I have already filed my 1960 South Carolina income tax return, which showed tax of $52. I paid my 1959 state income tax of $60 in 1960 and also had $80 state tax withheld from my 1960 earnings. I will receive a state tax refund of $28. If I deduct, on my 1960 Federal return the $6C state tax for 1959 and th£ $52 state tax for 1960, can tTie $28 refund be excluded from my gross income for 1961? A. Yes. Q. During 1960 I spent $1200 for lime and other products to condition my farmland. Can I deduct this on my income tax re turn? A. You may either deduct these expenses on your 1960 return or capitalize them and deduct a por tion for each year that the bene fits last. Expenditures such as these that produce a benefit ex tending over a period of more than one year are ordinarily con sidered capital expenditures. How ever, for 1960 and later years, a farmer may deduct these expenses in the year paid if he so elects. Q. My son is 22 years old and attends college as a full-time student. During the summer of 1960, he earned $900 which was spent for his support. I furnish ed more than $900 toward his support. Should he file a return and, if so, does this prevent me from claiming him as a depend ent? A. Your son must file an in come tax return inasmuch as he SPECIAL SHOWING FEBRUARY 24 & 25 FRIDAY & SATURDAY by ROGER ROGERS of Globe Tailoring Company Hundreds of beautiful new fabrics for smart clothes custom tailored to fit correctly. Delivery now or later as you prefer. D. /? 0 „ off ^jammer Newberry, South Carolina ^3nc. had over $600 gross income. He is allowed his own exemption of $600 on his return. Since he is a stu dent and you furnished more than half of his support, you may claim him as a dependent. Q. I earned $4500 during 1960. My wife earned $500 from which withholding tax of $50 was de ducted. She intends to file a sep arate return in order to receive • a refund of this $50. I intend to file a separate return claiming her exemption since she earn ed less than $600. Is this all .>4.« . - <£ s«* fe right? A. No. A husband who files a separate return may claim an ex emption for his wife only if she has no income and is not the de pendent of another taxpayer. In your case, it would be to your ad vantage to file a joint return with your wife. Services Here For Mrs. Way Mrs. Sara Suber Way, 46, a former resident of Newberry and wife of George D.

DEAN, M.D. MEDITOBIAL: The discovery of, penicillin ushered in the antibiotic era and the hope that all micro bial disease-bacterial, fungal and viral—coul<| be controlled. So far only the bacterial illnesses have succumbed to some degree. In recent months fungus diseases have been cured, in some cases, with a new antibiotic, griseoful- vin. Our biggest need, however, is an antibiotic which will elimi nate the viruses. A new discovery, reported by an English researcher, may be the basis for development of an antiviral agent. Dr. AUck Isaacs, of the Nation* al Institute for Medical Research in London, described a substance caUed interferon, capable of stopping the common cold and i other respiratory viral Infections. - Strangely, interferon is produced by the disease-causing viruses, themselves, unlike antibodies, which are produced by our celts during times of infection. It ap pears that viruses manufacture their own suicide weapons. It was found that interferon can be produced by inactivated in fluenza, measles and polioviruses. However, interferon from viruses that produce experimental tumors does not inhibit the growth of tumors. This, of course, is a severe blow to cancer control but doesn’t detract from inter feron’s other possible uses. Experiments have shown Inter feron to be effective against infections already started. This distinguishes it from vaccination which must be done prior to the onset of infection to be effective. At present, interferon is pro duced in monkey kidney cells for human trials. Many more tests > will be needed to determine the safety and effectiveness of this : product. If nothing else, it is the ground breaker in the search for an antiviral agent.
