PAGE FOUR COTTON SUPPLY OF WORLD STILL NEAR HIGH PEAK More Than Twice World Consumption During 1931-32 With the December estimate of the domestic crop larger than forecasts made early in the season, the estimat ed world supply of American cotton for 1932-33 is now only slightly less than the record supply of 1931-32 and is more thin twice the world consump tion of American cotton during 1931- 32. Reports received on foreign pro duction prospects up to mid-January indicate that 1932-33 production out side the United States will be about 900,000 bales larger than in 1931-32, but wHI be the smallest, with the ex- 1 ception of last season, since 1927-28. The total supply of foreign cotton in 1932-33 will apparently be about the same as the preceding year owing to the de:rease in the carry-over of these cottons. Domestic mill consumption from September to December, 1932, was ma- ! teriallv above the like period of 1931 \ and 1930, and averaged about 75 per | cent above the low point of July, 1932. j Despite the high rate of production, I textile stocks at the end of 1932 were much lower than at the end of any of the previous five years. The tex tile situation in Europe also improved during the fall and early winter, and | in Japan activity continued at high lev- , els with record quantities of Ameri can cotton being used. The estimat ed world consumption of American cotton, during the-first four months | of the season was 11 per cent above | the corresponding period of 1931-32 j and 26 per cent above the period Aug ust to December, 1930-31. Prices of American cotton during ■ 1932-33 remained fairly stable from j mid-October to late January, and al- j though substantially below the level | reached in late August, they were, atj the end of January, about a cent and a quarter above the low point of June, 1932, and about the same as a year earlier. Prices of Indian relative to J American were still very favorable to H. L. SWAIN LAWYER Leggett Building WILLI AM STON, N. C.

TRACTORS '* - N Williamston Motor Company WILLIAMSTON, NORTH CAROLINA NEGRO LEADS IN LIVING AT HOME Subsistence Farming Being Practiced by Colored Man in Vance It was a lucky day for Pil Reed, a negro farmer in Vance County, when a local nurseryman decided a few years ago to quit the business and sell out his left-over sto:k for a few dol lars. ' , Reed and his wtfc bought SO peach I trees, 50 apple trees, 6 pear trees, 6 , grape vines, 2 pecan trees and 2 Eng . lish walnut trees for $54. The pecan trees died and the English walnuts • have not done so well, -but the other trees are living and- have been bear ing fruit for about three years. As a result, says Mrs. Hattie F. Plum i mer, Vance County home agent, Reeds wftfe this* past summer canned 303 j quarts of fruits and vegetables, made 14 gallons of preserves and jelly and] saved two bushels of dried apples and one bushel of dried peaches. ; The Tamily could not find much of a I sale for fruit, byt the wife gave away; J considerable apples and about 30 bush | ' els of peaches to neighbors. She also j sold $7 worth of fruit and $35 worth jof surplus vegetables. She would have j canned more, but had filled up all the | cans she could get. They have 50 ! hens, 11 guineas, 5 hogs, 2 cows, and i 2 "banks" of They have plenty of corn and saved for ] winter. I "We baa a dry season all over : Vance County last year," says Mrs. j I'lummer, "but most of.our folks kept on planting and kept on saving what they had grown. This negro family t ,'s just one example of what a family in very humble circumstances was able to do and we have other examples equally as good. Those, of our peo-j pie who grew what they could and saved all the .food and feed possible are in a favorable condition so far as living is concerned." • - - Young People To Have Charge of Baptist Service ' Following Sunday school at the Bap tist church Sunday inomiifg the pas- j tor, will preach. -"j At the evening hour, 7:30 o'clock,, tin* young people of the I ntermediate I and Junior B.

The small 11 supply of Indiattyand the almost rec-' | ord supply of American indicate that i this situation is likely to continue dur- i ing the remainder of 1932-33.
