Officials in charge of the fair proclaim
that this year has set a record in the
size and number of exhibits from all
over the state, which have been gath
cred together to show the progress
made in animal husbandry. industry
and fine arts in Indiana. The many
exhibits and greater variety OF dis
plays have presented a problem In

by adding tents to the regular display
buildings to house the overflow.
Fifty acres of ground are covered
by the machinery exhibits, which show
machinery for use in agriculture and
farm work, an extension by about Is
per cent over last year, when forty
acres were covered by this division.

Farm Losses.

The loss of a growing crop is not
proper deduction from income, mas
much as the value of the crop had not
been taken into gross income The
loss of a building or of machinery
through storm. lightning, flood, etc, is
an allowable deduction, but care should
be used to ascertain the correct loss
sustained. as restricted by income tax
regulations.
No deduction is allowed in the case
of loss of animals raised on the farm,
but a loss is deductible from gross in.
come if the animals had been pur
chased for draft or breeding purposes.
Shrinkage-in in weight or value of farm
products held for favorable market
prices cannot be deducted as loss, for
the reason that when such products
are sold the shrinkage will be reflected
in the selling price.
Sale of Farms and Land.
The value of agricultural lands has
been jumping during the past few
years, and during 1919 many owners
sold out part or all of their lands at
big profits All such gains constitute
income and must be taken into the net
income for the year.
Any person who sold part of a farm
or ranch, or part of parcel of land,
must also show any gains realized by
the sale.
The method of figuring gains and
losses on such tranSa ctionS is pre-
scribed in the Income Tax regulations
copies Of which may be secured from
Internal Revenue Collectors.
Forms for Returns.
The Internal Revenue Bureau has
issued an improved Form 1040F for
the use Of farmers. This form, to.
gether with Form 1040A or 1040, will
gether with Form 1040A or 1910, will
give the farmer explicit information
as to how to properly figure his net
income for 1919:
There are two methods of figuring a
farmers income tax return this year
He may make his return on the basis
of the difference between the money
and goods received for his products
and the cash paid out for actual allow
able farm expenses within the year
Or he may make his return on the ac-
crual basis, which means computing
the receipts and expenses that pertain
TO the taxable year, excluding income
earned and expenses incurred in pre-
vious or succeeding years.

This is the season Of the year when
the Philippines become the playground
for the entire orient. It is carnival
season in Manila.
In 1908 the first Philippine carnival
was held on historic Wallace Field in
Manila in February, when the climate
of the islands is at its best, and each
succeeding year there has been a larg-
er and more elaborate celebration.
The 1920, or Victory Carnival, will be
the greatest event of its sort ever held
anywhere in the Far East.
There are commercial and govern
ment exhibits in connection with the
carnival, and on no other occasion is it
possible to gain at once such a COM

and if the farm or business income
plus his other income was sufficient to
require an income tax return a com

A farmer should ascertain the gross
income of his farm by computing all
gains derived from the sale or ex-
change of his products, whether pro-
duced on the farm or purchased and

Farm Expenses.
From his gross income a farmer is
allowed to charge off all of his neces-
sary expenses in the conduct of the
farm during the year These include
costs of planting, cultivating, harvest
ing and marketing. In addition to
these costs he may deduct money spent
for ordinary farm tools of short life
bought during the year, such as SHOW
els, rakes, etc. Also. the cost of feed
purchased for his live stock may be

value of his own products fed to ami
mails is not a deductible item.
Other farm expenses allowable are
the cost of minor repairs on buildings
(but not the dwelling house), on fences,
wagons ard farm machinery also bills
paid for horseshOeing, stock powders,
rock salt, services of veterinary, insur-
ance Except on dwelling house), gaso-
line for operating power and sundry
other expenses which were paid for in
cash.
As to hired help, all the productive
labor is a deductible expense; but the
wages of household servants, or help
hired to improve the farm, as in tree
planting, ditching, etc, cannot be
claimed against earnings A farmer is
not allowed to claim a salary for him

ons, tanks, windmills and other farm
equipment which is used in the con-
duct of the farm.
AS to autos and tractors, the cost of
these is not an expense, although the
cost of their upkeep is an allowable
deduction if the machines are used ex-
clusively for farm purposes and not
for pleasure Also, in such gases, de-
duction for wear and tear is allowed.

Pleasant Trip 0ut-Lack of AssOcia-
ton Only Drawback

Los Angeles, California, Jan'y 5.
Editor Censor: AS we have vacat-
ed our old home at Alhambra and NOV
ed to this place would ask that you
change the address of the Censor, as
we are always anxious to get it and
the home news it always contains.
We came by the way of Chicago, New
Orleans, on the Southern Pacific, and
we never had finer trip, as we stop
ped in Chicago and one day in New
Orleans. We found the city much
improved since our visit ten years ago
and the transfer of our train at this
place was one of the wonders that
will not soon forget The river is
very deep and wide and all trains are
transferred on barge so large that
they can take two trains at a time,
and we did not know the train left
the ground and run onto the barge, as
it is so large it does not seem to settle
| in the water. We travelled one full
| day in Texas and the eastern part of
the state looks very prosperous and
good farming land. The western part
looks very dry and should not want
to try farming in that part of the
state. Cattle all through New Mex
leo, Arizona and the dry belt look
fine and the cattle men say they have
plenty of feed if the snow does not
cover il up.
| The weather has been the finest of
any winter we have seen here-so far.
On New Years day we took in the
tournament of roses at Pasadena and
the great foot ball game between
Harvard and Oregon. 1t was some
game believe me. / never saw two
teams so evenly matched and never
men put in more pep" in a game than
they did. They had about % men on
each side, and / think they had hem
all in the game, as they were leading
or carrying one cut about all the time
and rushing in new man. Some got
back in the fray second time. They
sure did some great work and the
east won by one point, to our great
satisfaction. But the 10000 were
about all for Oregon and the west.
There was not tickets to go half way
around and fabulous prices were paid
for seat. One man paid as high as
500.
Wish you old friends and neighbors
could be cut here to enjoy the fine
weather and the many things to see.
That is the only thing l don't like out
here. You never see any one. you
know and the few you get acquainted
with are coming and going all the
time. Hoping that you may all have
fine winter and that we may meet
you all in the spring time, am,
Very truly yours
