Sales Tax Notice
The gross receipts or sales tax law
of this state became effective October
1, 1929. Returns must be made and
the tax paid on or before January 30,
1930, covering the last quarter of
1929. Penalties are provided for
failure to make returns and pay the
tax- This office is given no power
to relieve or to waive these penalties.
There seems to be an impression
that the tax applies only to businesses
engaged in the sale of commodities.
As a matter of fact every kind and
character of business is subject to the
tax, except a limited class specifically
excepted provided the gross receipts
of such business exceed $30,000
per annum.
This law will be strictly and
impartially enforced. The books of
“PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER”
and investigate before you buy. The Cash Purchaser is the one
that gets the bargains. I haven’t the largest stock in town but
I have one just as good. Come in and see for yourself.
Once a customer, always a customer.

Fir^t Nitrate of Soda
The first shipment of nitrate
of soda was brought to the Unit
ed States in 1830, and in that
year a small shipment arrived at
the port of Charleston, S. C.
Since then it has been used by
four generations of American
farmers. When the first farm
ers used mineral fertilizers there
was much doubt about the value
of the practice. It was a
“newfangled” idea, about which *
very little was known. As a
result of modern farm tests and
experimental research, it has
today become an economic
necessity in the agriculture of
the country.
