WHAT CAN BE PONE IN TICK-FREE TERRITORY i "Next to my family my Guernsey cattle mean moat to me," aaya K. A. Smith of Lynchburg, S. C., a meant 'convert to dairying in a section that not so long ago waa paying tribute to the cattle tick. This man's success with cow* is an excellent example of what can be accomplished in a few years. , Mr. Smith became interested in good cattle while on the farm of Robert Cooper, one of the beat known breeders ef Guernseys in the South. Five years ago he bought a farm on which he owed about $8,000. Three years ago he bought a few head of cows from Mr. Cooper; today he has a herd of 26 purebred* and 5 grades. All the cattle are paid for, and the in debtedneas on the farm has been re duced considerably. Last year he sold $1,070 worth of calves. His herd is free from tuberculosis and is on the Federal accredited list. This fanner was particularly fortu nate in starting out with very good stock; otherwise he had no advantage not possessed by any healthy, hard working farmer. "My success," he 'says, "is due to the attention I give to my cattle and to Mr. Cooper's co operation." He gets a regular income from milk and cream sold a$ retail, but a big part of his returns have come from-the sale of well-bred calves. ft i INCOME TAX REFUNDS Following: recent decisions in the Supreme Court of the United States in the cases of the Union Trust Com pany, et al, executors versus Wardell, Collector, and Shawb, Executor, ver sus Doyle, Collector, the statement was published that it would not be necessary for executors for estates to file claim for refunds to which they were entitled under such decisions. The existing regulations provide for the refunding of estate taxes only upon the filing of a claim therefor by the taxpayer. It will therefore be necessary fOr all taxpayers who are entitled to a refund of estate taxes by reason of the above entitled decisions te make formal claim therefor on Form 843 which claim ahould be filed with the collector for the district wherein the tax was paid for trans mittal to the office of the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue for ap propriate action. Section 3228, Revised Statutes, as amended by Section 1318 of the Rev enue Act of 1921 provides that all claims for the refunding or crediting of any internal revenue tax alleged to have been erroneously or illegally assessed or collected must be pre sented to the Commissioner of Inter pal Revenue within four years next after payment of such'tax. Conse quently estate taxes affected by the above decisions can only be refunded provided a claim therefor is filed -vi*h in four years next aftek the payment of such taxes. \ a TUNIS ITEMS Mrs. Sallie Roberty of Norfolk is ?pending a few days with her mother Mrs Emma Eure and brother, Mrs. Withey Eure.

C. November 14-15-16-17,1922 Now is the time to prepare something for the Fair this fall. It is a rather difficult thing to go out in the fields in the fall and find something worthy of being exhibited in the Fair. It will have a favorable effect upon your crops and live stock if you begin now to care for them as if they were already entered in competition at the fair. If a fair is worth having at all, it is justified only as it is an inducement to improve agricultural practices. With this thought in mind the commis sioners of Hertford County have appropriated $200.00 for general farm exhibits and Pig Club work. For your entertainment the best amusement concern to be had has been employed. All Together for the Biggest and Best Fair Yet. ? :. ? * *4 ^ - % '
