so retailers will not run out of
change. Tokens may be used by
any members of the family.
Ration Tokens
You‘ll soon slip into the easier
system of shopping with ration
tokensif you follow'these A-B-C’s
1—Ration tokens may be used
for change on all food ration
stamps. You get them as change
from your butcher or grocer, and
can spend them on low-point pur-
chaSes.
2—You have. two sets of stamps
to use: old and new. Old green
stamps K, L, M for processed
foods, and old brown stamps Y, Z
for meats-fats, are valid until
March 20 at their present face
values 8, 5, 2 and 1 points.
New blue stamps A8, B8, C8,
D8, E8 for processed foods, and
new red stamps A8, B8, C8 for
meats-fats, are valid thru May
20, all worth 10 points each.
3—Until March 20, when the
old stamps expire, 31-point green
and brown stamps also may
used as change, as well as tokens.
Red tokens are used for meat-
stamp change; blue for processed
foods.
4—USE YOUR OLD STAMPS
FIRST. When they are gone, you
will be able to buy all your ra-
tioned‘ food with stamps from
Book 4, which also contains your
sugar stamps. Then you’ll have
only 10-point stamps for process-
ed foods, and meat-fats, with 1—

.Cows Need More
Good Roughage
As a cow will give more milk
‘if she is in good flesh at calving
time it is advisable to feed her
liberal quantities of good rough-
age after she goes dry, says Dr.
Otto J. Hill, extension dairyman
at the State College of Washing—
ton.
This is one of the main points
in the 8-point dairy program cur—
rently being carried on by Wash-
ington dairymen to help them
meet 1944 food needs.
“It is a good idea to feed a cow
‘two to four pounds of grain in
addition to roughage during the
dry period,” says Dr. Hill. “Many
.dairymen have found that feed-
ing grain during this period is a
splendid investment.”
The best feeding guide for
cows during the dry period is
their condition when they are
dried off. Under no circumstances
should dry cows be turned out on
poor pasture or given low quality
roughages.
Pa_ge_Threé
Such poor feeds will not provide
the minerals, vitamins and ener-
gy which is absolutely necessary
I for normal calving.
I Cows will produce most milk if
.they are allowed two months dry
1period. Milking a cow right up to
' a week or two before calving may
reduce her production in the next
Llactation by as much as 15 per
cent.
Then too, if she is turned dry
for more than two months before
calving, she will also lose in milk
!production during the next milk-
Iing period. So in order to turn
‘ cows dry at the right time, every
dairyman should keep breeding
‘dates of all cows.

The Revenue Act of 1943
When individual and corpora-
tion tax rates remain substan-
tially the same as before, most
taxpayers will pay more tax for
1944 than for 1943 because of the
repeal of the earned income credit
for individuals and the increaSed
excess profits tax rate for cor-
porations. The greatest part of he
increase revenue to be collected
under the new Act will come
from the excise taxes.
With few exceptions, expressly
noted herein, the income tax
amendments apply only to taxable
years beginning after December
31, 1943.
Income Taxes—Individuals
Rates—(1) Normal tax: Re—
mains 6 per cent of normal tax
net income, which is net income
(gross income less deductions) less
sum of personal exemption, credit
for dependents and credit for in-
terest on certain U. S. securities;
but earned income credit is abol-
ished.
(2) Surtax: unchanged.
(3) Form 1040A: in lieu of nor-
mal tax, surtax and Victory tax,
a revised table on Form 1040A
will show one total tax.
(4) Victory tax: rate reduced
from 5 per cent beforé credits to
a flat 3 per cent (regardless of
family status).
(5) Limitation: The total normal
tax, surtax and Victory tax can—
not exceed 90 per cent of net in-
come.
Credits and special allowances
—(a) For normal tax: (1) Per-
sonal exemption for single person.
or married person not living with
spouse, $500; married person liv-
ing with spouse, or head of fam-
ily, $1,200. (2) $350 for each de-

year. No apportionment will be
made where the status changes
during the year. (3) Persons in
military or naval service exclude
first $1,500 of service pay from
income. (4) Blind persons (con—
dition determined as of July 1 of
the taxable year) may deduct
$500 from income. (5) Interest on

mentalities issued prior to March
1, 1941. The earned income credit
is repealed.
(b) For surtax: Same as for

for interest on U. S. obligations
is not allowed. '
(c) For Victory tax: $624 for
each individual, except that where
husband and wife file joint re-
turn, and the “Victory tax net in-
come” of one spouse is less than
$624, the exemption is $624 plus

Social Security Taxes

for both employer and employee
continued for 1944.
Another provision liberalizes
the credit against the Federal un-
employment tax. In brief, the 90
per cent credit is retained for
state tax paid by due date but
not later than January 31; 81 per
cent credit will be allowed for
late state payment if made within
4 years of payment of Federal
tax, instead of between February
1-June 30, inclusive as heretofore.
