INCOME TAX CHANGES MADE.
All Farmers doing $4,000 Gross Bust
ness Must Make Out Report.

With farm profits less and exemp-
tons higher, advance information on
the income tax, seems to indicate that
more farmers will be required to
make income tax returns this year
than last. This is because of recent
changes in the income tax laws, which
require more farmers to report on
their yearly business, whether they
pay an income tax or not.
"This increase in the number of
farmers making out income returns
will be necessary" declares r N. Mil
Ter, farm management specialist of
the extension service of the State
College, because advance informa-
ton from Washington, d. c., indi-
Gates that returns must be made
where the gross income was $4,000 or
more, whether the net income is
enough to cause the operator to pay
income tax or not.
"The married mans income tax ex-
emption has been raised from $4,000
to $500, and also the exemption for
children and other dependent persons
has been materially increased This
will excuse many farmers who other
wise would have a small tax to pay.

LIME-SULPHUR
HOME MADE SPRAY.
Method of Making Controls Strength
of Spray.

The time for dormant spraying
with lime sulphur is drawing near,
and growers buying their concen-
trates, are asking whether brands
which test 80 degrees Baume are
more or less effective than chose test
ing 26 or % degrees. The answer,
suggests f. G. Wood, extension hor-
ticulturist Of the State College, is not
how high the concentrate tests, but
what formula was sued and how it
was made.
AS rule when growers are making
their own concentrate they do not
have the equipment to mix an effect
i've concentrate which tests more than
26 degrees. Consequently they use
the standard formula of 100 pounds
of sulphur, so pounds of lime and so
gallons of water. They do not try to
get concentrate of more than 26 de-
grees. Concentrates made by this
formula usually analyse about 500
polysulphids or active ingredients.
However, with the equipment used in
factories, they can obtain an excess of
sulphur and are abel to make so de-
gree concentrate, containing q higher
percentage of polysulphids.
A 80 degree would be a greater in
dication of purity than 26 degree
test. Nevertheless, concentrate
testing only 26 degrees, if made with
the same formula that has an excess
of sulphur, and cooked in the same
manner as the 80 degree concentrate
but differing only in that more water
was used in the cooking, should have
just as high a percentage of polysul-
phids. This spray should be just a.
effective when applied to the trees at
the same dilution
Commercial lime sulphur should be
bought on the factories guarantee of
polysulphide content rather than on
the basis of whether it tests 80 de-
grees or 26 degrees.

TAXPAYERS SHOULD ASK FOR
CONFERENCE IN ADVANCE.

The following statement is issued
by the Collector of Internal Revenue,
Burns Poe, for The district of Wash
ington:
To save time and trouble, and, in
many cases, unnecessary eXpendi-
lures, taxpayers having business with
the income tax unit of the Bureau of
Internal Revenue at Washington and
desiring conference with officials in
connection Herewith, are advised to
ask for such conference in advance.
A number of taxpayers and their
representatives appear at the income
tax unit without appointment. and ask
immediate hearings. Frequently the
conference cannot be held at once for
the reason that the papers and infor-
nation relating to the case must be
assembled or the proper official may
be otherwise engaged. The result is
delay of day or two, and added
cost to the taxpayer in the way of
hotel bills, etc
Requests for conference should be
addressed to the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue, Washington, d. c.,
together with a statement of all the
facts in connection with the cases,
and the purpose for which it is de-
sired. The taxpayer will be informed
by letter or telegram of the date APP
pointed for the conference.

FAT JOB WATTS AT ZION.
Instructor in Flat Earth Theory Is
Sought by VOliva.

Zion, Ill.--The astronomical teach
ings of Wilbur Glenn Voliva, overseer
of Zion-that the earth is fiat, sur
rounded by wall of ice, and covered
by canopy in which stars, sun and
moon are hung like chandeliers-now
needs only a competent instructor to
spread the doctrine outside of Zion,
Mr.. Voliva said today. He is hunting
for man to teach Bible astronomy
in the Zion schools.
"1 will back the right man up, give
him good salary and a comfortable
home and we will print books and
pamphlets by the hundreds of thou
sands and will make these Copernican
fools run for shelter" Mr.. Voliva
said.
"Anybody that could believe the
earth is the shape of an orange and
that one man is standing on one side
with his head down and I am standing
on the other side with my head up and
that the whole thing is rotating on
it's axis at 1000 miles an hour moving
in it's orbit at the rate of 100000
miles a day and everything is shoot
ing off toward Hercules, certainly is

ed somewhat to make them easier to
use, but with this change it will be
difficult for some to make them out
Though everything has been made
easier, to the farmer not keeping an
accurate account of his farm opera
tons, it will still be hard to obtain
much information.
Mr. Miller strongly advises the use
of the farm account book throughout
the year so there will be no "bug-
bear" at income tax time. If the
farmer will but use such book and
base his system on the inventory bas-
is, rather than cash basis over a
series of years, it will be an easy
matter for him to fill out his income
tax blanks.

