out the increase in other lines.
The total school fund grew from
nearly three and half millions in
1911 to nearly four and a half nil
lions in 1912 And even at that
ne average rural school term in
North Carolina is only 1888 days.
In 1911 it was 94.3 days. A six
months term as a minimum is one
of the recommendations of Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction 10 :

Valuation of school property has
increased. The 7,777 school houses
at present are valued approx
mately seven and a quarter millions
while the 7,675in 1911 were valued
at six and a half millions. There
are fewer school houses now than
there were Ii 1911, due to consoIi-

PROSPERITY WAVE
DURING YEAR 1912
NJ W: and Observer

carolina, large yields and gooo
prices for farm products have CT Al
eo a wave OF prosperity during the
year 1912. The wave has bee
growing steadily for the past thre<
or tour years. Every other indust-
ry than that which employs four,
ilfths OF the States population has
prollted by the prosperity Of the
farming four-fifths, and the review
OF the year that shows steady pro
gress in all lines must be attributed
to agricultural prosperity,
Inc steadlness Of growth is OBJ
served best and most accurately j.,
the state departments in RALEIGH
which form a clearing house for the
States condition at all times
these departments are in the mids
OF reports for the year, some G
which have been issued.
Others are in the hands of thf
printers. Without exception, tht
prosperity note is struck, and tht
State faces what is expected to bt
the most prosperous year in its his
tory.
Farm B It (hristm S.
This has been the best christ,
mas the farmers of the State have
ever had" said Commissioner 0
Agriculture Graham yesterday
Not all crops have been up to the
mark by aly means,ein fact there
have been decreases in more thai
one, but prices have been good al,
total receipts have brought up th
total to the mo- satisfactory poil
yet reached"
The cotton crop in the State ha
been less than that of 1911, the re
cord cotton year all over the count
ry, but at that it has not been alar
mingly less. The number of bale
of cotton ginned to December |. IS
II, was $4,000. This year tht
number was $4,000. Increase
prices the staple have wiped ou:
the deficit, and it may be that fin
al figures will show that the receipt
for farm products in the State havs
been much larger than those of 1911
inspite of crop shortages in several
products.
Fhe corn crop was approximately
2O per cent short. A wet sprina
delayed planting in lowlands; a dry
summer burned up the highland
crops. The wheat crop was as good
as that of the previous year, but
the quality was not so good.
Though greater emphasis is being
brought to bear week by week on
intensive cultivation, the yield per
acre is not as large as it was the
year previous, farmers have shown
a greater interest in the selection
of seed than ever before.
The number of hogs raised in the
State was greater, but the number
OF cattle was less. 1t is explained
that the production OF cattle is
growing less because of frequent
salves to butchers.
What Major Graham considers
one OF the mos encouraging feat
ures OF the years report is the de-
crease in food products imported.
In 1911 sixty million dollars
worth OF 1eedstu1f was shipped into
the State. During the past year
only 1orty million dollars worth was
shipped in.
lhe number of fairs in the State
is considered one of the best baro-
meters of farm prosperity and farm
education. In 1912 there were
tWenty-three fairs in the State. In

associations seem to go on the theory
that the tests are for comparison
between herds instead of to give the
owner an accurate idea of what the
COWS in his own herd are doing for
him, of how they compare under the
same conditions with each other. The
owner should also have the benefit of
his Individual business ability in buy
ing feed and selling his product and in
determining his own profit and loss.
In making comparisons with other
herds, the man-his sagacity in select
ing suitable but cheap feeds, his
ability as a caretaker, the stable,
pasture, quality of hay and silage, all
should be considered, as well as the
COW. I am firm believer in the asso-

tester will not only figure out the

keep the books as to the profit and loss
