MAP OF FIELD

lier Says in Letter

The map of the Kevin field re-
Gently issued by the U. S. Geolo-
gical Survey, which shows pro-
minent nose" or high" south
and west Of the present main
producing field is only a general
map and does not show the local
highs" and lows according
to letter from A. J. Collier of
the geological survey, to the
Northern Oil Information Bureau
at Shelby.
Publication of the map caused
considerable activity by leasers
in the vicinity of Aloe and two
test wells are now being drilled
on the structure, one by the Sun
burst and Rice-Fulton interests
and the. other by the Ohio Oil
company. These three firms con
troll large portion of the area
which is to be tested.
Mr.. Collier in his letter stated
that he prepared the general
map from data which he had
compiled during the few weeks
that he was in the field last
spring and that he did not have
time to work out the local highs
and lows. AS a result the map
shows only general snrface feat
ures. Very little subsurface in
formation is available because
the structure has not been drill
ed.on before and the Oil Inform /
tionBureau s bulletin asserts that
until oil in commercial quantities
has been found there is no rea.,-
on why this nose should COM
mand more attention than anol h.
er one, which runs from north to
from the Ohio camp.
which is shown on the same ma =.
Mr.. Collier made his first
study in the field, together with
w. w. Boyer, in the summer Of
1922. He returned in 1923 and
early in 1925 and combined data
obtained in these studies in his
map and report which was maae
public last month.

Elliott and PrOwdy
In Garage Business

w. j. Elliott and Lee Prowdy
will engage in the garage busi.
ness and this week have opened
up their establishment in the
quarters formerly used by the
Keyin Machine and Welding
Works, about a half block east
Of the Review office. 1t is the in
tention of the management to
add considerable improvements
to the building, it being reported
that about a hundred feet will
be built on. They will do a gen
eral garage business and carry a
full line of accessories. They
have installed a big tank and are
carrying the Continental gaso-
line. After the necessary inn
provements are made, it is more
than likely that this concern will
take the agency for some car.
Both Mr.. Elliott and Prowdy
are well and favorably known
here, which without a doubt, will
prove to their benefit. Mr.. Elliott
is one Of the well known drilling
contractors of Elliott and Callen-
der, while Mr.. Prowdy has been
by this firm for the
past year or so.

Editor RecuperateS at
Alhambra Hot Springs

The editor of the Review re-

spending the past two weeks at
that famous resort operated by
Mike Sullivan at Alhambra Hot
Springs. The editor is loud in his
praise for the way he feels after
his return, being thoroughly ov-
erhauled and refreshed by the
natural hot water. Mr.. Sullivan
is there to entertain you and he
claims that if any person has not
been dead over three days he
can bring them back to life if
they only drink plenty of warm
water and follow directions very
closely. But laying all jokes aside

Huge Investments Help Farmers
These hrge investment operations in
Wall Street are of significance to the
farmer. Much Of the $4,000, 100000
invested in farm mortgages was ad

York financial institutions is to send
money where it is most needed.
Another service rendered to agricul

of Farm Loan bonds, Joint Stock

of the intermediate Credit Banks.
There is a total of S1,451. .S00,0 600 of

securities as for cotton, corn, tobacco

If Wall Street Were Destroyed
Wall Street is the natural evolution
of the forces of trade and finance. 1t
exists because there is imperative
need for it in the nations business.
If some cataclysm should destroy the
financial district of New York we
would see frantic efforts to re-estab-
lsh it so that trade and industry
could continue If the production and
marketing of agricultural and indus
trial commodities did not need such
a financial institution, Wall Street
would not exist.
We depend upon the farmer to help
maintain the general level of pros
perity. Wall Street as a money mar
ket is called upon to finance the
growth and marketing of farm crops.
Many Wall Street bankers were born
and raised on farms. If they We're
not thoroughly familiar with agricul-
tural requirements, they could not
hold their present positions in the
financial world.
In the period of defation, Wall
Street suffered proportionately as
much as the farmer. The aggregate
losses OF Wall Street banks mounted
to a staggering sum. Wall Street is
rot an independent institution, but an
organic part of the counuy's business
system, necessarily rejecting the ups
and downs Of business.
Four Billion Dollars
An approximate estimate of the
main items in Wall Streets financial
operations in handling farm crops
shows that New York banks for the
purpose of agriculture put out com
merciAl loans to the value of one bill
lion dollars, hold bankers acceptances
for another billion buy commercial
paper such as cattle and sheep loans
for third billion and carry balances
of country banks for fourth billion
Thus Wall Street furnishes $4,000
600 900 river of credit annually to pro-
duce farm products and float them to
market.
The outward flow to rural banks
enables them to make the required
on farm crops and for ware
housing and handling cotton, tobacco,
wheat, raisins, prunes and countless
other products Outside of his own
personal efforts on his farm, Wall
Street is the biggest single factor in
the prosperity of the farmer. After
these commodities have been moved

them returns to Wall Street for in
vestment. New York is the largest
security market in the country and
offers a use and market for the idle
capital of the rural banks between
crops.