TESTING CATTLE RESULTS IN
QUICKLY ERADICATING TB.

That testing cattle for tuberculosis
and the cleaning up of infected herds
are having permanent effect in re-
ducing the extent of the disease is
shown conclusively by figures recent
ly collected by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture from inspec-
tors in charge of the eradication
work in various parts of the country.
The inspectors were asked t. supply
figures on the results of three or more
tests on badly diseased herds, those
that had not less than 10 per cent of
reactors on the first test The first
test on more than $4,000 cattle in
these bad herds showed that 26 per
cent had tuberculosis. Another test
six months later on the same herds,
from which the reactors had been re-
moved, showed only SO per cent of the
disease. BY another six months the
percentage had gone down to 90. A
fourth test on more than $4,000 of
tucoc Cdttic SiloWcu ollly 10 pei Ntilt
Of tuberculosis.
The reports from which these fig
ures were taken show that under nor
NAL conditions herds very badly dis
eased may be established as relative
ly free in a short time. They also
show that eradication work can be
carried on without destroying the cat
tie industry as is sometimes thought.
Erratic results were obtained on a
very few of the 1882 herds tested, the
list of this class containing less than
100. Out of these 126,66S herds I'M
der observation December l, 1921
there were only very few that had
not shown satisfactory improvement
as result of testing.

AGRICULTURAL STUDY
COURSES PREPARED FOR
RURAL SCHOOLS

State departments of education de-
string to introduce agricultural cours-
es of study into elementary schools
are taking advantage of the assist
ance given by Federal and State au-
thorities in the preparation of suitable
courses. The Office of Agricultural
Instruction of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, in cooper
alton with the various State depart
ments Of education and State agricul-
tural colleges, has prepared outline
courses for Ohio, Wisconsin Mary
land, Virginia, Arkansas, and North
Carolina, and has a similar course un-
der preparation for Oklahoma. The
aim of such courses is to assist in
presenting the subject matter to the
school pupils. They are used as
seasonal guides in connection with
bulletins and other material now
employed in teaching agriculture in
the elementary schools.
Each state manual CONCENTRATES a
two-year course in agricultural in
struction. In each case topics are in
tended to be seaaonal, permitting APP
pllcation and observational study; To-
cal, adapted to State and community
needs; and individual, encouraging
personal work. Home project work
is introduced wherever feasible, and
1t is suggested that the pupil carry
one plant and one animal project
each year.

FIRE VOIDfD BOX
CONTRACT SUPREME
COURT DECIDES
MANUFACTURERS DOES NOT
HAVE OBLIGATIONS OF BROK-
Err. DECISION OF INTEREST
TO LEAVENWORTH PEOPLE.

World: In decision last week
that has not yet been published, the
Superior Court of the Stat. in the
case of Leavenworth State Bank VS..
Wenatchee Valley Fruit Exchange
and Cashmere Apple Company decid-
ed that a manufacturers contract
containing a fire clause does not make
him liable to buy on the open market
to fill an order if his factory burns.
Judgment in tue sum of $4,000 was
rendered against the companies
named.
The original contract was made by
the Peshastln Lumber Company with
the two defendants in this suit. Short
ly after the contract was Irlwn and
after quantity Of boxes ha heen de-
livered under its terms, the mill
burned. Subsequo ntly the price of
boxes rose, and the Wenatchee Val
ley Fruit Exchange and the Cash
mere Apple Company had to pay
more for boxes on the open market
than they contro cted to pay to the
mill.
They therefore refused 70 pay for
the boxes delivered holding those
goods for damages. They declared
that they We're entitled to the differ
ence in price between what they had
to pay for all their boxes and what
they would have paid under contract.
JudgeWiliam Grimshaw in the Che
Ian County Superior Court held that
the bank was entitled for the boxes
delivered, but only in the amount of
the assignment that was made to
them by the mill. This was 85 per
cent. That is, the bank had paid 50
cents on the dolla, for the contract.
The plaintiffs filed a cross appeal
in the Supreme Court asking for 100
cents on the dollar. The higher court
gave them judgment for the full
amount.
Corbin & Easton repre- serted the
bank.
