Present abtiormal conditions
imtlwt agricultural and financial
situation of ouv St^ate requires
serious thought j^y» y all of our'
people, but especially by our
farmers.
*'• The following are some
of the more prominent features
requiring oonsideration : -J
1. The abnormal farm profits
ranging, I estimate, at from four
to ten times the average in dif
ferent parts of the State. ?
2. The great ; 9careify and
high prices of fertilizers, present
prices being about 60 per cent,
higher than Jasfc’year.
3. The scarcity and high
price of food products. This con
dition will certainly last as long
as the war. ’ '
4. The presence in our State
of the boll weevil, w’hich may
be -expected to cover the entire
State within two years and
seriously affect cotton produc
tion in 1919of 1920;
5. The inadequate and con
gested transportation facilities
by both land and water. >
6. The obligation which
rests upon every citizen to
loyally respond to the needs of
our f government at war?
7 r There is y ahundnnt evidence
that many of our people are
engaged in a perfect orgy
money spending. I was tqki^to
day of a large pjuntatjofi upon
‘which the tenants riiad -each
made a net profitpf from $o00.()0
to l^oOO.Oo/itud that all of
those tenauts . together qould
probably bot raise $300.00 in

town or city selling the greatest num
ber of Seals per 'capita. The rural
school selling the greatest number of
Seals per capita will also receive a
pennant. These pennants are very
handsome, and it would be a great hon
or for any county, town or school to
win one of them. What about our
« . n .
county ? Let’s get busy and prin these
pennants, every one of them, and put
ourselves on record as being the best
fighters againt. tuberculosis in' the
State. Then too*- if we sell enough
Seals we can get one of the tubercu
losis nurses, who are going to be put
on in South Carolina next year. These
nurses will visit homes where there
is a case of tuberculosis, teach the
patient how to take care of himself,
teaoh the family how to avoid get
ting the disease, and make lectures in
the schools on this subject.
Many young men have been sent
home from ahny camps afflicted with
tuberculosis—sdme from this! coun
ty—they need our help. Let’s reach
down ik our pockets, and buy at least
«t)ediundred Seals. This will be on
ly a dollar, but a dollar may save a
life
