Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Synopsis of Decisions Under the Confederate Tax Law
Butchers. - If a butcher carries on the business of a cattle broker he shall register as such, and pay the taxes imposed on cattle brokers. The two are separate and distinct, and cannot be conducted under the same registration. The one is to butcher and sell, the Specific tax being $50, and tax on sales one per cent. While in the other case the tax on sales is 2 1-9 per cent. A farmer who may kill and sell the ?esh of one, two, or three beeves, or who may kill and sell one occasionally, and who does not follow the business of offering the ?esh for sale in Open market or elsewhere regularly, is not a butcher within the meaning of the act. Yet he will be required to pay a tax on the income derived from such sales under section twelve, tax act.
