BECAUSE OF CANNING The pl?ce of the hime anrt farm agents in the economy programs of the various counties is an important one because while on? help# to pro duce food economically, the other aids in conserving this food for fu ture QM "I have been highly gratified at the important place given home agents in the present campaign against hun ger in North Carolina," said Mrs. Jane S. McKimmon, state home dem onstration agent at State College, on her return from visiting several coun ters where she was at work with the homo agents." "Recently at New Bern, 460 women from five counties met una passed only one resolution which was to the effect that they lauded the stand for economy taken by county commissioners in the coun ties and felt that nothing was more important in such a program than to retain the services of both th? horn and the farm agents." County commissioners, public spirited citizens and others are buy ing cans, pressure cookers and seal ers to aid the home agant in promot ing efficient canning in the various counties, Mrs. McKimmon said. The home agents are training experienced leaders who are in turn aiding others. The welfare officers say that this canning program is reducing the charity bill. As an example of this, Mr. Mc Kimmon gives information secured from Curry Lopp, welfare officer in Davidson County, who told her that had it not been for the 90,000 cans of vegetables and fruits saved by the farm women of that county last sum mer and their willingness to share it with those in want, he hardly knows what would have happened in the county last winter. Mr. Lopp had to buy no canned food and the county was saved many dollars in conse quence. In Pamlico County not a dollar was spent for food by the county because of home demonstration work, said Mrs. McKimmon. LEGAL TRANSFERS R. L. Gash and wife to Ed Moore. Owen B. Vann Epp to Mr?.

Not So Much "We don't print any such stuff as that," said the editor, loftily, as he handed back the poem, "Well, you needn't be so haughty about it!" retorted the poet. "You're not the only one who won't print it." ESTATE TAXES OFF MORE THAN A HALF Jnljesritoace Tax Leas Than Half Anticipated? To Hamper State. Saieigh, July 14.? Estates of 040 ? citizens cf North Carolina contribut 'ed $482,545.27, with a slight addition for bad check penalties, to th? gener al fund o I the State during the fiscal year which closed June- 30, as com pared with 1130 estates contributing $1,006,068.70 the year before, and in heritance collections of $1,335,525.45 for the year 1929-30, -^?ures in th3 * office of A. J. Maxwell, efffiimissioner of revenue, show. The 1931-32 collections from the inheritance tax, less than half a mil lion dollars, were far below expecta tions, the estimate being $1,000,000. This tax is dependent upon deaths of -t residents with property, of course. " Ten of the 100 counties paid less than $100 and 18 counties, Alexander, Carteret, Cherokee, Chowan, Clay, Gates, Graham, Hoke, Jackson, Ma eon, Madison. McDowell, Mitchell, Robeson, Transylvania, Tyrrell, Wa tauga and Yancey, paid nothing. Burke, with only four deaths, pai<^? the largest amount, above $120, 000/^ while payments from Forsyth and Guilford, with Burke's account for almost half the entire amount. Their payments, with those of 10 other counties, Buncombc, Mecklenburg, Durham, Alamance, Cleveland, Row an, Union, Catawba, Iredell and Davidson, the 13 counties, paid two thirds of the total. Last year Durham ^nd Forsyth paid more than half the inheritance tax of that year, and with four other counties, Scotland, Stanly, Mecklen burg and Buncombe, paid more than two-thirds o? the $1,006,068.70 paid that year. In 1929-30, two years ago, Forsyth, Guiiford and Mecklenburg paid nearly one-half of the $1,385. 525.45 in inheritance taxes collected, while they and five others, Buncombe, Scotland, Union, Surry and Hender son, paid two-thirds of it. Transyl vania county had no estates which naid inheritance taxes for the year iust ended, nor for tl?e year before. For 1929 30 estates in this county paid $13.10 in inheritance taxes. Theae taxes are collected from one to three years after the death of the owngr of the estate. The tax is due at death, with a discount of 3 per cent if paid in six months, a charge of 6 per cent interest after one year and a penalty of 5 per cent if not paid in two years, but the commis sioner of revenue has authority to waive penalties if the estate is in litigation.
