Clemson, Nov., 20.—Farmers op erating on a catehilar-year bash are reminded rthat tthe deadline f er filing .their , Declaration .ol Estimated T^x for 1,943 is Decern ber 15. If at - least 80 f per cent. ol the taxpayer's estimated-gross in come is .derived from •farming and reaches a specified amount, he must file this declaration, sayc M. C. Rochester, £arm manage ment specialist of the tClemson Extension Service. A declaration of estimated fax must be filed .by.a single person or a married person not t living With husband or wife, with -a gross income of $500 or more for either 1042 or 1943; or a married person living .with husband or wife, with a [gross income of $624 or more. The . perspjpal exemption for a married person, under the regular income . tax is still '•$1200, but because of the Victory tax a return must be filed if gross •in-' come is $624 or more. Thg final and exact liability for 1943 is de termined on a return to be filed on or before March 15, 1944. *Mr. Rochester calls attention to a United States Department of Agriculture publication. Farm Bookkeeping and the Federal In come Tax, which presents some! of the requirements for making adequate summaries of the :farm business for federal income-tax returns and should be helpful to farmers in understanding some of the problems involved. This publication is available, without harge, through county agents. “Those farmers who have kept complete farm and home account r'cards during 1943 in cooperation with the Extension Service will find these records of much value in filling in the required forms,” Mr. Rochester says. “The usefulness of account keeping, moreover, extends far beyond any single purpose such as income-tax reporting. The analysis of,the farm business ser viceable for making tax returns naturally leads to the use of rec ords for guidance on questions of farm management. Better farm ers and farmers better off will be the logical result as farm ac counts are used to analyze the fi nancial results of farm opera tions.” X It’s just as important to harvest a crop of contentment as it is to harvest a crop of cotton or com or tobacco. t m- € ill# IV •It s time to think about your winter qeeds for home and family.
