produced on home grown farm
supplies much cheaper than on sup
plies purchased with cotton and to-
bacco money on credit. Therefore,
it seems apparent that the farmer
who in 1888 feeds himself, his
family and his tenants off his own
farm, whether he is in debt for
land or not, will be in position to
lose less during the year than he
has lost during the past three years
Whether he can make any profit
in 1888, depend upon where he
started from on January 1. If he
started like the first farmer men,
toned and sticks to the live-at-
home system there is a likelihood
that he will be able to pay his
taxes, fertilizer bill and have a lit
tie left to buy clothes and school
books for the children and have 4
years supplies ahead. Many farm
ers in this state did this in 1882.
If he starts out with the 4S per
cent handicap, buying all or the
greater part of his production sup
plies, even for cash, he will have to
skin close and do without a lot of
things he needs to get an even
break.
| If he starts out with a load of
debts, back taxes, and no supplies
then may the Lord have mercy on
his soul, for the depression certainly
will not. Maybe the Red Gross
and the relief committees will helr
him to get started On the road to
self subsistence, until mid sum-
mer, but we have no guarantee
that these agencies will be able to
get much more of the taxpayers
money TO help support farra people
who have not been willing to do
what all good farmers have always
done: Feed themselves from the
soils that God gave man for this
purpose.

Carolina Farm
Facts Cited
Farmer In Best Position Is One
who Produces All Possible
Home Supplies

The farmer who entered 1888
with meaezin his smoke house, corn
in his crib, hay in the loft, bread
in the pantry, a good family COW
and a good year round garden, and
not in debt, is in better position
today than any man in any other
line of business. By continuing to
practice this type of farming he
will be in the best shape of any
man in any other line of business
when we turn the corner"
For the year 1918, the relative
prices of farm commodities COM
pared with the period between 1909
and 1914 was 200; the price of
what the farmer had to buy was
179. This means that the farmer
could take his produce to market
and sell it for twice as much as he
could have from 1909 to 1914 and
then buy what he wanted at 20 per
cent less than the same things he
could have bought between 1902
and 1914. If he bought land he
paid twice as much for, it, which
a great many farmers did do, and
bought it on credit at six per cent
interest.
Now in 1882, what he had to
sell brought 81 cents against S.,
and what he had to purchase cost
him SLIP against s1.7S. In other
words his dollar was worth SLIP
in 1917 and o.525 in 1892, a drop
in his purchasing power of a little
more than So per cent.
He is paying interest on debts
contracted at 200 with money
worth SIS. The question this man
has to ask himself is, Can l make
a profit on farm operations with
this ratio Of buying power against
me and pay interest on 81 debts
with 81 cent dollars?" If he can do
this, he is a whale of a fnancier.
If he doesn't have those 1917
debts, then there is a chance for
him to do little better. If he does
MT have home produced food for
his family, feed for his work stock,
a garden and a COW, he must pay
SLIP for these things with his 81
cent dollar and is handicapped 4S
per cent to begin with. If he can
overcome a 48 per cent handicap,
then he is the best manager and the
cheapest producer in the field to-
day. Can he make money farming
under this handicap.
If he is like the farmer who has
his own supplies and no debts, he
can get by. 1t he has meat, corn,
flour, chickens, eggs, a COW and
other supplies raised on his own
farm, and can use them, he can sci!
these products to himself at the
price he would have to pay for
them if he bought them at the
store or at the relative price of
Slip instead Of selling to someone
else at 81 cents.
Prices of our two chief cash
crops, cotton and tobacco. are in a
relatively better position than most
other farm commodities and %, 4,

Beer Licenses to be Considered
BY Commissioners Next Week

The county commissioners will
meet mex Monday to consider APP
pllcations for beer licenses. The
rush that seemed to characterize
EARL + efforts to obtain permits di-
minished considerably as it was
learned the cost that would be in
yolyed In the handling OF the bev-
erage, together with the volume of
business that would be necessary
before a profit Of any great conse-
quence could be realized to either
retailer or wholesaler.
Brewers have indicated through
their representatives that 1t would
require around $4,000 for d whole
saler to set himself up in business.
That amount of capital doesn't
seem easy to obtain. With the state
license fee of $500 and with that of
the city tentatively set at an equal
amount, retailers are confronted
with the necessity Of dispensing d
larger quantity Of beer in order to
establish a profit.
One prospective retailer has ii
figured this way: a man will have
TO sell 100 bottles at zoe per pint
for each day the brew is permitted
to be on sale to pay the license fees
alone; then to pay for these hundred
pints he will have to sell another
200 on that same day; then. figur-
ing overhead and salaries at from
81 to $40 a day, another hundred
bottles must be sold. That's 400
bottles n day to nay expenses. At
ter that, one can begin to figure
perhaps nc a bottle profit on what
he sells that day. Certainly, there's
something for beer dealers to con-
jure with. AT best, 1t doesn't look

men who signed his petition. Ras-
mussen is supported by the Com
munist element and the Producers
News.
Much interest is being aroused
over the election and n OF the
biggest votes ever to have been cast
In n previous election is freely
predicted. Last year, when the
Communists entered the race for the

whose terms are continued are Mrs

In spite of the fact that the
present board has been confronted
with decreasing incomes in each OF
