TO STOCK It is a serious mistake to suppose that the live stock Industry Is in the ; toe range counties. It may have been at one time, but is not. now. Value Of The last official ea Issued by the Mate Corn- on for show that in the Coastal Plain region t v ii ten half of the there an a law an average of begs per square mile and in counties was partly or entirely open range Here are to the square mile, a difference of less than one hog lo the hundred But the hogs ill the open range are worth only per head or a total of per square mile, while those la the stock law counties are assess- ed per head or over per mile. Even in the mountain counties the same startling values of hogs show- up in assessments. There are about the same number of hogs per square mile In the open range ties, those partly stock law. and those wholly law; but the value of the hogs In the former Is per head, in the second a head and In the full stock law counties they have an average value of ft each. There Is evidently more money In hogs in the counties protected by the stock law. Value of Though there is a slightly greater number of cattle per square listed in the free range counties of eastern North Car- than in the stock law yet the value of these cattle shows conclusively that the law is a benefit also to the cattle industry. In the open range counties tin value of cattle averages per square mile. In those counties that are mostly open range per square mile; in those In which stock law territory occupies the larger part, the value rise to f per square mile. The difference in val- of these cattle is even more In the free range counties the average value of the cattle is per head. those with some stock law territory in those with a large portion of closed territory are worth about per head, while In the stock law counties their value rises to per head, twice as much as in the open range POLITICS 888888888888888888 Frank P.
