The l*ilot Is presenting a s«-ries of brief, informative articles con- concerning income taxein. The arti cles contain authoritalive int»r- niation, direct frnm the Rureait of Int4>rnal Keveniie, X\ S. Treas. ury I)ep»j-tnient. ARTICLE THREK The Revenue Act of 1941 provide.s a simplified method of computing in. come tax in the case of individuals whose gross income is derived wholly from salary, wages or other conipen. sation for personal services, dividends, interest, rent, annuitie.**, or royalties, and does not xeceed $3,000. A new Form 1040A has been provided for taxpayers who are entitled to and elect to use such method, A table on the reverse side of this Form thows the amount of tax on increasing amounts of gross income after the j proper allowance of $400 for each de- pendent, if any. I The tax under the simplified meth- I od is the same for each $25.00 block : of groiis income and the taxpayer I need only ascertain in which block I his gross income (less allowance for ' dependents) falls to determine his I tax. A flat reduction of 10 percent] ' has been made in arriving at the I amount of tax shown in the table fori ! deductions such as charitable con-1 I tributions and taxes paid, so that thej ' taxpayer who uses this method does 1 not list these but gets an automatic I deduction ol' 10 percent. ' Under the simplified method the I status of a person on the last day of I the taxable year is the governing fac. tor in determining the exemption lev, el ($750 for single persons and mar, ried persons not living with luisband or wife, and $1,500 for married per sons living together) as well as the credit for dependents. A husband and wife living togeth er on the last day of the taxable year may file separate returns on Form 1040A if the gross income of each is from the prescribed .sources and does not exceed $3,000, or they may file a single joint return on that Form if their combined income is from the prescribed sources and does not exceel $3,000. The use of the simplified method is optional with the taxpayer but once an election hfts been made for any ] year, it is irrevocable for that year, if a taxpayer files a return under the simplified method for the taxable I year he may not thereafter file a re. i turn under the general proVistons of ' the law for that year. Conversely, if i he files a return under the general piovisions for any taxable year, he may not thereafter file a return un- .der the simplified method for that : year. However, a new election is al. ' lowed for each succeeding taxable year, MBK.XKY TKUSTEKS TO MEET A special meeting of the Board of !

Uncle Sam. \A/'ams tHe P^armers of /^mei'ica! We have a very ^rood supply of parts for McCormick- Deeringf Tractors. We urgre you to have necessary re- DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Office of Secretary Washington, D. C. October 23, 1941, REPAIR YOUR FARM MACHINERY NOW A Message to the Faimers of America! The year of 1942 will be a critical one for farmers. Prepare for it by repairing your faim machinery now. The Food for Freedom program calls for a record farm prc». duction. At the same time defense needs will limit available farm labor. Farmers who are unable to get enough labor will have to rely more and more upon machin. ery, but the defense program will mean much le.ss new farm machinery in 1942. New farm machinery requires steel and other metals, and metals are a prime need in the defense program. You can help your country and yourself by repairing your old machinery now rather than attempting to get new machinery next year. K(‘pair your farm machinery and equipment now. The Government is taking steps to provide as much «teel and other metal as may be needed for all necessary repairs for farm machinery in 1942. To be sure of a supply of necessary repair parts, manufacturers need to know how much will be required. The only way to be sure of repair parts is to order them immediately. Failure to make repairs now may mean a crop loss later. I suggest you do these things at once; Check over your old machinery. Order necessary parts from your dealer. If parts cannot be obtained, notify your County U, S, D. A. Defense Board. As replacement needs arise throughout the year use substitutes for steel and iron wherever possible. In many areas, county agents and vocational agricultural teachers are arranging for instruction in farm machinery repair. You may wish to take advantage of such instruction or to have others in your family do so. Make your old farm machinery and equipment do another year by repairing it now. Claude R. Wickard Secretary. Members of the Moore County Farm Committee, has assumed the duties of a U. S. D. A. Defense Board, are: A B. Parker, Vass, N. C. Worth E. Brov>n, ,\lMT(leen, N. C. Joe A. Caddell, Carthage, N. C. pairs made N 0 W while these parts are still avail able and before our me chanics are over - loaded with repair work. We are equipped to do welding. New' machinery will be very scarce and hard to get this year. Why not place your order now for either a new tractor or a recondi tioned one in perfect shape. We have some of these ma chines in stock at present. Check all your machinery and order necessary repair parts or new' equipment.
