the
chronic gonorrhea their manhood soon re-
turned.
Outlines so many families desire children
and the husband blames The wife. and the
wife blames the husband ebecause they do
not have children. Often times the unfor-
tunate wife is subjected to an operation with
the hope of bearing children and indeed it is
not always the fault of the innocent wife,
but in the majority OF cases il is due to the
past that the husband had during his younger
days OF gonorrhea and il bias made him sterile
because he was not properly cured.
To the men let me advise you not to
always blame your wife because you have no
children. The fault may he within yourself
In conclusion. | wish to warn the men
against the prostitute because the miserable
business OF prostitution rapidy spreads this
disease. Also If you are to Be unfortunate
as TO become infected it will pay you TO first
seek good advice and follow IT implicitly.

ABOUTsTHE'l BRAl-
LIAM COLONIAL
ton PLAN

Perhaps one of the greatest move
ments ever organized in America Is
the organization being formed IN Shi-
cago, Illinois, known as the Brazilian
American Colonization Syndicate.
This Syndicate is being organized. tor
the purpose of giving the American
of color an opportunity to purchase
fertile soil in a prosperous country
where there are no discriminatory
laws. where the colored mans future
progress will not be impeded and he
can reach any political and economic
position that any other citizen can
obtain. The Syndicate is planning TO
take FIVE hundred families to the state
OF Motto Crosse, Brazil.
Their first colony will be located
within a few miles OF Cuyuba, the
capital OF the state of Motto Crosse.
Cuyuba has a population OF 3O,Ooo.
AT present its connection with the
outside world is by river transporta-
ton to Corumba, which in turn. is
connected by railroad to Santos.
seaport. This will make it possible to
quickly ship their crops to market.
The land will sell for about FIVE
dollars per acre. There IS about "a
acres in each hectare. Each settler
must buy one hundred hectares which
will cost $3.50. His first payment
will be $4l7 which must be paid be
fore he leaves the United States. This
land is located on the highlands of
Brazil, is slightly rolling, partly tim
bered. we'll watered with abundance
OF grazing grass. The climate is ideal
with an average temperature the year
round OF Is degrees Fahrenheit.
Their plan is to leave with their
first settlers June !, 1921.
They are anxious to obtain expert
cneed farmers. cotton and tobacco
growers, veterinary surgeons, car
penters, brick masons, blacksmiths,
wagon and harness makers, stationary
engineers, men who have had expert
enoe in sugar rehneries, saw mills,

Then too, the importance OF Venereal IN
lection has not only been considered 100
lightly by the public, but the physician MN
self has not seemed to realize the importance
OF these diseases. The public health depart
ment expects to bring together all the latest
methods in the treatment OF these diseases
and also the latest methods in the proven
ton OF these diseases SO that they may De
controlled and prevent their rapid spread
Gonorrhea is the last one OF these venereal
diseases that we have not discussed. At tins
time we wish to consider this disease and ITS
effects in men. As has been previously SAID
Gonorrhes has been too lightly considered
not only by the public but also by phys-
clans. The average physician has not taught
his patients the Importance OF thorough
cure for gonorrhea and that simply stopping
the discharge is not curing the disease. The
disease is not cured until the microscope shows
that there no gonorrhea germs present
in the urinary canal and Just how long this
takes, God only knows Some cases are cured
in ten days others take IRON tour to SIX
weeks and in some cases a longer time. As
has been said by some author Every body
knows when gonorrhea begins, but God only
knows when it ends" Ii should be impressed
upon the minds OF individuals suffering from
gonorrhea first TO refrain from sexual inter
course and sexual excitement and second to
refrain from drinking any alcohol or alcoholic
beverages. Gonorrhea in men is OF great
importance 1t has been estimated that about
IS or 90 per cent OF all men have at some time
Der suffer from uncured gonorrhea or chronic
gonorrhea The reason that there are so
many uncured cases is because so many in
dividuals at the time OF infection try to treat
themselves or use some patent medicine
given to them by some inexperienced drug
clerk or friend 1t should be remembered
that each case OF acute gonorrhea needs the
supervision OF physician; not the advertising
terested in your money than in the cure OF
the disease, but a reputable physician who
treats you as the person TO be sought. II
you are unable to pay physician you should
not neglect yourself, but go to the clinic
or government hospital where you can obtain
treatment free. The state has gone to
considerable expense in placing at your dis
posal stations or hospitals where you can
obtain free treatment.
The acute stages or the beginning Of yonor-
rhea is seldom overlooked. 1t begins in man as
smarting or burning sensation when he URN
ates. Later on this is followed by a dis
charge OF yellow greenish pus. and at this
time the urine becomes cloudy. This is
followed by frequent urinations, painful cree
tons at night and sometimes chordee or
erection in which the penis is bent over in
an arch or to one side or another.
1t is during this stage that individuals should
not have intercourse with anyone and also
drink alcoholic beverages. II is in this stage
that he also stands the best chance for a
thorough cure and prevent the complications

that fully 500 more persons were unable to
