Know Your Social Security

lngs from Self-employment. In
computing the net earnings from
self-employment for social sec
urity purposes, income not relat-
ed to self-employment such as
rental income, other investment
income and capital gains, is ex-
cluded, although such income
must be considered for income
tax purposes.
Before the time for filing the
annual income tax report rolls
around after the close of the year
1855, self-employed farmers
should get a social security ac-
count number if they don't
already have one. This number
must be on the return in order
to get social security credit. An
application for q social security
number or duplicate of an old
number card if one has been
lost may be obtained from the
local postmaster or from the
nearest social security district

IN MEMORY

In precious memory of my
faithful husband, Phillip Wes-
sley Polling, who was called from
our family circle five years ago,
Nov. z, 1850.
Dear Dad as we sit and ponder
Of happy days gone by
Each precious memory of you
Bring tears into our eyes.
Skies are so dark and somber,
Beclouded with grief and
despair,
Since you have left us here
For the yonder realms SO fair.
We often look back with
memories
Along the road we've trod;
We bless the years we spent
with you,
We leave the rest to God.
We miss, on earth, your
presence,
Your voice and welcome smile;
We trust that heavens much
richer
And we'll meet you after
while.
Gone where no storms can
hurt you
Gone to live with the blessed,
Your hands are folded on your
breast
Gone to an everlasting rest.
Over there's a golden Mansion
Far above the Heavens bright
There's your crown of radiant
glory,
There's your robe of spotless
white.
Joy after sorrow, peace after
pain,
Home after wondering, sun
after rain,
Mite after darkness, gain after
loss,
Strength after suffering, crown
after Cross.
Sadly missed by:
His Wife, Betsy Polling
Sons: Raymond and Willard
Daughters: Clara and Mary.

my Social Security credit"
Farmers all over the Nation have
been asking this question in the
more than 500 social security dis
trict offices which provide local
service to the public.
Basic procedures which farm
ers will use are already well
established and in use by the
city businessman. In the 20 years
since the Social Security Act
was passed by Congress, wage
and salary earners, and since
1850, many city self-employed
have become well aware of their
responsibilities as full partici-
pants in the social security pro-
gram. Seldom does a wage earn
er turn up for his first day on
a new job without his social
security card in readiness; and
rarely does self-employed city
businessman fail to make the
quarterly reports for his en-
ployees and his own annual
| self-employment return in pro-
per form for credit on the social
security books.
The smooth functioning of
these reporting processes has
enabled the Social Security Ad-
| ministration to record the earn
ings of millions of Americans
with amazing accuracy. These
records, kept in the accounting
division of the Bureau of Old
| Age and Survivors Insurance in
Baltimore, Maryland, form the
basis of payment of benefits
when an insured person retires
or dies. Almost million bene-
ficiarics now receive monthly
payments. Over 100 thousand
persons are being added to the
benefit rolls every month. Tho

If a self-employcd farmer has
net earnings of $400 or more il
1855, he must file a social sec
urity tax report as part of hi'
| income tax return for 1855. He
must pay a 3 percent social sec
urity tax on his net Self-CmplOy
mcnt income. Earnings above
| $4,000 are not taxed. The farmer
will use the same tax form fo
! figuring his net income for boil
social security and income TAI
purposes; however, there ar,
certain optional methods of fig
uring the net earnings which
apply only TO social security
taxes for farmers. If the Ia!
rcport is made on Il cash baSi
and if the gross income is Sl80I
or less. the tax can be paid Oi
either the actual net croft o
one-haIf Of the gross income pro
| vided this gives him a net in
come from Sclf-employment of a
much as $i00. If the farm groS
income is over $500 the net pro
fit must always be figured. How
ever, if the actual net is undo
5000 a farmer who is on a casI
basis may, if he chooses, rCpor
and pay the tax on 5000 if hi
gross farm income is over $1,000
This feature Of the law will en-
able a farmer to have protection

in which high expenses or othc
adverse conditions have wipe

These are the only instance
in which farmer may pay Socia
