plenty of persons interested
enough in the towns business to
file for office. This is a healthy
situation. We feel that although
the jobs are thankieSS ones and
actually financial burden on
those who win them, that citizens
should nevertheless have enough
interest in the community TO seek
these elective offices.
We personally feel that the pres
ent administration has been a sue
ceSsful one. Certainly the progress
in street improvement has been
highly noteworthy and there have
been no more Squabbles than
would have existed under any ad-
ministration. 1t is impossible, in
our opinion, to operate the peoples
business for a two year period
without having a certain amount
OF controversies arise.
These controversies cannot al
ways be worked out so that eve
ryone will be happy but so long
as these decisions are r. ldered in
an honest manner, in a way that
the majority of the people favor.

CASH RECEIPTS FROM FARM
MARKETINGS IN 1852

Raleigh, N. c.. April 2, 1862:
North Carolina farmers received
S929,94S,000 from the sale of their
products in 1852 or almost 2 per-
cent less than in 1851.
Receipts from the sale of live
stock at S203 ,557 900 were 4 per-
cent greater than a year earlier.
However, receipts from drops
dropped 3.i percent below 1851.
Crop sales in the State totalled
S726,39l 900 in 1852 compared
with $751;. $4,000 the preceding
year.
In total cash receipts from farm

it is as it should be. Elective offic-
ers are merely servants of the
people and the majority opinion
should be followed as closely as
possible.
Personally, we have never been
involved in any election for any
public office. This time, I guess
we will. We will seek office with
sincere desire to do a good job
under any circumstances and with
out fear or favor.
If we lose, there will be no
resentment here. We have plenty
worry about as things now stand.
There's always plenty of activity
for anyone, even as a private citi-
zen. to work for a better COM
munity and strive for continued
progress for all.

Revised estimates place 1852 chick
hatchings in North Carolina at

the 58,890,000 chicks Matched dur

has increased rapidly since l947
when only 35.64O.OOO chicks were

The rapid increase in hatchery
production during the past few
years is directly attributable to
the growth of the commercial

number of commercial broilers
produced in l947 totalled l6,l82,-
900 while in 1852. 100000 broil-

This has been the poorest sea-

wildfowl gunners to blame the
weather for the many failures
to bag game in their hunting
trips, and basically. weather is
probably at the bottom of their
hard luck. Part of the weather
break is due to early-season
