ManniuR. in a call to the patriotism of
the people of the rural sections of
ftoutta Carolina, urges that neighbors
lend of their time to help work the I
crops on farms from which men have
been drafted into the army. The gor ruor's
statement follows:
"The necessity of sending men over
seas as rapidly as possible is greater
than ever before. More and more
men must be drafted in to the army.
The War Department finds It impos- t
sfble to (rant furloughs to thee# men
who have been called away from the
farms. The need of men is greater

A professional man says It costs t,H

This Includes oil, wear and tear, In- Gf
aurunce and upkeep generally. Once a ov
week he drives to the country and buys yn
supplies, butter, eggs, chickens, ap- an
ple&. potatoes, etc. Sometimes he cov- gu
ers 50 miles on a trip. Thus, accord- fOI
lng to his own estimates, his expense ,jUl
v would be fully $3,50 for the 50 tidies, pa
