Survey Shows Rural
Homes Better For
Rearing Of Children
The rural home provides a better
atmosphere for the rearing of chil
dren than does the city home, a re
cent survey shows. This, was revealed
in a personal statement made by Dr.
T. T. Swearingen, director of adult
work and family life of the Interna
tional Council of Religious Education
and secretary of an interfaith com
mittee planning the observance of Na
tional Family Week, May 5-12,
throughout the United States and
Canada.
"Extensive study by experts in so
ciology indicates that there are im
portant differences between rural and
urban homes. These include better
training, happier home life, and less
smoking and drinking among rural
girls," he declared.
Pointing out that men, women and
children need the strength and emo
tional support1" which comes from
good homeaVprf Swearingen main
tained that "in family life which
draws upon the values of true religion
is to be found the only enduring basis
for a better world."
"The home is the primary unit of
life," he stated. "It becomes the pri
mary unit in a constructive society
only as religious values become the
heart of family relations and the ba
sis of individual attitudes and con
duct. Churches are built on sound
family life, and the family is never
truly sound without the spiritual re
sources of the religion which the
churches teach."
In National Family Week the three
major faiths seek to strengthen the
spiritual foundations of the home, Dr.
Swearingen averred. Churches and
synagogues will feature the signifi
cance of religion in the family
through sermons, worship, classes
and special programs.
Over Is
Loaned To Veterans
Loans totalling more than $8,000,
000 have been obtained by North
Carolina veterans of World War II
under the Servicemen's Readjustment
Act of 1944, according to Charles H.
Ball, loan guarantee officer of the
Veterans Administration Regional of
fice in Winston-Salem.
The total amount of indebtedness
involved in 2,039 loans approved up I
to last Saturday, Ball said, was $8,
137,650, with the government's guar
anty aggregating $3,701,342.
Applications for loans to date
numbered 2,143, with ninety-one
withdrawn, ninety disapproved by the
VA and 193 pending.
Homes were the objectives of the
vast majority of veterans taking ad

SOIL CONSERVATION NOTES
Usually the edges of fields border
ing woodland are unproductive due to
root competition from trees. A strip I
oi snrun lespedeza or parallel strips I
of shrub and sericea lespedeza along!
this border will keep bushes and briers
from growing next to the crops and
at the same time favor the develop
ment of desirable species of wildlife.
Shrub lespedeza will provide excellent
food and good cover for quail.
The following Perquimans County
farmers are seeding some wildlife
borders this spring: L. A. Smith, W.
Herbert Winslow, Floyd Matthews,
A. H. Edwards, W. S. Evans, and
Eugene Felton. The seed for these
wildlife borders are being furnished
by the Albemarle Soil Conservation
District and the'North Carolina De
partment of Conservation and Devel-1
opment.
Nixon Hollowell blew a ditch ap
proximately :i()0 feet long with dyna
mite connecting his lead ditch with a
Bear Swamp canal.
The Albemarle Soil Conservation
District assisted Mr. Hollowell in
constructing his ditch by making a
profile of land through which ditch
was to run and by helping him set
the dynamite.
On May 25th approximately forty thousand voters will go to the polls to cast their
ballots for a candidate to represent them in the mils of Congress. We, the voters,
must consider the citizenship of our respective counties, which exceeds two hundred
thousand. The question arises, shall we send a representative of the people or A
MACHINE PICKED CANDIDATE, who is already over-burdened with political ob
ligations. ROBERT LEE HUMBER, the people's candidate, is a man that can bring honor not
only to his District, but to the State and Nation. He is recognized statewide, nation
ally and internationally as one of the foremost leaders of efficiency in governmen
tal affairs. He has the knowledge to induce leaders to respect his judgment and sup
port his ideas with confidence be it farming or what not. Few Districts, or even
states, rarely have the opportunity that we have today, to send such a representa
tive to Congress.

Money that North Carolina farm
ers received from sale of their 1945
products totaled 637,848,000, the
Federal-State Crop Reporting Service
in the State Agriculture Department
finds. This is an increase of five per
cent over the $609,312,000 received
during 1944.
Receipts from the sale of livestock
and livestock products returned to
farmers $99,884,000 or almost the
same as in 1944. The increase in total
receipts to Tar Heel farmers was
brought about by the advance in crop
sales, which last year brought in
$537,964,000 compared to $509,565,000
the previous year.
Of the total crop sales in North
Carolina, tobacco alone returned
$$378,897,00074 per cent of the
value of crops sold or 69 per cent of
the farm income from marketings
of all kinds. While the cash income
from tobacco increased by $61,000,000
last year, the receipts from cotton and
cottonseed sales decreased $32,427,000
to a total of $51,695,000.
Peanuts are the State's third most
important cash crop with $23,266,000
being received from this crop last
year. Truck crops and Irish potatoes
are next in importance.
According to Russell P. Handy, ag
riculture statistician with the depart
ment, total cash receipts from farm
marketings in the United States dur
ing 1945 total $20,709,939,000, which
was only two per cent more than in
1944. -
"North Carolina continues te rank
third in the nation in farm income
from crop sales," said Handy. It is
exceeded only by California and Tex
as. For total farm Income, however,
