With net in­ come to feeders materially re­ duced, the government pig crop report indicates that hog produc­ tion will decline in 1944. although the hog-corn ratio is still consid­ erably higher than it has been in some previous years. The pig crop report shows that the owntrend was noted last fall with a smaller pig crop than ex­ pected, although the number of pigs farrowed in the United States was 10 per cent above the fall crop of 1942. The number of pigs to be farrowed next spring was indi­ cated at 16 per cent fewer than in the spring of 1943. If farmers actually produce the number of hogs indicated for 1941, the fall and spring pig crops combined will still be the largest on record, ex­ cept in 1943. The number of pigs raised in 1943 was about 67 per cent above the 10 year average and 17 per cent more than in 1942 fi fl fi fl fi fl fi fl The tax bill reported out by the Senate Finance committee just prior to adjustment was taken up immediately by the senate and pushed for early action.

Taxpayers are now receiving their blanks for the March 15th tax statement, The public temper over income tax forms will rise steadily until the* middle of March. A surprising number of taxpayers, on receiving the statement concerning their 1942 taxes, have sent checks to the Bureau of Internal Revenue, think­ ing that this statement indicated the amount due. These payments are being returned to the taxpay­ ers who may owe more or less than this amount. If and when they are able to figure the thing out. Mr. and Mrs. Fred I).
