INCOME TAX FACTS.

The new requirement Of the income
tax law that returns shall be made OF
gross income Of $4,000 or more re-
gardless of the amount Of net income
upon which the tax Is assessed, ne
cessitates careful computation on the
part of the taxpayer. "Gross IN
come" includes practically every dol
lar received by the taxpayer during
the year 1921 In salaries, wages,
commissions, rents, royalties, inter-
est on bank deposits cash dividends
on stock, or "income from any source
whatsoever" "Net income" is gross
income less certain deductions pro-
vided for by the act, including all
tbusinesss expenses incurred in the
conduct OF a business, trade, pro-
fession, or vocation.
Certain expenditures, however, are
not deductib1e as business expense
when made for the purchase OF
articles more or less permanent In
character, or for permanent improve
ment Of property. For example,
merchant would not be allowed to
deduct the amount expended in the
erection Of a. new store, or farmer
| the cost of a new tractor or thresh-
| ing machine, since such investments
|are held to be capital Investments.
The law expressly prohibits the de-
duction Of family or living expenses,
such as rent for dwelling, repairs
to dwelling, cost of food and cloth
ing for the family, education OF ehild-
ren, servants wages, and similar
Items. Amounts spent during the
year 1921 for any Of these items are
/ NOT, deductible,

EXTERMINATE
ANTS Is ON

The campaign of ant extermina-
tion put on by the Women's Progress
+sive Union of Covington commenced
yesterday. A house to house cam
vass is being made. The Argentine
ant was introduced in this country
by the Government to destroy the
pupa Of plant enemies, but it is found
that the ant is as great a nuisance as
the enemies it was supposed to de-
stroy. Trees, plants and houses are
overrun by them and they are dis
ease spreaders besides. The ques-
tion now is how to get rid of them.
The Government has discovered a
preparation for destroying them and
it is being furnished at cost. II
everybody unites in this work Of ex-
termination it will save thousands Of
dollars to CovingtOn and will be a
great relief to the housewife who is
now tormented by them.
When some member of the COM
inittee call on you, go look in your
sugar bowl or your molas% es jug Or
the preserves that you inadvertently
left uncovered, and then look at the
blooms of some of your favorite
plants hand out little change
to buy the remedy for this nuisance.
The movement is endorsed by the
Board of Health. These ants are
really dangerous things to have
around. Perhaps you have even had
them get into the baby's crib. Many
have. Spend a little money for baby's
comfort, as well as your own.

that the chairman Of this board, Mr..

We have now, unfinished, a part of
one of the most important highways

plans for bridges or something of
that nature, and there has been so
much red tape in the whole proceed.
ings, that it is stated Mr.. Buie in
tends to do without the Government
aid and go ahead and finish the work
by the State.
The people of ST. Tammany parish
will appreciate this interest taken by
the Commission This Hammond
connection is very much needed and
any action that. hastens its compile
tion will be welcome.
1t is understood that Mr.. Peter
man, Mr.. Buie and Mr.. Taylor will
be here either Wednesday of Thurs
day to take the matter up. With the
settlement Of this matter We will be
able to go to work on the Columbia
and Franklinton roads and decide
just what we will be able to do. II
there is not enough money to build
the Columbia road (Which includes
the Military road) then a tax should
be voted for this purpose.
The visit here of the Commission
will be an important matter, at all
events, as we may learn something of
the general idea of r ad building
and extension. They will be very
welcome.
