MILK CAMPAIGN
IN RALEIGH

RALEIGH, April $50 effective
was the recent milk campaign con-
Quoted in the city of Raleigh that the
importation of considerable amount
Of milk from points in Virginia was
necessary for few days in order to
supply the demand until arrange
ments could be made for securing an
increased supply from farmers of
Wake county.
The retail business of the Pine
State Creamery jumped from ap-
proxinately 200 to 400 gallons a
day. One cafeteria has been using
almost five times as much milk since
the campaign as it used before. Ev-
cry soda fountain in the city has
noted marked increase in the sale
Of milk drinks and ice cream.
Results of the campaign in Raleigh
compare favorably with the results
Of the campaign at Winston-Salem
several months ago when the demand
for whole milk was increased 40 to
SO percent. In other cities similar re-
suits have been noted.
The daily home economics and
health experts who have put on the
campaigns in cooperation with the
! civic bodies and local dairymen in
the cities which have had them, have
brought home to the people the value
and Importance Of milk as an abso-
/ lutely essential part of the diet of
every child and every adult. DIR. w.
S. Rankin, secretary Of the board Of
! health, has declared emphatically it
! is Impossible to grow physically
! perfect man or woman without milk.
! It IS nothing else than crime, in his
! OPINION, to attempt to raise children
without their minimum of quart of
milk a day. It is crime not only
/, against the child himself or herself,
but against future generations.
Nutrition experts the country over
! are coming more and more to the
i unanimous conclusion that the cow
is not only the foster mother of hu-
! nanity, but that it has played a part
i'll the development of civilization
second to no other animal.

a-. e5o APPROPRIATED FOR
THE STATE HIGH SCHOOLS

pAT.FIGH, April An epoch
-.... ,,arGa,l IN the educational devel-
convent Of North Carolina when, Sat-
urday afternoon, the state board Of
,dneatioa appropriated S54,S5O to
.id in establishing standard four
roar high schools in rural districts
N counties which have not had such
schools heretofore, thus assuring a
standard high school for every coun-
tv in North Carolina.
Al the close Of the last school year
there were % counties in the state
N which there was not high school
Of standard grade. All of these 28
countias will be enabled to maintain
such a school through the action of
the board of education, and in addi-
tjon there will be established Is other
high schools in the rural districts of
counties which have not heretofore
had high school Of standard grade
outside Of the towns Of these coun-
ties. This act Of the board is made
possible by law enacted by the last
general assembly, and the appropria-
ton to the schools that will be af-
fected viii range from $500 to ST.
$50, the latter figure being appro-
priated IL most instances. A high
school cf standard grade must main
tain at Least, an 4eight-nonths,. term,
have three teachers devoting their
whole time to high school instruction
and have an average attendance IN
the high school department Of not
less than IS pupils.

Death from Infected Milk,

CHICAGO, April 3-The death of
Gwendclyn Armour, 6-years-old, the
daughter Of Philip D. Armour Sd.
and the illness Of her younger broth
er may have been caused by virulent
cro-organisms on the milk fed to
the children, was indicated when the
health commissioner issued orders
that no milk from two Wisconsin
farms should be brought into Chica-
go. A culture made from milk from
the farm, eight miles west of Wau-
kesha, where the milk fed to the Ar
mour children was produced, killed
a guinea pig within 18 hours after
the solution had been injected, the
health authorities said.

HONOLULU, T. H., April 7.-An-
other misconception Of the status Of !
the Hawaiian territory as part of
the United States came to light here
with the receipt Of communication
by a local bank from the collector of
internal revenue at Washington, re-
turning a check on the bank, ''be-
cause the Hawaiian islands are net in
the United States.''
The commissioners letter request
ed that '.the matter be adjusted at
once" and called attention to the
fact that check for any obligation
to the United States must be "paid
at par.'l
The, Banks reply, after comment
ing on the fact that many financial
institutions, especially along the At
lantic coast, have attempted charges
as high as 10 percent exchange on
! checks payable in this territory on
| the ground that Hawaii is "a foreign
| country
When we have pointed out that
/ Hawaii became part of the United
States by act of congress in the year
1898, tfey have usually been willing
| to casa said checks at par" the letter
said, adding that the war risk insur-
ance bureau and the alien property
custodian shave accepted our checks
| at par for years."
The incident was similar to the
experience Of Honolulu woman who
attempted to cash in Baltimore
| $25check on Hawaiian bank. The
clerk, advised her not to try to cash
the document on the ground that the
exchange would be SIP to $13."
You know, Hawaiian currency
has DEPRECATED considerably since
-4tlse-.a 1lllIs, - he added, sapiently. :.
| Another person, residing in Kan
sas City, also is ignorant Of the fact
that Hawaii is not a foreign country
but part of the United States, ac-
cording to letter received by a
! florist here who advertises on the
mainland
II am a stamp collector and would
like to know whether you would send
me some stamps used in those ISL
ands," the Kansas man wrote.
The florist sent two two-cent
stamps, with a note that they had
been purchased cat the postoffce,

