I PAGE SIX DAIRY COWS Wfil PAY GOOD PROFIT Will Fit In With A System Of Good Farming John Arey Says WILL NOT INTERFERE RALEIGH, May 29.?A good dairy cow when properly fed on a crop farm will return about $200 a year in milk and manure produced, and about $137 a year if butterfat is produced for a creamery. "Contrary to the general impression, the dairy cow will fit in with a system of crop farming," said John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at State college in a radio address from Station WPTF on May 22. "Many farmers who grow cotton and tobacco as cash crops are finding that there is land and labor adapted to supplementary dairying. But the man who goes into the dairy business one year and out the next, according as the prices of cotton and tobacco vary, will never make a dairyman and is doomed to failure before he starts. The person who keeps only enough cows to consume the by-products of a wellbalanced farm and gradually strengthens his herd and its production by good breeding and good feeding will find that cows will build up his farm and give him a profitable income without any material increase in his operating costs." There are thousands of farms in North Carolina on which sufficient feed for five to ten cows could be produced without interfering with the growth of the regular cash crops. On most of these farms there is labor available to feed and care ' for the animals without extra cost. < In such cases, the cows will pay ( the operating costs of the farm and make it possible to bank the returns, <W.w> tVia frnnt llrifhnilt hrvvinp to I I A1V/111 l/AAW ViV^w IT ?v?.v n. o use them for paying old debts. 1 Mr. Avery said that less than one- i half the acres on the average farm \ contribute to the income of the i owner. Pastures grazed by dairy t cows affords a way to profitably c utilize a large amount of such idle \ land. These pastures will pay from ( $5 to $8 an acre per month when c the butterfat is sold to a creamery. Cows and pasture will increase the annual labor income three times what it is now. s r Midwifery In State 1 Is Important Work 1 The practice of midwifery is an v important profession in North Car- 1 olina, as is shown by the table that appears elsewhere in this issue of the News Letter. Nearly one-third t of all births are attended by mid- r wives, the counties ranging from c 4.4 percent in Alamance to 73.0 jpercent in Warren. During the \ year 1927 there were 83,330 births r reported in the state, 24,454 of r which were attended by midwives. f The number of births attended by t midwives ranged from nine in Clay ] to 980 in Halifax County. There were eighteen counties in which j more than 400 births were attend- t ed by midwifes. t Approximately one-seventh of all c white births and seven out of ten c Negro births are attended by Mid- \ wives. It is most probable that the f excessively high infant mortality r and, maternal mortality rates in J.t North Carolina are largely the re- v STATE] Manufacturing Lumbermens I Company, Kan; Condition December 31, 1928, a Amount Ledger Assets Dec. 31st previ Income?From Policyholders, $1,953,34 Miscellaneous, $104,836.18; Disbursements?To Policyholders, $935 Miscellaneous, $476,962.59; Fire Risks?Written or renewed durin; ai a f\ r\r\r\ nf r\ . year, $>i<io,ueu, <ou; ASSE Value of Bonds and Stocks Deposited in Trust Companies and B Agents' balances, representing businei subsequent to October 1, 1928 Agents' balances, representing busine. prior to October 1, 1928.

The geographic distribution of the >ractice of midwifery makes an investing study. The proportion of vhite children delivered by midvives in the piedmont country is ather small. The ratios are high in he counties east of the fall line >r the coastal plains area, and lighest in the tidewater and mountain counties, with the exception if a half-dozen urban counties. At least four-fifths of all Negro >irths in the eastern half of the tate are attended by midwives. The atio is considerably lower in the jiedmont section as a rule, and owest in the Carolina highlands. There are only three counties in he eastern half of North Carolina vith as many as one-third of the Jegro births attended by doctors. North Carolina Leads North Carolina, with 6,500 midvives, leads the United States in lumber. Approximately one-seventh >f all the midwives of the United States are in North Carolina.

North Carolina is a fertile field d for the midwife due to the fact that * we have only one physician for v every 1,210 inhabitants, being out. j 0 ranked in this particular by forty-1 ? four states. . t' Maternal Mortality l( Not only is the infant death rate e high in North Carolina, but also the maternal mortality rate is high. a The maternal mortality rate for the e state was 8.2 per one thousand live' s births in 1925. During that year six v hundred and ninety mothers were s reported to have died from puer- E peral causes. Six counties reported le no deaths of mothers resulting from childbirth. The rate was highest in Jones county with 20.2 deaths 01 mothers resulting from childbirth per one thousand live births. In thirty-three counties the maternal mortality rate was above ten per * one thousand live births. There ap- j pears to be some tendency for counties with high maternal mor- r tality rates, but there are many exceptions. F North Carolina makes an un- . favorable showing in maternal mortality when compared with other states. Out of thirty states report- \ ed in 1923 only four had maternal C mortality higher than North Car-. E olina.

It is more than likely that some infected fruit was shipped to this State before the fly was discovered and if this be true, we should make every effort to prevent its spread." This new bug is greatly feared. It was found in Florida when there were still 9,000 cars of citrus fruit to be harvested and shipped. Entomologists say that it has been a serious hindrance to fruit and vegetable growing in all semi-tropical I regions. About the easiest way to I name tKe horticultural crops injured by the fly is to set aside pineapples and bananas and let the pest have the remainder. The fly injures peaches, plums, pears, apples, citrus fruits, peppers, tomatoes, melons, figs, grapes, persimmons, and so on and on. The fly is not so large as the iommon house fly.
