of the members of his church, but
of residents, irrespective of denomi-
nation, throughout this entire COM

NORTHAMPTON LEADS
IN POTATO CULTURE

Northampton County, Virginia, led
the State in Irish potato production
in 1884, according to preliminary
report for the 1885 Federal Farm
Census released this week by Director
William L. Austin, Bureau of the
Census, Department of Commerce.
With a production of 4,275,012
bushels in 1884, Irish potato produc-
ton in Northampton County exceed
ed the production in Accomack Coun-
ty by approximately 100000 bushels,
Accomack, however, led the State in
the combined production of Irish and
sweet potatoes. These two counties
produced about three-fifths of all the
Irish potatoes reported in the State
potatoes reported in the States of Vir-
ginia, New Jersey, Delaware, Mary
land, Kentucky, Missouri, and Kan
sas. These seven states produce prac-
tically all the potatoes that compete
with the Eastern Shore as to season
of marketing.
The acreage of Irish potatoes in
Northampton county in 1884 was IA
per cent less than in 1929. Corn acre
age decreased per cent and hay acre
age increased about one-half.
Of significance, in regard to chang
es in livestock numbers is decrease
in humber of horses from 1870 in
1880 to 1880 in 1885. The number of
mules remained practically unchanged
Hogs showed a decrease of 40 per
cent while the number of cattle in
creased over so per cent.
Contrary to the general tendency
throughout the country, fewer farms
were reported in Northampton County
in 1925 than in 1880. The average
size of farms increased from TOP to
85.2 acres, and the average value de-
creased from $165.21 to 1888 per
acre.
The 1885 figures in this and similar
releases are preliminary and subject
to revision.

verify to necessitate medical atten-
ton resulted when four persons in
Milford wore shoes which had too
recently been dyed with an aniline
preparation. The dye not having had
chance to dry completely, the per-
spiration of their feet served to draw
it into their systems, and severe tox-
ic conditions resulted.
So far as could be determined in
the laboratory of the State Board of
Health, the dyeing material used con-
tanned aniline, which upon introduce
ton into the human blood stream will
break down the red corpuscles and
seriously impair the oxygen-carrying
capacity Of the blood. Nitrobenzine
is one of the frequent and decidedly
harmful ingredients of shoe polishes
and dyes, and even deaths have been
reported from it's absorption, accord
ing to the official U. S. DISPENSE
tory. In 1919 the Journal of the
American Medical Association carried
Stifel's deductions from his research
into the properties Of nitrobenzine,
in which he reported cases of severe
poisoning from the use Of shoe dye
containing this chemical from which
aniline is derived.
According to the State health au-
thorities, shoes which have been dyed
are safe to wear, providing time is
allowed for them to dry completely.
They state also that wearing recent
ly-dyed shoes with thick socks is more
dangerous than with thin hosiery, for
the heavy socks encourage perspira-
ton which tends to soften the dye and
draw it into the system.
