potatoes grown here of superior quail

ty potatoes command a premium on
all others in the markets. Five car

Before the season closes the ship

HERE'S USEFUL
INFORMATION ON
TAX RETURNS

While all individuals and corpo-
rations who filed income tax returns
fer 1918 must file similar reports
fer the calendar year 1919, many tax
payers are not aware that the tax
rates effective for the calendar year
1919 are somewhat lower than those
shat applied for 1918.
In 1918 income tax returns, indi-
viduals were assessed a normal tax
Of 6 per cent upon the first $4,000

this exemption, an additional ex-
emption of 5000 may be added for
each dependent person receiving

such dependent is under 18 years OF
age, or is physically or mentally in

This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When doctor uses a medicine him

after eating and other ailments. It has
proved a success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll of PE-RU-NA. 1t is the best of all
tonics."
DR.. Wagner, out of the fullness of his
own personal experience, for the good OF
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which he knows to be good.
You may be sure doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be-
yond doubt of It's value.
Whether your trouble be a cough or q
cold, or more subtle catarrhal election
