\ \s VOL. XXXVUf, NO. 3S North Carolina Not Yet Self-Sustainingi1 ' . . . I Ccincnmioner Graham Has Some-; thing to Say About Shipping Food Out of State j j i ? Before North (Carolina makes any\ effort to provide for the rest of the j world, it should first become, as nearly as possible, a self-supporting:| commonwealth, in the opinion ofj William A. Graham, commissioner of: agriculture. Com mission er Graham sees no 1 reason why apples, dairy products j and potatoes, as well as chickens and ? egrgs. should b" shipped from the * middle and western counties in safte ficii nt quantity to supply the eastern 5 demand, before these products are shipped out of the state. There is no apparent reason, also 1 why early fruits and vegetables of ) | eastern :ection> should not he >hip- 1 ped directly to the nuudle and western counties until the markets there'1 f.Lii ... yr?- i uny suppnoa at cjooil prices. ? After thatj any surplus could bo x I sent to the nearest ar.d besl market:.i :I the .-talc. 1 "M\ ambition for the farmers of * North Carolina is thai a great deal of the mortgaged mdebtebheis shall * be liquidated or. at (east, that a v. oil manured plan shall be laid by v which liquidation can %be brought ' about at an early date, the comniis- J hionev declared. He pointed out that the state has 1 been producing cotton and tobacco f year after year and at the same time, apparently going deeper into * debt. He urged placing more en?- k priusis on diversification for a few j I wars, growing at home some of the 5 things purchased abroad for use in * Running North Carolina farms. fp~ ' V We are growing a good deal of rpro," he says. "Lei. us grow more corn. Let us more than double our cat crop and multiply our soybean 1 and pea crop by at least two. Then 1 we will have sufficient corn, oats 1 and hay to .feed our livestock. This * lone, let us' keep at home some of ' Ihe potatoes we are shipping north ' and feed their, to ourselves and our labor."; 1 | . THE STATE HIGHWAY ! SYSTEM AND ITS FINANCING , i North Carolines highway system ] | and its financing arc pn firm and 1 J fine basis-, according to u statceinent just given out by W. C. Wilkinson of ) : -Charlotte, highway commissioner for , the sixth district. The revenues from gasoline and automobile license inxes j collected in the current fiscal year | will exceed the needs of the state f highway commission for mointen- ( ance pu roses hv a million -dollars or more, according to his estimate. j The revenues foi the year will exceed fifteen million dollars at the j present rate, and will reach an a it- , |i gregate sum hitherto unattained. " rj During the five years of tile high- j , way com mist ion's activities an ag- j , gregate of $!1T,789.U1 has hcen ex-K ponded in road construction. This j information, said Mr. Wilkinson, j comes from records >11 the office of j State Chairman Frank Page, of the; state highway commission. Of that - J voial nearly twenty million- has been expended in the sixth or Char-; < lotte district. The largest amount J: epxended in any of the districts of | ; the si ate was that of the first district i embracing the southwestern counties ; where the topographical difficulties to be overcome were greatest and ' the need of highways greatest. 'The sixth district ranked secriod in the , amount expended in construction. , In the fiscal year beginning July 1, 3 929, the slate will begin paying off bond.-, issued for highway construction purposes before the present , otari for f>i#? of moro vunmir.i . x - - 1 issues wan adopted, and the funds , for that purpose will be taken from gasoline aiul license tax collections. Air. Wilktus made this optimistic statement in this connection: "The present volume of collections assures the highway conimist ,v sidn that it will have ample funds for paying off these bonds, for maintaining existing roads and for other ; specific purposes and still leave some surplus available for new construction." Mr. VViikins frankly pointed out I that the greater part of the state's ; w - ,) ....... i 1....... \ f luau-uunuui^ au;w . xscvo utcn accomplished, and a period of relative inactivity will continue at least several year.-. Actually the commission will have much work in progress at all times, said Mr. Wilkinson, in -dosing his review of the present status and his forecast for the ensuing years.?Greensboro Record.
