If Moe is able to continue play,
Idaho fans may witnss the rejuvena-
tion of the HUNTER Campbell Moe
scoring combination which carried off
two northest championships. Captain
Elra Hunter is beginning to round
into his usual stellar form and al
though Drem Campbell has been
handicapped by an injured foot, it is
believed that he may be travelling a
speedy gait before the conference
games begin.
Campus enthusiasm over the return
of Moe has received a severe blow,
however, in the form of an announce
ment that Pat Perrine of Nez Perce,
member of the 1920 American Olym-
pic team and one of the greatest all
.duced, may be unable to turn cut for
basketball.
Perrine severely wrenched his left
foot while broad-jumping lass spring
and although he played through every
minute of Idaho's 1920 football sche-
dule, the injury is still troubling Lin:
If he finds that pounding over hard
basketball floor is painful process,
he may withdraw from the indoor

WINTER SHOWS
 ARE GOOD FOR
 SOIL IN GARDEN

Winter snows and hard freezing weather, reported in many parts of the United States this winter, are the best agencies for getting garden soils in condition, according to United
 States Department of Agriculture
 specialists. Soil is nothing more nor less than finely devided rock with
 decayed vegetable matter mixed with 1t. Every time the water freezes in
 the crevice of a rock it makes an
 opening a little wider until finally
 the rock is split into fragments; more
 water gets into the openings in these
 fragments and freezes and so the
 work of reduction goes on forever.
 Every tme the groud freezes new
 soil is formed, but this new soil is in
 need of manure or decaying vegeta- b1e matter before it will hold water in minute quantities and be in con- dition to produce crops.
 Every time the soil is stirred in cultivating, the particles are ground together, and they rub or break off still finer particles. If the soil is | too wet when it is worked, the par 1 tic1es will become cernented together | and there will be clods or lunpy soil | The little hairlike roots of plants de- velop in the spaces between the par | ticles of soil. Here is where they gel 1 their water and along with it food ] materials that are essential to the | growth of the plant.

INCOME TAX ON SALE PROFITS.

The big profits realized in 1919 by sales of dwellings, apartment houses, machinery, farm lands, and other property are subject to the income tax. Every citizen or resident who made such sales must now figure up the gains, as prescribed in Form 1O4O or 1O4O-A, and consider this profit to- gether with other gains and income in determining the liability for a re- turn and a tax.
 The sale of part of a farm or part of a parcel of land brings with it the responsibility of figuring equitabfy the gain realized. Consideration must be given, not only to acreage, but. to the quality or desirability of the part sold, in its relation to the entire tract or farm
 Many persons disposed of stocks and bonds during 1919. Any gains or losses in such transactions affect the net income.
 If the profits from sales, plus other income, received in 1919 by an un- married person was s1.000 or more, g return is due. A married couple mus file a, return if profits from sales plu: other income was sz,e80 or more.
