ton is OF wood cement brick stone. If farm or We
hces, machinery etc it should be stated If the
payer received royalties the word royaties should be
used to denote the of income And for convenience
IN checking the return the taxpayer should separate the
various kinds Of property and show separately the fig
lres OF rents, expenses, ETC., incident to each class
LII any OF your tenants lessees paid you $1,000 er
more IN rents during 1919 you should show the names oil
