Six physical therapists and 59 nurses were recruited for service in Illinois by the National Foundation. Central SALES FRED J. SMITH Complete Motor Overhauling I Welding JOHlfSBUlta ILL. McHENBY 900-J Winers UHflMk Smatl Hog Supply on Winter Market For the next several weeks, market supplies of hogs m?.y run as much as one-fiftu leas than they were a year earlier. This conclusion is based on a review of the number of pigs saved last summer. In May farmers saved only 1.3 million pigs. That was 18 per cent less than t.hey had saved a year earlier. In June, the number saved was only 680,000, or 28 per cent less than in 1952. For both these months together the number of pigs saved was 20 per cent, or one-fifth less than were saved the same two months of the previous year; Moat hogs are sold at seven or eight months of age, so the effects of these light farrowings last May and June will show up in small receipts during the remaining weeks of this winter. Farrowings were more nearly normal in July and August. In July farmers saved 630,000 pigs -- or only five per cent less than in 1952. In August they saved 1.2 million, the same as the year before. For these two months, pigs saved totaled 18 million, down two per cent from 1952. In recent years, average monthly prices for hogs worked up from December to March, then slipped off a little for April and May. In the next few years the high month for the season seems HK«ly *o1*J^ruar>.r Iowa cuts its fall gjfe crop more than any slate. , The till coin growers saved 540,0(16, or 8 per cent fewer pigs than in the previous fall. The Hoosiers cut 250,000 head, or 7 per c#hU Illinois reduced 210,000, or^flVe per cent. -Missouri trimmed off 130,000 pigs, or five per cent. All of the thirteen North-Central states, except South Dakota, show a smaller fall pig crop for 1953 than for 1952. In fact, aU of the other states, except three unimportant ones, show docreas* es. According to the government survey, farmers plan to have 7.8 million sows to farrow during the six months aiding ttdxt Jufie 1. This number of fcofrg would be 6 per cent m^re than, farrowed last spring, but 15 per cent less than the ten-year average. In each of * the past two springs, farmers set an all-time high record for pigs saved 'per litter. The 1953 average was 7.8 pigs per litter. If farmers do as well this spring, and if the number of nows to farrow is as reported, the spring pig crop would be up six per cent from* 1953. If, however, the number of pigs per litter is only equal to the three-year average, the increase in spring pigs would be only 4 per cent. For several years, April has been the biggest month for spring pigs. But farmers are breeding for earlier pigs each year. It seems likely that this year, for the first time, ."he largest farrowing -will be in March. Your Income Tern DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST Aft 136 S.

Sauber, district director of Internal Revenue for the Northern District of Iltynoja, presenting the most important facts pertaining t? your 1953 Federal Income Tax return.) Minors as Taxpayers Evfry citizen or resident the United States -- whether an adult or a minor -- who had $600 of gross income in 1953 must file a federal income tax return, A,, great deal is known about adults and their filing, but not very much is written about the requirements of minors Minors are separate taxpayers, subject to the same filing requirements and entitled to the same exemptions, deductions and "redits as other taxpayers. For federal income tax purposes,. the minor's earnings, no matter what the source, are for his own tax purposes regardless of the state laws of the state in which he resides. JKinojiir? muijJtisL eral income tax returns if ttonr gross income was. 9600 Ror during the year. htfnfcr tW taxable an,,.hi8 Vages «pd oh %• !come received from property he owns or funds that may hoWh in trust for him. He should file a return and pay his tax even though the parents may hare received the money. Minors are person^. under ago. Of course, the age differs in tbe different states. Generally speaking, persons who are not old >-• nough to vote are considered minors. In Illinois, a minor is a person who has not attained his twenty-first birthday, if male, or eighteenth birthday, if female. If a minor files a, return, he is entitled to an exemption of $600 for himself. This is his personal, individual exemption. A minor who has gross income of less than $600, whose wageb have been subject to withholding, is entitled to a Refund. To obtain this refund, he should file the yellow Form 10^0A, attach the W-2 wpge slip and send the completed form to the District Director^ office, 22 West Madison street, Chicago, whereupon after processing, the refund will be sent to the minor taxpayer TOWER GRILL ON ROUTE 120 IN LAKEMOOR F eaturing French Fried SWIFT'S "TENDERGROWN" PREMIUM CHICKEN JUMBO GULF SHRIMP DINNERS -- $1.45 fefteeks and Sandwiches Open from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. -- Fri.
