Your Income Tax
Second In A Series OF Articles
from the Treasury Department
Form of Return.

Form of Return.
Persons subject to the Federal in
come tax must report their income to
the Government on forms, or blanks,
prescribed by regulations These
forms are obtainable from any Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue, and generally
from any bank. Special forms are des-
lgnated for corporations, for partner
ships, for trusts and tiduciaries, and
for nonresident aliens. Farmers who
keep no books of account on the ac-
crual method must attach a special
schedule to their return Form
1040F). For individuals, two forms
are used, depending upon the amount
and source Of income to be reported.
Form 1910. This form is intended
for general use Of individuals who are
citizens Of the United States, or res
idents in this country, whether citi-
zens or not. 1t contains spaces to show
the amount of income from various
sources, deductions allowable, exemp
tions and credits, and computation of
tax liability. AS most Of the items re-
quire some explanation in order to be
allowable, the form also contains ap-
propriate schedules to show in more
detail how the income or the deduc-
tions are determined.
Form 1040A. This is a simplified re-
port, which may, at the option of the
taxpayer who makes his return on
the cash basis, be filed instead of form
1910 by citizens and residents whose
gross income was $4,000 or less dur
ing 1912, provided all this income
consists wholly of one or more of the
following: salary, wages, dividends,
interest, or annuities. In using this
form it is necessary only to enter the
amount of gross income or shown,
deduct the credit allowable for Deepen
dents, and insert the appropriate
amount of tax in accordance with
ones personal exemption status, as
shown on the table on the reverse of
the form. This form has no entries for
deductions allowable, since the taxes
indicated in the table on the back Of
the form are computed after taking
into account what have been consid-
cred average deductions for persons
of this income class.

A taxpayer should, therefore, con-
slider carefully which form would be
appropriate for his purposes. Which
ever form is employed, all the infor-
nation called for in the spaces should
be inserted so far as applicable to the
taxpayer, in order to avoid the ex-
pense to the Government, and the pos
IDLE inconvenience to the taxpayer, of
subsequent check and inquiry.
With each return form is set Of
accompanying instructions, and these
instructions should be carefully read
by the taxpayer before making his re-
turn.
Returns for the calendar year 1912
must be filed not later than March
Is, 1913 They may be filed by mail
ing to the Collector Of Internal Reve-
nue. of the appropriate district in
which is located the legal residence or
principal place Of business of the tax
payer. If the return is filed by mail
ing, it should be posted in ample time
to reach the Collectors office on or
before March Is, 1913. Returns re-
ceived later than the due date are
subject to a penalty variable accord
ing to the lateness in filing.

PROBLEM
Young Men are Leaving Indus
try for Employment on
Farms in Area
Bluffton High School Employ
ment Bureau Lists Expert
enced Farm Helpers

Altho the farm labor shortage re-
mains critical, developments this week
indicated that there were some signs
of improvement.
Local industries report that there is
evidence of trend of young men
leaving to go back to the farm for
employment in an activity regarded
| by the government as prime essen
tial to the war effort.
Industry has taken more worker:
from the farms than selective service
and since added emphasis has beer
placed upon farming as essential to
the war effort there has been a move
ment from industry back to the farms.
No Blanket Deferment
Although there is no blanket de-
ferment of farm workers in this
state, draft boards have been instruct
ed to defer all workers considered es-
sential to farming operations in the
farm unit of the registrant.
Further indication of the easing of
farm labor shortages is the list of the
Bluffton High school employment bur-
eau. The Hi-Y club of the school is
sponsoring the employment service
which has the names of about &C
high school students available for var
ious types of work.
Quite few of the boys who listed
their names as available for summer
employment are experienced farm
workers. The students may be con
tacted through the high school office
for work on Saturday and after schoo
or for full time summer employment
As yet the new developments hav,
not made an important difference il
the farm labor problem but giv'
some indication of helping ease thu
situation.
