Commissioner Graham read his report
which.Mo part, was as follows;
The year we are closing is on a of the
most notable agriculturally in the his
tory of the state. The largest wheat
crop and the largest and best in qual
ity corn crop have been garnered. The
cotton crop, while not equal to that of
last year io, number of bales, will be"
around six thousand bales, and the price
will probably make the amount of mon
ey received as large or larger.
1 here has been great advance along
all lines agriculturally; better prepara
tion of the land.better selection of
seed, more intelligent application of
fertilizers, and more attention to re
atre fertility. The 'average' of pro
duction of corn is thought to have
reached twenty bwihels per acre, where
it wts reported as only fourteen bush
els four years ago. The average for
the United States is put at twenty
nine bushels. North Carolina can and
will reach, and perhaps surpass, these
figures in a few years, a number ' f
.
counties have exceeded it this year.
large, corn crop must be accompanied
by hogs and other stock to consume it
in order to receive the greatest reiurn
for it.

'The President advocates the wri
ting of a tariff bill in detail; that is, of
writing it one schedule at a time. Years
ago the Democratic party advocated
this proposition and were severely crit
icised by their Republican adversaries
for doing so; but there can be no ques
tion that the only intelligent way in
which a Congress or a Ways and Means
Committee can prepare a tariff bill with
due regard to a fair adjustment of each
schedule is to take them up separately,
rive careful study and deliberate con
sideration to each item, and adjust them
with a full knowledge of the business
conditions at home' and abroad, which
can only coma after very careful inves
tigation.
