Pnv ette. . , Mr. Joe Carter is very sick with pneumonia, but seems to be some better at this time. farm conditions better No section of this nation is as completely devoted to agriculture as the region west of the Missouri and north of San Frcnciseo. Reports from banks that make a specialty of loaning on farming lands show that farming industry is more stabilized and on a better business basis than since the war. There is more inquiry for land and that is surely a healthful sign, and agriculture is coming back with a mighty swing of the pendulum in favor of the farmer. Improved conditions are due to im proved prices of farm products and that is helping business on all lines, but farmers l.ke other classes, have been living up to if not beyond their incomes in too many cases. With ready money in their pockets they are one of the shining marks for the “get rich quick” operator. It is important, if they wish to protect their profits this year, that before they invest in questionable undertak ings they investigate thoroughly through their bank or other reliable agency.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1925 TEE WELFARE WORKERS MEET • Outline Needs of the County; Discuss Other Matters Workhouse for deprived women, a detention home or younger girls and bee s, and a county hospital where tubercular patients could be cared for were the three' most pressing needs of Wake county as outlined by Mrs. T. W. Bickelt, county superintendent of Charities and Public Welfare, at a meeting of welfare workers of Wake county Saturday in the county court house. Preventitive work in saving the young people, she declared was the most important phase of the work. • Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, State commissioner of Charities and Pub lic Welfare, and 11. I). Farrell, pro bation officer, outlined briefly the work in their respective fields, and Rev. Charles F. Hudson, pastor of the Southside Baptist church spoke of the need of welfare work in this county. Berry O’Kelly from Berry O’Kelly Training School at Method, ijavo assurances of the do. ire of ne groes to co-operate in a welfare pro gram. The meeting was featured by i male negro quartet who rendered sev eral of the old negro spirituals and the singing of “I Want To Be a Christ an In My Heart, ’ by the col ored half of the congregation. Tlv hymn began with everyone singing, but gradually the white people ceased singing preferring to listen to the exquisite harmony rather than mar it with their own voices. Mrs. B'ckett drew a vivid picture of the nefarious work that older momen are doing in Raleigh teaching young girls their trade on the streets. “Those who have gone beyond hope of recovery shou’d be separated from our young girls,” she declared, “and placed where they can be made to do work that is of some benefit to hu manity.” Mr. Farrell also spoke of the need of a detention home in connection with the juvenile court work. It would provide a place to send young sters who should not be confined in prison where they will come in con tact with full fledged criminals. He alsov explained the status of the juv enile court. Mr. Farrel is a welfare worker under the Rockefeller Found ation Fund. Although it is mandatory that only 29 counties in the State have public weiffie departments, Mrs. Johnson tated, 56 counties are now main taming separate public welfare de partments. Briefly their work con sisted of giving the under privileged a chance, she declared. “Those who cannot fit themselves nto our social scheme create our hu man problems. Unfortunately there is an idea abroad that anyone can do social service work like anyone can teach the children of the State. Both are erroneous. In dealing with human problems, it requires not only delicacy and training, but experience and most of all a spirit of unselfish ness, energy and courage. Mrs. Johnson descr bed Wi.ke asU vould be were all the social evils remedied, and expressed the wish that this.time would soon came. Many tributes were paid to Mrs. Bickett and the work that she is doing in Wake county.

The farmers of Sampson county say »hnt it does and pays veil. To that they believe this they recently shipped three carloads one' from Clinton, one from Garland and one form Roseboro. This makes four from Sampson county this year. They bring on the average from I” 1-4 to 14 1-1 live weight it only costs the f; rmers about 8-9 ents to r i o them. Does it pay, vhat can the farmer raise on the i;>m as easy as he can hogs that will return him 50 per cent profit on his investment? Joe Warren re ceived for his fifteen hogs 5475.2'* net, and his cost was approximately 8 -2 7.00, which gave him a net profit of 810.00 per hog. In the car that was shipped from Clinton, Joe Warren, Henry Bizzel, Dan Currie, 11. I). Leonard, Albert Matthews, and William Peterson were the farmers co-operating in the shipment. These hogs were shipped with the co-operation of the Agricultural teachers of Sampson county. They are planning to ship several carloads next spring. Any one wishing to place some hogs for shipment in the spring should get in touch with one of the Agricultural teachers (J .M. Henley, at Salemburg; C. W. War wick, Ingold; J. O. Anthony, Shady Grove Dunn No. fi). They will he glad to give any information as to Methods of feeding or care that the hogs should have. Hogs are scarce in the United Stag's and may be higher next Spring than they are now. Hogs are higher as a rule in the Spring months of I,la v ch rrd April and the fall months of August and September than at an yother time of the year. The Eastern Carolina farmar can take advantage of this and ship at ine peak market due to the mildness of the climate. COST AND FOUND—The Record will help you solve such questions.
