Depression Of 1873

Nearly 10000 commercial houses
failed between 1873 and 1878. By No
vember, 1873, pig iron could hardly be
sold at any price and by December
half the furnaces and mills in the
country had hut down. Six month:
later there were $4,000 men idle in
that industry alone. Rhodes thus de-
scribed the situation in those five
years, "a long, dismal tale Of declin-
ing market, exhaustion of capital, low
ering in value of all kinds of proper.
ty, including real estate; constan,
bankruptcies, close economy in bust
ness, and grinding frugalite in living;
idle mills, furnaces and factories,
former profit-earning iron mills reduc-
ed to the value of a scraP heap; la
borers out of employment, reduction.
of wages, strikes and lockouts, the
great railroad riots of 1877, suffering
of the unemployed, depression and de-
spair."" Recovery was fairly rapid.

SOIL EROSION and
WASHING RAPIDLY
WASTING FERTILITY
Conservation OF Soil To
Be Necessity In This
State; Productivity OF
Fields Mast Be Imcreas-
ed.
BY H. H. BENNETT
Bureau of Chemistry and Soils.

" NV ~ oOFPo
Never before in the history of North
Carolina has there been greater need
for better farming ON better land. By
this is meant not only the practice of
those proven methods of good farm
ing that relate to building up the fer
tility of the soil with humus-supply-
ing crops, such as lespedeza, clover,
alfalfa and grass, but protection of the
soil against wastage by rain wash,
closing the open bunghole through
which pours, almost unnoticed, soil
and soil fertility at a rate which ex-
ceeds by 20 times the rate of soil de-
pletion by the crops removed.
Surveys carried out by the federal
department of agriculture and some OF
the states have lead to the definite and
important conclusion that fully Is
per cent of the land in cultivation in
the United States today is suffering
from soil impoverishment by excessive
washing. Moreover, the information
indicates that no nation in history has
been so wasteful Of its agricultural
lands as we of the United States. This
wastage is chargeable, for the most
part, to unrestrained soil erosion-a
process which steals part of the soil
every time there is enough rain for wa
ter to run downhill. Everyone knows
that water running off cultivated
slopes is always muddy, clear.
The material that gives this color
to these waters racing away to the sea
consists of soil that comes largely from
the surface of the ground, where lies
the best part of the land, the farmers
principal capital. Pursuing this thought
further, it is to be observed, when we
come to examine uhe ground cond1-
tons critically, that the soil depth oy-
er the uplands of North Carolina is
only about 3 to 7 Oh 8 inches. Below
this superficial humus-layer lies the
subsoil, which, in the piedmont and
mountain regions, usually consists of
clay, hat is, materials which IS more
difficult to plow than was he mel
low loamy soil now gone or largely
gone from countless fields. This stub
born clay is less absorptive of rainwa-
ter and less retentive of that which is
absorbed. 1t brakes, hardens and cracks
in dry weather and loses its available
moisture quickly, causing crops, es-
pecially corn, grain and succulent veg
etables, to suffer rapid and irremeAial
depreciation.

"GIRL CRAZY"

If variety is the spice of life, RKO-

edy "Girl Crazy" which comes to the
Capitol theatre Mon, Tuesday and
Wednesday is a snappily seasoned en-
tertainment dish. 1t offers mirth and
melody, romance and action, beauty
and atmosphere.
In the cast are comedy stars, a child
prodigy, Broadway beauties, Holly
wood cowboys, Mexican senoritas, two
gun men, and polished villains. The
action shifts from city tenement, to
western dude ranch and Mexican re-
sort and ranges from riproaring chase'
to rhythmic dances and tender love
scenes.
Heading the imposing array of tai
ent are the inimitable Bert Wheeler
and Robert Woolsey, who start the
film as city slickers and wind up as
rough and ready westerners. Eddie
Quillan carries the romantic lead of a
girl crazy youth who transforms a re-
spectacle cattle ranch into a whoopee
dude resort. Mitzi Green, Hollywood
child mimic wonder, plays a pestifor-
Gus little sister and the omance and
beauty brigade is headed by Dorothy
Lee, Airline Judge, Kitty Kelly and Lita
Chevret. Stanley Fields and Chris Pin
Martin play the shoot and run villains.

this is exported, it comes into compe-

Cotton mills of the South and of

with a staple length of one inch to

Federal or State governments, it Is
good common sense which prompts the
farmer to reduce his cotton acreage.
The balance of his fields may be more
profitably planted with varied crops to
produce food both for himself and his
livestock.
The wise farmer, however, will re
member that every single dollar in
vested in good commercial fertilizer
may be depended upon to bring him a
return of three dollars Or more. Omit.
ting the fertilizer, may save a little
money at planting time and while the
crops are in their earl. growth stages,

fed crops are not side-dressed later.

