HKVOXD THE NIGHT. ,
By Mrs. O. Simmons I
Sometime we will drltf with the ailver
tide
Neath a starry sky, where the sea is
wide.
To return no more to this barvtn
shore
For we linger there where they sor
row ho more.
All must embark on this silent suest.
To an unknown land tilled with joy
and rest.
So our sails must be set and our gar
ments white
When our signal comes on some
dreamless night.
Then w# II gather our oars and move
out to sea
To a blissful reward, that will endless
be.
And by faith will follow a guiding
hand
To to pearly dawn In a fadeless land.

"The acreage distribution of North
Carolina crops ia clearly shown to be
fairly well diversified, not only for
certain Piedmont counties, but for the
State as a whole, or instance, corn
ranks as the leading crop, with about
2.250.000 acres; cotton comes second,
with approximately 1,360.000 acres.
Then come hays with probably more
than 750.000 acres.
"Tobacco is fourtn. with the 1932 j
acreage at probably less than 500.000 |
acres, but with 690,000 shown for ’93'. :
Peanuts have an acreage of approxi- !

probably reach near 300.000 acres in i
1932. Wheat will be considerably more !
than that. Even commercial truck I
crops probably total nearly 100,000
acres when considering the local mar