contributed millions Of dollars in fed
eral income and other taxes to the

COTTON ACRE ACE IN
ISTEXAS INCREASED D

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, April
.7.-Cotton is already coming up on
about 10000 more acres of land in
cultivation in Nueces county than
last year and approximately so per
cent of that amount is Of the better
staple variety, according to reports
received by the Rural Land Owners
Association. The amount Of staple
cotton being planted this year is the
result cf the high premiums received
last year on the better grade of cot
ton.
The percentage of cotton acreage
in Nueces county this year has been
decreased slightly but the acreage is
considerably more, it is said, because
Of the new ground put into cultiva-
ton. Several years ago cotton was a
negligible crop in this section, but
in 1921 Nueces county ranked third
in the cotton producing counties Of
the state.
Cotton planting was started in this
section about a month ago, but was
set back Slightly by cold weather.
1t is believed, however, that very
| small percent of the cotton that had
| been planted was damaged.
One thing that accounts for the
decrease in the percent of acres
! planted in cotton this year is the sys-
| tenn Of modified crop rotation which
/ was worked out by the Agricultural
and Mechanical College. A campaign
for a system of crop rotation is be-
! ing carried on in this county this
year and according to M. C.. Jaynes,
! county demonstration agent, many
| farmers are interested in the plan.
/ This system calls for a rotation of
! one-ffth Of the acreage each year,
which is a method Of combating
root rot.
This campaign for a system of
modified crop rotation will be car
ried on by the Rural Land Owners
Association in much the same man
ner as was the staple cotton cam
J paign last year, according to Roy
Miller, secretary of the association
/ Mr.. Miller has been in Washington
for some time working on the deeI
water project but on his return tc
Corpus Christi during the past week
declared that he was we'll pleased
with the attention the farmers hat
been giving the plan.

(By JOHN PAUL LUCAS)

RALEIGH, April 7.-What county
in North Carolina has the greatest
per capita wealth?
One would most naturally assume
that Mecklenburg, Guilford, Johns
ton, Forsyth, Sampson, Wake, Cum
ber]and, Edgecombe, Wayne, Robe
son or some of the other counties in
the state whose crop values each
year are high in comparison with
those III other counties would claim
the distinction. Such is not the case,
however. These counties produce the
greatest wealth, but their purchases
of food and feed stuffs from other
sections have always tatken the larg-
est part of what they have produced
each year.
AS matter Of fact, the counties
whose Fer capita wealth ranks high
est are not in the cotton or tobacco
Allegheny has the post Of honor, and
next in order are Clay, Tyrrell, Cam
den, Graham and Orange. Most of
the mountain counties and a few in
other sections which have often been
viewed with some degree of condes-
cension by the counties which have
considered themselves weather. are
really more fortunately situated in
the matter Of accumulated wealth.
North Carolina as a whole, accord
ing to the last figures published by
the Federal Census Bureau, ranked
47th among the 48 states in the mat
ter of per capita wealth, being saved
from bottom position by the state of
Mississippi-this,i in spite Of the tre-
mendous wealth which we produce
each year and which places us fourth
among the agricultural states in the
union and well on toward the head
Of the list among the industrial
states
An analysis of the situation reveals
the fact that counties in which the
/, prouction of food and feed crops has
! been neglected and practically all
acreage and energy devoted to the
! production of money crops are poor
. er than the counties which by ma
! ture are less fortunately situated anc
! in which the people, perforce, OF
! from choice, have raised their living
! at home.
! This situation is an indictment Of
, the ordinary farm practice III the
! cotton and tobacco sections, and i:
j no less an Indictment Of the intelli
gence CT the farmers of these sec
| tions. If the wealth which has beer
produced in Johnston, Wayne, Rob
eson, Sampson, Halifax, Wilson ane
some ether counties which are so CO
(, piously blest with soil resources haG
! been kept at home during these pas
years through the simple expedien
Of producing at home the food ane
feed stuffs for which this wealth ha:
been aouandered they would be rici
! beyond their widest dreams Of 1919
+, Land IN those counties would be sell
ing at from 5000 to $500 per acre
Their soil resources are are sc
great that even at ordinary prices
