This announcement ha been made by the Conservation an Production Division of the Food A< ministration, which lias been worl ing on the problem of marketing < home-canned products for the pas two months. A number of the lea< ing wholesale grocers and jobbers ( the State have not only expresse their willingness to buy home-canne fruita and vegetables properly pri pared for commercial use, but wi give the home-canned product th preference over Maryland and Vi: I glnla packed goods. . L The Food Administration has o file the requirements of several larg concerns and has been asked to fin the canned products to Bupply thej needs.

It is suggested tha farmers and others who desire to pu upfrults and vegetables for the marke form marketing agencies, in order tha their product may be handled in lan e( lots to a greater advantage. The grades must "be uniform an certain standards maintained. Th canned product must of course be pu up in uniform cases, and the cans un j formly labelled. | Contracts for fall .deliveries shoul be made now or in the very nea future. Canning clubs, community clubs o ' marketing agencies with large quai | titles of canned fruits and vegetable to offer for Bale phould write the Foo Administration, Conservation and Pk ; duction Division, at Columbia, statin | what they have to offer at the presen time or what they will have to delive In the fall, stating the price desire and all Information. The Food Administration will mak no purchases or sales, but it may serv as a connecting link to bring the pacV ers and the dealers together. As has already been * announced there will be plenty of cans and jar available for home canners during th coming season. Communities that ar not supplied should report to the Foo Administration at Columbia, and mei chants will be put In touch wit) sources of supply upon request. A1 tractive stock labels can be bough at a very low price.

">fo statement of this character ha ever been issued," says Mr. Hoover and the federal food administrate then states frankly the exact situatioi which emphasizes the absolute nece; sity of even greater conservation o wheat than the American people hav yet practiced. For that reason the ar peal was recently made to the Amerl eaa people, through the churches, b; Mr. Hoover, asking that every on who possibly can do so discontinu eating wheat or wheat products in an; form until the next harvest.

The climate of Florida not agreef, ing with Mr. Tillman, and his healtfc e failing, he returned to South Carole lina to take up farming again in A Edgefield. At this time there wafc ^ no thought whatever in his mind of turning to public life. In the eigHt ties, however, the price of cottoti was so low, a great many farmers 1 were in a bad way, and Capt.

Greatly depressed in spirits and worriefd s- about the future, he reached the l" conclusion that his real trouble, and 0 ? that of most of the farmers he knew t was that they did not know their business. "What we need," he said to himself, "is agricultural educap tion," and when he got home he immediately sat down and wrote a n letter to The News and Courier urgi ing that the State take in hand the 8 matter of fitting the farmers of * South Carolina for doing their work competently and looking after their s affairs intelligently, as the quickest and surest means of promoting the r ! prosperity of the Commonwealth. J1 j This was in 1886 and when Capt. I; Tillman began his agitation he had e j no intention of going into politics. ' j He had never made a speech and did [not believe that he could make one. 0 He could write with good effect, how e ever, and the conditions of the times 7 favored the movement which he had initiated.
