Book Description
Excerpt from Tenancy and Ownership Among Negro Farmers in Southampton County, Virginia The principal form of wealth owned by the persons-interviewed was farm land and the equipment requisite for its Operation. Table 8 contains a classification of these holdings. Although more than half of the owners had holdings of less than 100 acres and nearly 70 per cent under 150 acres, there were 6 with 500 acres or over and 23 with 250 acres or more. Only 3 tenants and 1 cropper had ever owned land, and only 2 tenants and 1 cropper owned land at the time of the Survey.

Book Description
Excerpt from Rural Land Ownership Among the Negroes of Virginia: With Special Reference to Albemarle County The present essay, which for simplicity has been divided into seven chapters, is the result of the writer's investigations during his incumbency of the phelps-stokes Fellowship at the Univer sity of Virginia during the session of 1914 - 15. While the sub ject is too great to be treated adequately in so limited a time it is hoped that the following pages may at least suggest the dif ferences in economic condition between urban and rural negroes and eventually, perhaps, lead to an exhaustive study of the sub ject. Like all social questions the negro problem must be an alyzed under the special conditions of time and place before there can be any intelligent basis for action, and it was with the purpose of increasing the present inadequate fund of such knowledge that the present study was undertaken.

Book Description
Excerpt from Phelps-Stokes Fellowship Studies, No; 7, Vol. 25: An Economic Study of Negro Farmers as Owners, Tenants, and Croppers The Phelps-Stokes Fellowship was established for the purpose stated in the following resolutions: "Whereas. Miss Caroline Phelps Stokes in establishing the Phelps-Stokes Fund was especially solicitous to assist in improving the condition of the negro, and "Whereas, It is the conviction of the Trustees that one of the best methods of forwarding this purpose is to provide means to enable southern youth of broad sympathies to make a scientific study of the negro and of his adjustment to American civilization. "Resolved, That twelve thousand five hundred dollars ($12,500) be given to the University of Georgia for the permanent endowment of a research fellowship, on the following conditions: "1. The University shall appoint annually a Fellow in Sociology, for the study of the Negro. He shall pursue advanced studies under the direction of the departments of Sociology, Economics, Education or History, as may be determined in each case by the Chancellor. The Fellowship shall yield $500, and shall, after four years, be restricted to graduate students. "2. Each Fellow shall prepare a paper or thesis embodying the result of his investigations which shall be published by the University with assistance from the income of the fund, any surplus remaining being applicable to other objects incident to the main purpose of the Fellowship. A copy of these resolutions shall be incorporated in every publication issued under this foundation. "3. The right to make all necessary regulations, not inconsistent with the spirit and letter of these resolutions, is given to the Chancellor and Faculty, but no changes in the conditions of the foundation can be made without the mutual consent both of the Trustees of the University and of the Phelps-Stokes Fund." This study is sane, graphic and, in my opinion, valuable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
