          (decedent) held one-third of the stock of JFI and 12 percent of             
          the stock of FNBW.                                                          
               Unless otherwise noted, all section references are to the              
          Internal Revenue Code in effect as of the date of decedent’s                
          death, and all Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of                
          Practice and Procedure.                                                     
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.  We           
          incorporate by this reference the stipulation of facts, the                 
          supplemental stipulation of facts, and the attached exhibits.  At           
          the time of filing the petition, coexecutor Frederic L. Foill II            
          resided in Waverly, Ohio, and the estate of decedent was                    
          administered in Pike County, Ohio.  The parties have stipulated             
          that the estate had a Waverly, Ohio, address at the time the                
          petition was filed.                                                         
          JFI                                                                         
               JFI was an Ohio corporation that operated a farm in Pike               
          County, Ohio, that had been in decedent’s family for many years.            
          JFI was an S corporation within the meaning of section 1361(a).             
          Pike County is a rural, primarily agricultural county with low              
          economic growth.  In 1942, decedent and her two sisters each
