No, this is nothing new. It has j been being done since 1918. Most counties are reporting these surveys ’ for practically all their farms. This ' is probably news to non-farm owners. The Federal Farm Census was se cured from farm operators (mostly tenants). Our county farm survey is asked of the owners. Which of three probably affords the best in l forma tiqnV More than 200,000 farm owners made reports for each of 1929, 1930 J and 1981. These showed acreages . tfjat are amazingly good. The cost ’ of these surveys is extremely little due to the Commissioners using the I tax listing machinery. While con -1 siderable inconvenience is experienced 1 by those “waiting” to list their tax -1 ables, yet the need and value of thhi \ farm “inventory" is too great to the farming interests to be overlooked. > Fanners should observe the follow ing: ’ (1) List your taxes early. 1 (2) Be prepared to report each crop acreage and numbers of mature livestock. / (3) Go preparted to “wait” your turn, if you go late in the day or on Saturday*-- ~ i . dir, U.

Holt i is a man appearing to be about 40 1 years of age.. * He was arrested by 1 "Deputy Sheriff Marion Brown and i brouglitto jail Saturday morning, i The shooting is said to have occur- i red about 12 o’clock Friday night. The entire upper part of the woman’s head was completely blown away by the load of shot from a shot gun, and powder burns Indicate that the gun wus at close range, Fol lowing the lodging of Holt in jail, Sheriff Burnette, accompanied by Jerry Rice and Lee Bryan, went to the place where she shooting took place, to investjgart, and our infor mation is from the Sheriff and the other two men. They found the wo man tyliig in she ted just as she had i been shot. Neither eye nor ear was shot off but practically all the upper part of the head above the eyes and ears had been blown away aud spat tered against the bed pillows and clothes. It was said that the young est child, about 15 months old, was in the bed with Holt, aud his wife. 4*he three othertnhHdmi, oldest 9 years, Were sleeping in the opposite side of the room. The house was a sawmill camp about a half a mile above the Roaring Fork school house and was very near other log camps. Holt claims the shooting was accidental. He says that he heard a noise at the window near the bed and got up and in getting his gun, it went of!, accidentally kill ing the woman. " {e-anderstand the oldest child says that “Harrison” (the name the boy calls his daddy) •shot his mother. He says that “Harrison” first went out of the house and then cane back into the house and shot the woman. Reports are to the effect that the man and his wife had had some trouble before and that he had recently choked her, leaving the impriut of his fingers , about her throat. When the Sheriff arrived, the brother of the dead wo man was there, a Mr. Codgill, and he exhibited to the officers the youngest child with splotches of blood about his face. He had taken into his care the four children. According tp the neighbors, Holt wte not a. drinking man, aind it is not believed He had been drinking at the time of the shotting.—Marshall News-Record.

The Legislature that will be select ed at the primaries to be held this year will be the most important th§t has convened in North Carolina in a generation. Tax-policies of North Carolina will be fixed by that body for weal or woe for years to come. When this body meets tt willface a deficit in the State’s revenue vari ously estimated from $5,000,000 to i $10,000,000, a thing unparalleled in j the past. This deficit must be met 1 and the State’s budget balanced for the next biennium and a repetition j of this situation forever inadeimpos- ! sible. At the same time the McLean law must be made an actuality and if humanly possible other taxes on land must he reduced. This will add to the difficulties of the situation. When the 15 cant tax now levied for school purposes is'taken from the land this will necessitate the raising of least $4,000,000 additional revenue each year. In short, the situation is as fol lows: Nprtli Carolina is iii a serious plight. We are running behind at the rate of $3,000,(100 t 654,000,000 each year and when the additional #4 ,000,000 arising through the abo lition of the 15 cefit school tax is added, we will have? at the very least, $7,000,000 of new money that [ must be raised if the State is to pre . serve its credit atid continue to fuuc , tion. Unless this money is raised by t taxation of some kind it means the . loss of the State’s credit jaiid the , ruin of the school system * that we . have so laboriously built up for the . past 30 years. Be sure that the men you send to the Legislature are willing to accom plish these things and that you send men who are incorruptible, inen who will stand steadfast and men who can stand temptation inallitsforjns. ‘Every, man wtio is a candidate for the Legislature should be required to declare himself op these matters. If he refuses he is unworthy of your support. No man should be sent be cause he is a good fellow. Find out whether he stands for the schools, for a selected commodity tax or for “getting the money where the money is,” or both, or '‘other sources.” If he does not agree with sound views on these matters send a man who does.—News and Observer. - SWISS.
