'ialUii ouiuier w iin bread uniii the present crisis in the wheat situa tion has passed. Wheat must now be considered, noi In terms of dollars and cents, says th< ? Pood Administration, but only In Hi relation to human life. Before the next wheat crop is avail able there remains mora than two months in which America Is required to feed her own people and to con* tlnue exports of flour to the lighting front and to feed the people of the allied countries. ? The Food Administration asks ev ery person in South Carolina who can do so to abstain fr6m the use of wheat flour in any form until the next har vest. SWEET POTATOE8 A8 ARMY RATION """ Big Market Opened to farmers of South Carolina as Sweet Potatoes Will Be Bought by Camp Quarter masters. Columbia.? The Conservation and Production division of the Food Ad ministration at Columbia has been advised by the Acting Quartermaster General of the Army at Washington that sweet potatoes kre now a substi tute component of the Army ration, and can be used in place of white potatoes. - Last fall a considerable quantity of sweet potatoes were pur chased by the Camp Quartermaster, ?specially for South camps, and ths purchase of sweet potatoes will very likely be made on a larger scale this year. This opens up a new and ready market for sweet potatoes. It is sug gested. in the lettei received by the Food Administration, that growers of sweet potatoes In South Carolina com municate direct with the Camp Quar termaster o t the camps located In this and neafby States and offec sweet potatoes at the lowest price per hun dredweight. ? - ? . Sweet potatoes sold for Army ra tion 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. _ PLENTY CANS AND JARS TO PUT UP PERISHABLES Food Administration Gives Assurance pf Ample 8upply for Forthcom ing Canning Season. Columbia. ? Assurance is give^i the people of South- Carolina by thje Con servation and Production division of the Food Administration that not I only will there be tin cans in suffi cient quantity for canning during the forthcoming season, but that an ample supply of glass Jars wljl also be avail able. It is also assured that water glass* may be secured by all who de sire to put up eggs for winter use. Any locality that may be short on any of these necessaries for canning and preserving fruits and "vegetables and for putting up eggs will be put in touch with sources of supply if inter ested persons will write the Food Ad ministration at Columbia. Jobbers and wholesalers in several of the larger cities of the Stat* have laid in ample stocks of tins aid glass jars, and the list of these Is on file with the Food Administration. The drug stores in the smaller towns may secure water glass for the retail trade from the wholesale drug honn?e, or if they cannot supply then, a Utter addressed to the Food Administration at Columbia will solve the problaaa. Announcement has already been made that ample sugar will be a rail able, to be secured on a certificate sys tem, for canning and preserving. ODD FELLOWS ASKED TO GIVE UP EATING WHEAT Columbia. ?
