State Ranks Second
In Yam Production
North Carolina this year will pro
duce more sweet potatoes than any
other state in the Nation, except
Georgia, the Statistics division of the
N. (Department of Agriculture re
ports. . ,
Statistician Clyde Willis estimated
this State would produce' 9,200,000
bushels of yams this season, as
against Georgia's 9,976,000 bushels.
The North Carolina figure is the
highest of any season with the ex
ception of . 1934, when 9,984,000
bushels were grown. In 1943, the
crop totaled 7,760,000 bushels.
"Prospective sweets yields for this
year's crop are expected to average
115 bushels to the acre, 18 bushels
more than the 97-ibushel yield of last
year and 27 bushels more than the
anticipated Georgia yield," said
Willis.
In the 10 years from 1933 to 1942,
average production was 8,362,000
bushels, with the yield at 100 bush
els to the acre.
John A. Winfield, market news
man, said he had received informa
tion from the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics that prices to be paid
farmers 'for sweet potatoes are ex
pected to average lower this winter
season than the high prices realized
during the 1943-44 winter. This de
crease in price was attributed by
BAE to larger crops in some of the
important shipping states, including
Virginia, Maryland and New Jersey.

Joseph D. Nunan, Jr., Commission
er of Internal Revenue, today re
minded individual income taxpayers
that Congress has changed from De
cember 15, 1944, to January 15, 1945,
the final date for filing Declarations
of Estimated Income Tax, either
original (as in the case of farmers),
or amended, and paying of install
ments of estimated tax for the calen
dar year 1944.
Among the taxpayers affected by
this change in dates are: farmers
who exercised their right to defer
filing declarations last April 15;
others who have already filed 1944
declarations but desire to change
their estimates by filing amended
declarations; all persons who owe the
final installment of 1944 estimated
tax.
If a taxpayer who would other
wise be required to file an original
or amended Declaration of Estimated
Tax by January 15, 1945, files his
annual income tax return for 1944
(on Form 1040) and pays all tax
uue by January 15, his return will
serve as both a return and declara
tion and he need not file the 1944
declaration.
.Also, if a taxpayer files h'is final
1944 return (on Form 1040) and
pays the tax due on it by January
15, he need not pay the final install
ment which otherwise would be due
on his estimated tax.
A bill from the Collector for the
final installment of 1944 estimated
tax may be ignored by a taxpayer
who files his annual return ' (on
Form 1040) and pays the tax due
on it by January 15..
These changes will enable a tax
payer, if he' desires to do so, to wind
up all of his 1944 income tax obliga
tions by January 15, but it does not
affect the filing of his 1945 declara
tion which will be due Itfarch 15.
Also, taxpayers who do not file their
final 1944 returns by January 15
must do so by March -15.
