Records on file In the office of the ?yew York' Ht«fe Income Tax Bureau at Albafiy he»r ellen* testimony to the prominent part played by fanners of the Kmpire Htate In the collection of tlie state's flrst Income tax.
Returns show that farming In New y^ork suite not only rea<:hed a high water mark In 1919 Imt that he agrl- culturisls did their full share toward the !#jcce8sful operation of the new law.' Vast agricultural areas from Tx)ng Island to T..'ike Erie furnished th<' f<»undation for revenue producing and tlirtfty farmers In these splendlJ farming sectlona traveled "on high" when fl; came to prwluclng thetr share !!f funds necessary to coniiucl the many rttate departments.
"FIgurtSH just (omplled show large receipt*." Mid Mark Graves, director fit Ihe Incon*' Tax Bureau, "totAl re celpls of trver $37,000,000 for the year 1920 In payment of the 1919 |)ersonaI income lax. Over eight hundred th<M sand returns were flled and of thli" number heller than half a million resl deniH and nonxesidents paid a tax run ning from one per cent to alm-jst onr •nillion dollars. A very generous shar* of these taxpayers were farmers as the figures show, and they paid promptly anil made honest returns." Was s Hardship. "The attention of agrleulturists U calle<l to the number of Important ampndmcnts.to the} law. One of the most popular of ceurse. ia the exten¬ sion of time in which to file returns from March 15th to April 15th. Under the incme tax law as passed, the time limit lo paying both the Federal and Htiitc Lax wa.s March 15th, which ro. suited In confusion and hardshii* for most taxpayers. The extension will give a thirty-day breathing spell after pay¬ ing the Federal tax.
"We expect considerable new re- s-flnue for 1920 from the fifty thousand or more employees of railroads opera¬ ting wilhin the .state who were exempted from payment of the 1919 tax through fed(«ral control nnd operation of the railroads. The exemption al.so applied IA employees of Ihe telephone and telegraph companies, and the Ameri¬ can KiiilWay i;xi)ress. An audit has already been made of over .seven hun dred tlvnisand returns. Of this num ber refonds hnve already been made to clevea thousand per.sons who wero In the v'lrloUH exempt br.anches of the Federal setrvlce including a very large perccntago of army and navy .service men. The railroads and other corpor atlons referred to have been returned tn private ownership nnd employees will have to r)ny the 1920 tax the aame as everybody else."
"Farmers ."»*: well n<i all other tax payers will. T am sure, b* intereatcil in knowing tHnt we nre refunding a i-onsiderable sum of money to persons who paid more income lax thnn re¬ quired l)y law. The purpose of the audit of returns is not lo extract addit¬ ional assessment from the t.axpayer. but rather lo maVe the examinations in a fair and friendly spirit with the sole object of receiving the just amount due and no more. Persons who over¬ looked exemptions and deductions lo which they were entitled nre having the excess money relumed to llicm as rapidly as such returns are reached ir the course of the daily audit."
The Bureau urges farmers not tr delav in niing their returns. It is fel* that they Iiave already computed thei' Kcounts for Hie calendar year 192'' and that ll will be nn easy la.sk lo 111' out the return while the flgiircB are fresh."
What is Cross Income? In order that the fanner may deter¬ mine wiiat tax he is to pay tn the Stale he should first ascertain b'- erross Income. He can do this by add ing together all income which ho re^ celves ."iich as proceeds of croi>s raise'' on the farm, profits made on .the saV of farm i)roperly or profits made frof the sale of animals raised on the farm There are certain receipts which the , - farmer receives which are nolP to be

rapidly and full details of the new car
aro promised 1ft a fow weeks. Sevcial
hun(h^(J cars will be built this year,
production beginning In the earlv F.ill.
An output 9t G.OliO cars is planned for
1922. Tho Farmlngdale plant will start
operations on a small scale oboui May l. One standard chassis Is to be pro

INCOME TAX TIPS TO SAVE YOUR TUNE
reived aji the result of WorkmeB's CwtipMiaation Actii.
About Ket Iikmm.
J^flfn Ills grom income the farmer ta allowed to deduct his ordinary bus! newt expenses such an labor. Incidental repairs, insurance on his farm build¬ ings and taxes other than thnne for )o<:al Improvementa or income taxes paid to the city, state and federal governmentii.
Penions who operated a farm and nied the state return for iai9 will unde^-stand the ilcpreclo!tlon allowance. For example, a wooden bam whlc*! would last about 25 yearn; its value should be taken as of .lanuary 1, 1919 nnd the state allows an annual deduct¬ ion approximately 4 per oent of its original cost. Rlrallar allowances are also made to %>ver farm machinery.
There is a distinction between ordi nary repairs and such repairs as materially increases the life of the equipment. Ordinary repairs are .a business expense and do not materially increase the life of the equipment. Vhlle other repairs which prolong the life of the equipment are called capital investments nnd are not deductible. In other words, If snme lights of glass were puttied in a barn window, the money paid out is a business expense, .I'ut if a new concrete waterlng-trfwgh was built it would not be allowed aa V. would be considered a capital invest ment.
After the farmer has taken the de. ductions which are allowed by law and charged off his depreciation he arrlvcl at net income and it Is at this point hat he fletermines whether or not he la requlrejl to make a return.
If he Is single and has u net Income of $1,000 or more he must make a re¬ turn. If he is married and has on Income of $2,000 or more he must make a return. This does not mean that every person who makes a return Is going to pay a tax because from net income the taxpayer is qllowed to do- duct his perspnal exemption which in the case ot a single person is $1,000; in the case of a married person, '»• head of a family $2,000. An additional $200 exemption is allowed for each child under 18 years of nge or person who because of mental or physical incapa¬ city is.dependent on the taxpayer for support.
No change has been made in tho rate of taxation. It is one per cent on the flrst $10,000; 2 per cent on the next $40,000. and 3 per cent on all sums in excess of $50,000 of taxable income.
