The chiton is practically all
picked in this county. A few farm
ers are turning cotton stalks un
der, although the land is dry, to
plant small grain.
Where cotton stalk land can be
scratched or turned shallow in
preparation, grain should produce
satisfactory yield due to litlte rain
during the year to pack hard the
land. Of course each day delayed
now in seeding grain will no doubt
affect the yield of oats and barley.
No one woudl expect a stand of
grain if seeded now in the dry
spell.
A few farmers are seeding oats
in the present condition, so when
rain does come, the grain will
come up. It’s possible for a wet
spell to follow a dry spell, and in
such case the grain crop would
not be seeded.

In the past it has been a full
sheet of questions, front and
back. This has been reduced to a
card about the size of a bank
check, with 15 lines of informa

detailed directions, and also
serves as a guide to whether the
taxpayer w’ould be better off to
use the simple 1040A form, or
the more complicated 1040 form. |
As in the past, the Revenue :

Washington, Oct. 16. — The
government today unveiled its
new income tax forms, including
a simple 15-line card.' for wage
earners receiving less than $5,-
000 a year.
Internal Revenue Commission
er T Coleman Andrews estimat
ed that 35 million of the more
than 60 million U. S: taxpayers
are eligible to use the card form
—a stripped down version of old
1040A—but he said a lot of them
will tackle the more complicated
1040 form instead. <
Under the general tax revision
law enacted this year, all returns
must be in by April 15. one_
month later than the previous t
March 15 deadline, but the tax
collectors will welcome them any
time after Jan. 1.
The new law overhauling the
tax structure made no change in
general rates, although it pro
vided cuts for millions of indi
viduals and nearly all corpora
tions. A 10 per cent reduction in
personal taxes went into effect
last Jan. 1 under previous legis
lation.
Most of the new forms were
merely revised to fit changes in
the general tax structure but the
1040A card form is- something
brand new. Andrews said it may
be the first step toward relieving
