Mr. J. E. Pierson of Fannin
County, a representative of the
Texas Farm Bureau, addressed
about seventy farmers at Wood-
man hall Saturday afternoon, ex-
plaining the benefits of farmers
pooling their wheat. He said
this had to be done before the
Farm Bureau could make con-
tracts to deliver a certain kind
and quantity of wheat at a certain
time—the wheat had to be avail-
able. And pooling made it avail-
able.
It is proposed to pool a million
bushels of this year’s crop in or-
der to affect the price, and Mr.
Pierson says there’s no question
as to pooling that much. He ex-
plained the matter throughly and
will give the farmers until next
Saturday to think the matter
over, when he will again be
present at the Woodman hall at
2 o’clock for the purpose of
having farmers to sign up as
members of the Farm Bureau or
to pool their wheat or cotton.
Mr. Pierson stated that the
Farm Bureau had already done
much for the farmers in the case
of cotton. He stated that at the
outset only $25 a bale was ad-
vanced farmers on their cotton,
but that in a few days the banks
raised the limit to $40, and a few
days later to $50. Mr. Pierson
feels assured that this year three-
fourths of the value of the cotton
will be advanced.
All farmers are invited to be
present Saturday and wheat
growers are especially urged to
attend.

Income Tax Facts
The new requirement of the
income tax law that returns shall
be made of gross income of $5,000
or more regardless of the amount
of net income upon which the tax
is assessed, necessitates carefu
computation on the part of the
taxpayer. “Gross income includes
practically every dollar receivec
by the taxpayer during the year
1921 in salaries, wages, commis
sions, rents, royalties, interest on
bank deposits, cash dividends on
stock, ‘ * or income from any source
whatsoever.” “Net income” is
gross income less certain deduc-
tions provided for by the act, in
eluding all business expenses
incurred in the conduct of a bus-
iness, trade, profession, or voca-
tion.
Certain expenditures, however
are not deductible as a business
expense when made for the pur-
chase of articles of more or less
permanent chacter, or for perma-
nent improvement of property.
For example a merchant would
not be allowed to deduct money
expended in the erection of a
new store or a farmer the cost of
a new tractor or thrashing ma-
chine, since such investments
are held to be capital invest-
ments. The law expressly pro-
hibits the deduction of family or
living expenses, such as rent for
a dwelling, repairs to a dwelling,
cost of food and clothing for the
« family, education of children,
[ servants’ wages and similar
H items. Amounts spent during
j the year 1921 for any of these
“ items are not deductible.

The Orderly Town.
Here is something we have
seen in many newspapers, none
giving credit. We do not know
who wrote it, but do know that
it contains much truth:
The ordinary, country town
can not expect to present a fine
appearance as the result of hav-
ing many costly edifices. It may
have some handsome buildings,
but it usually can not invest any
great amount in expensive archi-
tecture and building materials.
It ha3 to acquire a pleasing ap-
pearance in other ways largely by
a scrupulous care of its business
buildings, homes and streets,
with the patient effort to beautify
the same.
Property that is kept in per-
fect repair has a finish and trim-
ness about it that counts more
than costly architecture. You
see many towns where a great
deal has been spent on ornate
and elaborate buildings, but
where the streets are not kept
clean, and where many people
still tolerate disorderly condi-
tions. A place like that looks far
inferior to many simply built
country towns which are careful-
y maintained.
The physical appearance of a
town has much to do with its
business progress and success.
People are not attracted to a dis-
orderly town. It looks like the
place where inefficiency is the
rule. Visitors have the feeling
that that spirit would prevail in
the stores in their dealings with
the public. But a town whose
business and home buildings are
kept in good repair and well paint-
ed looks like a winner. People
feel that the same spirit of order
and system must make it a good
place to do business in.
The people of Celina have on
a whole kept a very orderly look-
ing community. But there are
some folks everywhere whose in-
stinct is to slip along as easily as
possible. They realize that their
real estate is getting to look a lit-
tle run down, but their motto is,
“Never do today what you can
put off until tomorrow!”
Every time anyone gets out
and straightens up a leaning
fence, or repairs some tumble-
down building, or paints a house
that is getting to look shabby, he
helps his home town take a step
toward progress.
His desire for improvement spurs
on his indifferent neighbors, and
soon the whole street begins to
have a new air of alertness and
progressiveness.
