YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO NEGLECT YOUR FRUIT TREES "No Leg* No Horse, No Tree No Fruit," Prune, Spray, Worm, Cultivate and Plant?Ask Your County Agent Under normal conditions the im portance of the home orchard in suteplmenting the family food sup ply is too great to be estimated. Therefore, with the invasion of the cotton boll weevil?a menace to! the South's money crop and a post to remain with us?and the abnor mal prices of all foodstuffs, a few fruit trees should be planted about every home. Fall and winter months are best for orchard work and there j * * U is only one xmng mat payo uuici than having a sound knowledge of how to care for the orchard and that , is to use it and make your's the best fruit trees in the county. The mere ( fa^t of a high priced fruit tree hav- ^ ing been planted does not insure ( fruitful returns, and if this is not . property cared for all the owner gets for his labor and money invest-1, ed is a esse of disappointment We , urge yoti to begin at once and ei- ( tber plant a few trees or prune, , spray^and cultivate those that you', already have giving these a fair chance, and note results. The shortage of good trees and' ( vines with the prevailing high prices j of fruft^shouki be accepted as an ; object lesson and the combination 13 ought to encourage the planting of j a few fruit rees o ever^ farm and better attention given to the old or- ( chwrd. If you have a homo orchard^' or even scattered plantings of a few. fruit trees worthy of attention be-1 gin at oncf to prune, spray andj worm and cultivate; otherwise, ar- (1 range to plant one-fourth acre (ap- ( proximately 30 trees and vines.) At < this time, trees and vines enough to ' plant one-fourth acre, which is . enough to supply the average fami-.' ly will cost between $10.00 and $15. < You can't afford to neglect your or- j i chard as the fruit tree, not unlike < man, will grow sick whey neglected. < In conjunction with the county ' agents throughout the State a cam- 1 \ paign of winter pruning, spraying ' and related orchard work is already in various counties. The Hor ticultural Specialists of the Exten sion Service, Clemson College, S. C., have arranged and are now carrying out a schedule by which to spend 1 one to three days iwrth each county 1 agent.

HOUSE FOR REPEAL OF* WAR TIME LAWS A Vote on Adoption of Resolution Re sults in Unanimous Decision Washington, Dec. 14.?Repeal of, most of the war time laws was voted. today by the house which adopted the Volstead resolution for that purpose after two hours of debate. | The vote on adoption of the res-| olution was unanimous, 323 votes being recorded as favoring it with| none opposed. The house before j taking the final vote accepted an i amendment providing for inclusion! of the Lever food control act among. the laws which the resolution would repeal. The amendment, which covers all provisions of the food control act, with the exception of the'section re% lating to rents in the District of ^ ? * - -** J L.. I^oiumoia, was oiiexeu uy xvc^/ji c sentative Bland, Republican, of Indiana. It was carried by a vote of 179 to 137. Few Exemption* Made The resolution, -which now goes to the senate, exempts from repeal c*nly the trading with the enemy act the war finance corporation act and its amendments and measures deal ing with the issuance of Liberty and Victory bonds. The resolution declares "any act of congress that by its terms is in force only during the existence of a state of war and a limited time thereafter shall be construed arid administered as if the present war terminated on the date' which this resolution becomes effective." Similar Measure Vetoed The measure, as adopted, is prac tically identical with that passed by congress just before the adjourn ment of the last session and vetoed by Fresident Wilson. Republican leaders of the house asserted tonight that adoption ofi TPsnltition was one of the first! steps taken by the Republican ma jority to fulfill the campaign pledge to put the country on a peace time basis. Disposition of the Volstead res olution clears the way for consider ation of the resolution offered by Representative Reeves, Republican, of Nebraska, which would provide for a congressional survey of the government's administrative de partments. A special rule limiting debate will be presented tomorrow by Chairman Campbell of the rules committee and action on the floor will foHow a vote on the adoption of the rules.
