never paid before. A personal budget payment
plan
isailableto old taxpayers who are faced
with
substantially increased income taxes.
Canadians are asked to shoulder their share of
the war effort cheerfully and willingly. By pay-
ing your income tax regularly you help to speed.
the production of war material, and bring the day
of victory closer. Figure out how much tax you
will have to pay, and arrange to pay promptly

ent child or grandchild, in addition to the

1 HOW DO YOU
t' PAY?
/ (,, Your income tax
"f r may be paid in
the following ways, -
1. The Present Method: At least
one-third of the tax to be paid by
April :10th, the balance, with in-
terest at 5'' , from April 30th, to
be paid by August 31st, On
any balance unpaid after August
3Ist, the interest rate will be 8 ".
2. The Proposed Method: In 8
monthly instalments without in-
terest. To take advantage of this
new way of paying, the first instal -
in en t rust be paid on or before
January 31st. You must pay at
least one-third of the estimated
tax in four equal monthly instal-
ments, in January, February,
March and April, i.e. 1-12 of the
estimated tax in each of the said
4 months. The remaining two-
thirds must be paid in four equal
monthly instalments in May,
June, July and August, i,e. 1 -6th
of the estimated tax in each of
the said 4 months. (This will be
in the amended law.)
3. The Recommended Method:
This method will not be found in
the law but it is a simple method, namely, in
eight equal monthly instalments, without inter-
est, commencing in January.
To take advantage of the monthly payment
plan without interest each payment must be
made on or before the due dates. Otherwise
interest will be charged on the total balance
remaining unpaid after April 30th.
EXAMPLE OF INSTALMENT
PAYING WiTHOUT INTEREST
If your estimated tax is
$60.00 youpay one-third of
the tax ($20.00) in four instal-
ments ($5.00 each) and the remaining two-
thirds ($40.00) in four instalments ($10.00 each).
Your payments are therefore as follows:
On or Before On or Before On or Before On or Before
Jan. 31 Feb, 28 Mar, 31 Aprll 30
$5 $5 $5 $5
On or Before On or Belore On or BeFore On or Before
May 31 June 30 July 31 Aug. 31
$10 $10 $10 $10 = $60

your tax in eight equal monthly instalments of
$7.50 each =860.00.

v't able on your net income less
L. I. ,.
1; a' eit12 you ex•emptions
you are single, your mum
tion is $750.00. Thus if your total
income is $1,000.00 you must pay tax on $250,00.
The exemption for a married person is
81,500.00 plus $900,00 for each dependent child
or grandchild. Thus if you are a married man
with two children and a total income of
$2,600.00 your total exemptions are 81,500.00
plus $400,00 for each child, or $2,300,00 in all.
So you pay tax on $300.00.

FURTHER IMPROVEMENT
IN BACON HOGS NEEDED
(Dominion Dept. of Agricultural
With over 80 per cent of all hog
carcasses graded in Canada eligible
for A and B grades, marketing offic-
ials of the Dominion Department of
Agrioultere state that bacon type
has been well established. The lard
type of hog has been practically
eliminated from Canadian markets.
However, officials point out that
further improvement In the weights
and carcass quality of market hogs
is necessary now in order to sheet
the -quality requirements under the
bacon contract and to maintain
Canada's position on United Kingdom
markets. Greatly increased - produc-
tion over the past fr w years s has
provided the vohutie of exports re-
quired to 5111)5013, 70011' time needs but
greoteu' attention to 'quality. and
It ctghts is essential in order to main-
tain the standards of exports. In
pointing out where improvement cant
be made. the 'Marketing Service is
lntnrpret ing market deuttunlto the
producer so that the swine industry
may be safeguarded through the war
year's and have a favourable reputa-
tion for high quality production
under peace time competition,
At the present time, nefirly 05 per•
t cut of graded carcasses Is being
t:xpurted. During the period of bla-
hs em1
heheron agreement this will require 11
Wild of twee and a half million
hogs for export to the United King-
dom. '1'r, ambito-1n elle 51audards of
quality Wiltshire sides. and eats ex-
ported during the period of agree-
ment, officials state that. it will be
necessary to have at least 45 per cent,
of all carcasses A grade in quality
and weight. In 1940 only 27 per rent
was A grade. About 56 per cent was
of B grade, and of these it is esti-
mated that a third would have been
eligible for A grade if the weights
had been right; that is, if the car-
casses had been within the weight
ranges of 140 to 170 lb. If such B
grade hogs were marketed at correct
weights, officials believe lite number
of A grade carcasses would be in-
creased to 45 per cent, or in other
words, enough to make possible ex-
port of a reasonable per cent of .A
Valle bucca of the most desirable
weights.
As far its the procurer is concerned
Ihc. solation of the problem lies iii
greater al million to the weight 00
hogs when marketing. The dentu,nd
is for hogs weighing .190 to 210 lb.
alive. T -togs of these weight. -provid-
ing they at'e of suftn'ient quality, ore
in line to yield A grade carcasses.
Lighter or )heavier hogs are likely to
yield carcasses tinder or over the
weight range of 140 to 170 lb. 12 they
do. the produc'e'r loses tate premium
on A grade and possibly has to take 11
discount as well.
Molly farmers admit that they are
falling down nn the ptobieitl „1'
Weight. Ili the p1151 they relied on
their own judgment to estimate the
weights of their hogs at market time.
Now, they agree that they stave to
weigh their hogs from time to time
during the finishing period to be ab-
solutely certain that they are above
1911 ib. and below '210 lb, when
shipped.
