their tools and think perhaps the West-

At once they throw down their tools and
follow this new leader, only to stumble

"The industries- for the prisoners
should be carried on within the walla
of the prison .so far as possible, as it is
unfair to the men and the public te
place any unnecessary temptations . for
the men to break their custody.
"The flax industry, Ywhlch has oeen
such a trial m the past is now on a
basis which -should lead to success. The
farmers will contract enough acreage
for the coming year to supply the peni

The prison .brick yard .will furnish
work for 40 men at least four or five
months in the year.
' ."The wood camp will keep at least 30
to 40 men busy for the next two years.
During the summer, we placed the old
abandoned waterwheel -into the new
powerhouse, which adds at least 100
horsepower available for future use.
"I hope the next legislature will equip
the prison with a wood working plant,
so loss can be shipped in and worked up
into fruit boxes an farmere utensils.
The slabs and waste can be used for
heating. This will in no way-interfere
with any outside industry, as the amount
would be very small compared to the
state's output It Is a shame that this
free watorpower flows through the
prison unused. " -
"We have roofed most of the build

now changing the old, eisgraeeruiiy in

Although a return must be filed by every
unmarried person, and by every mar
rled person living apart from wife (or
husband), who had a pet income of f 1000
or more during 1919, recognition Is made
In the law of the home burdens carried
by millions of such -persons, and relief
from excessive taxation is especially
provided. - . ".-Y"v. -,
- In addition to the ordinary perwnal
exemption of fioou, ano) additional ex
emption of $1000, la granted to "heads of
families" ; and there Is also provided
an exemption of 1200 for each depend
ent under-18 years of age or who is
mentally or physically defective
The 200 for each dependent -may be
claimed by any taxpayer who la the
chief support of such dependent This
is not confined to dependents who are
members of the family or relatives . On
the ether hand it dees Bet include ser
vants or others who are easel ng their
living. And It does not apply to the wife
or husband of the married taxpayer,
even though sueh person may have be
come a total burden. ; ,
- It should be remembered that the
person who claims exemption as "head
of a family" must qualify for It Two
single persons who divide between
them, more or less equally, the financial

head of the family. But If a single per
son actually assumes the total respon
sibilities of the household and is aided
by having one of his brothers or sisters
support himself and contributing an
amount that could not practically be
considered more than bis board, such
trivial circumstances must net be al
lowed to interfere with his clear claim
for exemption.
