There wa$ a time when the
countv paper was regarded as a
* small luxury by tlve mass of the
people, Its columns contained
the locul Itappenings that were
.not important enough to find
their way into the dailv papers.
It filled an indispenable place
in the life of each local i com
munity. Happy was thE paper
which at once served its own
profit mid the needs of its
readers. This place has been
and will remain the exclusive
sphere of the county paper.
Tjie horizon of the county
paper has been broadened
greatly by the war. Everybody
is asking “what do you think
of the war”? Their interest is
not so much on what the oppo
■ing armies have accomplished
during the previous week,] or
what' happened in the capitals
of the world. The people are
hungry for information on the
war iu general. Those who read
the magazines aud larger dailies
are but few number.
While the great mass of people
must find their news in the
county papers or* not at alb
This does not mean that the
record of local news, should he
smaller, or even that the county
paper should carry more general
news. It does point to the nee*
essitv of having the county
paper in every home if we are
to have ji_people who are in
formed on the various calls and
causes that must be„ made the

The period of June. 14th to
June 28th is designated as
War Savings week in South
Carolina. The people of this
state are Risked to -pledge in
this Week that they will pur
chase $.T1,000,(KM) worth of War
Savings Stamps during 11)18.
The question is not merely to
raise enough money to meet
the demands of the war in a,-
hand to mouth, policy 'which
may result in disaster, .but to win
•the war at all costs. The more
quickly the war is won the less
it will cost ps. There is not
..enough labor and matorialiii
this country to supply the
normal peace demands . and
also the war requirements of
this natiom Either you anil I
must dispense with every pur
chase that cannot be classed
as necessary, or our soldiers
niul sailors must be deprived
of necessary equipment or
munitions. Which shall it be?
You are asked to postpone
such purchases until after the
war, rather than forego them.
You are asked to lend your
money' to the government to
provide for the needs of soldiers
to win your battles.” Make no
mistake about the fact that
winning this. war isi^rst' task.

The allle* have made farther and
increused demand* for breadstuiTs,
these enlarged demands being caused
to some degree by shortage In arrivals
fromHhe Argentine. It l*. therefore,
necessary for the D. S. Food Adminis
tration to urge a still further reduction
In the consumption pf bread and bread- [
4*tj»ffs generally If we are to meet our-
export necessities. The Food Admin
istration has Issued a statement ex
plaining the situation In detail, partic
ularly the reasons whkb lead It, for
the purpose of centering effort for the
time being opon the cereal sltuaUon
to relax temporarily the restrictions on
meat consumption.
■ Experience ahowa, this statement
•aya. that the consumption of bread-
stuffs Is intimately associated with the
consumption of meat. For varioos
reasons our supplies of meat for the
next two or three months are consid
erably enlarged, and we can supply the
allies with all of the meat product*
which transportation facilities render
possible and at the same time some
what Increase our own consumption.
In these circumstances the Food Ad
ministration considers It wise to relax
the voluntary restrictions on meat con
sumption to some extent with a view
to further decreasing bread consume
tion.
Conservation of food must be ad
justed to meet necessities from time to
tlfne^ for neither production, nor al
lied demands are constant factors, nor
can any/)f these factors be anticipated
for long periods in advance in the dis
turbed eruditions In which we at pres
ent live. While the world situation Is
not one that warrants any relaxation
In the efforts to ellmlnat# waste or to
relax economy Id food, the Adminis
tration desires to secure bettor adjust
ment In food balances.
So long as the present conditions
continue the only special restrictions
we ask are the beefless and porkless
Tuesday.
The meatless meal and the pork less
Saturday are no longer asked.
The farmers of the Culted States
are responding to the national call to
Increuse hog production. Their In
crease, to all appearances, Is being at
tained more rapidly. Of more Imme
diate Importance, however, are several
complex factors which have effected
an immediate increase in meat sup-
plies . -rr :
The transportation shortage before
the government took jover the rail
roads, the bad weather In 4nnuary and
early In February, the lajfge percent- | x ‘
age of immature corn In the last har
vest and the necessity of feeding this
corn as rapidly as possible to .save It
from decay, have not only resulted in
backing up the animals—particularly
hogs—on the farms for a longer j>e- *
riod-of feeding, but have resulted In a
great Increase In their nvernge weigh
and will result, with improved trans
portation conditions, which already ap^
pear, In larger than, normal arrivals, at
market for the next rwo or three
months. The weight of hogs coming
to the market for the past two weeks
indicates an increase In weight of
-from un average of L’OM pounds lasf
year’ to the almost unprecedented
average of 232 pounds, or a neV’ln-
crease in their meat value of over 15
per cent. This is a‘distinct addition
to the nation’s meat supply. It there
fore now seems certain that we have
such enlarged supplies for at. least
some montJis_to come, that we can not
only Increase our exports to tlie allies
:to tht*full extent of their transporta
tion facilities, Gut at the same time
can properly Increuse our domestic
consumption. —-.
The respond of the public to our re
quests tor reduced consumption of
meat during the past few months has
been most gratifying, and this service
alone has enabled the government dur
ing tliis period to provide such sup
plies as % transportation to the allies
permitted.
Tlie Administration also suggests {
that in those parts of the country r 7%
where the did fashioned home preser
vation of pork is still the custom, this
practice should he extended at the
present time, as it will relieve the bur
den upon transportation to and from:
the pitching houses and is economical
ly sound as saving the cost of packing
i operations and at the same time will
I provide home supplies of pork to last
cr die mori’tTis of decreased supplies.
