' ' . - J appreciate the fact that these cooperatives require farmers to support our educational program in order to be eligible for these business benefits.. It apparently has paid off. Speaking of cooperatives. the uninformed man on the street who heard from .another uninformed man on the street that cooperatives do not pay taxes, can rest easy because it's all wrong. He is right in some cases when he says some cooperatives do not pay income taxes. , All Farm Bureau affiliated cooperatives in Illinois pay income taxes the same as any other corporation. Patronage refunds paid to members are listed oa the same as any other corporation. Patronage refunds paid to members are listed on the Internal Revenue form on the line placed on the form for rebates or refunds on purchases--the same place any department store or other retailer would list such rebates. This is subtracted from sales on the blank, SOt from profits. - By a strange quirk of circuni- '• Stances, Country Life Insurance Company, the Farm Bureau affiliated cooperative Life Insurance Company, is the only life insurance company in the United States that pays income tax. An amazing story was told by John Van Camp, state forester from Oregon, Illinois, last week . at the annual meeting of the Northern Illinois Laud Council. He •aid most farmers pay taxes on poor land and expect sympathy.

In six years he sold $4,000 in Xmas trees. (Sounds about like our own Russell Reimer's story. This took half the trees. In fifteen years he will sell about 4,000 fence- posts for about $3 000 and in 40 years he can cut a full crop of saw logs which will bring at least $1,200, Do you think $36 per acre per year income deserves any sympathy? Almost all clear profit, too, compared to growing corn or oats. A lazy man's paradise. Martin Heinz of Huntley says he runs his rotary hoe backwards. This does an excellent job of mashing clods and takes the place of a corrogated roller. He can pull it faster and cover, more ground.

If you are among them--and we hope you are--this may be the year. Listen ... "V.... Cadillac has built a great new car, for T950, that is just as practical to own as almost any car you would consider buying. It is the new "Sixty-One"--and it is priced lower than the highest-priced models of a number of other cars you would never think of as in the same class with Cadillac. Furthermore, this new Cadillac will give gasoline mileage which actually approaches that of the lowest-priced popular cars. And when it comes to lona life and upkeep-- well, a Cadillac has such endurance that its full lifespan has never been accurately measured. Yes--from the standpoint of practicality --you've lost about your last logical reason for waiting any longer to buy a Cadillac. And, oh, the things that say you ought to buy one-- right here and now! Take beauty, for instance. America's streets and highways have never carried a more handsome and distinctive car than the 1950 Cadillac. Wherever it goes, it is an irresistible magnet for admiring eyes. And then there's performance. Cadillac's miraculous new engine takes you through space almost as if the car had automatic Qulsion. You ride as if every road were a :vard. Steering and braking are amazingly easy--so easy they seem but response to your thought. To sum it all up--the,farther you can see down the highway, the happier you are-- for distance is positively enchanting when ,|you sit at the wheel of a 1950 Cadillac. And how proud you'd be, sitting there with your hand on the slender, obedient steering wheel . . . sitting there as companion to the world's most distinguished people --in unrivalled safety and comfort. Yes--maybe this is the year. Better come in today--and we'd be delighted to see you. MR.
