try Impri’taBt Factor
In This State*
The b»ck-rard poultT7-*row-
Inx Indnstry in North Carolina
has always been an important
factor In poultry growing in this
state amd should be expanded
during the present period, in the
opinion of C. F. Parrish, poultry
, extension specialist at State col
lege.
As a reason for this sugges
tion, Parrish says back-yard
poultry keeping is affected less
by changing economic conditions
than any other productive enter
prise. In times of high prices,
.great numbers of persons keep
fowls as a means of reducing the
cost of living. In times of de
pression. the back-yard flock
may play an importaiU_part in
the struggle to keep going on a
reduced income. Then, loo,
fowls are the most adaptable of
all domestic animals and may be j
kept successfully under a wide |
range of conditions. I

.Increased 'revenne

for rejecting the ad valoremi tax.
i Both the property reduction
clause and the clause taxing for

by the house .
In calling for property revalua
tion, the senate struck out all the
counties, that had been exempted
by the house, thereby making
the measure uniformly state
wide. The vote for revaluation
was 30 to 14.
Revenue from foreign stocks
income taxes, now fixed at six
per cent, will yield an estimated

to the effect that at the coming
meeting of the directors of this
ar institution the latter part of this
charged I tfiOfith' nfonnd 31-d00,000 will
' he distributed to the beneficiary
causes and institutions of the
Endowment. The Charlotte Ob
server .says:
Not only colleges, but orphan
ages and hospitals, the latter es
pecially hard pressed during
these stringent days, will receive
material funds from this dis
bursement.
The Duke Endowment has
been the saving hand that has
stood by the great work of hos
pitalization in the Carolinas dur
ing these past few years and
maintained faculties that the in
digent sick might have the bene
fit of good modern hospital care
and attention.
Since 1924 when the benefits
of this Endowment were first
available for hospitals and when
there were in the territory serv
ed only 4 7 hospitals averaging
approximately .600 patients per
day. the number of non-profit
general hospitals has doubled,
from 47 to 94, and these 94 hos
pitals were averaging in 1932
over 1,800 free patients per day,
an increase of 1,300 over the
eight-year period. Stated in an
other way, these hospitals made
application to the hospital sec
tion at the end of 1932 (or ap
proximately 1,800 per day for as
many free patients or a total of
$650,000 (or the year—an aver
age of over 36,900 per hospital.
The average free patient slays
in the hospital approximately^ 14
da.vs. This means that about 47,-
000 patients will receive free
treatment in these 94 hospitals
during 1932, or an average of
.500 free patients per hospital,
and tlie Duke Endowment will
he asked to contribute approxi
mately 314 (31 per day for 14
days) toward the cost of caring
for each of these 47.000 pa
tients.
Despite the tact that in 1932
there were 1,300 more free pa
tients per day in non-profit gen
eral hospitals in the Carolinas
than in 1924. the ratio to popu
lation of patients unable to pa.v
in all general hospitals is still
far below the average for the
United States. There are less
than 2,000 free patients every day
in the year in all general hos
pitals in the Carolinas, or ap
proximately one patient for every
2,500 people, but in the United
States as a whole there Is one
free patient out of every 1.200
persons occupying a bed in a
general hospital. In other words,
to get near the ratio of free pa
tients In general hospitals'In the
nation, it would he necessary in
the Carolinas to more’ than dou
ble the number occupying beds
in general hospitals.
In 1924, less than three out of
every ten patients in non-profit
general hospitals were unable to
pay for their care and treatment!
