Tmmcj iVces LmI Year Caoslng
Mabj to Plant That Never Grew
Potatoes Before.
From all Indication at the pres
ent time there will be the larsest
area planted to Irish potatoes in
Colleton county*this year than ever
before in the history of the county.
It Is estimated that there Will be be
tween 1.000 and 1,500 acres plant
ed. and if It should be a favorable
season*there will be a bumper crop
harvested. * In Colleton county is
found some of the finest potato land
In the South, and this valuable crop
U becominc mbre popular with our
farmers each year.
Irish potatoes is considered s
very risky erop, due to the enormous
expense of planting, harvesting and
marketing them, but not so much
In Colleton county as farther South.
In this section where the seasons
are long and mild, potatoes can be
followed by corn, cotton and other
staple crops without the use of ad
ditional fertilizer for the second
crop. In thk way the planters fie
ure th&t if the potato crop should
be a partial, or >vpn a complete
failure, or if they should fall _tc
bring profitable prices on the mar
ket, the second crop can be made to
help defray t^ie expense of growing
the potatoes.
The fancy prices paid for the
Southern ctjop last year stimulated
Interest in the potato industry anfl
induced many of our farmers to
plant on a large scale thia year who
had never before given more thag
'a passing thought to the proposi
tion. Sanders and Lemacks, of Rit
ter, and the Combahee Corporation,
of White Hall, have been large po
tato growers for several years, and
have made a great success with the
crop. Among those whom we know
are going to plant this year we men
tion the following, /together with
the number of acres each will plant.
There will be numbers of one and
two acre patches all over the coun-
tv, but we only mention here those
who will plant five acres or more.

The National Food Administra
tion has gleen authority for a modi
fication of tne pound-for-pound law
In order to give, relief to the farm
er in' South Carolina who has' his
corn ground locally. Much dissatis
faction has been caused among farm
ers. who felt that it was unreason
able to ask them to buy northern
or western meal when they had their
own home ground meal which they
could use. There was no protest
concerning reduction of the con
sumption of flour, hut simply that
the farmer did not wish-to buy meal
from his store when he had better
meal or grits at home.
Under the new rule the farmer
can have his corn ground by a mill
er. who will-give him a certificate.
This certificate must be filed with the
grocer by the farmer, whereupon he
can buy N an equal amount of flour,
not in excess of half a barrel.
This plan was recommended hy
practically the unanimous vote of
County Food Administrators-at their
meeting In Columbia on the 4th
instant, and has been advocated by
a large number of prominent peo
ple having knowledge of conditions
in South Carolina. ' • . xV
The National Administration was
by wire immediately consulted about
it. and on Saturday gave its consent
to the plan. For the information
of. County Food Administrators and
food representatives over this state,
millers ,and farmers, the following
is a description of the procedure
necessary to obtain, flour upon a
miner’s certificate.
The farmer takes his corn to tho
mill and has it ground. v^He signs
a certificate which the millers will
have, stating number in his family
or tenants for which he buys, the
amount of flour he has on hand
r.nd agreeing to use in his house
hold equal weights of flour and
substitutes.” Thereupon the miller
signs-a certificate as-to lbe number
of pounds' or meal ground. This
'certificate Is then /iled with the
grocer, and thereupon the farmer
can buy an equal weight of flour.’
but in no rare in excess of one-half
barrel.
This relieves the only difficulty
that has been encountered ih South
Carolina.
There has been no objection what
soever to the reduction in consump
tion of flour, and the farmer haa
been patriotically ready to reduce
his consumption of flour, but he
very naturally did not desire to buy
more of what he already had an
abundance in his home.
Blanks are being mailed to the
County Food Administrators for dis
tribution to millers. They were
mailed yesterday afternoon. Millers
should apply to the County Food Ad-
',o.« ' 1lln ‘*t™tor of. JR* countv for the

Met With President
The January meeting of the Wo
man’s Missionary Society of tho
Methodist Episcopal church was
held at the home of the president,
Mrs. E. E. Jones, on Thursdsiy af
ternoon, January 24th. The at
tendance waji not as large as had
been expected, but n very interest
ing meeting was held, and the so
ciety was glad to welcome as new
members* Mrs. E. H. Beckham and
Miss Betty Beckham. The treas
urer made a full report of the
year's work, which showed a total
of 9123.46 raised. In addition to
the membership dues the society
contributee 650.00 each year to the
pledge fund for new work. This
$50.00 is used to educate a native
Japanese worker. The members at
this meeting subscribed liberally to
the pledge, and it is hoped that the
entire $50.60 can be raised without
having to resort to candy sales, ba
zaars. etc., as this is certainly not
the way our Lord expects us to
give. Let the offerings be) made
liberally and cheerfully.
The February meeting of the
society will be held on Thursday af
ternoon of next week, February 21,
at the home of Mrs. H. W. Black.
Sr. f at /4 o'clock. An interesting
and instructive program' has *been
