The WAR INDUSTRIES BOARD has removed all building restrictions
HISTORY RECORDS THAT ALL WARS HAVE BEEN -FOLLOWED BY PERIODS OF INTENSE RECONSTRUCTION. That the present war surpasses all
others in magnitude and destructiveness only means that its sequel of reconstruction will also surpass all others in magnitude. GET READY FOR THE BIG BOOM IN
BUILDING. All of the towns in this state need new residences, new business houses, and a vast amount of repair work. FARMS need houses, barns, sheds and repairs.
WE ARE READY TO DO OUR PART! HOW ABOUT YOU?

We bought our Dolls early last spring
because we found a wonderful bargain. These
Dolls are excellent quality and good size. They
have unbreakable heads and hands and cork
stuffed bodies. = - _
The clothes are all made with buttons and buttonholes. The assortment
is complete, including Red Cross Nurses, Soldiers, Boys and Girls, and
Baby Dolls—some with pacifiers.

WHAT IS YOUR NET INCOME?
Tax Slackers Will Re Cheeked Cp By
the Government.
Farmers must make an income tax
return to the United States early in
present year. While changes in the
revenue measure are still pending in
Congress, it matters not what these
will be insofar as making a return is
_concerned. That must be done by
practically every farm operator, own
er or renter. And those who may find
their income insufficient to contribute
a portion of it to Uncle Sam's coffers
will, nevertheless, have to be in shape
to show their financial condition In
figures. The point is, no farmer is
safe unless he keeps an account of
h's operations. This holds regardless
of the minimum income figure to be
fixed in the amended revenue law.
Some system of farm accounting is
absolutely essential these days, when
the lack of system may cause the
farmer to get in trouble with the In
ternal Revenue collector.
This applies, of course, to citizens
of all classes, and not to farmers
alone. The wage earner in town, or
the city business man, finds It much
easier to figure out whether he has
any income tax to pay, because his
Income, if a wage earner, is on a fix
ed monthly or yearly basis, or If a
merchant, he is already keeping books j
on all items. With the farmer the
keeping of accounts is not the rule
but the exception. A great majority
of farmers do not know whether they
are making money or not, because
their method of keeping account of in-!
come and outgo is temporary or hap-!
hazard, applying perhaps-to the im-;
nortant transactions only, and not to !
the everyday business of the farm.
However, since the passage of the;
hnronie tax law. which went into ef

Western Farm Life is prepared to
advise its readers in regard to income
fax matters and to put up questions
to the Internal Revenue officers for
reply. By December 1st it is hoped
that the amendments to the law will
have been provided for. so that more
definite announcement can be made
as to the exemption figures. Last
year only those heads of families hav
inp a net income of $2,000 a year or
more, or of single men having a net
income of $1,000 a year or more were
obliged to make returns. The new
provisions, it is believed, will lower
these figures, so as to take in prac
tically everybody. What is your net
income? How can you determine this
if you do not keep account of your
transactions? Thoße questions must
