ThE. KITCHE CABINE It Is certain that there {s not enough wheat, corn or rice in the world to let one bit be wasted in any way which we can avoid or control.—H. Hoover. THE DAILY PROBLEM. What shali we have for dinner? ts the daily problem, and any aids toward helping to solve the prob- lem are always welcome. Pea Griddle Cakes.— Soak two cupfuls of dried peas over night and cook the next day until soft and will pass through a sieve. Keep the water to use for sauces or soup stock. Beat two eggs, add the yolks to the puree, with a cupful of milk, half cupful of barley flour, a tablespoonful of drippings, a half teaspoonful of salt, and a tea- spoonful and a half of baking powder. Then fold the whites of the eggs and bake on a hot griddle. Serve as a veg- etable or as a meat substitute. Fruit Pudding.—Slice two quarts of apples, measure one and a half cup- fuls of sugar, half a cupful of water, three tablespoonfuls of butter, a third of a nutmeg grated, seven slices of bread. Butter the bread and soak in the cold water until soft. Place it In the bottom of a baking dish, spread over it half of the apple and sprinkle with haif of the sugar and nutmeg. Re- peat, pour in water by the spoonful, cover with a plate, and bake very slow-: ly two and one-half hours. Serve hot or cold. Lemon sauce goes well with this pudding. Kedgeree.—Take equal parts of fish and rice, for one cupful of rice take two hard-cooked eggs, one teaspoonful of curry powder, two tablespoonfuls of butter, a half a tablespoonful of cream, salt, pepper and cayenne to taste. Put the shredded fish, cooked rice, butter and white of eggs, cut fine, eream and seasoning in a dish, and toss over the fire until hot. ‘Rub the yolks of the eggs through a sleve, sprinkle with the curry, and serve hot. Boiled samp, or coarse hominy is very palatable. Soak it over night, simmer gently all day, adiing water as needed. Just before croy oviices, against 107,774 ounces in 1915; 156,774 ounces in 1914, 178,642 ounces in 1913 and 175,881 ounces in 1912. The decrease last year extend- ed to nearly all the districts, but was most marked on the Demidov estates and the Shuvalov placers. The short- age of labor has been one of the causes of the decrease. The fact that all crude platinum is now requisitioned by the government has led, it is believed, to the concealment of some quantities, so that the figures given are below the real output. A considerable quantity of crude platinum is understood to be held by Russian banks, which ad- vanead money tu the producers before the metal was taken by the govern ment, Cave Men In America. The cave man has long been sup- posed to have lived only in the old world, and if the term is used to mean the very primitive species of homo sapiens, this is true. Explorations made in Kentucky this year by scien- tists of the American museum, how- ever, show that primitive men ‘did live . in caves In America. In the Mammoth cave and others they found unmistak- able evidence that the mouths of the Kentucky caverns were used as dwell- ing places and that the Indians ex- ‘lored the caves and mined quartz in ‘hem, This is especially interesting hecause it is known that Indians did not live in this region after its discov- ery by white men. The American cave dwellers, therefore, must have belonged to an earlier period. Safety Matches Cause of Disease. “Four writers in turn,” says the Ugeskrift for Laeger, Copenhagen, “de- scribe cases of eczema which they were unable to explain in the otherwise healthy patients until they learned of Rasch’s experience with local poison- ing of the skin from the use of a cer- tain brand of safety matches. In most of the patients the burn was on the thighs corresponding to the trousers Pockets in which they carried the match boxes.” WRITER’S PEN<IS FREAKISH There Have Been Many Instances of Authors Mechanically Saying Something Not Intended. Many, if not most, writers have had to bewail the occasiunal freakishness of the pen ir, putting down on paper something very different from that in- tended by its author, says a writer in the Westminster Gazette. Readers of Sir George Trevelyan’s “Life of Macau- lay” will recall the historian’s horror when, too late, he discovered that he had written in the Edinburgh Review that “it would be unjust to estimate Goldsmith by “The Vicar of Wake- field” or Scott by “The Life of Na- poleon,” when he really intended to say that it would be unjust to estimate Goldsmith by his “History of Greece." There was, too, an amusing slip of the pen perpetrated by the grave Sir Archi- bald Alison in including Sir Peregrine Pickle instead of Sir Peregrine Mait- land among the pallbearers at the duke of Wellington’s funeral. Another striking ‘nstance of the pen mechanically writing something not in- tended came under notice the other day on the title page of a reprint of @ onev famous book, Jane Porter’s “Seot- tish Chiefs.” This