The Secretary of Agriculture. I?\ Hous ton on March 27rh issued the fol lowing: in part: "Both Vwr economic and patriotic reasons tlio American farmer should strive this yea:* i'or tti-j highest standard of efficiency in the production and conservation of food." This is sound advice to ?h<> nation as a whole but it is vastly more so to the South which never produces suffi cient food for home consumption. The South is now spending between $600,000,000 and $700,000,000 for sup plies that should be raised at home. South Carolina is spending at least 10 per cent, of this amount. This ing articles: Horses and mures. $11, ing articles: Horsese and mules, $11, 000.000; dairy products, $12,000,000; bacon and other meats, $13,000,00u; flour. $20,000,000; corn, $6,000,000; feed and hay, '$">.000,000; Oats. $1, 000.000; Miscellaneous. $2,000,000. I haven't the data to show how much Newberry county is spending for. these items but I know from od SGrVHtlOD tnai 11 is eiiui uiuua. -.-n r-.ost daily now I see wagons loaded with flour, corn, meat and other sup plies going in fhe wrong direction (awav from the town instead of to ward the town). The farmers of the South will never come into their owu and be the prosperous people they should be till they raise their sup plies at home. We are now facing a crisis and it is our duty not onl? to raise food for ourselves but to raise a iiberal amount to help feea those who are at the front fighting out battles. The armies must be fed and it is the patriotic auty 01 uie people of Newberry county to flu their part. Every farmer shoula raise plenty of the different food crops for his own use and some to spare. Plan now to plant a few ex tra acres of corn and give it special cultivation. Begin to plant cow peas early. This is a most valuable fcod for man and i * ^ orrntvn vprv cheaii Dtjasi, diiu ian uv gi v . ly. Tlie garden should receive special attention just now and if you grow more vegetables than you need for immediate use, can them for use next winter. Be sure to include in your food program sweet and Irish pota toes and a patch of cane to furnlsn | syrup for the table. It is time now to look carefully af ter your crop of spring pigs for next winter's meat. See that they have plenty of green feed or grazing with their grain and keep them In a good condition all the time. Never allow your pigs to become stunted. Plani some peas, peanuts, soy beans, vel vet beans or some such crop to be hogged off in the fall which will en able you to raise vour meat much more cheaply. Do not siauguter vour milch cows, heifers, sows, ewes, liens. Save them that you may in crease your lierds and flocks. Be sure fo grow enough feed for dairy cows. South 'Carolina is now spend ing $6,000,000 for butter which should be produced at home. After foods and feeds have been abundantly pro vided for then raise all the cotton you can. but do not be fooled Dy zu cent cotton and plant too much. Even at that price it is about the cheapest farm product that we have at/ pres ent. "Safety First'' demands that we raise our supplies a? home and I hope that no farmer will fail to do this in 1917.
