               The issue for decision is whether petitioner is entitled to            
          deduct claimed losses reported on Schedule F, Profit or Loss from           
          Farming, from his horse activity for the years in issue.                    
          Petitioner presented neither evidence nor argument concerning the           
          addition to tax and is thus deemed to have conceded that issue.

          the Internal Revenue Code in effect for the years in issue, and
