tax-payer to make himself known to
the government It he doesn't make
return as required before March 1, he
may have to pay Si penalty ranging
from $20, to $1,000, pay a fine or go

chances on going to jail, you better
call on the income tax man. If you
are not sure about being subject to
the tax, better ask him and make
sure. Whether you see the income
tax man or not. you must make re
turn if subject to tax.
Of course, persons resident in other
counties may, if they want to, come
and see the income tax man, who will

being waged for the measures Oregon farmers want and against
all sorts of schemes that are detrimental to the people and agri
cultural interests of this state.
We have, therefore, made a special clubbing arrangement with
THE OREGON FARMER whereby any farmer or fruit

directly or indirectly in Oregon agriculture, do not miss this

devoting itself exclusively to the' farming activities and interests
