II North Carolina Farms Have $656 Less Income ThanNational Average Should we venture to yell from the housetops that North Caro lina ranked 40th among the 48 states in gross farm income for 1940, perhaps most of our hearers would say: "Well, what of it?" Should we r continue with our yelling, and say that North Caro lina farms had an average in come of ?1,043 during 1940, our listeners might twist and turn and reply: "Wish I had that much." Continuing with yelling, it would be good advertising for Cal ifornia to shout that out in sunny California the average farmer had an income of 5,075, or more than $4,000 than Tar Heel farmers. That would hurt. But when we came to the point and laid great emphasis upon the fact that North Carolina was far ahead of Mississppi with an aver age income of $641, right then and there the chests of our hearers would swell up and the owners would say: "Sure," old North Caro lina is a good farm state." And upon informing our hear ers that the average farmer in the United States had an income of $1,699, or almost the price of a new car more than Tarteelia farmers, we would expect the an swer, in unison from the crowd: "What about it.

' Such rates of increase, applied to a whole lot of items of merchan dise, naturally sends the gross cost of living skyhooting "nto the air. Retailers are the boys I come principally into contact with, and the ones I know assure me that they're not the group who scoop in the nickels and dimes. Their .tnrv ia that the extra tax boosts are wished into prices higher up, by initial producers or wholesaling middlemen, they emply. As to that, I don't know, and doubtless it would take a congressional investi gation, or some such tning, to nna out.

' Even Hens Arc Asked To Give Uncle Sam Aid Three billion 700 dozen eggs are expected from American hens in 1942 to provide an adequate supply for home needs and for the English This increase of llper cent over the expected 1941 production Has been called for by the government because of the vital part eggs play in the nation s diet. a F. Parrish, of State College, said that during the next six to eight months, there will be a spe cial need for good feeding and care to get increased production from each hen, After that time, greatly increased numbers of pul lets will come into production. The number of layers on farms at the beginning of 1942 is expected to be 10 per cent greater than dur ing the early part oi this year. North Carolina has been called on for an 11 per cent increase, ex actly the same as the national av erage. This year state hens will probably lay 58,667,400 dozen. This is one time, Parrish pointed out, when farmers should really use all their skill in getting more eggs from their hens. Careful feeding and management, essentials of any good poultry program at any, time, should be brought into use by everyone during this emer gency. , Favorabble egg prices, together with the government pledge to put a floor under prices, provide a strong incentive to boost production.
