TAX-MAN SAM
SEZ:
The Extension Service people
down at Texas A&M are busy
working out tax schools for the
county agents. For the past sev-
eral years they have worked with
Internal Revenue Service on a
number of schools for county
agents. They set up a one-day
school for the county agents and
invite other farm leaders in the
area. The school is taught joint-
ly by an Internal Revenue Serv-
ice man and an Extension Serv-
ice man. The county agents who
go to the school help farmers in
their area with their tax prob-
lems.
The county agents deserve a
pat on the head for helping the
farmers with one of their tough-
est problems—taxes. The ,Texas
Extension Service especially de-
serves Texas farmers’ thanks for
saving farmers money and trou-
ble through better education. If
you follow their advice and keep
good farm records you may save
money on your taxes as well as
run your farm better.
