. I'XiONO LETTER FAVORING
THfe STOCK LAW. ,
i rom a Farmer Who Once Opposed
It City and Country People
. Should Both Read lr."
II. F. W, MaysVille, N. C.'July 2214
ixLtor New Bern Journal- :;'
It has been a long time since I have
8 en any communications in your pafer
regarding the Stock Law. :j These letters
have been very interesting to me es
pecially those written by Mr- Daniel
Lane of Bellair in your county. I was
formerly opposed to the Stock "Law, but
the ''more "'I read about, and study the
question, the more convinced I am that
' it is to the interest of we farmers and
' the 'public generally to have a. Stock
Law. I know the average politician says
he is opposed to it, because he knows of
'the ignorance of some of our people,
and the Vote of the ignorant man counts
as much for him as the vote of the in
telligent man, 'and he can generally
arrange to control the ignorant voter. 7
1 Suppose your people in the city of
- New Bern allowed cattle and hogs to
I- roam over your streets. What a filthy
town you would have. Our little villages
and country towns ought to be as clean
' and as sanitary as the bigger towns. We
' are human and appreciate cleanliness
, and good health as much' as others da
'Our hogs are being killed on the pub
lic roads by the automobiles. Some of
our best people are automobile owners
' and are entitled to the right of way oa
the public roads., The hogs and cajttle
have no right to be laying around and
'.rooting up our public roads. 'The vicious
cattle are liable to run over our children
and , often endanger their lives while
attending the country schools. , It is
filthy and indecent to allow the animals
x to run at large. You are liable to run
over an old cow cow lying in the public
roada at night while returning from
church with your wife and children in
the buggy or automobile and kill or
injure your family.
'The amount we have annually to pay
the U. S. Steel Corporation for wire
fence and staples, to say nothing of the
' -valuable wood furnished for pastures
to keep cattle and hogs from destroying
our crops is more than the value of the
'hogs and ticky cattle. Look at the car
loads of wire our merchants are forced
to buy for us, timber is too valuable
for rails any more. Wire costs more
than the ticky cattle and hogs are worth.
Do you consider, the doctors bill we
have to pay for eating such unwhole
'." some food and producing flies and filth,
typhoid fever and hookworm by allow
ing thesse animals to roam freely in our
' village streets. Do you know that the
v- law prohibits the sale of meat from the
tick infested districts to the cleaner
, districts. It is true we can sell our
ticky beef in New Bern, but we cannot
sell it in Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte,
Asheville, Norfolk, Richmond, or any
of the qties in the Stock Law territory,
- and we have seen some suggestions that
the Woman's Club of New Bern might
build up a sentiment which would cut
the " sale of it out of that city. Do
, you know there is cannot buy any
'. blooded stock and breed them with any
success in ojr ticky woods. Do you
know hog cholera is more prevalent in
: our territory. Do you know there is a
, a big profit in cattle
and hogs raised and cared for in en
closed pastures. Do you know we send
v lots of money from ur community to pay
for milk, butter, lard and meats that
we oyght to produce here and save that
. money at home.. Do you know in the
"Stock Law districts our farniers are
more prosperous and their families more
healthy, laficls are higher and the rural
i life is happier. If you don't know these
things, get out among the folks and in-
' form yourselves. These conditions
: certainly exist.
