Profit on Sale of Farm

Last December the FEDERAL district
court in Connecticut handed down de-
cision to the effect that an increase in
the value of an investment in the case
OF sale by non-trader. that Is, one
who does not make a business of trad
ing, 10 not income within the meaning
of income tax law.
Ia the case which brought this de-
cision, the property holder had sold Sc
curties at large profits above their
value in 1918. The Internal Revenue
Department considered these profits as
income, and demanded that they be to-
cIuded as income for purposes of taxa
tion. The Federal judge. however.
holds that these profits are not income
at all. bot an increase in capital.
This Is matter of very great In
terest to all farmers who have sold
land at profit and who have included
this profit as part Of their income and
have paid taxes on it. The Revenue
Department has held that profits made
on the sale of farms are income, and
has required taxpayers TO iaclad. the
p bit Ia to-, inc ms for the yea in
which the property is transferred or 10
which sufficient payment has been
made to insure the sale.
Quite likely The Revenue Department
will adhere TO its rules until this case
is carried to the supreme court and a
decision rendered, 1t would seem that
there is very fair chance that the
supreme court will uphold the federal
district court. Ii that shouts be the
result, We do not know whether those
who have slresdy paid taxes on such
profits would be able - recover the
tixes so paid, unless they paid udder
protest. but hey shonld make careful
record Of such transactions and be pre-.
pared to file their claims.
All who have made profits thru sale
of land or other investments during
1920 should raise the point with the
revenue officer, whether it should be

1t Is grievous to US to see turnout the
country the burning of stalks, sedge
grass, and other vegetable matter on
the fields. These things are. valuable
as plant food and the burning year after
year has played an important part in
reducing the fertility of the fields of
the country. These things should be
cut up with stalk cutter or disk har-
row and plowed under to decay and
return their plant food to the soil.
They are worth many dollars for each

Somerville hethodists are planning
entertainment for next week for the
District Missionary Conference which
will be attended by some 200 delegates
and visitors who will hold sessions here
from Tuesday till Friday. The enter
tainment of this gathering Of missionary
women and visitors is quite an under
taking for town of Somerville's size,
but local church workers are going at
the plans in way that insures taking
care of the visitors in first class shape.
Somerville is to have a new grocery
store and produce house within the
present month. J. F. Wright of the
fifteenth district has rented the store
on the west side of the square which
was occupied last year by ]. B. Burnett
& Brother, and will open a grocery
house and will give particular attention
to the buying of country produce of
every kind offered. Mr.. Wright has
had several years experience with this
line of business in the fifteenth d s
trict and will come to his venture here
with this successful experience behind
him.
We note with much interest in Mem
phis papers that n movement is on foot
todetach districts 8, 10, II and IL from
Fayette county and attach them to
Shelby county. We hardly take the
matter seriously. because every one
knows that Shelby county would not
care to take on this extra burden of
road building and other improvement
when her treasury is already depleted
and her revenues rsufficient for present
needs. So far as we are concerned, we
would hate very much to see these dis
tricts cut from this county for the pur-
pose of adding to Shelby or for any
other purpose, and we hope that the
movement, will not assume any serious
proportions.
County Tax Assessor S. P. Crawford
was in town Saturday and when asked
about the new assessment of property
he is to- make this year told us he
would get busy with this work at a
very early date. Ordinarily he would
place valuations this year only upon
the personal property, leaving last
years valuations on real estate to
stand for the present year. But the
legislature last north passed a bill
authorizing new assessment on real
estate for this year too, and Assessor
Crawford will soon be busy with the
work. AS The Falcon understands the
measure, tho we have not seen a com.
plete copy. the the same routine of
statisticians. district committees of
valuation. etc. etc. are to operate in
fixing values this year as did last year,
for which we are deeply sorry. If the
assessor were allowed to 60 ahead and
perform the duties he was elected for,
we believe it would be made much
better job
