USING COMMERCIAL.
 FERTILIZER PAYS
GEORGIA AND CAROLINA FARM FRS HAVE PROVED THIS,
 SAYS MR. c0TTRELL.
TOUR IS A GREAT BENEFIT
Farmers Believe That Fertilizers In- crease Yield in Favorable Sea- sons, but Cost So Much It
 Does Not Pay to Use Them.

Little Rock-The recent tour through Georgia and the Caroltnas proves conclusively that heavy use of fertilizers pays. if it's use is accom- panied by other good farming condi- sions according to II. M Cottrell az riculturist of the Arkansas Profitable Farming Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce.
 "When you want an Arkansas cot son grower to investigate the adyisa- Dility of his using commercial fertil- azer heavily, he always replies that fertilizers make an Increase in yield sn favorable seasons, but they cost so much that it does not pay to use them" says Mir Cottrell When you go to the Arkansas supply merchant with the suggestion that he study the needs of the soils on his customers farms, learn how much and what kind of fertilizer they need and then use ealesmanship that will induse his GUS 1omers to buy, he will tell you that fertilizers make an increase in the yield in favorable seasons, but they cost so much that it does not pay to use them. Uauslly when you talk to a supply merchant about inducing his farm customers to use fertilizers lib erally and make more money, he will tell you that five or eight years ago he sold a hundred pounds an acre of fertilizer to three or four negro fam flies. the season was wet, the grass got in the cotten and they quit and went to town and did not pay for the fertilizer Therefore, Mir. Merchant does not believe in fertilizers; will keep only the lowest grade and try ao get his customers to buy small quantities only. This is the standard excuse kept in stock by at least 4,00O merchants.
 When a live. wide awake Arkan- sas cotton groker goes to his bank to borrow the money to buy enough fertilizer to double his yield, the bank CT baiks and says that money spent for fertilizer is wasted that one time the bank loaned farmer on worn-out hill land the money to buy l75 pounds of acid phosphate an acre for his cot ton. and there was six weeks drouth and the cotton burned up. The banker does not say so. but he leaves the impression that because of this experience the stockholders, directors and officers of the bank know that no kind of commercial fertilizer on any kind of soil in any season will ever pay in Arkansas.

And Things You Should Know
About 1t.

Twenty thousand persons last year
paid a fine OF SIS each for failure to
file an income-tax return for 1918
although their incomes for that year
was not taxable.
The revenue act provides an ex-
emption of 81 900 for single persons,
s., 900 for married persons and heads
of families, and an additional exemp-
ton OF 5000 for each person depen-
dent upon the taxpayer, II such person
is under Is years OF age or incapable
Of self-support. The delinquents last
year were persons whose income ex-
actly equaled the amount fthe ex-
emptions and who considered it un-
necessary, others whose income was
nontaxable because of dependents,
and who we're under similar mis-
taken impression.
For example, single man with a
net income of $1,000 was supporting
a sister for whom he was allowed an
exemption of 5000 placing his income
in the nontaxable list. For this reason
he did not file return. When his
delinquency was discovered through
return filed by the employer, who
is required to report payments oil

words sole support" are used In the
sense that there Is no other person
TO whom the dependent may look tor
support. Income from other sources,
such as interest on stock, bonds, etc,
IL meagre enough still to leave the
recipient dependent, does not preclude
claim for exemption such income
must be included in the return OF the
head OF the family.
Can Not Divide Exemption.
The $1,000 additional exemption al
lowed the head OF family can not
be divided between two single mem
.bers of a household A division of
responsibility excludes the parties
from such claim. A single person who
does not qualify as the head of fami-
ly may still claim an exemption of
5000 for each person dependent upon
him for support. II such person is
under 1s years of age or incapable OF
self-support A son who has left home
but who sends to his mother more
than half the sum required for her
support is entitled to the 5000 exemp-
ton provided the mother can not sup
port herself. Otherwise the amount
must be considered as a gift, and,
therefore, is not deductible. A son
living at home and supporting his
mother may claim the $4,000 exemp-
ton allowed the head of family, but
not an additional exemption of 5000
unless the mother is incapable OF self
support.
