Out of 33,800, UUOreturns on which the Revenue Service has ru na mathematical check, 750,570 errors were found. A year befor, 888,880 errors were found in the same number of re vurns. Discovery of the errors was worth $35,107,882 to the government That was the difference between the $44,146,660 of errors taxpayers made in their own favor and other a mounting to $11,038,774 in favor of the government which made rebates to the over-generous taxpayers.

Withdrawal From Korea The Defense Department an nounced in Washington recently that four American divisions in Korea are being withdrawn and sent elsewhere.

A Bit Of Humor Entering a lawyer's office in-, a small Tennessee town a buxom wife from the hills said: "I ain't a complainin' woman, Mr. Smith, but my husband ain't doin' ight. When one of our mules died, he hitched me upr with the other one to a plow." "Why, that's inhumans!" declared the lawyer. "Do you want a di vorce?" "Nope," she answered. "EBrt I want another mule. I've about mark ed that skinny old one to death! and he ought' to ham? a: rest " ' A young woman who nadf mar ried a rather tight-fisted younvrnan decided to deal with her hiaband's stinginess with tumor and sraoe. a resolution that was rudely -shaken when she observed the meager a mount of the ctseck he gawher for her first montfrx allowances "I'm eoftg to. have thi phed, dear' tenderly ttsniarked.

Doggett, soil conserve-, uonist lor the State College Ex tension Service, says fields- seeded only to alfalfa are vulnerable to erosion until the stand is well i tablished. Most farmers don't like terraces in their alfalfa fields be cause they interfere with mowing and raking. This means that strip cropping is about the only practical means left to prevent erosion?. . Washing rains do not come often in. the fall and winter, says Doggett. but just one ram can do m lot of damage. Therefore, it's best to plan those new alfalfa acres; well. Last fall many farmers saw then new .alfalfa fields; cut up by the drought-breking rains which left the ground rough for mowiiitg- and raking. Along with atrip cropping, othe soil-saving practices should be used, says Doggett Some of these are: "As a sort of memento of our marriage," the goom inquired..
