Any farmer whose profits during
the year on all his farm operations,
after deducting the proper allow-
ances for expenses, amount to more
than $5000 is subject to an excess
profit tax, acording to a statement
issued by the Income Tax Depart-
ment to the Canadian Federation
of _Agriculture. Such a farmer is
entitled, in calculating his tax, to
deduct froth total profits a salary
allowance for himself of not less
than $2600 and not more than
$5000, if he works full time on his
fame. The exact amount he will be
permitted to deduct is at .the dis-
cretion of the Minister of National
Revenue, who is guided generally
by the recommendations of the lo-
cal income tax inspectors. In the
case of a partnership, the partners
are permitted to deduct a salary
allowance for each of them, accord-
ing to what the Minister deems
proper.

Labor In Ephesus
"And he entered into the syna-
gogue, and spake boldly for the
space of three months, ;reasoning
and persuading as to the things-

The subject of Paul's preaching
was all that related to the kingdom
of God, the new dispensation, the
doctrine and church of Christ. By
'persuading' is meant 'endeavoring
to convince:

"But when some were hardened

The final manifestation of the
hardened heart is to speak evil of
the Christian faith. For three
months Paul continued his exhor-
tations to stoney -hearted hearers,
but when their obstinacy turned to
hostility, he left therm. Paul sep-
arated his disciples, for there could
be no fellowship between believers
and unbelievers and continued reas-
oning daily in the lecture hall of
Tyrannus.

ho • of the t intiles--
'dead in trespasses and '.'ins', the
children of `disobedience!' and of
wrath'. What a contrast is intro-
duced by the little word 'but'.
Darkness gives way to light, des-
pair to hope, wrath to mercy. Sin-
ners though we were by nature
and practice, God loved us.
Saved By Grace
"Even when we teere 'dead
through our trespasses, .tnade us
alive together with Christ (by grace
have ye been saved'." God -in his
grace has quickened, has saved,
those who have truly believed,
"And raised us up with him, and
made tis to sit with hint in the
heavenly places, in Christ Jesus,"
The true Christian as a member
of Christ's mystical body, though
toiling and suffering on earth in
the body is, in the life of Spirit
with Christ in Iieaven.
"That in the ages to sone he
might show the exceeding riches of
his grace in kindness toward us in
Christ Jesus." Throughout eternity
we shall ever be making new dis-
coveries of God's love and grace.
The Gift of God
"For .by grace have ye been
saved through faith; and that not
of yourselves, it is the gift of God;
not of works, that no pian should
glory." Paul states clearly and con-
sistently that by works no mann can
be saved, therefore, since salvation
cannot be of merit it must be of
grace, it must be a salvation which
God in mercy provides. '

works, which God afore prepared
that we should walk in there.'Our

GARDEN PESTS

however, if . we keel, our garden

Clii WHOLES
of RYSER FARM
By
Gwendoline P. Clarke
M 4 * • b
Discouragement over our present
unsettled weather led inc to look
up last year's seeding dates and I
find we sowed our first spring
grain on June 12. This is May 15,
and we have one field sown and
about two acres in another field so
1 guess there is still hope — ex-
cept that it is raining again! It is
too bad the weather doesn't stay
fine long enough for the farmers
to finish seeding because the men
say the land is in ideal condition
and any grain that has been sown
is growing splendidly. It is diffi-
cult for farmers to know how to
work to the best advantage. In
some cases where neighbours have
agreed to work together one man
has his seeding done while the other
hasn't started. That is likely to
happen any time and the one who
is left has to be a pretty good sport
to take it. Co-operative farming is
a fine thing in principle but if the
weatherman doesn't co-operate too
there is just a chance the scheme
may create a little bad feeling. It
just depends on what plans have
been made beforehand and how
willing each man is to take chances
— and accept the result!

shrubs looked so fresh and green.
Nor was there ever a year when
the grass grew so fast. Or do I
just notice it because I have it to
cut? It takes about three hours to
mow all the grass around here —
and that is without clipping the
edges. Saturday I had it about half
done and then had to leave it to go
to town. When I came back Part-
ner had finished it. After all, a
shower of rain has its advantages.

Do you mind if I say a word or'
two about chickens in general and
mine in particular? You don't think
I had better? Well, perhaps not,
because what I might say wouldn't
be fit for publication anyway. You
see my chickens are now seven
weeks old and high time they were

When it was nearly bedtime for
the chicks I went out to see what
they were doing, I was very wel!

them were roosting., and I thought
that was pretty good for a start. A
