Farming to Make A
Living And Money
Columbia. S. C? "Farming to
make a living and thereby makiag
money It the method whereby the
tanners of the Carolina*, Georgia
and Florida are going to prove that
fanning is not only a mode of life
but a desirable and profitable one,"
said P. H. Daniel, president of The
Federal Land Bank at this city,
while discussing the future of farm
ing in these four states served by
hif bank. "Farming to make a liv
ing should be the first consideration
of the great majority of farmers,
for, that accomplished, they are at
toast assured of a livinfe. It forms
the mud sill from which they can
build their other activities. A good
home, a garden and forage crops!
for the live stock are essentials
which, when provided, give the
farmer a sense of security not en
Joyed by many a dweller In the
cities. With these Jn sight, with
reasonable efficiency in farming to
this area, the bash crops will pro
duce tiie funds with which to pay
the taxes, interest and upkeep and
surplus besides.
"This is not theory," continued
Mr. Daniel, "It has been demon
strated times without number. Ppe
Sibly those who will agtee with,
ttese statements most readily right
at present are those thousands of
farmers who left farms a few years
ago to take employment In the
cities, many of whom now are
without Jobs and some without
funds with which again to estab
lish themselves in the country.
Many of them, however, do have
funds and they or the sons who j
were brought up on the farm are
purchasing farms again. It is in
deed fortunate for them that they
caif now obtain properties at much
lower prices than prevailed a few
years ago. In fact, at prevailing 1
prices, I sincerely Relieve there
never was a time when there was
such a good opportunity to obtain
good farms at figures which injure !
a profit on reasonably efficient op
eration. The people of these south
eastern states are not awake to the
possibilities which lie before them.
Back in the early nineties in the
middle west the basis of many
great fortunes was laid by the far
Sighted Individuals who realized
that there would again be a demand
for land and at much higher prices.
Here we have ft comparable situa
tion, only, In my opinion, it is even
greater than it was in the middle
west three decades ago. The de
mand for farm land must increase.
It is sure to do so as soon as it
is fully realized that it is' being of
fered at prices below its true value
from the standpoint of ..earning
power, as is the case today all over
this territow- In what other part
of the country is. It possible for ft
few thousand dollars to purchase
outright -a. farm unit which will
afTord a family a living .pay ex
penses and also a fair amount of
net cash at the end of the year?
> i
And It isn't necessary tor a pros
pective owner to make a large
down payment.
"When the gweral public again
realizes that one of the safest and ;
soundest Investments it can make*
is In the farm, the supply of farms
which can be bought at current
low prices will be quickly exhaust
ed. Everyone knows- how universal
has been the Suffering from the
national debauch In speculation in
the stock market. Prom the shell
shock of that debacle the public hap
not yet recovered its sanity. It has
developed tl temerity even toward
its own private enterprises and a1
deep skepticism toward Others As
It gradually recovers, it will be as
tounded at Its lack of business fore
sight In not investing In land dur?
lng this period in which land val
ues have dectoed to below pre-war
levels.
"It is an economic axiom that
when commodities fall to levels be
low the cost of production. It's a
good time to buy. If anyone doubts
that good farms can now be pur
chased for less than It would cost
to clear them and erect the build
ings, let him tackle . the Job. But
the reproduction value is not always
a guide to its current value. Pres
ent prices afford a good opportunity
to purchase at figures upon which
a real return on the investment can
be made.'
"The people to buy these farms
already live in the communities
where the farms are located. They
are the best people to own the
properties. There Is a large popu
lation in these southeastern states
and this area can utilize the pro
ducts of every acre of tillable land
properly farmed. We have no such
farm problem as Is faced in parts
of the northwest where there is a
sparse population. We need no im
migration, for when we once awak
en to our own possibilities,, farms
will not be available at the prices
it is possible to purchase thim to
day- ?
