CROP VALUES IN STATE DOUBLED UNDER THE AAA Nearly 400 Million Dollar Increase Reported In Past Three Years During the two and a half years of the AAA, the total increase in North Carolina farm income was more than $416,785,000. This figure is the sum of the AAA benefit payments plus the increased valuation of farm crops since 1932. In 1932, before the AAA, the val ue- of farm crops in this State was *104,362,000, said Dean I O. Scltaub, >f State College, who had charge of the AAA programs in North Caro Una. With the inauguration of the AAA in 1933, the valuation of farm crops rose to $194,390,000. The following year it climbed up to $262,973,000, and in 1935 it was $246,348,000. The total increase over 1932 dur ing the next three years amounted to $390,625,000. In addition, the farmers cooperating in the crop control programs received more than $26,160,000 in benefit payments Up to September 30, 1935, the ben efit payments had reached a total of $26,159,193. Since that time other payments have been made, and yet others are now due, the dean point ed ouL g The benefit payments, claaified by commodities, were, distributed to North Carolina farmers thus: tobac co. $14,515,189; cotton, $10,689,546, corn-hogs, $848,005, and wheat, $97, 451. From the sumer of 1933 up to Sep tember 30, 1935, farmers in Martin TELLS OF 4H CLUB WORK IN COUNTY DURING YEAR 1935 Miss Evelyn Everett Has Found Club Valuable She Says In Article Today By Evelyn Everett What 4-H Club Work Has Meant To Ma I have been a member of various organizations such as literary, dra matic, health, debating, glee club [ and 4-H club. If I were asked to choose which club had been of the most service to me I would readily say, "The 4-H club.'" Were 1 to at tempt to list all the values of this club undoubtedly I would have to write a book. As I am a poor au thor, 1 think it would be far better for me to just tell you what the 4-H club has meant to me. When 1 first joined the club I was a rought and rowdy tomboy with only one intention, that of having a good time. I joined under Miss Anna Trentham. I didn't want to stay in my classroom while the ethers were doing anything but try ing to sew, so I joined alSo. Little did 1 realize that this club would some day be of great value to me. That it would teach me to make my own clothes, to plan and , prepare meals, to plan and furnish my room and to lighten the many tiresome burdens of my mother. I In my first year I learned to make | aprons and hot dish mats. I also learned to embroider our club em blem, the 4 leaf clover. In my sec ond, third and fourth years I learn ed to plan meals that would be simple yet appetizing and also con tain the needed minerals and vita mins to keep the body healthy. I also learned to help my mother can vegetables and meats in the sum mer. In my fifth year I learned how to improve my room. How the furni ture should be arranged so as to make the room look balanced. I learned what colors blended and in what rooms they should be used and how. 1 was taught to make over chairs, wash stands and other old furniture into attractive but simple articles. I also learned the art of picture hanging. In other words, I learned to take an unattractive room and make it into a very at I tractive room at small cost. In my sixth, seventh and eighth years I was taught clothing. I learn ed how to care for my clothes ' to make me stay fresh looking and last longer. Later I learned how to plan my own wardrobe. To have attrac tive clothes yet not very expensive, to have the kind of clothes I had al ways desired but could not make myself. At the time. I graduated from high school, I was able to make my school clothes underwear and some of my Sunday clothes. The 4-H club not only taught me tc sew, cook, care fur my room, but to mingle with people in general, to make and hold friends. In 1932 ij attended camp at Neuse Forest. I was a member of the health group. 1 here I learned to swim, how to ac knowledge introductions to strang err and to introduce your friends to others. We were taught the value of cooperation in any division of life, that it is the most important factor in any kind of career. By our lcyalty, good sportsmanship and obdience of the rules each member of the health group won a medal. In 1934, I attended camp again, and was chosen captain of my group County received a total of $364,766 in AAA rental and benefit payments. Payments to growers in near-by counties were: Beaufort, $408,735.18; Bertie, $266,282.56; Edgecombe, $799,! 918.14; Halifax, $646,714.29 and Pitt, $1,222,108.61. which was again winner We won in the dramatic contest All of thee* contests taught me many useful thinga. such as being a good laoder. to be in dramatics and win your way to the hearts of your fellow club members. Being chosen as the beet all-round girl in camp, I was honored with a trip to the State Short course at Hal eight. There I fully realised the real purpose of our beloved 4H club The Stat* Short course has meant more to me than any one thing in my life. There I met some of my nearest friends, friends that will remain in my memory forever even though our paths may never cross again. Not only did I make valued fi lendships, but I learned to take the right kind of recreation, to judge canned products and learned still more about the ways of different people and how to adjust myself to meet the people of the world and to like them as I would have theni like me. The year I spent as a county leader has meant a lot to me to en courage younger club members and in press them with the morals and importance of club work. My eight years in this club is not packed with the things I should like it to be nor have I won any coveted awards or been of so much use to the club as I could have been, but 1 do clearly see how much it could have meant to me had I entered in to the spirit of it sooner. May every girl in the Old North State come to love the 4-H club as I do and to really mean it when she says1 I pledge my head to clearer thinking My heart to greater loyalty My hands to larger service, And my health to better living for | my club, community and country.