edition, published seme years ago by a well-known Loat- don house, Gescribes Miss Porter as “author of “Prideand Prejpdics; ‘Gease ae tlle Satan eR AE, kina Pk NRT RTA RETAIN BRR RL A UREN EE SID Te eee SS THIS TELLS HOW 10 FIGURE INCOME TAX Squarely Up fo Every Individual to Get Busy by March 15 or Suffer Penalty. “Don’t wait until the final due date, March 15th, for paying your Income Tax and making your return. Avoid the last minute rush. Any person can figure out his liability today as well as he can next week, and if there is any point on which he needs advice he can now get in touch with a Revenue man.” This word of advice is from William ©. Whaley, Collector of Internal Reve. nue, Helena, Mont., who is collecting the Income Tax in Montana, Idaho and Utah, Collector Whaley is giving with- out charge every aid of his office and his enlarged field force to help the peo- ple get their payments and their re- turns in by March 15th, But the Income Tax men’ will not pull your door-bell or your coat-tails, according to the Collector’s announce- ment. It is,squarely up to every indl- vidual to figure out his own case and to get busy if he comes within the scope of the new Revenue law, Did You Earn This Much? Every unmarried person, who receiv- ed income averaging $19.25 a week during 1918 and every married couple who jointly received income averaging $38.50 a week should secure at once from the nearest Deputy Collector or the nearest bank a blank Form 1040 A. That form contains the information he will need to enable him to figure his correct net income and any tax that he owes the Govegnment. > The law requires that every unmar- ried person who had a net income of $1,000 or over and every married per- son whose net income was $2,000 or over (including the income of husband or wife, and the earnings of minor children, if any) must make a return on or before March 15th. And this re- quirement does not hinge on whether ge person owes a tax. Taxable Income. An individual must include under gross income all gains, profits and in- come. derived from salaries, wages, or compensation for personal service of whfitever kind and in whatever form paid, or from professions, vocations, business, sales or dealings {n property of all kinds, interest, rent, dividends, or profits derived from any source whatever. Very few items of income are exempt. Deductions‘include ordinary and nec- essary business expenses, interest paid or accrued on indebtedness, taxes of all kinds except Federal income and excess profits taxes and assessments for local benefits, losses actually sus- tained, debts ascertained to be worth- less, and depreciation on buildings, ma- chinery, fixtures, ete., used in business. A further deduction !s allowed for con- tributions to corporations operated for religious, charitable, scientific or edu- cational purposes or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals to an amount not exceeding 15 per cent of the taxpayer’s net income as computed without the benefit of the contribution deduction. The taxpayer is not allowed to de- duct any personal, living or family ex- pense, any amount spent for improving property, or any expef&e of restoring property or making good its exhaus- tion for which an allowance is claimed under depreciation, Figuring the Tax, Before fi.uring the normal tax the dividends ure deducted as credits from net income, together with the personal exemption, As in previous years, divli- dends of domestic corporations are ex- empt from normal tax when received | by the stockholder, The normal tax rates for citizens and residents are as follows: On the first $4,000 of net income in excess of the credits the rate is 6 per cent; on any further taxable income the rate is 12 per cent, ~ The surtax rates apply to net in- come of each individual in excess of $5,000. The personal exemption and the dividends are not deductible before computing surtax, In the case of re- turns by husband and wife, the net income of each Is considered separate- ly in computing any surtax that may be due, Form 1040 should be used for making returns of net Income exceed- ing $5,000, and the instructions on that form will show how to figure the sur- tax, Business House Returns. Employers and others who paid wages, salaries, regts, gnterest or sim- ilar determinable gains in an amount of $1,000 oy over during 1918 to any Person must file an information return with the Government. Blanks may be secured from the Collector. : Every partnership must file a return showing its income and deductions and the name and address of each partner, with his share of the profits or losses during the past year. Personal service corporations will file similar informa- tion for 1918, WRK KKK KKK KKK + + INCOME TAX PAYS FOR PUBLIC BENEFITS. “Viewed in truest sense, * * * * * its largest and * the payment of * taxes is payment for benefits * received or expected.
