Witzky Spring brings change for pets WEST LAFAYETTE — As you make your plans for spring, keep in mind the family pet or pets (companion animals, as they are now called) need consideration too. This advice comes from Dr. K. M. Weinland, Purdue university extension veterinarian. In the climate that includes most of Indiana, 9 changes from winter into spring and summer are most dramatic, he points out. Thus, these have an influence on the health and well being of companion animals. As days become warmer, dogs and cats that have been housed or confined during the winter want to be outdoors more. Theyjare also inclined to roam away from the premises, if not tied or penned. Consequently, your pet may have more opportunity to come into contact with wild animals which also become more active in the spring, says Weinland. Since there is still a reservoir of rabies in wild animal life in much of the United States, pet ownershould make sure their pet is vaccinated against rabies. , When taking your animal for its annual rabies shot, have the veterinarian check for other health aspects of your pet — such as distemper immunization and parasite infestation.

County students at Manchester are teaching

NORTH MANCHESTER — Ninety-four Manchester college seniors recently began the final step in their preparation for a teaching career — student teaching, in schools scattered across Indiana and Ohio. In the group are 30 students who’ll become certified to teach in elementary schools and 64 preparing for secondary school work. From this county are the following: Claypool — Janet Schoonover, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul E. Wiard of r 1, is student teaching in grade two at the Washington elementary school in Warsaw under Mrs. Phyllis Faudree. Janet is a graduate of Mentone high school. North Webster — Kenneth Rowe, son of Mr. and Mrs. James R. Rowe of r 1, is student teaching in physical education and health at Marshall Memorial school in Columbia City under Roy Kilby. Kenneth is a graduate of University high school. Silver Lake — Wilma Howard, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Howard of r 2, is teaching World and U.S. history at Warsaw junior high school under Jeff Plank. Wilma is a graduate of Warsaw high school.

Follow the rules for a workable budget

WEST LAFAYETTE — There’s no magical potion to keep your budget on the right track. But there is something that can help. “If you follow a few rules for planning a budget, you’ll be more likely to follow your spending plan,” says Dr. Jan Armstrong, consumer marketing specialist at Purdue university. Dr. Armstrong lists the six commandments for a stick-to-able budget: A budget must be realistic. A budget should not cut costs too much. A budget should be a family affair. A budget should include personal allowances for each family member. A budget should encourage you to keep track of money you spend. A budget should allow you to treat your savings as a fixed expense. “The first guideline — that a budget be realistic — is a must,” the specialist says. “If the budget fits your family and what your family does, the budget is easier to follow. But if the budget is designed to meet some ideal standard of another family, it’s doomed to fail. “The realists budgeter will not cut costs too severely,” the specialist continues. “Cutting costs too much will make a budget impossible to live with.” Dr. Armstrong suggests that your budget allow for little expenses such as gifts, office social funds, newspapers, and so forth. Such expenses might be listed under a miscellaneous category. Making budgeting a family affair —the third planning rule — is also vital to your budget’s success, she says. When family members cooperate and work together to plan the budget, everyone is more likely to try to follow the spending plan. “Children who understand family finances are less likely to make excessive demands for money,” Dr. Armstrong explains. “That’s a big plus for allowing children to be involved in budget decisions.” By allowing for personal allowances for each family member, a budget seems less threatening, the specialist explains the importance of the fourth planning rule. When each family member has money to use as desired, no one has to feel “wallet-tied” by the budget. “Before setting the amount of money to be included in a personal allowance, decide what the money is to cover,” Dr. Armstrong advises. “The older a child is, the more responsibility he should be able to handle with his own allowance.” The fifth planning rule is another budget must, the specialist adds. “You must keep track of how you spend your money,” she says. “Otherwise, a budget won’t make much sense.” Keeping spending records doesn’t have to be complicated, the specialist quickly adds. In fact, she suggests you make your record-keeping system as simple as possible. “The simpler the records, the more likely you are to keep them up to date,” Dr. Armstrong reasons. “No one particularly enjoys tedious bookkeeping.” Every budget, the consumer marketing specialist says, should incaporate the final rule — that savings be a fixed expense. “If you treat savings as an expense

Syracuse — Darlene Oliver, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edsel Rice of r 2, who is student teaching in physical education and health at Wawasee high school under Mrs. Marcia Carpenter and Tom Rankin. Darlene is a graduate of Syracuse high school. And, Ann Rush, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul A. Rush, U. S. history and political science under Robert Riley at North Wood high school. She is a graduate of Wawasee high school. Warsaw — Steven Campbell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Campbell of r 8, who is teaching physical education and health and U. S. history at Akron junior, senior high school under David Creighton and Norman Metzger. He is a graduate of Warsaw high school.

