I principles which g o towards
forming a unity of the whole and
from which no diwiation can be
'made without marring the re-
j suit. Taste may be possessed in
I a greater or less degree but with-
: out reference to principles, it
will fail to create a design of
harmonious proportions or asso
ciation.
It is to be regretted that so lit
tle attention is given to the sub
ject of principle and arrange
ment of tree, shrub, flower and
path, as a whole, in the decora
tion of our homes.
Thousands on thousands of
dollars are yearly expended in
the creation of new places that
have to be soon remodeled be
cause of the apparent want of
congeniality and harmony neces
sary for an effective whole.
It is not expected that every
man can be a landscapist but he
should have sufficient love for
his home to inducehim to study
the principles of art so as to be
able to appreciate the reasons
for arrangements of designs.
A spirit of independence, a
oride and love for the creation
of one’s own, shou’d imbue every
citizen to the improvement of
h’s surroundings by harmonious
planting of his home grounds.
Were this the condition of
things, the beauty of new home
surroundings would lie greatly
mproved, and exhibit most grat
'fying results in a period of four
ir five years.

FARMER’S CITY ITUENriS
Do fanners get a fair shake
when it comes to returns from
their products? Six out of every
ten folks from Minnesota don’t
think so.
Now, Minnesota is a long way
off. And maybe what the folks
out there think about farmers
doesn’t seem too important as
far as our North Carolina rural
folks are concerned. On the other
hand, perhaps the Minnesota
viewpoint could have some appli
cation here.
In a statewide survey, the Min
neapolis Star and Tribune re
ported' that 62 per cent of those
questioned feel that U.S, farmers
are short-changed on income
from the crops they produce.
Farm residents, of course,
were much stronger in this feel
ing. Some 92 per cent of the farm
people surveyed felt their re
turns were less than they shou'd
be.
TTiose results were interesting.
But far more interesting were
the results when the people ex
plained their answers.
The greatest percentage of
those polled-43 per cent said
that the middleman takes too
r.uch, or that there are too many
middlemen.
Seventeen per cent said that
the farmer is suffering from lack
of organization, bargaining po
wer, and the means to control
prices.
Twelve per cent were of the
opinion that the cost of farm op
erations was too high in relation
to the return on oroducts.
Twelve per cent said the trou
ble was overproduction and pro
duct waste.
Five per clent -lamed the f.ar
I mer’s economic plight on govern-
i rent regulations and too much
I government controls,
i Two per cent said the farmer
is hit by too many imports, eight
I per cent said they didn’t know
I why the farmer’s inexome was too
I low, and nineteen per cent gave
j a variety of other reasons.
I Some persons polled gave more
I than one of the above reasons
so that the percentages, if added,
will bring a total of 113 per cent
What can we draw from this
noli? Certainly we can’t assume
that identical results would be
unearthed were such a survey to
be conducted in North Carolina.
No doubt, though, the results
would be similar.
Perhaps then, the farmer has
I more allies than he might sus-
I pect. Certainly he is not sharing
t equitably in the returns from his
labor and talents. Others seem
to realize this.
'Die farmer, viewing this fact
from his ever-thinning ranks,
must take comfort in the know
ledge that he has some friends
in the city.
