RICOTTA
Dear Almanack:

Dear Almanack.
In response 70 a request made
by reader, am sending you the
recipe for "ricotta" which is
much sweeter and tastier than
cottage cheese. Since / am OF
Italian descent, we make this
every week and consider 1t quite
delicacy. inasmuch as we use
il for a filling TO make ravioli,
which in these days Of meat
shortage would be something 10
consider as q very good substi-
tute. Ricotta is actually made
after making a batch Of cheese.
First Of all, the pan Of UNI
SKINNED milk is heated 10 luke
warm, then removed from fire

Q-Does the taxpayer have to
wait until after the war to get the
post war credit? A-No. He may
take it when he files his regular
income tax return for 1943-on
March Is, 1914. The amount of the
post war credit which may be
used that way will be based upon
the amounts OF his payments for
life insurance premiums, repay
ment of debts, and purchases OF
some types OF war bonds.
For example, If a married per-
sons victory tax amounted to 800,
he could reduce that liability by
40 per cent or by $40 If he had
paid out that much or more during
the year for life insurance, his
home mortgage, or for the pur-
chase OF war bonds. But II he
preferred. he could pay the full
amount of his victory tax and be-
come entitled to a credit OF $40
after the war.
Q-How' will a post war credit,
saved until the war ends, be paid?
Alt will be credited against any
taxes then due, and any balance
would be paid Immediately to the
taxpayer by the government.
Q-Does the taxpayer have to
file a separate return for the VIC
tory tax? A-No. it will be COM
puted on the regular income tax
return.
Q-How will an employe know
lust how much has been deducted
from his pay during the year for
victory tax purposes? A-His en-
ployer will give him a receipt on
a special internal revenue form
stating the amount withheld. The
employer will forward a similar
form TO the collector OF internal
revenue reporting the amount de.

ection-at.source basis. Their en-
ployers deduct the tax each pay