THE INCOME TAX
RULESBR0UCHT
OUT in NUTSHELL
Returns Must be Filed Before
March IS. Says Collector
c. A. Rasmussen


C. A. Rasmussen, Collector oi
Internal Revenue, makes the fol
lowing statement relative to the
provisions of the new Revenue
Act of 1926:
Income Tax in q Nutshell
WHO? Single persons who had
net income of 81, 800 or more
or gross income of $4,000 OF
more, and married couples who
had net income of $500 OF
more, or gross income Of S.
600 or more, must file returns.
WHEN? The filing period ends
March Is, 1926.
WHERE? Collector Of Internal
Revenue for the district in
which the person lives or has
his principal place of business.
WHAT? One and one-half per
cent normal tax on the first
$4,000 in excess of the person
al exemptions and credits.
Three per cent normal tax on
the next $4,000. Five per cent
normal tax on the balance of
net income. SurtaX on net in
come in excess of $1,000
All net income up to $4,000 is
idered earned net income. "
amount the taxpayer is
entitled to a credit Of 25 per cent
of the amount of the tax.
For the purpose of computing
this credit, in no case is the
earned net income considered to
be in excess of $4,000. Under
the Revenue Act of 1924 the
earned net income was consider
ed not to be in excess of $4,000.
The term earned net income :"
is defined as wages. salaries,
professional fees and ether am
cunts received for personal SER
vices actually rendered" !"
For example, a taxpayer un-
married and with no dependents,
whose net income for 1925 was
$1,000 would pay without this re-
duction tax Of $3.50. His act
ual tax is 1897. From his net in
come of 5000, he is allowed a,
personal exemption Of 81, 500; the
tax Of | u per cent on the re-
naming $1,000 is $3.50. One
fourth of this amount, or $13.13,
may be deducted.
In making out his income tax
for the year 1925 the business
man, professional man and far
mer is required to use Form 1040,
regardless of whether his net in
come was or was not in excess
of $4,000. The smaller Form,
l040-A is used for reporting in
come Of $4,000 or less, derived
chiefly from salaries or wages.
Forms have been sent to per-
sons who last year filed returns
of income. Failure to receive a
form, however, does not relieve
the taxpayer from his obligation
to file a return and pay the tax
within the time prescribed, on or
before March Is, 1926. Copies of |
the forms may be obtained from
officers of Collectors cf Internal
Revenue and branch offices. The
tax may be paid in full at the |
time of filing the return, or in
four equal instaIments, due on or
before March Is, June Is, Sep
tember Is and December Is.
Corporation return blanks will
be mailed week beginning March
first. Corporation tax rate for
year 1925, payable in 1926, is 13 I
per cent.
All corporations and partner
ships must file income tax re-
turns, regardless of the amount
Of their income and even though
they operated at a loss.

latest releases in the Craig Ken
nedy detective serial, The Radio

suddenly adopts most startlingly
modern methods to regain her hus-

family. Her husband seeks out
side diversion and her children call
her old fashioned. In desperation
she decides upon a complete trans
formation and in this comes the as

of domestic tribulations.

UNDISTURBED OVER
new COURT ACTION
Public Continues to Pour Money
In Despite Injunction

Philadelphia, Sept. 16 P9 -
Threats of the Chicago Coliseum
club to bring court action in Phila-
delphia to prevent the Dempsey
Tunney championship battle next
Thursday night, apparently were
forgotten here today by those in
terested in the bout.
The injunction obtained by the
Chicago club in Indianapolis to
stop the champion from meeting
Tunney, was said to have been
forwarded here by airplane, but it
has not arrived so far as could be
learned.
The general public continued to
pour its dollars for tickets for the
battle into the headquarters OF
Promoter Tex Richard, indicating,
Richard said, that the threatened
court proceedings were mot taken
seriously" Yesterdays sale exceed
ed $4,000, bringing the total cash
receipts to date to nearly S1,500,-
900.
Richard said he had been in
formed by Dempscy's attorneys in
Indianapolis that motion TO
quash the injunction was to be
made at once.
Il am not at all worried about
the outcome" said the promoter.
IF the injunction is sent into this
state the fight will go on anyway
and the worst that could happen
would be that Dempsey would be
fined 5000 for contempt of court.
l believe that after the Indiana
courts have another look at the
alleged contract they will find that
there is no ground for an injunc-
ton and it will be quashed.'
Richard said all arrangements
for handling the expected record
crowd for the fight were complete
with the exception Of the details
of police arrangements. The re-
fierce and judges will not be an
nounced until the night of the
bout.
