It is stated that It will probably not i wise to plant corn after grain in ie Piedmont section, because of the sorter season. For grain lands in lis section, cow peas, soy beans and sanuts are recommended. O REASON FOR HIQH PRICES ON WHEAT SUBSTITUTES Columbia/?The Food Admlni/rtra* on has sent out a warning to corn tillers and to wholesale and retail ealers in corn, barley and oats prod cts that at the present price* of these rains cornmeal and oatmeal should e selling at least twenty per cent slow the price of wheat flour and lat corn flour and barley flour should e selling at leaat ten per cent below heat flour. The high levels ruling in grains as , result of car shortages and storm 1 eather last winter have now fallen laterially with much greater freedom t transportation and the stocks acumulated by manufacturers and tradrs at the prices ruling then should ave been liquidated by this time, 1 the riew of the Food AdminLBtraon. The maintenance of higher { rice levels by millers and wholesalrs will require justification to the1 tate and local administrators,-and allough retailers are not under con-| :ol, wholesalers will be instructed to aaae dealing with retailers who canot jusr.ify their prices on the basis , f the cost of tl^r goods. . r.'.ii&M ' 7 . ; 3 NO REASON FOR HIGH PRICE OIIJMOES i Information For Dealers Who Will Apply To The Food a j Humimsirauon. Columbia.?If there is in South Car-, olina any community where prices of Irish potatoes have nbt decreased to a level which places this food within the reach of all," by reason of the fact that food dealeri have not been abl* to secure potatoen at a wholesale price which will permit of selling them at lower retail prices, the Food Adminis tration is in position to inform such dealers where potatoes can be secured at prices comparable with the surplus stock in South Carolina at the present time. A letter or postal addressed to the Food Administration at Columbia will bring this Information to anyone inquiring. Potatoes are the most plentiful and economical food that consumers can | buy at the present time. south carolina b0y8 ark helping Peed the world Splendid Work of Corn and Pig Club Boys Forms Big Contribution to Food Supply. Columbia.?The report of L. L. Baker, Supervising Agent of Boys' Club Work In South Carolina, recently made to Dr. W. W. Long, Director of Extension Work In this State, a copy of which haB been received by' the food Administration, Illustrates In 'a most forcible and convincing manner how farmer boys can/ on their own responsibility, 'aid materially In the production and conservation of food at thin rrltfoul In thfi world's history when the crying demand of a hungry, fighting world is for more and more food. At the Bame time, the boys are earning money with which to buy Liberty Bonds, thus helping In a double-barreled n anner to help wis the war. Members of the C orn Club In South Carolina produced last year 26,813.21 bushels of corn at (in average cost of > forty cents a bushel the average yield being fifty-three bushels to the acre. Figuring corn at >2.00 per bushel, which is conservative, the total net profit was $42,689.4T. The' total net profit reaultlng from the Boys' Pig Club in the State was $13,998.01. The total net profits ol! South Carolina farmer boys in these two projects for the y?ar was $56,?87.<8. mere is. an euun umu& mauo iu more than double the membership of the' Corn and Pig Clubs during present year. Last year there were 1056 boy# enrolled in Corn Club Work, of whom, however, only 601 reported; and 1,250 boys enrol led in Pig Clubs, of whom only 856 reported.' To assure the success of the Corn and Pig Club work in South Carolina, the oo-operdtion, encouragement and support of the public-spirited citizens is necessary. For instance, last year a number of bankers In different parts of the State helped br offering prizes, and in this way thou lands of dollaVs' worth of pure bred pigs were brought into the State, very materially adding | to the breeding stock of hogs. One of the greatest difficulties has been encountered In suppl ring tne Doys j with pigs. This splendid work of the ; farmer boys of South Carolina has I formed a big contribution to the food supply of the countiy, and it is a work which offers opportunity for many public-spirited people to lend their aid. There will beN more Pig Club boys this year if the pigs to supply them are ofTered?or the money with which to buy pigs?and L. L. Baker, Supervising Ajjent of Boys' Club Work, Bishopvills, S. C., who is In charge of the worlc in this State, | will be glad to hear from any one who j will aid the farmer boys in their efTort j In greater production of food. Offers i addressed to the Chairman of Conservation of the Food Administration for South Carolina, Columbia, will be forwarded to Mr. Baker.

This' means that every bushel of wheat that Is saved in this country by the substitution of cornmeal and other cereals will supply an American or a British or a French or a Belgian or an Italian soldier with bread until the present crisis in the wheat situation has passed. Wheat must now be considered, not1 in terms of dollars and cents, says the Food Administration, but only In its relation to human life. Before the next wheat crop is avail able there remains more than two months In which America la required to feed her own people and to continue exports of flour to the fighting front and to feed the people of the allied countries. The Food Administration asks every person in South Carolina who can do so to abstain from the use of wheat flour in any form until the next bar est. 8WEET POTATOES AS ARMY RATION _____ Big Market Opened to Farmer* of South Carolina , as Sweet Potatoes Will Be Bought by Camp Quarter* matter*. , i Columbia.?The Conservation and' Production division of the Food Administration at Columbia has bqen advised by the Acting Quartermaster. General of the Army at Washington that sweet potatoes are now a substitute component of. the Army ration, and can be use^ in\ place of white potatoes. Last fall a considerable quantity of sweet potatoes were purchased by the Camp Quartermaster, especially. for South camps, and the purchase of sweet potatoes will verj likely be made on a larger scale this year. This opens up a new and ready market for swefet potatoes. It is sug*' gested, in the letter received by the Food Administration, that growers of sweet potatoes in Soath Carolina communicate direct with the Camp Quartermaster of the camps located in this, and nearby States and offec sweet potatoes at the lowest price per hundredweight. Sweet potatoes sold for Army ration must be sacked and delivered at camps in car load lots, and prices named should be only for potatoes in such quantities and delivered, freight prepaid. > i PLENTY CANS AND JARS TO PUT UP PERI8HABLES '( Food Administration Gives Assurance OT nrnpic ouppi/ iwr rui u I willing Canning 3eason. Columbia.?Assurance is given the people of South Carolina by the Conservation and Production division of the Food Administration that not only will there be tin cans in sufficient quantity for canning during the. forthcoming season, but that an ample supply of glass jai^s will also be available. It is also assured that water glass may be secured by all who de sire to put up eggs ror winter use. Any locality" that may be short on any of these necessaries for canning and preserving fruit> and vegetables and for putting up eggs will be put In touch with sources of supply If interested persons will write the Food Administration at Columbia. Jobbers and wholesalers In several of the larger cities of the State have laid in ample stocks of tins and glass jars, and the list of these Is on file with the Food Administration. The druS stores in the smaller towns may secure water glass for the retail trade from the wholesale drug houses, or if they cannot supply them, a letter addressed to the Food Administration at Columbia will solve the problem.

ODD FELLOWS ASKED TO GIVE UP EATING WHEAT Columbia.?Lodges of Odd Fellows throughout South Carolina and the Individual members of this great organization have been called upon by the officers of the Sovereign Grand Lodge for support of the program of the Food Administration to save wheat. All Odd Fellows are urged through the Sovereign Grand Lodge to voluntarily abstain from the use of wheat foods until after the next harvest. There are in the United States about 2,300,000 Odd Fellows. The membership of this order in South Carolina is very large, and there will no doubt be a generous and a patriotic response to the appeal to save wheat to help feed the fighting forces of America and the allies and the people of the allied countries. To w-jte wheat Is to waate young ( American manhood at the front? AVE it. TO DARKEN HAIR APPLY n Look Young! Bring Back Itf I Natural CokrtV Gloss and " Attractiveness. ??