Mr.. Kline says the premiums paid
for this better cotton have not de-
creased SO rapidly as has the basic price
of cotton. During 1881, the premiums
were relatively higher in proportion to
the price of seven-eighths inch cotton
than they have been for several years.

Commissioner Salary
 Bill Is Re ect e d

The bill recently introduced by Alaska Delegate James Wickersham providing for the payment of salaries to United States Commissioners in Alas ka has been unfavorably re- ported by the Attorney Gener- al's office, according to Wash ington reports.
 The House Judiciary com- mittee, to whom the measure was referred, submitted it to the Attorney General for his opinion. The Attorney Gener- al approved the purpose of the measure but reported unfavor- ably on it's passage because of the determination of Congress to keep down appropriations. In his letter to the committee Attorney General Mitchell said the department has for some time been considering legislat- ion to put Commissioners in Alaska on a salary basis and is inclined, as a general proposit- ion, to look upon the plan with favor. However, it is estimat- ed that it would require an ap- propriation estimated at ap- proximately $175,000 to cover l the salaries and expenses of Commissioners. Against this 1 there would be offset of ap- proximately $37,000 per an- mum, consisting of fees now re- ceived by Commissioners from sources other than the United States, and an aggregate of $46,000, leaving a net addit- ional cost to the government of S129,000.

Drifting Rowboat
 Suggests Fatality

Discovery of a drifting row boat containing a loaded rifle fishing gear and oars by Nick Kristovich in the vicinity Of Engineer Point in Portland Canal last Satudray created q mystery presenting aspects of possible tragedy for several days this week. It was found later, however, that the boat belonged to one De Pessimere a Stewart resident, who is gen. erally known as Shorty, the cook" and who has been en. gagged in hunting and trapping on the Canadian side of the Canal.
 It developed later that De. Pessimere had been marooneo as result of the boat drifting away while he was on shore A message received late this week by w. R. Reid of Hyder B. C., indicated that De Pessi, mere, on finding his boat gone managed to build a raft, ol which he rowed himself to camp on the American side Of the Canal. From there he was transported by boat tc Maple Bay. He asked MT. Reid to have the boat returned to him at Maple Bay in the event that it had been found.
 MT. Kristovich will tow the boat down on his return to Tombstone Bay tomorrow.

Harlem Survey Shows 80
p. c. OF Workers Jobless
Many Others Only Partly Employed; Negro
JObless Denied Relief by City and Agencies
Negro and White Workers Must Fight Against
Discrimination Demand Social insurance.

NEW YORK.-Of 324 Negro fam
lies selected at random in Har-
lem survey, about 80 per cent were
found to be, totally unemployed, and
OF this 80 per cent about thres-quar-
tiers were receiving no relief from
any source, according to report is
sued yesterday by the Pen g. Ham
mer, of ia w. 21st st.
The report further states that Of
SO per cent unemployment, based on
survey, Sc per cent were unemployed.
The Harlem survey, according to the
Pen & Hammer, an organization of
scientists, engineers and professional
people, is the first of a series on
social and economic questions.
The report contrasts its finding of
5 per cent unemployment, based on
the survey during the past three
weeks, with that Of Emergency Work
and Relief Committees April survey,
which placed unemployment for the
city as a whole at 81 per cent of the
"gainf-"S employed" of 1880, the
first crisis year. Pointing out that
the city-wide April survey by the
Emergency Relief Committee claimed
about the same percentage as the
G. o. S., the Harlem report concludes
that lit is pretty obvious that there
is either discrimination against the
Negro, or exaggerated optimism on
the part of the relief authorities"
The same charge is made in connec-
ton with the administration of re-
lief, where the Harlem study found
73.4 per cent of totally unemployed
families receiving no relief, as against
the 34.5 per cent unrelieved reported
for the city as a whole on April 10
by R. W. Houston on behalf of the
Emergency Work and Relief Com
mittee.

rected the Harlem survey, declared
that the findings showed something
