Income Tax Facts
You Should MOw.

The Bureau of Internal Reve
nue. has innumerable sources for
checking up persons who fail
or "wilIfully refuse" to file an
income tax return and pay the
amount of tax due.
One of these is the informa-
tion at source" provision of the
revenue act which requires that
reports must be made by all
persons, trustees, guardians,
fiduciaries, and by partnerships,
personal service corporations and
organizations. of payments to
others during the year 1920 of
$1,000 or more. A separate re-
return of information for each
employee whose salary is 81, 600
or more is required of employers.
The return must show the name
and address of each recipient
and the amount paid.
These information returns
which are filed with the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue
at Washington, d. c., are care
fully checked with the returns
of individual income. If John
Doe, who has received a salary
of $1,000 or more during the
year 1920. has failed to report
this payment in his personal re-
turn, he will hear from the col
lector of internal revenue.
Thousands delinquents have
been discovered and penalties
and taxes aggregating hundreds
of thousands of dollars have
been collected as the result of
this audit.

FREEMAN CROWDER YOUNG
EST BUYER TO VISIT
NASHVILLE MARKET.

Freeman Crowder, age 13
years, was among the buyers
visiting the Nashville market last
week, and he demonstrated to
the local wholesalers that he is
thoroughly capable of taking
care of himself when it comes to
buying merchandise. He knew
just what he wanted. and was
quick to recognize quality and
price.
Young Crowder's father, T. F.
Crowder, a prominent merchant
of Gainesboro, had planned to
come to Nashville himself, but
at the last moment was pre-
vented from doing so and sent
his young son, Freeman, as a
representative. Freeman made
the trip to Nashville on the
steamer j. Horton Fall. and says
he likes Nashville so we'll that
he is coming back again. While
in Nashville Mr.. Crowder was
the guest of Mont Conner of Har-
ris, Davis & Go.
Perhaps Nashville is the only
city in the United States that
can boast of having entertained
a buyer so young in years. and
this city is justly proud of this
distinction. 1t is concrete evid-
ence of the confidence in which
her manufactures and whole
salerS are held by the merchants
of the South. This boy while
here placed large orders for
merchandise with local whole
salers, and he did as well as his
father could have done. and
that's saying a whole lot. :

How Much Can | Pay For
Feeder Pigs?

This question is asked by
many feeders of hogs every day.
1t is difficult to tell how much to
pay for feeder pigs unless you
have an idea of what it costs you
to put on a pound of pork. If
you are not economical feeder
you can pay more for feeder pigs
than the feeder who is unpre-
pared and uneconomical. The
feeder who has corn and green
feed can feed pigs with profit
and pay the present market
price for pigs
The old rule was that a farm
er can feed so cents corn to
5 cent hogs. Today we have
10 cent hogs and corn is less
than one dollar per bushel.
Figuring on the basis of IL bush
els of corn producing 100 pounds
of pork, or approximately 7
pounds of corn to one pound of
pork when corn alone is fed.
Or So 60 for IL bushels of corn.
This will insure 80 cents for
corn plus the cost of marketing
hogs, or $4. 90 per bbl, or $3.50
uer ton for corn when sold thru
the hogs. In other words, &C
cording to present market prices
of hogs and corn this is the most
profitable way to feed hogs by
the use of green feed.
The Kentucky Station says,
Pork can be produced with
green feed on the basis of a
pounds of corn to one pound of
pork" this same record has
been made with corn and erin
son clover in Franklin County
with hogs under ordinary farm
conditions. In Virginia pork has
been produced on clover for four
cents per lb If the farmers has
provided feed it is conservative
to say that one third the corn,
were corn alone is fed. may be
saved. Green feed is the cheap.
est pork producer We have. Be
sides green feed contains pro,
tein. protein producea gaowth.
The average feeder uses toe
mudh corn. This stunts the
growth of pigs and results in un.
profitable production. Corn pro.
duces fat; proteing growth.
There is one dollars difference
in price of light pigs and heavy
pigs on today's market (Feb. l9)
A difference of 81. so between
light pigs and medium hogs.

ITALIAN FOULLY MURDER.
ED NEAR RAVENSCROFT.
WHITE COUNTY.

CpdICd, lSiltl. mdiSii 4. HCd'
ger reports of what seems to be
a foul murder, committed in the
vicinity of Ravenscroft near the
Putnam White County line, have
been received here. The body
of the victim. a young Italian
named Dominco Molinari, has
been brought here following an
inquest by a coroner's jury.
whose verdict was that he came
TO his death at unknown hands
the result of pistol shot. and
that the body had been placed
at the spot where found.
While in the army friend
ship developed between Melinari
and Ben Austin of Ravenscroft
and he came here on visit to
Austin some weeks ago. They
with others came to Sparta on
Feb. %, returning home. on the
evening train. Molinari left
the Austin home sometime that
night and was not seen again by
the family. \
A Younger brother of Ben
Austin's states that the young
Italian had wanted to go out
that evening to get some whis-
ley. but they prevailed on him
not to go. Sometime in the
night he had gotten up partially
dressed. went out and did not
return.
The body was found ten days
latter near the Austin home,
having been placed there the
day before being found as evil
denced by the fact that parties
had passed the spot the day be-
fore and the body was not there.
Also, his clothes were perfectly
dry, although there had been
quite a rain the night before.
The body had been placed SO
as to leave a suicide theory, but
while the bullet entered the
right temple the pistole was
placed practically in the left
hand, it is said.
There are rumors here that
the dead man had from 81, 200 to
$l,500 in cash on his person, but
the Austin boys say if he did
they knew nothing of it. He is
said to have inquired while stay
ing at a Sparta hotel, where
there was a savings bank. In
quiries at the banks here devef-
op the fact that he made nc
deposits. So was on his person
when found.
Various theories are advanced
and many rumors are afloat con-
cerning the crime. One theory
is that he may have gone out
after whiskey and been mista.
