higher prices and more income.
The figures on North Cardinal
farm income in the regular quar-
terly report issued by the De-
partment just recently are a good
illustration of how the public l..
geing boldly handed false infor-
nation.
The report said that NORTH
Carolina farmers had received
over three million ollars NOR,
in cash marketings during the
first nine months of 1857 thar
the same period of 1856.
This information is in \ report
that starts out, in summarizinc

ton, as follows:
Far mincome is up a httl,
more this year. making two years
of gain following four conSecu-
tive years of decline"
The implication of the report
and actual statement of facts
can Ne nothing other than that
North Carolina farmers will in
crease their income this year over
las, year. This isn't true, and
any informed person IN the De-
partmcut will admit it when he
is pinned down.
The most conservative esti-
mates show that farm income IN
North Carolina tbs year will b
about $50 million dollars less
than what it was last year. To
imply from this that farmers
are really better off is dishonesty
The Department. in trying to
explain. has said that the regular
niue-month's report does not
undertake 10 show what three
quarters of the entire years in
come will be. but rather what
the actual situation is as of the
last day of September, that l.
on the date of the end OF the
third quarter. When pressed. they
admit that sales will drop dras-
tically in the final quarter and
the total for the year will be of
considerably.
This. too. is inconsistent and
dishonest. because in order tc
compute the latest report - the
third quarter report - the De-
par,ment threw in soil bank pay
mcnts for the entire year and
every other conceivable incom,
item to make the report as roS}
as possible. regardless of how
the truth was trampled.
After so many farmers hav,
lost confidence in the Department
rs it i now operated, it seem
that some feeble effort would l.,
made to give AT least ar hone
presentation and interpretation
o. the facts.
