Georgia Marke Farmers' Bulletin Phil Campbell, Commissioner VOLUME 49 ATLANTA. GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8, 1964 NUMBER 19 Income Tax, Social Security Tax Deadlines Nearing For Farmers Form 943, Employees SS Tax Form, Due 31st From Farmer Employers In addition to their regular individual income tax and Social Security or self employment tax forms many Georgia farmers are also liable for filing Federal Form 943 which covers the farmer employer's annual Social Security tax return for agricultural employees. This particular form must be filed before January 31 by any farmer who paid cash wages of $150 or more or who worked an employee for 20 days or more during 1963, according to A. C. Ross, District Director of the Internal Revenue Service in Atlanta. The Director explained that this return covers the Social Security taxes of the employee. The employer is to contribute his share of three and five-eights, plus the employee's share of three and five-eights of the total gross wages paid. The total of seven and one-fourth percent of gross wages is the amount of tax which is to be reported and paid before January - 31, due date of the Form 943 return. The tax applies only to the first $4800 of wages paid by the farmer employing the worker. If any employee performs agricultural labor for 20 days during the year for any amount of cash wages or earns $150 cash wages for working during a shorter period, then his employer is liable for filing and paying the taxes and is required to do so by Federal law. The district Director emphasized the necessity of correctly listing the employer L identification number on the return and the correct Social Security number of each employee. If a farmer who is liable for filing this return doesn't have an employer identification number, he should immediately contact either Internal Revenue Service or Social Security Administration for a SS-4 application. Mr. Ross also pointed out the responsibility of employers for depositing their tax funds in the bank when they reach more than $100 before December 1. ' "Whenever the total amounts, both the DON'T FORGET YOUR OWN SOCIAL SECURITY (SELF EMPLOYMENT) TAX in addition to filing income tax returns farmers are also reminded of the need for computing and filing Social Security or self employment tax on themselves. The farmer Social Security tax rate is 5.4% of the self employment income up to a maximum of $4,800 in income. Income tax form 1040 includes Schedule F-l which is used in computing self employment or Social Security taxes. Schedule SE, a part of Schedule F-l, is used in paying self employment or Social Security taxes. Complete information on income tax returns as well as information on Social Security taxes may be obtained from the nearest office of the Internal Revenue Service. Georgia offices of the IRS are listed elsewhere in this issue of The Bulletin. employers and the employees shares combined, reach more than $100 by the end of November, then the law says the money must be placed in one of the banks of the Federal Reserve System." "The Bank will give the employer a Form 450, a depositary receipt, showing that the money has already been paid in. The employer should include this receipt with his return when he files'." The Director went on to say that it is the responsibility of the employer to keep an accurate record of his employees wages, their full name and Social Security Number, and the amount, if any, deducted from their cash wages paid for agricultural labor. "It is also the responsibility of the employer of Agricultural laborers to furnish them with an accurate statement of their earnings before January 31. This should clearly show the name, Social Security Number, the total wages paid him in cash for the year and the total amount of employee tax deducted from his wages." For additional information a farmer employer should telephone the nearest office of Internal Revenue in time to get the correct details before the due date of the return. A list of these offices is published elsewhere in this issue. Federal Income Tax Deadlines For Filing Different Forms Vary Georgia farmers who earned at least two-thirds of their 1963 gross income from agriculture must file their estimated 1963 Federal Income Tax Returns, Form 1040-ES, on or before Wednesday, Janu- ary 15, according to A. C. Ross, District Director of Internal Revenue in Atlanta. "This will not be necessary, though," the director added, "if the farmer files his form 1040 and pays in full any tax due no later than February 17, 1964." Ross went on to say that an original declaration of estimated tax for the year 1963 should be filed on the Form 1040-ES by taxpayers who first became liable for filing an estimate during the fourth quarter of 1963. "However," he said, "a taxpayer who is required to pay an installment, or who first became liable for filing a declaration or finds it necessary to amend his declaration in the last quarter of 1963, need not meet the January 15th deadline provided he files his 1963 income tax return and pays in full the balance of tax he owes on or before January 31, 1964. This does not, though, apply to farmers." The Director related that farmers and most professional men must file a return if their net earnings from self-employment reached $400 or more. The farmer whose income varied from his original estimate must file an amended 1040-ES by January 15, 1964, Mr. Ross also pointed out. Document 5107 covers these provisions and is available by telephoning one of the offices of Internal Revenue Service in Georgia. Income farmers should report on the schedule F of the Form 1040 includes, for example, the following: sales and trades of livestock, if sold the amount of money received must be reported; if traded, the fair market value of the property received, plus any money received in the trade.

