pin I iS SEEK UFIED I pi Flour Can Now Be Shipped Into State j Without Permits, But Wheat Con|j| scrvattion Still la Necessary. I ; Columbia.?The embargo on flour, irhich has been in effect in South ; H 'Carolina, has been raised by order of : |$ 'William Elliott, food administrator for H the State. Since May 15, during the l| -time the embargo on flour has been ? on in this State, shipments of flour | -were made into South Carolina only ? on permits from the Fpod Administra-' I tion. The lifting of \the embargoj | means that there may be free move| ment of flour into the State, without permits, nereaiter. me eniDnrgu sei ved to cut down shipment of flour from the mills at a critical- time and through I & period of extreme shortage so far i as the wheat supply was concerned. During the embargo, however, there was free movement of flour from one i part of the State to another, and no section suffered, which was seen to ! by the Food Administration. With the coming In of the new; wheat crop there will be relief in the situation, but this does not mean that , the public will.be relieved from wheat saving. Conservation is still vitally necessary. A hungry, fighting world is to be fed. Only in the United States will there be enough wheat,! -and the harvest will provide enough j in this country only if the people con- i form with the Food Administration rules and regulations. SUGAR OBTAINABLE ONLY IN SMALL LOTS I : * " Purchases for Household Use Limited i by Food Administration -Sugar Can; j Be Secured for Cannir^ and Preserving. Columbia.?Under new regulations I Issued by the Food Administration and which hare already gone into ef- j tectt, sugar for household use cannot j be purchased in larger lots than two ' pounds by persons residing in cities I and towns, or in larger than five! pound lots by persons residing in ru- j ral sections. JThese new regulations j have been rendered necessary by the sugar shortage, which has become se- j *rious. It is unlawful for any dealer to violate this rule, and the seriousi Bess of the situation as regards sugar | -calls for the most rigid economy in j its use. For canning and preserving frnits j and vegetables, which is regarded as very important by the Food Administration, sugar can be obtained in lots up to 25 pounds, but not more than 25 pouids will be sold to any one per- j tofe-aon in any one month for canning j 9 and preserving. W It is necessary, in order to obtain j m sugar lor canning and preserving pur- j; poses, that the purchaser sign a A pledge blanhs for which the dealer j ? has on hand, these being furnished j 9 by the Food Administration. The pur- j % chaser pledges himself to use the I sugar -so-obtained for canning and pre' serving purposes only, and to return to the dealer any portion of the sugar! I. mot used for such -purpose. Dealers L 'will strictly enforce this rule. m The public is urged by the Food Ad-! I ministration to save every possible ! r spocnfnl of sugar. There is none to j1 . -waste. As a mat'or cf fact, the sugar !1 rV-jsituation is serious. Cuban deliveries : have been shorter than were expected. ' ] Consumption has been larger. Sub- ; marine losses have been heavy, and a , reduction of sugar consumption all ' I along the line becomes -absolutely nec-!' ossary, says the Feed Administration. 11 . |? ONLY NECESSARY USE !: OF ICE PERMITTED < 1 Bulletin Issued by Food Admlnistra- ' tion Points Out Sources of lae Waste Which Should Be Avoided. j ] Calumbia?Theh necessity of con- ' serving ice becomes important with the 1 summer months ahead, and the Food , Administration for South Carolina has * issued a bulletin in which some pre- ] |j cautionary suggestions are made. "The call for conservation of ice is prompted not by any anticipated ehortage, but in the general interest j ' of thrift and the saving of supplies j essential to other important indus- !' tries," says the bulletin. | < The following suggestions are mada to indicate sources of wastte of ice: I; "The practice of shaving ice for i, restaurants, soda fountains, etc., should be eliminated. "If ice becomes scarce In a community at any time, a rigorous effort should be made to curtail its- use by concerns dealing in luxuries before any reduction is attempted in the amount allowed families using it la moderation. "Householders should be advised to keep the refrigerator in a cool place, to see that refrigerator doors close tightt, and not to put warm feod ha j refrigerators to cool at the expease of j theice. "Ico should not be used in serving fruit and sea food. 8erred dfreet j from the refrigerator they are eokl enough. Ice shoisld be saved by serr? ing no more than necessary im glasseo of water, tea and other drinks. "The public should not be hysterical; over the danger of ao actual foe fluih, inc.

CALOMEL DYNAMITES A SLUGGISH LIVER Crashes into sour bile, making you j sick and you lose a day's work i . Calomel salivates! It's mercury. | Calomel acts like dynamite on a siugj gish liver. When calomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea. If you feel bilious; headachy;consti pated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and get a bottle of Dod son's Liver Tone for a few cents! which is a harmless vegetable substi j tute for dangerous calomel. Take a| spoonful and if it doesn't sart your; liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty calomel and with out making you sick, you just go back, and get your money. If you take calomel today you'll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake nn fpplinfy crpat full of ambition and r ?o c? j ? . ready for work or play. It's harm! less, pleasant and safe to give to chil den; they like it. DEMOCRATS MUST ENROLL Under the rules of the party there: must be an enrollment of all voters each election year.

All demo crats of 21 years of age or who will be 21 before the general election ini November are entitled to enrollment, j Each club has its enrollment com! mittee whose duty it is to see that; every democrat in the club district j has his name properly enrolled on the j book of enrollment. Be sure to enroll! otherwise you cannot vote in the pri mary. In enrolling your name, write the name in full. That is to say, if i your name is "John Jackson Smith," j do not write it J J Smith or John .Jj Smith but John Jackson Smith. The' enrollment committees must make no j mistake about this. And where an j applicant cannot write his name but j makes his mark, the same must be; witnessed by the member of the en! rolling committee before whom he; enrolls. 1785 1918 COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON South Carolina's Oldest College 134th Year Begins Sept. 27 Entrance examinations at all the; ounty seats Friday, July 12 at 9 a. m.