I "The experience of The Federal
Land Bank -of Columbia In selling
farms during the last year, In which
we have sold tpore farms than ever
before, leads me to believe that
confidence in the fundamental val
I ue of land is returning and that it
. is only necee&ary to point out the
' facts to revive It completely," con
, cl?ded Mr. Daniel. 1

WOMAN VICTIM
Of BURNING HIS
Gu Tank
Kins ton, May IT? Mrs. Minfail
Sugg*, of ' Greenville, was burned to
death In a bus accident at Mocca
sin River, twelve miles from here,
shortly before noon today. The
driver, Lloyd Prltchard, is in a hos
pital here with severe' bums. An
axle on the bus, operated by Kin
gton Interests between Fayetteville
and Washington, D. C., broke on a
curv near the main highway bridge
across the river, a wheel ran off and
friction sparks from the brake drum
dragging over the highway Set fire
to the gas tank. The vehicle was
Instantly enveloped In flames. It
ran a few yards and stopped in
front of a filling station at the end
of the bridge.
The driver, his clothing in flames,
opened a door and tolled out on the
ground. His life was saved by a
man who secured a fire extinguish
er from the station and ran to his
aid. Mrs. Suggs, the only passen
ger, could not be reached. The fire
was so hot the woodwork on the
bus was consumed in a few min
utes. There was po explosion. The
tank cap was believed to have been
shaken off when the axle broke.
Farlie A. Garner, Lenoir county
coroner, took charge of the woman's
body, who could not be Immediately
identified.
She boarded the bus at Kenans -
ville and was to' have left It at
Greenville.
Prltchard, the youthful driver,
who lives here, suffered bUms on
the face, arms and body. He will
recover, it is believed.
Mrs. Sugg who was prominently
connected in Pitt and Greene coun
ties was sixty years old. She was
returning to Greenville from Wil- !
mington.
In Memory Of
G. M. Lunsford
On Wednesday, February 25,
1931, the death angel was sent to
the home of Mrs. Ida Lunsford
and took from her a devoted hus
band, and true loving father. God
needed him to All a vacant place
before the throne. All was done
for Mm that doctors and loving
hands could do, but nothing could
stay the cold hand of death. He
was -always ready to help h 1 s
friends, neighbors and any one he
could. He will be greatly missed
by all. He was a true and loving
neighbor. It was hard to give him
up, but Ood knows best for us.
We must hope to meet him in that
beautiful land. He leaves to mourn
a sad, broken-hearted wife, one
"son, daughter, mother, .father, and
three brothers. Written by L.M. V.

JESUS PREPARING 1"C)R
THE END '
Luke 23:7-33
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D.D.
At all times ifeeu s of Nacareth
was loyal to His Jewish extraction.
He observed the Sabbath, made lull
use of the synagogue and kept the
Hebrew feasts. His work during re
cent weeks had the Jewish Pass
over as its objective. Preparation
was made on Thursdfty of what we
now call Holy Week. With His
disciples He proceeds to Jerusalem
and instructs how they may find
toe room where they will keep the
feast. It was easy to follow the
lead for they were to find a man
bearing a pitcher of water, whereas
water canning was the Job for wo
men. It Is thought that John Mark
was the young man - and that he
led them to the house of his moth
er, Mary. /
A most significant act took place
when Jesua washed -the feet of all,
since each one of the disciples pur
posely avoided this customary duty
lest he appear to belittle himself
and have a lesser place in the King
dom they expected the Leader to
establish.
Following the Passover meal and
the departure of Judas, JeSus per
formed one of the few acts that
deals with organization. He took
some of the unleavened bread and
gave to It the significance of His
body that was about to be yielded
up on the cross. The cup typ|Bed
His shed blood. These emblems
were to be taken by His disciples
throughout all times as memorials
of the gift of Self on the cross on
. I ;
the merrow. Thus we have the
Sacrament of the Lord's Supper,
through which we make confession
at Cfarirt as our Saviour. Read the
table conversation tn Jotyi 14, 15.
18, and note the prayer of Jesus tn
that Ujjper room as recorded in
chapter IT. "This do in remem
brance of me" is the abiding com
mand to all believers.
