Social Security is a federal sponsored program offering insur ance to workers and their depend ents against complete loss of in come due either to the death or re tirement of the worker. Payments or benefits are generally based upon the period of service and taxable in com during the service -period. ' Self-employment taxes for Social ISecurity purposes and Federal ln- t - LLJ A IK. tent that both are collected by tne Internal Revenue Service at the same time. Also the same account ing methods and records must serve an the basis of the two types ot tax es. Self - employment taxes differ from Federal income taxes in that they go into the Old-Age ana sur vivor's Insurance Fund from which Social Security benefits are paid rather than into the general funds of the U. S. Treasury. '. Some self-employed fanners may owe no income tax due to the size of deductions and personal exemp tions but still must complete Sche- dule F, Form 100 to determine earnings from self-employment for Social Security tax purposes. Sche dule F is arranged so that the com putation of self-employment tax from farming will follow as the form is filled in. ' In calculating self - employment earnings from farming, the individ ual farmer may have to make some adjustments in the figure upon which Federal income taxes are bas ed. The exclusions in determining net earnings from self-employment include any income and expenses as sociated with (1) rentals in the form of crop shares, which are con sidered as an investment return to the landlord rather than self-em. ployment income; (2) gains or losses from the sale of capital assets and depreciable property such as sales ot livestock held for draft, breeding, or dairy purposes or sales of ma chinery and real estate; and (3) deductions for net operating losses of other years. : - Farmers are to pay Social Secur ity tax if they had earnings of $400 or mora from self-employment In 1955. The maximum covered earn ings from all sources are $4200. Therefore the maximum income subiect to the S per cent self-em. ployment tax is $4200 minus the amount of covered wages received aa an emDlovee. Farmers reporting their income on the "cash" basis may wish to um an notional method to stabilize their coverage from year-to-year. If the gross income from farming (with adjustments as mentioned a- bove) is between ww ana iibuu, tne aelf-emnloved farmer may pay so cial security taxes on one half of this gross amount. If the gross in come from farming (with adjust ments) ft more than $1800. and the commited net earnings from self- employment from farming are less than $900. Social Security taxes may be paid on $900.'' ' . i JJetaila of social seeurny coverage and computation i of the ta are ex- nlnlnoH In h nnmnhlptm.

I Tips on Touring I J gOY SCOUTS OP AMERICA FEBRUARY 6 TO 12 WE ARE DUPLIN COUNTY HEADQUARTERS FOR "" BOY SCOUT UNIFORMS Collins 'IN WALLACE " ' By Carol lat Ii Women's Travel Authority ' : Fashion trend fluctuate (Re member the "long: look" of the ' '40sT), and so does the world of travel. Vacation-wise the trend has followed fashion to a shorter, more casual type. Here's the story, as reported by experts who keep tabs on travel statistics. . : According to recent surveys by the AAA and the University, of Miami's Bu reau of Business and Economic Research, mo torists who tended to take lone trips in tho first flush of postwar travel now prefer shorter tours. Eighty per cent of the requests for travel in ' formation received by the AAA 'concern trips of one day or less. The University of Miami research bureau reports that more than half ' of a "sample" of 100,000 visitors who wore questioned in an attempt to analyze vacation habits piannea to stay in Miami from 4 to 1!J days. The average visit was 7 days. Three big reasons for the boom in little vacations : better carD, bet ter roads, more people able lo take week-end trips in addition to regu lar annual holidays. A favorite prescription for a short holiday which I originated a numbsr of years ago is-what I call a "Tonrette." A Tourette is a two day, budgeted, planned vacation in . miniature. Here's how to plan it. ! On a road map, draw a circle 200 miles in radius around your home town. (You'll be surprised to find how little ofitha area you've seen.) ' Decide where you want to go and ! what you want to see. Then pick - your week-end and go. ' By limiting your outbound trip i to 200 miles, you'll have time to sihtsee, lunch and settle comfort ' ably for the night.' Next day, go home by a different route and (. seo more of the area so close to home. ' , ' '' ; ' i Tourette provide education and - recreation' for tha entire family.
