Little River Philosopher Rails at Prices and Fishing Woes
The Little River Philosopher on his Johnson grass farm in Marlow notes falling cattle and farm prices tied to a broader economic squeeze.

IRS outlines rules on nontaxable home sale gains
The Internal Revenue Service explains that gains from selling a principal residence in 1952 may be non taxable if a new home is purchased within one year and used as the principal residence within one year of the sale. If a new home is built, construction must start within one year and be completed within 18 months to qualify. The sale and profit must still be reported on the tax return.
