LOCAL PRODUCE EX
CHANGE.
In his spendid address last
Tuesday before the county
defense council, Dr.. Ourrell
incidentally suggested the
creation of a local pro
duce • exchange. The need
for this is felt on more than
half of the farms in the county
where there is either a small
surplus above the farm’s need,
or where there is a small need.
We have had drilled into us the
increased necessity of larger
production of farm }>orducts.
But we have not been shown
where or how to dispose of the
extra poultry, bacon, potatoes
or^ whatever is in excess of the
local needs. An illustration of
this was seen recently in a far
mer who will move to another
state. He sold excellent coun
try cured hums at a lower figure
thau plate meat could be bought
at wholesale. He had to have
the money and didiyt know
where he could dispose a small
amount of bacon. Another
farmer living about &even miles
from town decided to reduce
the amount of poultry on his
farm. A small middleman who
guaranteed him forty cents per
hen at his store made more than
100 per cent profit on his trade.
Now if there had been some
local produce exchgmge^ con
veniently located to selliirs and
buyers the seller could' have
disposed -of his produce at *n
reasonable profit to; himself.
As a ru!6 we do not- live at
bring oyr foodstulls halfway
across the •continent, and pay
Western packers tiptop prices for
what we could buy, its Barnwell
county. Farm canning is only
in its infancy with us. Yet it
is hampered because the farnur
doesnt know where he can dis
pose of his surplus. The local
comsumer buys northern canned
goods because he doesn’t know
that three miles away is a . far
mer with a surplus on his
hands.
How can , this exchange be
—put-in -operation?. The first
step is for the people of tlie
county to see that it. can be
done at a profit to themselves.
We must first realize the peed
to such an extent that we will
find a way to bring it into
operation. Already our valu
able home demonstration agents
and. farm demonstration agents
'are serving as a means whereby
the needs of one farm are met
hy thosurplus on another farm
This exchange on a larger sCsT
will require some satisfactory
system of grading or standard
izing of the products to be Md
or exchanged. Advertising
space in the county newspapers
could be secured at a low rate.
By this means the buyer ^nrl
seller could be introduced * to
each other. If we ever raised
more than V e Reeded for county
consumption, the exchange
of the farthers into carload lots,
ship them to the nearest avail
able markets. A farmerTnight
find a difficulty on a' glutted
locsf) market to dispose of astir-
plus hog./ But if he knew; that
on a certain day a car load of
hogs won HI be .shipped to the
j|J range burg packing house he
would lie .superior to focal con
ditions,
Denmark owes its wealth and
prosperity to the perfection of
these local exchanges. The
bulk Of its exports is in" dairy
products which are produced on
very small farms. It nearly
supplies the entire British mar
ket with butter and cheese. The
small Danish farmer brings his
milk to the loealmilk exchange.
He can there sell it outright, or
can tlirough it have it made in
to butter or cheese and -sold in
England or Germany. But he
knows, that through the. per
fection of these local exchanges
he can dispose of eveyy pound
of surplus products raised on
his farm. W\ r e can do here what
others havo/done elsewhere.
The county defense council has
its hands full, but this is an
opening of real service.

Half Your Living

We 1are all at a danger point. On
the use of good common -sense in our
191S farm and garden dperatlotfk de
pends prosperity or our "going broke.’'
Even at, present high prices no one
can plant all or nearly all cotton, buy
food and grain at present prices from *
supply merchant on credit and make
money. Food and grain is higher in
proportion th^an are present cotton
prices.!
* It’s a time above all others to play
safe;to produce all possible food,
grairt and forage supplies oh your own
acres; to cut down th^ store bill.
A good piece of garden ground/-’
rightly planted,/ rightly tended-and
kept planted the year round, ran be
made to pay nearjy half your living; It
will save ydu iuore money than you
made on the best three acres of cotton
you ever grew!
Hastings' 13T8 Seed Book tells nil
about the right kind of a money sav

in it. It tells about the farm crops as
well and shows you the cJear road to
