manner that corporations can provide it for their employees? If we get the ranch, we may be

a little low on

cash for the first few years.

Answer: The recently enacted Keogh Act can help you retire pension worries. Aimed to give self-employed [persons the tax

benefits allowed on pensions for those Who work for others, the Keogh Act now allows you to deduct up to $1250 a year from your taxable income in order to,

finance your retirement.

Question: We’re thinking of buying a working ranch and going into business for ourselves. One hitch to the idea is having to give up the automatic pension plan where my husband works. Is

there any way that self-em- _ ployed persons can provide for*

their own pension in the same case $500 — and only half this

amount would be tax deductible. But if you have employees you can deduct 100 per cent of your contributions in their behalfafter they have been with you

for three or more years.

Question :Fm only dreaming, but suppose we found oil or something on our land and earned a whopping $50,000 a year. How much of this could go into a pension plan for our golden

years?

Answer: Any amount you like, of course. But if you are planning to take advantage of the Keogh Act tax benefits, the ceiling expenditure on pensions is $2500 a year — and half this amount would be tax deductible.

Question:Jfou mean that if we Question: Would we also pay ***** ^ -- taxes on t |, e p] an ’ g accumulated

earnings?

clear $5000 the first year, we can sink $1250 of it into a

pension plan—tax free?

Answer: No—it’s a little more complicated. Under the terms of the bill only 10 per cent of your earned income can go into an

insured pension plan—in that I than it is today.

Answer: No. Only on benefits you actually receive during your retirement. During that time your income tax bracket will probably be considerably less

4 YOUR HEALTH... — By LESTER I* COLEMAN, M.D. Some Facts On Varicose Veins

Q: WHAT are varicose veins ? A: The veins of the legs lie Just below the surface of the akin and deep in the muscles. These veins return the circulating blood to the heart. Because of man’s upright position or weakness of the walls of the veins, they frequently become enlarged, dilated and lengthened in a snake-like fashion. Q: What causes them ? A: Excessive weight, pregnancy, fibroids of the uterus Dr. Coleman and many general illnesses of the body that affect the circulation can produce varicose veins in the superficial and deep veins of the legs, s Q: What symptoms are caused by varicose veins? A: Persistent fatigue of the muscles of the legs, tenderness and soreness of the muscles, and swelling of the ankles can occur with uncomplicated varicose veins. Longstanding varicosities may produce chronic ulcerations of the legs, infections (phlebitis) and clots within the

Veins.

It Is for this very reason that all varicose veins should be examined and followed by a physician with regularity, to avoid converting an uncomplicated problem into a trouble-

some one.

Q; If varicose veins are not «een, can they still be present end produce symptoms? A: The deep veins in the legs may have varicosities, even without too much visible evidence on the outer skin. Circulatory symptoms have been traced to changes in the deep

Veins of the legs.

' Q: How can the presence

deep varicose veins be de-

tected?

A: There are excellent tests to determine the presence or absence of both superficial and deep varicose veins. A tourniquet test reveals tha filling and the emptying of th* veins of the legs and indicates to the physician how well the tiny valves of the veins are functioning. Another test, called th« Perthes Test, is important in the determination of the circulation of the deep veins of the legs. Q: What is the most effective treatment for varicose

veins?

A: The choice of treatment depends on a full evaluation of the total circulatory system, including the heart and kidneys. Some treatment is devoted exclusively to the cosmetic appearance of the legs. Other treatments are aimed at restoring normal, healthy and vigorous function to the veins of the legs. Exercise, compression bandages and elastic stockings can, under supervision, bring comfort and relief of symptoms of varicosities. Sometimes the superficial veins of the legs, particularly if they are small, can be injected with a “sclerosing solution” which forms a clot and closes off these tiny, unsightly veins. Remarkable advances in tha surgical treatment of varicosa veins have made vein ligation and stripping operations safa and rewarding, bringing gratifying relief of the annoying symptoms. While Dr. Coleman cannot undertake to answer individual letters, he will use readers? questions in his column when* ever possible and when they are of general interest. Address your letters to Dr. Coleman in core of this newspaper.

SALMON WAFFLES I

Quick luncheon idea adds flaked canned salmon to a basic recipe : | for plain waffle. (Use a mix if desired.) It’s a delicious flavor i combination.

If you’ve never tasted salmon waffles, you don’t know what : you’re missing, especially when they are served with a delicious sour cream sauce flavored with

dill.

Adding salmon to a basic waffle mixture transforms this popular breakfast dish to more substantial fare, suitable for hmeh or supper. Served with a tossed green salad, the waffles and sauce make a quick, economical and nutritious meal— pretty too. It’s the salmon, of coarse, that adds not only flavor and color, but protein to the •therwise bland waffle. Try it, and you’ll have another family favorite to count on when time Is limited. SALMON WAFFLES 1 2 eggs, separated A 1-pound can salmon 1*« cups milk ^ cup melted butter 2 cups all-purpose flour I teaspoon salt 4 teaspoons baking powder