you must pay every month, saving will become a habit,” she says. “Pay yourself first thing every month. Be as committed to your savings account as you are to your landlord, your power company, or your phone company.” Indiana state income taxtaxable income Perhaps the best way to examine your Indiana Income Tax is to compare it with the Federal Income Tax. As in your Federal return, you begin your Indiana return with your total income. Your total income, according to the Federal Code, is made up of wages and salaries, dividends after exclusion, interest, selfemployment profit or loss, farm income or loss, taxable pensions, rent, partnership income or loss, miscellaneous income, and capital gains and losses; in other words, everything taxable under the Federal Code. Generally, all income of Indiana residents is subject to tax regardless of where it is earned. Since your total Federal Income is the starting point fa your Indiana Income Tax, and since your Federal Income Tax Return provides the basis for the other tax situations on your Indiana State Income Tax, it becomes obvious that you should prepare your Federal Tax Return first, and then use it as a guide to prepare your Federal Tax Return first, and then use it as a guide to prepare your Indiana State Income Tax Return. There are several additions and subtractions to be considered on your Indiana return (these will be covered in future articles), and then your exemptions are considered. Exemptions represent a basic difference between the Indiana and the Federal Code. The 1972 Federal Exemption is $750, while Indiana allows you oily SSOO for each exemption claimed. Indiana however allows you an additional special exemption for income in excess of SSOO, and the spouse of the taxpayer is also allowed this additional exemption. The amount of the Indiana Special Income Exemption can be as much as SSOO each for the taxpayer and spouse, dependent on the amount of income reported. On income of less than SSOO there is no special exemption allowed. The exemption will be the amount of income over SSOO but less than SI,OOO when the adjusted gross income reported falls between these two figures. Finally SSOO will be allowed as a special income exemption when the adjusted gross income reported to the state is in excess of SI,OOO. This special income exemption applies to the taxpayers spouse on a joint return just as it does when filing a separate return. The number of exemptions you claim on your Indiana return should be the same as the number you claim on your Federal Return, one of the reasons for preparing your Federal Return first, as pointed out above. In the final analysis, we find that there is a definite similarity between the Indiana Tax Code and the Federal Code, in that the Federal Tax is a graduated tax based on taxable income and filing status, as is the Indiana Tax.

Army language program includes Mandarin Chinese Signs of the times: the army’s language program now includes Mandarin Chinese! Right now there are openings fa* both male and female high school graduates who have language aptitudes and are “highly motivated”, according to army representative SSG Reynolds at the Warsaw army recruiting station at 611 S. Buffalo St. Enlistees, who will study from 32 to 47 weeks at the defense language institute, Monterey, Calif., can also choose Russian, German, Czechoslovakian, Polish, Bulgarian, French, Spanish, Korean or Vietnamese. Applicants must have clean backgrounds—no drug abuse, no criminal record — added Sgt. Reynolds, because assignments will be with the army security agency. ASA’s mission is the security of the national defense, at home and abroad. Its high calibre training in communications — language and electronics — can lead to remunerative positons in civilian employment later, the army representative pointed out. Enlistment for the army’s language program is for four years because of the year-long (reparation for actual assignment. More information on this army option may be obtained by telephoning the Warsaw office. Tomato still no. 1 garden vegetable WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — There’s no question about it. The tomato continues to be the nation’s most popular home garden vegetable. A versatile cooking vegetable, it can be baked, stewed, fried, juiced and pickled. Or, it can be used in soups, salads and on those famous Italian dishes. And what would a hamburger or hot dog be without catsup, another tomato by-product? Home gardeners should plant their tomatoes in full sun, reminds John A. Wat, Purdue university extension home environment horticulturist. Plants grown in deep shade will produce only foliage. Tomatoes, however, will grow in many different soil types. A deep, loamy, well-drained soil is ideal. Tomatoes also grow best in a slightly acid soil, PH 6.2 — 6.8. In garden areas, thoroughly prepare the soil. If soil nutrition is low, apply two to three pounds of a complete fertilizer per 100 square feet of bed area. Excessive nitrogen fertilizer tends to force plants to produce too much foliage and little fruit, warns Wott. Most home gardeners prefer to start with transplants, available in community flats (usually in large numbers) or in individual containers. Those in individual containers are transplanted with the least amount of shock, says Wott, and usually become established quicker. Where the root system is disturbed entirely in the planting operation, establishment takes longer. e Plants grown in peat pots or clay pots may cost slightly more, but they are usually worth it, the horticulturist adds. In selection, look for plants which are wider than they are tall. Also select those with a dark green color and straight, sturdy stems the size of a lead pencil. Leaves should be fully expanded and free of insects and diseases. The plant should not yet be in bloom. Some plant suppliers are now potting single plants and having them available with ripening fruit already on the plant. Be sure to select a tomato type that suits your individual needs, cautions Wott. And always buy the wilt-resistant varieties. For detailed information on growing tomatoes, ask for cooperative extension service publication, HO-26, at your county extension office or write to mailing room, AGAD building, Purdue university, West Lafayette, Ind. 47907.
