mature hares will be sent to this county
and these will be liberated about the Bar

they are expected to thrive best. By next
autumn they are expected to increase to
such an extent as to furnish their measure

are to come later from other States and
will be distributed in many sections in
order that they may become mixed with
those new found about the country and
increase the number rapidly.

Campaign Against Weeds Under.
taken BY Department.

The United States Department of Ag-
riculture has set on foot what is intended
to be the most comprehensive weed sur
vey ever undertaken. Up to date com
paratively little is known of American
farm weeds. They are classified in bota
MES and herbariums, but there are no de.
finite data in regard to their spread; the
prevalence of any particular weed in any
locality; the amount of annual damage;
new weeds, increase of old species; or
local methods of eradication
To supply the need for such data the
section of weed Investigations has sent a
QUESTIONABLE to all the more than 900
county agents of the department This
questionable asks the names Of the five
worst weeds in each county in order Of
their importance; the methods, if any,
used by farmers to combat these weeds /;
and what weed problems are especially
serious in any particular county.
Comparatively few native American
weeds have given farmers serious trouble,
but new varieties are constantly arriving
in foreign seed and through other sources.
Some of these have become such pests
that entire farms have been abandoned TO
them.
1t is the purpose of the department to
use the projected survey as basis of OPP
Grafton in directing a widespread war on
the weeds now here. or the Importation of
any new ones. and to seek any local eradi-
cation methods which may be worth gen.
eral dissemination.

INCOME TAX FACTS YOU
SHOULD KNOW

Frequent inquiries are received by
collectors of internal revenue from
storekeepers and other business men
as to whether the taxpayer in business
for himself may deduct from his gross
earnings an amount Of salary paid to
himself. Wages or salary drawn by a
taxpayer from his own business are
more in the nature of charge out Of
profits than a charge against profits.
If deductiblc they would merely be
added to his income and the effect
would be to take money out of one
pocket and put it in another. There
fore, claims or such deductions are
not allowable.
Salaries paid to minor children en-
ployed in the conduct Of taxpayers
business are not allowable deductions.
If, however, a son or daughter has at
tanned majority, or is allowed free
use of their earnings without restric-
ton, a reasonable amount paid as
compensation for their service may be
claimed.
A farmer who employs man to
assist in the operation of his farm
may deduct from gross income the
amount paid for such services. Like
wise, if he employs woman whose
entire time is occupied in taking care
of the milk, cream, butter, and churns,
or if her services are devoted entirely
to the preparation and serving of
meals furnished farm laborers and in
caring for their rooms, the compensa-
ton paid her is an allowable deduc-
ton. If, however, she is employed
solely in caring for the farmers own
household 20 deduction can be made.
In arriving at net income upon
which the tax is assessed, deductions
may be made for ordinary and nee
essary business expenses. The rev.
enue act specifically prohibits the de-
duction of personal, family, or living
expenses. Such expenses include rent
for home, wages of servants, cost OF
food and clothing for the family, edu-
cation of children, "and all items con-
nected with the maintenance, we'll
being, and pleasure of the taxpayer
and his family"

Monkey Convicted a Killer.

A monkey was brought into the
court at COnstantinople in connection
with the murder of the manager of
the Alderman circus, which had been
giving performances for a season In
the Turkish capital.
A married couple named Starr, who
were members Of the circus troupe,
were suspected Of the crime and ar
rested, but no evidence could be dis
covered against them. The judge
thereupOn resorted to a reconstruction
of the crime. The circus manager
had been murdered at moment when
he was feeding an Indian monkey
named Scamp. Starr and his wife
were conducted to the cage.
The instant the animal, which had
previously shown much affection
toward them. saw the couple. II
broke into furious rage, throwing
itself against the bars of Its cage In
its attempts to attack the STAIRS.
At subsequent sitting of the court,
the monkey was led in and had hardly
caught sight of the STAIRS when II
again flew into paroxysm of rage.
The spectacle produced great i'm
preston on the court, and, notwith-
standing their emphatic denials. Starr
and his wife were judged guilty
