Working Child
May be Claimed
AS Dependent

The change in the 1854 internal
revenue code on dependents may
permit many taxpayers to claim
dependency exemption for a
child, not allowable in prior years.
If the parent furnishes more
than half the support of a child
under 10, or a full-time student,
the parent may claim the $500
exemption, ignoring the amount
of income the child may have.
c. I. Fox, district director of
Internal Revenue said: prior to
1854 no one earning 5000 or more
could be claimed as a dependent
by any other person. AS a re-
suit, many parents were careful
to have their children stop work
when the child's earnings neared
the 5000 mark. This is no longer
necessary; the child may be
claimed as an exemption, if the
parents meet the requirements"
In conclusion, Mr.. Fox en-
phasized that even though the
child is claimed as a dependent by
the parents, he must file his own
return if his earnings for the
year totalled $500 or more. Those
who earn less than $500 should
file a return in order to obtain
a refund of income tax withheld.

If you have boat and can get

Secure or store safely cabin baro-
meter or other movable objects.
Allow between five and seven feet

Silver Spring
Area Invaded
By Chiggers'

The Silver Spring area is re-
ported to be under attack by the
Eutombicula batatas. They are
minute red insects that belong
to the mite family and are COM
monty called chiggers.
Silver Spring is not the only
area of the state that is scratch
ing, for chiggers can be expected
most anywhere. The little red
insects are usually found in wood
lands, around streams or lakes
and in low, damp places where
vegetation is rank. Some species
are also in lawns, golf courses
and parks.
Scratching chigger bites doesn't
offer much relief. The best pre-
vention is to stay from them. If
you expect to be exposed to CHG
gers protective measures should
be taken. Among these measures
are control of chiggers in infest-
ed areas and the use of repel-
Tents.
If you are planning an outing
the area can be sprayed about
two days ahead with one of the
following = half a cup of 20 per-
cent emulsifiable lindane or two
cups of emulsifiable chlordane or
two cups of emulSifiable toxa-
phene in five gallons of water for
each 5000 square feet. Sprays
should be applied with a compress
sion sprayer. They will last from
four to eight weeks.
For mixers and outdoor men,
there are repellents that can be
applied to the clothing. One of
the best is dimethyl phthalate,
sold at most drug or sporting
goods stores. 1t is a liquid and
is applied by brushing a few
drops around the cuffs, waist.
band and neckline of clothing. 1t
is not applied to the skin, and
should not be applied to rayon.
If you're exposed to chiggers
a bath with plenty of soap and
water is the answer. And, the
bath should be taken as soon as
possible after exposure. Irrita
ton of chigger bites can be re
lieved with an antiseptic, which
can be bought at a drug store.
For more detailed information
on chiggers the Department OF
Agriculture has a leaflet, "Chig
gers - How to Fight Them
The leaflet is available for five
cents from the Superintendent Of
Documents, u. S. Government
Printing Office, Washington 25.
