Important Notice to In-
come Taxpayers.

proved October 3,1913, every in-
diyiduai having an annual ini-
come in excess of $3000 is re-
quired to render to the Collector
of Internal Revenue on or before

March 1st of each year a report
giving a statement of ; his income
received from all sources during
the calendar year ; preceding.
Failure to file this annual return
within the time prescribed sub-
jects the offender to severe pen-
alties, and all individuals having
an annual income subject to tax-
ation under this law should im-
mediately notify A. 3- Walker,
Collector of Intern^ Revenue,
Austin, Texas, giving their name
and address and the nature of
the business in which they are
engaged, in order- that they may
be supplied with form of return,
rdlings and necessary instruc-
tions.
The Collector has? a list of all
corporations subject to this taxj
4nd they will be supplied with
blank forms for report as soon as
possible after December 31st.
The attention of corporations is
directed to the fact that the cor-
poration tax act of 1909, under
which they have been making
annual reports to the Internal
Revenue Department, has been
repealed and is superseded by
the Income Tax Law. However,
the manner and time of rendition
and payment of tax are prac-
tically the same as under the old
law. Partnerships are not re-
quired to render returns, but the
members composing the firm, it
they have an income subject to
tax, are required to render re-
turn and therein account for all
income or profits arising from the
partnership.
Special attention is called to
the fact that failure to secure in-
come tax blanks will not relieve
the taxpayer from the penalties
imposed for delinquency in filing
return. The report for the year
1913 may be filed at any time be-
tween January 1 and March 1,
1914. Assessments will be made
as soon as possible after the re-
turns are filed with the collector,
and the tax assessed is due and
payable June 30, 1914.
Woodpeckers Running
Hogs to Death.
Center, Tex., Dec. 31.—Wood-
peckers on the farm of Allen
Martin, near here, are running
the hogs to death. They are not
actually chasing the animals, but
Martin’s fears are well based.
Several months ago the farmer
had a bad case of bronchitis and
could hardly talk above a whis-
per. It was necessary for him to
call the hogs to feed and he
finally began to rap upon the
fence with a stick to attract
their attention.
The hogs got use to this and
responded with alacrity. Now,
however, the woodpeckers are
numerous and their continual
hammering attracts them pel
mell from one tree to another,
where, of course, they are
doomed to disappointment. Mar-
tin has kept his hogs in pens
part of the time but when run-
ning loose the birds keep them
going and losing weight.

Nothing gladdens my heart
more than to be brought face to
face with a well cooked, well
seasoned turkey gobbler on a
glad Christmas day. I love to
gaze upon his voiceless and pulse-
less remains and carve great
slices of white meat from his
breast. I love to steal into the
kitchen between meals when my
wife is not watching me and grab
a handful of stuffing out of thp
bosom of said turkey and dash
out to our cow shed and there,
far from the “maddening
crowd,” eat that- turkey
molested.
But the turkey business like
everything else can be overdone.
I know when I have all of it I
need without anyone telling me
Dut my wife seems to think
haven’t got sense enough to
know when I am up on turkey
that’s why I am writing this
tale of woe out in the barn. Just
as long as a turkey stays in his
proper place I am his admirer,
ardent supporter and defender
but when he enters my house
and tries to dictate my affairs
and appetite and force me into
eating hash against my liberty-
loving will then I will resent it
with every drop of blood in my
patriotic veins.
It has been two long weary
weeks since we killed that birc
and no man was happier than
for the first four days
graced our humble board; but
when it made a lightning change
from a well baked turkey with
cranberry sauce attachments to
a five gallon pot of hash, and de-
manded me to eat hash or starve
I rebelled. My wife says that
the hash is the best part of a tur-
key and that she does not pro-
pose to cook any other kind of
meat until this hash is eaten.
Now I don’t like to oppose my
wife or cross her in any way as I
mve always thought it best not
to, but to save my life I can’t
eat another mouthful of that
hash. I turp, pale every time I
come into the presence of that
conglomerated mess of male tur-
xey, and even the gobbling of a
turkey turns my stomach. If
were not afraid of rhy wife I
would rise up this very moment,
dash into our dining room, and
seize that hash pot by its neck
and yell at the top of my voice,
“sic semper tyrannus,” and rush
forth to our pen and feed it to
our hog, even though it killed
the hog.
If I have any friend in Temple
man or woman—who is inter-
ested in my welfare and would
like for me to retain my well
merited grip that I now hold on
society he or she had better come
at once and trade my wife out of
that hash, for if the matter is
deferred just a few days longer
it may be everlastingly too late,
as my mind is fast giving away
under the strain and I am be-
The Old
and the New
The people were kind to me during
1913. They were liberal in their
patronage and they were kind
enough to tell me I gave them sat-
isfactory service and the full worth
of their money. I appreciate the
patronage and the kind words high-
ly. I did my best for my patrons
and they did a noble part by me.
A new year has come. I am going
to do my best to render even better
service than last year. All may rest
assured that I will leave nothing
undone to serve them well. I shall
endeavor to keep the best goods,
the prices will be the lowest that
can be made, and promptness with
all orders shall be my motto.
Gratefully yours,

tree and began to curse me in
five different languages, and
called me a liar, thief, coward,
anarchist, and accused me of
drinking peruna. After hurling
all the above epithets at me, it
proceeded to unbutton its breast
that it and then reached one of his feet
on the inside of its bosom and be-
gan peltingjme with hash, from
the soles of my feet to the tip of
my no£e. I could feel, smell and
taste the hash just as plainly as
if it had been real. I felt it ev-
ery time it spattered on my nose,
eyes and mouth, and I thought
that awful gobbler stood there
and dug hash out of his stomach
until I could see the sun through
his ribs and after it had thrown
all of its hash at me it nroceeded

and legs at me in a most violent
manner.
As I said in the beginning, I
am the turkey’s friend as long as
he performs his proper functions,
but when he tries to disguise his
identity and begins masquerad-
ing under a non-de-plume, with
the scent of onion, garlic and
cabbage on his breath, then I
cut his acquaintance.

COTTON SEED
ginning to gobble in my sleep. I
never expect to darken our
kitchen door as long as that
hydra-headed compound called
hash holds the boards at the
Sappington table. I have given
my wife fair warning in the mat-
ter and if I should, ever catch my
death of cold while staying out
here at our barn with no one to
cheer me but our milk cow, then
my blood will be upor ^er hands.
I had an awful dream1 ogjei night
out here in the loft of n,
which was doubtless causes V
my brooding over that denied
job of hash., I dreamed that I
was being pursued by a phantom
gobbler that stood about 16 feet
high in his sock feet, had a steel
bill and two cross cut saws for
teeth. I thought this terrible
ghost gobbler Was armed with a
pitch fork and scythe blade and
was chasing me over hills,
gullies, briars and barbed wire
fences, and I thought to escape
him I finally climbed to the top
of a tall tree. The phantom gob-
bler sat down on a log near the