MARKET BULLETIN PAGE 5 GEORGIA ANNUAL COMMERCIAL VEGETABLE SUMMARY 1963-1962 The value of Georgia's 1963 commercial fresh market and processing vegetable crops mounted to $15,184,000 two percent above the 1962 value of $14,905,000. Dry weather in May and early June reduced yields in many areas of the State. However, tomatoes and sweelpoiatoes produced record yields per acre. Total acreage harvested is two percent below last year, due mainly to unfavorable weather conditions around planting time. (All of the commercial vegetable crops grown in the State are not included in this report.) Fresh Market and Processing Crop Year Acreage Yield Harvested Per Acre Production Price Value Per Cwt.

Commissioner of Agriculture OTICE To Flower Advertisers Instead of publishing a single flower edition of the Market Bulletin once a month, flower advertisements will be carried regularly in each issue of the Market Bulletin in the future. Flower advertisers should make every effort to limit their advertisements to 30 words and write their notices exactly as they should ap pear in print. Only one flower notice will be carried per family and the notices should be mailed so that they will arrive in the Market Bulletin office on Monday, Tuesday or Wednes day of each week to facilitate handling.

S. Department of Agriculture has purchased 23,720,256 pounds of peanut butter for domestic distribution to needy families. Nearly half of the quantity purchased was bought from three firms located in the Southeast. USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service reports it bought 8,576,928 pounds of the peanut butter from Cinderella Foods of Dawson, Ga. Another 1,429,488 pounds were bought from Shedd-Bartush of Louisville, Ky., and 952,992 pounds were bought from Blue Plate Foods of Atlanta, Ga. Other purchases were made from six firms located in Texas, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, and Illinois. Marketing Research Urged By Committee More research on marketing of agricultural commodities is being urged by the U. S. Department of Agriculture's Marketing Research and Service Advisory Committee. Research on developing instruments for measuring color, moisture content, texture, and other characteristics that help establish market quality of agricultural commodities, was assigned top priority by the committee at its annual meeting recently in Washington, D. C. Noting the excellent promise of research by USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service on controlling decay in deciduous fruits and tree nuts by hydrocooling and hot water treatment and controlledatmosphere storage, the committee suggested that these studies include other fruits. Another need cited was development of more precise sampling techniques and more rapid quality-measuring instruments for use in USDA's continuing research on insect control in stored grain, rice, and seed. A need also was cited for prompt research leading to better packaging and shipping containers for fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Winter Feeding Cows Subject of New Leaflet With winter here, it's time for Georgia cattlemen to think seriously about feeding brood cows during the cold months. To help guide them in providing proper, nutritious feed for their cows, the University of Georgia's Cooperative Extension Service has published a leaflet on winter feeding. Copies are available at county agents' offices. Titled "Winter Feed Your Brood Cows Properly," the leaflet lists some 15 alternate plans for feeding cows during the dormant season. It gives recommended daily winter rations for cows nursing calves, dry cows, and replacement heifers. In addition, there is a section on proper feeding of bulls. Extension Animal Husbandmen Dr. O. G. Daniel and M. K. Cook, authors of the leaflet, say that proper winter feeding of brood cows reduces death losses, increases the calf crop, boosts production efficiency, and makes more profit Wednesday, January 8, 1964 USDA Ends Broiler Purchase Program The U. S. Department of Agriculture has completed its broiler buying program after purchasing 50.1 million pounds of fresh, frozen, and cut-up young chickens since the program began August 16. The specially packed, USDA-inspected broilers grading U. S. Grade A, were bought by USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service for distribution to schools participating in the national school lunch program. Nearly half of the broilers purchased were bought from processing firms in five southeastern states. The Agricultural Marketing Service reports that 23.3 milion pounds of young chickens were purchased in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Virginia. An additional 13.8 million pounds were bought in Arkansas. The Agricultural Marketing Service accepted offers from 'Georgia firms totaling 8.3 million pounds. About 2.2 million pounds were bought in Alabama, while an additional 3.4 million pounds were purchased from Gold Kist Poultry Growers with delivery from either Alabama or Georgia. '63 Wool Application Deadline January 31 Farmers have until the end of January to file applications for 1963 marketing year payments under the National Wool Act, W. H. Booth, Chairman, Georgia Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation State Committee, reminded producers today. He emphasized that Janu31, 1964 is the last day for accepting payment applications in fconnection with marketings of either wool or lambs during 1963. Since this is several months earlier than under previous wool programs, the Chairman urges that producers avoid possible confusion by filing their applications on completed sales as soon as possible. Lamb Promotion Deductions Are Set Deductions from wool program incentive payments to finance the wool and lamb producers' self-help promotion program for 1963 will continue at the same level as in previous years, W. H. Booth, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation State Committee, has announced. The 1963 marketing year extends from April 1 through Dec. 31, 1963, in the transition to a calendar year basis decided upon last year. Deduction rates will be 1 cent per pound from shorn wool payments, and 5 cents per hundred pounds of liveweight from unshorn lamb payments. The deductions will provide funds for advertising, promotional, and related market activities on wool and lamb. The promotion program is implemented by agreement between the Secretary of Agriculture and the American Sheep Producers Council, as authorized by the National Wool Act of 1954, as amended. The present agreement was approved in a referendum held in 1962.
