1t is both surprising and amusing
the various kinks put into the wet

eral Prohibition Commissioner Haynes
is that dandelions are not fruit. hence
cannot be legally used In the manu-
facture OF wine for family use.
Collector OF Internal Revenue Fer
guson says while Commissioner
Haynes rules what dandelion Is
not. he does not render a decision
on what a dandelion is--whether It
ranks as vegetable. flower or a
weed. Regardless Of it's anti-vol-
stead leanings. most anybody will
classify the dandelion for Mr.. Haynes

IMPORTANT CHANGES
 INCOME TAX LAW

1 ilies are allowed personal exemp- tion of $2.5O0 (instead of $2.000) unless the net income Is in excess of $5,000, in which case the personal exemption is only $2,000. The act provides that in no case shall the reduction of the personal exemption from $2,500 to 32.000 operate to increase the tax which would be payable if the exemption were $2,500 by more than the amount of the net income in excess of $5,000. This is to overcome the disparity in the case of two taxpayers. one Of whom is just within the lower $2,000 ex- emption and the other just within the higher $2,50o exemption.
 Single persons, and married per sons not living with husband or wife. are allowed an exemption of $1,000. Nonresident aliens are allowed a single personal exemption of $1,000. Persons having gross incomes for 1SZ1 OI SC,VVU UT OVcT are IC4uuo-A to make return, regardless of the amount of net income.
 Provision is made for the repeal as of Jan. 1, 1922, of the tax on stockholders of personal service corporation as such. After that date such corporations are to be tax ed in the same manner as other cor porations.
 "The income tax on corporations for the calendar year 1922 and thereafter is increased from 10 to 12h per cent. The $2,00O exemp- tion hereafter allowed corporations is to be granted only to those cor porations whose net income is s25,- 000 or less.
