INCREASE I'M FARM
INCOME REPORTED
North Carolina Revenue Fo,
First Quarter Amounts
To S2S,362,00

RALEIGH, June 2. - Cash in
come of North Carolina farmers
for the first quarter of 1910 was
higher than for the first quarter of
1889, either with or without Gov
eminent payments, H. w. Taylor,
Extension marketing specialist of
N. c. State college. reported today.
This contrasts with a slight decline
in farm income for the South At
lantic region as a whole.
North Cardinals cash farm in
come, including Government pay
ments, for the first quarter of this
year totaled $2S, 1862. 900. as COM
pared with 50. 799. 600 during the
first three months of 1889.
The report of the U. S. Bureau of
Agricultural Economics quoted by
Taylor shows that income from
marketings in the South Atlantic
States declined 6 percent from the
first quarter marketings last year.
Largely responsible for this was
the drop in income from grains,
apples, and vegetables in Mary
land, and the smaller marketings
of fruits and vegetables in Florida,
Largest increases in income
were in North Carolina, where re-
turns from tobacco up sharp

Taylor said that from January

for a total of $22, 967, 900 cash from
farm marketings, plus S., 1895, 900
from Government payments, which
raised the total cash farm income
to S28, 1862, 600. During the first

Investigations by the office of

,holIt one-half of the shipments of
United States leaf to continental

and Belgian ports.
of that amount. approximately
q 900. 900 pounds are held for use
in the Netherlands and Belgium.
The remainder of more than II.
MO 900 pounds of various types of
leaf has moved on to other Europ-
can countries either by direct ship.
ment or after being held in sto-
rage.
AGENCIES in both of these low
countries have been accustomed to
carry slzeable stocks of American
tobacco not only for supplying do
nestle manufacturers but also for
sale and reshipment TO other Euro
pean countries.
For example. much of the Amer
lean tobacco used in Switzerland
had been stored for a time in Bel
gian warehouses. No exact data
are available as to the size Of
stocks of United States leaf now
in the two low countries. but U. S.
foreign relations experts think
these stocks total more 40, 00.Q0
pounds.
Across the channel, England has
greatly c~urtailed her purchases of
American leaf and is now securing
larger quantities of tobacco from
empire sources Or from countries
which stand in a position as Allies.
Normally, DR.. Schaub stated, the
British market has been an outlet
or nearly tWo-thirds of the flue-
cured leaf exported from the
United States, or nearly one-third
IF the annual production. North
Carolina is the nations largest pro-

Exports of this leaf to England
are now at a low ebb, and the use
Of competitive types has been step

from countries ruled wholly or in

81 per cent of the total leaf used
IN the last five months of 1889.
This compared with less than 25
per cent during the first seven
months Of the year, or the months
Before the beginning of the present
conflict.
However, DR.. Schaub said, there
may be some hope in the present
situation. u. S. foreign relations
men point out that as stocks of
American flue-cured leaf in Bri-
tam and other European countries
are exploited, the importing nations
