Veterans Administration Mon
day reminded veterans taking CT
Bill institutional on-farm training
that reports of their 1949 earnings
are due at their VA regional Office
by March 1, 1850.
Failure to submit the reports be-
fore that deadline, VA warned,
may result in suspension of sub
sistence payments until such time
as the reports reach VA.
The earnings reports-covering
only income from productive labor
for the calendar year 1949-are
used by VA as the basis for ad-
justing each veterans subsistence
for the current year (1950).
The annual earnings report is
based upon farm accounting rec
ords kept by the veteran trainee as
part of his course of instruction.
In the case of a veteran operat-
ing a farm for himself under the
training program, income from
productive labor is computed by
deducting from his yearly net farm
income these two items: (1) the
interest on his capital investments
ana ~ an amount for unpaid fam
lily labor. He then adds an estimat-
ed value for items of family living
furnished by the farm.
Net farm income is derived from
the difference between inventories
at the beginning and end of the
year and from detailed account
of all receipts and expenditures in
connection with the veterans farm
business.
A veteran taking his training
from an employer-trainer reports
as compensation from productive
labor all wages received, whether
in cash or in kind.
Farm trainees received neces-
sary VA forms (Form No. 7-1922)
early this year.

farm records, both on the cows and
the farm business; rotation of the
permanent pasture; and an even
level of production the year round.
