HEAD OF FAMILY
GETS $1,000 EXEMPTION

Single persons, though required to
file q return If their net income for
1920 was 81 900 or more, are, if they
are the heads Of families, granted
special exemption under the revenue
laws. Such a person is defined by
treasury regulations as "a person
who actually supports and main
tains in one household one or more
individuals who are closely connected
with him by blood relationship, re-
lationship by marriage or by adopt
ion, and whose right to exercise fam
ily control and provide for these de-
pendent inGsviduals is based upon
some moral or legal obligation"
Such persons are allowed the ex-
emption Of $4,000 granted a married
person. IN addition, they are al
lowed a credit Of $500 for each de-
pendent under is years of age or
incapable of self support because
mentally or physically defective.
A married person living with hus-
band and wife can not claim an ad-
ditional $4,000 exemption as the
head of a family. His or her ex-
emption is based upon the marital
status, irrespective Of the support Of
others living in the same household.
The additional 5000 credit for de-
pendents does not apply to the hus-
band on wife Of a taxpayer. For
example, il married man supports
a father who is incapable of self
support, he is entitled to the 5000
credit for such person. If through
force Of circumstances he supports his
wife away from home he is entitled
To the $1,000 exemption allowed a
married person, but not 5000 credit
for a dependent.
A son who has left home, but who
sends his mother more than one-half
the sum required for her support is
entitled to the 5000 credit, provided
the mother can not support herself.
Otherwise the amount must be con-
sidered as Gift, and, therefore the
credit is not allowed. A son living
at home and supporting his father,
mother or other relative may claim
the $1,000 exemption allowed the
head Of q family, but not the 5000
credit unless such relative is under
IL years Of age or incapable of self
support.

J. ~ HAKPEk flation of prices
had hurt the farmer more than any
other class, and that on this account
the farmer is entitled to every consid-
GRAFTON within reason.
AT such time as this when the
farmer is facing the problem Of which
crops to grow, and how much he can
venture to spend in their production,
Mr., Harper says, that he, as farmer
himself, knows that it is the most diff
ficult situation Of the kind he has ever
confronted.
This is the way this agricultural
authority figures out the proposition
Of profitable crop production in 1921:
Grow enough food and feed crops
to supply as far as possible the needs
of the family, the tenants and live.
stock. Then pick out the kind of cash
crops that seem to offer the best pros
poets.
Cotton will always be one of the
best cash crops that Southern farm.
err can grow. No cotton farmer can
afford to throw cotton aside alto
gether.
But cotton should not be the only
cash crop. It would only be another
case of carrying all the eggs in one
basket. 1t is better to go to market
with more than one crop. Among
these other crops are peanuts legume
hays, tobacco, sweet potatoes, sugar
cane, sorghum, rice and perhaps other
crops. In addition there should be
gradual adding, as means viii allow.
of more livestock, beginning with hogs
preferably and taking ON other ami
mails as soon as possible.
I'm facing the problem of profitable
crop production for the year 1921, two
facts must be considered. % Crop
prices are low, (2) Crop producing
expenses have not fallen correspond
lngly.
"The farmer must remember that
when crop prices are low, it takes
more Of the crops to cover the pro
duction cost. This narrows the mar
gin Of profits. Therefore, if farmer
does not look we'll to keeping up his
acre yields. there will be no margin
left above the cost of production.
Always, the most expensive Yields
are the low yields and the most re-
muneratiYe are the high yields. II
there are losses to be sustained, as
was the case IN 1920, the farmer who
grew the greatest yields per acre lost
least.
"A safe and sane policy that needs
especial emphasis for 1921, is: Guard
your profits with high acre Yields.
This involves good preparation Of the
seed bed, the use Of high producing
seed, liberal fertilization and thorough
cultivation. A neglect to employ any
one Of these to the proper extent may
mean that the farmer will find him.
self poorer at the end OF the season
than at the beginning
Labor is the greatest item OF cost
in producing crop yield. 1t must
be used to the extent Of thorough cuI.
tivation Fertilizers are next in tha
list Of cost items. Since high Yields
per acre are so essential in times u
low prices Of crops, and since fertiliz.
ers increase acre yields more than anv.
thing else, they cannot be reduced i
1921. In fact, 1t may be that they will
have to be depended upon more than
ever, to make acre yields that will
be profitable.
AN investment in good seed ia one
Of the best that a farmer can MAZE
ct any time
In word, this is time for farm
efficiency, faith and courage. These
virtues exercised, the farmer will
emerge from the postwar struggle vic
toriously."

FARM HELP WAGE.

Wages paid for farm help in Mime
sofa thi summer will average $2.15 a
day for day laborers, and $3.50 a
month, according to statewide sur
vey recently completed by the Mime
sofa Farm Bureau Federation. The
inquiry was the first of series to be
made every month during the pro-
ducing season, in an effort to precent
violent fluctuations in wages and to
provide steady employment at fair pay,
Federation officers said. Statements
OF average wages and conditions of
supply and demand in the farm labor
market will be exchanged with the
Farm Bureaus of other Northwest
states. The first Minnesota survey
showed that, while cash wages this
year are from 20 to 40 per cent lower
than last years scale, there has been
little curtailment in the demand for
farm help.
