Living Standards
Low In Mountains
In West Carolina

College Station, Raleigh, Dec. I'll
Low levels of living as measured in
material terms and evidences of a
"backing-up'' of rural youth during
the depression is shown by a study
of standards of living in four south
ern Appalachian counties, conducted
jointly by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics and the Farm Security
Administration
Miss Pauline Gordon, home man
agement specialist of the State Col
lege Extension Service, made public
results of the survey, which included
Avery and Haywood counties in North
Carolina. She quoted DR.. Carl G.
Taylor, of the Bureau of Agriculture
al Economics, as warning in the fore
word against the assumption that
"non-material standards of living
also are necessarily low.
Magoffin and Morgan counties in
Kentucky were the other areas stu
died. The circumstances of SIG flmi-
lies, 1873 of them farm families living
in the open country, and SO of them
non-farm village families, were OBJ
served
Striking among the findings is
that the average value of the living
for these families in 1885 was 1862
for farm owners, $426 for tenants
and $798 for villagers, or respective
ly $143, $87 and $z1O per capita
Few studies of farm families" the
report comments, "have indicated
such low values"
