The latest issue of the New3
Letter contained a survey of the
size of farms in North Carolina
By a census taken in 1930 it
was found that farms in North
Carolina are steadily decreasing
, in size. .
North Carolina ranks twenty
efghth in size among states, has
the second largest farm popula
tion, and has the third largest
number of farms. North Caro
lina farms are very small com
pared with other states and only
about one-fifth of the land area
of the state is utilized as pas
ture or cultivated soil. Among
the states North Carolina ranks
low in the average size of farms
and .probably last in cultivated
land...
While other farms in the
United States are constantly
- growing larger, those in North
Carolina persist in growing
smaller. During the last ten
years the average size of farms
has shrunk from 74.2 acres to
64.5 acres. This decline in size
has been steady since the Civil
War. There are one hundred
counties in the state and in the
last decade eighty-eight have ex
perienced a decrease in the size
Ast farms.
There are a few large farms
in the: state, five being over five
thousand acres in size. There
are slightly more than fourteen
hundred farms in the state
which range from five hundred
to five thousand acres, most of
these being about five, hundred
acres. Only a small percentage
of land on these larger farms is
under cultivation, and the real
size of a farm means the amount
of land under cultivation, not the
amount of idle land.

Aims Of Department
Defeated By Dryness
(Continued from first pape)
the lack of coordination and
unification of the lectures, al
though the instructor is very
enthusiastic.
History 81-82
A clearly presented survey of
factual material on the Ameri
can colonies. ,
History 131-132-133
The lectures in these courses
are complete and full, but some
what uninteresting. Questions
are not asked for nor seemed to
be wanted.
History 137
Quite interesting because of
the discussion and speculation
which is cleverly conducted.
History 151-152
These courses in American
history before the Civil War are
made most interesting by the
excellent instruction and ob
vious interest of Dr. Green. Ex
tensive, outside reading, is required.
History 153-154
A controversial period (the
reconstruction) presented by an
instructor who has his own
ideas on the subject but does not
fail to present both sides.
History 155-156
Recent American . history,
probablythe most interesting
period, presented in well or
ganized lectures. Dry delivery.
History 161-162
Valuable courses for citizens
of -the state, which covers much
ground in detail.
History 163-164
Two new courses which the
professor does not present clear
ly. Mainly courses in which
opinion dominates.
History 167
A course far too elementary
for anyone having any remote
semblance of a knowledge of
American history, and given by
an instructor who apparently
does not have a very extensive"
knowledge of economics.
Government 21
This course in American gov
ernment is extremely dull and
sterotyped. Instructors do not
take an interest in teaching the
course. m
- Government 22 ,
This study of European gov
ernments has been made inter
esting by Professor Frazier.
Government 131
Conducted in an interesting
manner with beneficial student
pax liuauuii.
Government 132-133
Exceedingly desirable courses
conducted in a vital way with
much discussion by Professor
Woodhouse.
Government 141
A good course under Profes
sor Frazier.
Government 142-143
This is mainly 'a discussion
course upon international rela
tions, but very worthwhile to
take.
Government 151
A good course taught by very
formal lectures, tending to be
come uninteresting.
Government 152
. Another discussion course
which may be worthwhile . if
the' student enters with a serious
purpose.
Government 155
An excellent discussion course
for those who have not taken
Government al, although it is a
repetition of elementary study.
ALBRIGHT CALLS
FOR DELIBERATION
ON BUDGET BOARD
(Continued from first page)
dation of this plan by the Com
mittee will be submitted to a
vote of the student union, and, if
adopted, will be put into eff'f
for the first time in April, 1932
The second measure for con
sideration is a method to spon
sor a campus-wide program of
student discussion on vital is
sues. All discussion groups, lit
erary societies, and talks formal
or informal will be asked to co
operate, as well as the Daily Tar
Heel and the union forum. Some
five or six topics will be chosen
and a week devoted to each for
extensive study. A mass meet
ing will be called at the end of
each week to sum up the work
done and to concrete the advan
tages obtained.

IHKvE you noticed the new trend in cigarettes?
freshness is the popular thing.
That V because a fresh cigarette, as demonstrated
by Camels, is something smokers have discovered as
better than anything they ever tried before.
Camels are fresh in the Camel Humidor Pack be
cause they're made fresh to start with - blended of
choice, delicately mild sun-ripened tobaccos in which
the natural moisture and fragrant flavors are vigi
lantly safeguarded.

The tobaccos in Camels are never parched or toasted
the Reynolds metnod of scientifically applying heat
guarantees against that.
That's why we say with so much assurance that
Camels are truly fresh. They're made fresh - not
parched or toasted and then they're kept fresh in
the Camel Humidor Pack.
Try Camels' freshness for a change. Switch over
for just one day, then change back - if yOU can.
