Mr. Gaither dlscuSsed primarily “he economic outlook for farm crops IT 1931 and “Farming "to Make a living in 1931.” ’The general outlook or cotton and tobacco for this year |and next, ^tfth the . average produc- jtion, as. by Mr. Gaither, was rathei*^deep h nted a mjach re for beais^-co#/' and 6i eL and Making .>aLd; Last Friday the fanners and poul try ralsero.of Raeford amd the coun ty benefitt^ again by a sensible project of the State Department of Agriculture. In accordance with no tice given ahead of time, a poultry car , was loaded at Raeford. The program was under the direction of County Agent Burton and met with the approval of the poultry shippers. The car was loaded' with 6,294 pounds of fowl, of which turkeys formed: a very small part. The total receipts for the poultry loaded were $1,057.00. The loading of poultry cars Is an other evidence of the progress of co-operative work in the agricultu ral field in North Carolina A ^ure sale for poultry will do much to spread and stabilize poul try raising among North Carolina farmers. ■ This is but one branch ■ of the diversified farming program which experts are urging upon the farmers of North Carolina. Jasper County, Georgia, the supreme exam ple of diversified farming, proclaims itself in a most prosperou's state due to the placing of emphasis on raising live stock and poultry and packing and selling through a co operative organization. ^-a i^go blue,-;'..

TheU the quality of the.crop ■will have to be harmonized with the pnee to be paid, and- it Uktiy that a small- crop, carefully made and graded and held tip to good .quality, will bring more money than a big crop of miscella neous junk* Another thing that Mr. Page sug gests is that everybody in the state iB_ financially interested in the tobac co crop for it is the source of a big part of the state income. The mer- chmit, the banker, the town folks, ail depend more or less on the prosperity of the farmer. Much difference of opinion has existed concerning Ahe co-^iperative method of selling'tobac co, but if it is a good method, if it brings more prosperity to the far mer, it certainly will bring more pros- pe^y to those the faCmeC deals witji.

Few people really know what is going on out there. One of these difys' I' -wn&t to write it up. Their biennial re port has just been issued. IrS a mighty Iptereeting document. You ought to get hold of a copy and read it. I was looking over one of them a coupto of days ago. Out of 1.015 prisoners,_ who were church mem bers, 618 bald they had been affil iated with the Baptist church be fore they went to prison. Think of that! I’m .a Baptist myself, so I don’t mind writing about my own cmwd. Over 60 per cent of all our cfurch member prisons are Baptists. They’re bound to be, because the legislature is a^jnuch bigger problem to our people than the State Prison, Talking about prison; pouring money into that old rstrtrap for maintraance is like pouring water Into a kieve. The old pile of bricks is just about ready to chimble and fall to pieces. College professms claim that an injustice is “being done' them in the proposal to reduce salaries ten per cent. The merchant,, the manuao turer, the clerk,'.^he laboring man and the farmer Bkve^ all had to take their cut in revenue and 1 don’t see why the Intellectuals should be absolve^ from their obligation; just bCcadyl^ a man knows how to translate a Latin sentence or how to pronounce d’oeuvferes Is rea son why he shouldn’t get do«(n on a level with qs co'mmon folks when it comes to taking a cut In wages.
