DENVER, Colo. March f5.-Tom
Mcclure. local income tax specialist,
in an answer and cross complaint
5ust filed in the district court denied
the charge made by the L. U. Sheep
company of Thermopolis. Wyo., that
he turned over the books OF the
sheep company. which he was audit
ing. TO II. T. McCauley. internal reve-
nue. officer IN charge. and that Mr..
McCauley's inspection OF the books
resulted IN n charge OF $3.50. 900 addi-
tional income tax, covering several
years. being made on the
McGuire's answer sets forth that
this charge was deliberately and
falsely made by the L. L. Sheep COM
pany. for the sole md express pur-
pose OF bringing Tom Mcclure &
Company into ~disrepute. and making
It appear 10 the public that Tom Nc
CURE & Company was not loyal to
its clients"
The nsw further sets forth that
MCGUIRE refused to turn the books
over to the internal revenue officer.
and the sheep company gave him n
written order to permit the inspec-
ton Of the books by tho Internal
revenue officer. and that he complied
with his request.
According to Mcclure, an agree
ment was entered into between him
self and the sheep company in which
he was to receive 500 n day for
auditing the books and determining
whether or not the company actually
owed an additional 81 900 income tax
which the government claimed.
When he discovered that the add
tioual income tax would DO many
times the $4,000 claimed, Mcguire
said hat an agreement was entered
into by which he was TO receive S25.-
900 for a complete audit for several
years back. IND for a definite finding
as to just what the unpaid income
tax really was.
After working on the books from
March II. 1929. to April 26. 1929. Will
liam L. Simpson, attorney for the
sheep company notified Mcclure to
stop work on the books and hat the
alleged contract for the payment OF
s25, 900 had been turned down by the
company.
The attorney requested the return
OF the books, which was denied by
Mcclure. for tho reason, II was said.
that he had a lien against the books
for the work he had performed.
MCGUIRE says that $3.50 was paid
on account. and the cross complaint
states that tho books viii be held
until the additional sum Of ss.7s6.4s
IS paid for the work which no says,
was actually performed.

MODERN FARM MACHINERY
(Prof. George E. Simmons, Department
of Agronomy, L. of Nd

The Introduction of machinery has
multiplied the efforts of man and in
creased it many fold Without the
present day development of ma
chlnery it would be impossible to
feed the population of the world and
Keep 1t in the high state of civiliz-
alton that it has achieved.
a In 1897 about 81 per cent. of the
population of the United States lived
IN the rural districts At present
only about one-third live on the
farms. These now with the aid of
machinery live better and still feed
the whole people. Since then women
have ceased to labor in the fields.
children have been placed in Schools.
wages have increased, production has
increased and the cost of production
has been lowered
The first cast-iron pillow was made
in 1895 and the first steel plow in
1888. 1t turned only one furrow:
now tractor will turn from two to
ten burrows and requires but one
man to do the work
Previous to the Civil war one man
with one horse did the cultivation for
crops; then the two-horse machines
were invented, thus saving the time
or one man, and in recent years ma
chimes were so arranged as to allow
one man by using three horses to do
the work formerly done by three
men, doing it more easily and doing
it better
The thirteenth annual report of the
Department of Labor states that the
amount of labor necessary to produce
one bushel of wheat by hand was
three hours and three minutes, and
now it takes but about ten minutes
when modern machinery is called
into service
The United States Year Book for
1899 stated that formerly it required
eleven hours to cut and cure one ton
of hay; now it would take one hour
and thirty-nine minutes
The introduction of the ensilage
cutter has had a very great influence
on the saving of man-labor, but by
it's use has revolutionized the bust
ness of cattle feeding by making the
modern silo a possibility. 1t would
be hard to measure its value in terms
of money.
The more recent introduction of
| power machinery has not only made
1t possible to save labor for the man,
but it has increased the efficiency of
other machinery and provided means
for getting the work done in a more
seasonable time.
| Depreciation is measured by
length of service. 1t is calculated on
the cost of repairs and cost of re-
placement, and is distributed as a per
acre cost and charged to each crop
on which it is used

Dresses in Spanish StvIe

In his distinguishing black on the
forehead and yellow on the throat,
the Northern yellow-throat is one of

member of his tribe and gives an APP
pearance of Spanish grandeur, says
the American Forestry association, of
Washington, which is carrying on the
nationwide campaign for bird-house
building and arousing the intense in
terest of school children in this
phase of outdoor life
There is no mistaking the song of
this bird, and it is rendered in a va
riety of ways which make it sound
like any one of the following:
'Whichis-it? Which-is-it ~ or
"What-a-pity what-a-pity; or
"Which-way-sir? Which-way -sir?"
or 'I-beseech-you, I-beseech-you;"
or "Witchery, witchery, witchery. :"
The bird is particularly fond of
thickets by the side of running
water.
