Deputy Internal Revenue Collector II

three days this week that he has
been here the accommodating deputy
has answered thousands of questions
and aided hundreds of taxpayers in
getting matters Strengthened out with
Uncle Sam on their past years in
come. Incidentally Mi. PEBBLES has
taken in several thousand dollars in
income taxes, as all Of the taxpayers
give checks for at least one-fourth OF
their taxes, and many of them have
settled in full for the year While
there are of course those who strenu
ously object to paying as they do to
paying any taxes the majority of the
people agreed that the income tax
based alone on ones ability to pay, is
the fairest of all taxes.
The late date upon which indiyid
ual income taxes can be paid to avoid
penalties is on March rs. Corpora
tions, under certain conditions, may
get an extension of time until May
10, but no extension has been granted
to individuals.

Centreyille was visited This week by
Warren II. King, district engineer of
the water resources branch OF the
United States geological survey, and
is here in the interest Of TIC water
possibilities and development in this
section and is putting a suage in
Duck river near Centreyille, in order
to fnd the velocity and volume of
this rivers water.
He expressed the belief that this
river has a fall of about ten feet to
the mile, and forecast the plan that
Centreyille and its countryside would
soon see the day when power, lights
and probably heat would be supplied
frcm Che near streams, and as well
electric power could be applied to the
railroads as it has been done in plac-
eS in the United States and other

COUNTY'S TAXES
CAN'T Be LEVIED
UNTIL OCTOBER
MUST WAIT UNTIL FINAL APPRo
VAL OF ASSESSMENTS BY THE
STATE BOARD.
But MUST PROVIDE FOR SCHOOLS
Probable That Resolution viii Be
Adopted at April Term Pledging
Court to Make an Adequate Levy
in October.

| Due to the fact that the assessment
or property in Maury county will not
be certified back to the local authori
ties by the state board of equal,zers
until after the meeting of the county
court in July it is probable that the
tax levied will not be fixed for this
year until the October term of the
court.
1t will be impossible to fix the rates
for county, school, bridge and sinking
fund purposes until after the assess
ment of the county is finally fixed by
the board. Until that is done the
court will be completely in the dark
as to the amount to levy in order to
raise a certain fund.
The road levy has already been
made. 1t was made by the county
court at the January term. The law
virtually fixes that levy at not less
than 20 nor more than 25 cents on the
500. No matter what the assessment
of the county may be the road levy,
under the law, will remain at twenty
cents on the $780,
There are going to be number of
complications because of the inability
of the court to make the levy for the
year until October, chiefly in the
school department. 1t is probable
however, that the tax levy committee,
which has already been appointed
will meet, calculate the amounts nee
essary for the elementary and county
high schools and will present a resolu
ton to the court pledging it, when the
tax levy is made, to levy sum suffi-
cient to provide for that amount
That is the course that was taken
last year when it was understood that
the new assessment was going into
effect for that year. Unless some
thing of this kind is done the county
board of education and the high school
boards cannot arrange for the employ
ment of faculties or make any other
provision for the operation of the
schools.
Tax Assessor Williams is expected
to complete his labors by the first Of
June. The county board of equalia-
ton will then sit and revise the fig
ures. They must certify the results
to the state board by July 1. After
that the state board will review the
work and place its stamp of approval
on it.

COLD SNAP FINDS
COAL YARDS EMPTY
LOCAL DEALERS HAVING Diff
CULT TIME KEEPING PEOPLE
SUPPLIED WITH FUEL.

There Is no surplus coal i'll COlum'
bia and the local coal dealers are hard
put to fill any orders these days. AS
soon as car of coal comes, it is i'm
mediately apportioned out among Gus
toners in small amounts. They are
making every effort to keep the people
with some coal but to do this all or
ders must be scaled. Both of the deal.
ers have orders book for very much
more coal than they can expect to de
liver for month Or more unless
there should be a decided change in
the weather.
The cold snap of the past week
found the coal yards practically emp
ty and the coal that is being distrib
utcd in the city is taken from cars
that straggle in. 1t has been almost
impossible for a month or more fol-
dealers here to get coal because OF
the car shortage. The mine opera
tors are not encouraging in their re
ports and in some sections it is stat
ed that the miners are becoming dis
satisfied because the mines are run
ming on such short time.

FARMERS BEHIND
WITH WORK.; DUE
TO BAD WEATHER
ONLY A COMPARATIVELY SMALL
PORTION OF THE CROP OF
OATS YET SOWN.
CORN LANDS TO Be PREPARED
Lamb Crop is Considered Very Prom
ising-Pastures, However, Will Be
Unusually Late This Spring-Win-
ter Crops Fair.

Except for an adequate supply OF
labor of the right sort there is moth
ing that the farmers of Maury county
desire so much as some farming
weather." Conditions have been any.
thing but favorable for month to do
farm work. Only a small percent of
the oats crop has been sown and not
all of the oat lands have been turned
Where clover was sown during the
pretty days of last month with the
oats much of it has been killed by the
freezes. This is an unusually heavy
calamity because of the high prices of
the seed. Some farmers have already
stated, however that they were going
to SOW again, that red clover was too
valuable crop for the soil to neglect
anything that might get it. Others
will not make a second attempt but
after the oats are harvested will SOW
either COW peas or soy beans, using
them as legume crop and soil build
er and also for hay supply for the
coming winter
Not only do the farmers need good
weather to finish oat sowing but they
need it to prepare the lands for corn,
of which the acreage will be heavy
this year. The condition of the small
wheat crop is not encouraging. The
winter cover crops have not made
very good growths this year, due to
the many quick and extreme changes
in the weather. Constant freezing
and thawing have injured the plans.
Farmers who have sheep report UNI
usually fine prospects for the lamb
crop this year. The lambs are gener-
ally numerous and they have done
we'll. The losses due to cold weather
have been small and they will go on
pastures in fair condition. The pas
lures are going to be late. 1t looks
now like farmers will have to feed at
least until the first of next month Dc
casionally pastures are ready by
March l, but they are just about as
far behind this season as ever known.
