Farm Income Estimated To Be
90-95 Million More Than 1959
Cash receipts from marketing
#t agricultural commodities in
North Carolina this year may
total some 90 to 95 million dol
lars more than the 968 million
dollars realized in 1959, accord
ing to a statement released by
the North Carolina Crop Report
ing Service. A substantially
larger crop of tobacco, being
marketed at increased prices,
may gross some 85 to 90 mil
lion more than last year, while
marketing of livestock and live
stock products during the first
seven months of 1960 were at an
accelerated rate, pointing to an
annual return from these com
modities approximately 8 mil
lion dollars higher than last
year.
Aside from tobacco and the
livestock items, increased re
turns from some of the farm
products are likely to be more
than offset by smaller returns
from other products.
The October 1 forecast of 827
million pounds of flue-cured to
bacco would exceed last year’.'
production by approximately 12 /
million pounds. With a com
paratively large percentage o‘
the crop already marketed pres

ent indications are that receipts
from sales of flue-cured tobac
co are likely to approximate 495
million dollars, compared with
407 million realized in 1959.
Although record production of
corn and soybeans is in pros
pect, and production of peanuts
is expected to run substantially
above last year, the bulk of
these crops is still to be mar
keted. However, if presen
price relationship continues
through the marketing season
income from sales of corn ma;
exceed last year by some 3 ii
5 million dollars, while return,
from peanuts and soybeans each
should add 2 to 3 million dollar,
to the gross.
On the other hand, receipts
from sales of this year’s smalle
cotton and cottonseed crops ma;.
fall some 8 to 10 million dollar
jeiow last year and the com
jaratively light crops of sma
grains may yield 2 to 3 millio
ess. Receipts from potatoe:
>weet potatoes and commercu
egetables are also likely to b
.mailer than last year.
Receipts from sales of live
dock an dlivestock product
hrough July of 1960 total abou
58 million dollars, or 2.7 per
ent above receipts during th
;ame period in 1959. Assuming
this relationship continuesj
throughout 1960, cash receipts j
from sales of livestock and live
stock products this year may
equal about 305 million dollars,
compared with 297 million dol
lars in 1959.
To set a lofty example is the
richest bequest a man can leave
behind him.

Hurricane Donna
Reduces Pecan Crop
Production of pecans in North
Carolina is estimated at 1,350,-
000 pounds as of October 1 and
is sharply below the forecast
of a month earlier, according to
the North Carolina Crop Report
ing Service. Os the indicated
total production an estimated ],-
150,000 pounds is expected from
unproved varieties and 200,000
pounds will come from wild
or seedling varieties.
Loss of pecans was very heavy
over most of the Coastal Plains
where a very large percentage
of the North Carolina crop is
produced. Many producers who
had anticipated unusually good
yields of pecans now report
complete or near complete fail
ure caused by Hurricane Donna.
The hurricane of September 11
struck before any of the pe
cans had matured; therefore, no
salvage is possible.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
The practical significance for
today of Christ Jesus’ victory
over death will be brought out
at Christian Science churches
Sunday in the Lesson-Sermon
entitled “Probation After
Death.”
Scriptural readings will in
clude the following: ‘‘Now when
Jesus was risen early the first
day of the week, he appeared
first to Mary Magdalene, out of
whom he had cast seven devils
. . . Afterward he appeared un
to the eleven as they sat at
meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of
heart, because believed not,
them whicK had seen him after j
he was risen” (Mark 16:9, 14).
From “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” by
Mary Baker. Eddy this will be
read (46:20-24): “Jesus’ un
changed physical condition after
what seemed to be death was
followed by his exaltation
above all material conditions:
and this exaltation explained his
ascension, and revealed unmis
takably a probationary and pro
gressive state beyond the
grave.”

est personal needs. Then prayer
takes on a deeper meaning; it is
a communion wilu
the Friend above all friends.
Morality is not confinement
within a set of negatives; it is
release into the freedom of mag
nificent imperatives. When we
turn to God life becomes a high
adventure shared with the Lord
of life.
Secondly, we find the match
less incentive for integrity. How
many of us have heard someone
explain a decision he has made
rt great cost by saying, “Well,
i have to live with myself’?
Jesire for self-approval does
provide the impetus for noble
thought and action. But, might
ier by far, is awareness that all
our thoughts and decisions,
hopes and ambitions, plans and
actions, are observed by a heav
enly Father, a God who loves
and trusts us to the utmost.
How often have we, maybe
touring an ancient church, ex
claimed at the care and craft -
manship lavished thereon. The
old craftmen, in building a
house of God, took pride in their
work, even to the perfecting of
minute details which would not
normally be observed at a cas
ual glance. One cannot help but
get the feeling these builders
were very conscious of God’s
all-seeing eye, and put out an
especial effort to give of their
best, whether it was in sight
or not. So should it be with
our lives, under God’s scrutiny.
And thirdly, in responding
wholeheartedly to religion, we
have a foundation for our best

hope*. Do we fear th# future?
We can be of good chew. We
know that God will be there.
We cannot Know what th# fu
ture may bring, but we do know!
that we cannot drift beyond
God’s love and care. Are we
pessimistic concerning the pres
ent international situation Do
we think there is no hope for
peace because we cannot reach
the people who are behind the
iron or bamboo curtains? We
need have no fear, for God is
there also. Because God is
everywhere, justice, freedom and
reace have a voice no * censor
ship can silence, no walls shut
out. He has great and invisible
battalions on the march.
