Fine Increase Reported In Farm Income For The Year 1935 The gross income of North Caro lina farmers in 1935 was $305,122, 000, according to figures supplied Dean I. O. Schaub, of State College, by the U. S. Departmtent of Agri culture. The figure includes benefit pay ments distributed by the AAA and the value of commodities produced for consumption on the farm. Cash in,com,e\ from the sale of farm products amounted to $217,- 475,000. AAA benefit payments of $12,293,000 swelled the total cash income to $229,768,000. Farm commodities consumed on the farm were conservatively val ued at $75,354,000, the dean stated. Byway of comparison, he said that the 1934 gross income was $299,075,000, of which $219,279 was derived from the sale of crops and livestock and $17,314,000 from AAA payments. Products consumed at home were valued at $62,482,000. For both years, the cash income from the sale of farm products was based on returns from 78 crop and 13 livestock items. The dean pointed out that al though the AAA payments was considerably larger in 1934 than in 1935, and the income from cash salqs was somewhat larger, the value of commodities produced for home consumption rose from $62,- 482,000 in 1934 to $75,354,000 in 1935. The greater value of home-con sumed products in 1935 was more than enough to offset the slight de crease in cash income, with the re sult that the gross income increased by $6,047,000. All this indicates the trend away from the production of cash crops and toward the production of those things needed on the farm and by the farm family, the dean stated. In other words, farmers are bal ancing their farming programs and becoming more self-sufficient. o Rev. Henry Scott RubeJ, an Epis copalian minister, writes many of the jokes for Joe Penner, famous radio comedian.

Reynolds Tobacco Company advertising in newspapers and magazines and by radio. Proof that smoking Camels stimulates the flow of digestive juices was furnished by scientific research conducted at one of the i great American Universities, earli est advertisements in the series noted. The great popularity of Camel Cigarettes at the finest hotels and restaurants has boon pointed out in a sustained advertising campaign Testimony of matire d’hotels and restaurant managers representing fashionable dining places in all parts of the county is quoted in the advertisements. Advertisements also quote athletes, explorers and others who have found Camel Cig arettes beneficial to digestion at all times. The advertisements also pointed out that Camels are milder, are made from finer and more expen sive tobacco. The new “Camel Caravan” which is proving the smash hit of the 1936 summer radio season is now being broadcast from Holly wood. Motion picture stars are fea tured as guests artists along with Rupert Hughes, famed novelist, and two noted orchestras Benny Goodman’s swing band * and Nat Shilkert’s orchestra. This radio show is broadcast over the Colum bia eoast-to-coast network every Tuesday evening. o Eight farmers of Yancey County recently purchased a car of lime stone for use this fall. Some of the men borrowed money to pay for the material; others cut and sold cross ties. We have every reason to believe that tobacco will bring a good price this year, in fact we feel better than usual about the tobacco situation and we are going to give our personal attention to every load that comes into our house. We are ready for a big year and intend to take care of the farmers.
