Do you keep an exact-account of your income and expenses or do you regard your bank-book and check-book as the sole source of record? Does a balance of $500 at the end of the year mean that you have saved $500? Does a debt of $500 at the end of the year mean to you that you have lost $500 during that year? Just the opposite may be true of the above instances. A good system of ac- counts is the best way to be certain whether you are a success or failure, Do you know which farming opera. tion gives you the greatest return for your investment ? Do yo#t know how much you have made from corn, wheat, hay, hogs, cows “or any other item of your farm income ? These are a few of the ways a Farm Account Book will be a help to you, They may be obtained at the Farm Bureau office dt cost and we will be very glad to help you start an account book at any time through the year that you may need help, It is not safe to guess, How long would a bnsiness firm con tinue in business without a good ac- counting system ? A successful farmer of to-day must also be a good business man. April 1st is a good time to start, --County Agent. —— ————— Mule Sale To-morrow (Friday).

For years the farmers of Centre coun- ty have been co bplaining of socalled “sportsmen” who kill their chickens and turkeys during” the hunting season, but if the bill passes the state legislature in. troduced by Senator H. W. Schwartz, of Lebigh county, these outlaws will have something to account for hereafter.

Convic- tions must be reported to the state game commission for revocation of license. A SA ———— Income Tax Facts You Ought to Know. a Births, deaths and marriages during the year 1920 affect materially income tax returns for the year, Millions of babies were added to fami. ly circles, each of whom brings an ex. emption of $200 in the parents’ income tax return. Widow and widowers who lost hus. bands or wives during the year are es- pecially affected. They are single for the purposes of thé income tax law and are granted only aa exemption of $1000, unless the head of a family. Persons who were divorced or separat. ed by mutual agreement during the year also must consider themselves as single persons, The status of the taxpayer on Decem. ber 31, 1920, determines the amount of the exemptions. If on that day the taxpayer was married - and living with husband or wile, claim may be made for the $2,000 exemption, If single, or married and not living with wife or hus. band on December only $1,000. : Persons who reached majority daring] the yeag and whose earnings for that | period amounted to $1,000 or more, ace cording to their marital status, must file A return and pay 4 tax on their net in- come in excess of those amounts, = To avoid penalty, in the hands of the Collector of Internal Reyantie fof the district, i Wilh the taxpayer lives, or bas his acipal place of business, — mio frig fright § i when — 1921 BORO SCHOOL REPORT. — Statistical Report and Honor Roll for Fifth Month.
