V CHAIRMAN COKER URGES CITIZENS TO BE PREPARED Head of State ( o :neil of Defense Pre. diets Probable 3Ioney Surplus In South Carolina?Farmers Mast Plant Cow Peas. A David R. Coker of Hartsville, chairman of the State Defense Council, has j issued the following statement to thej people of South Carolina: "The State Council of Defense "wishes to call attention to several features of the present and prospective ^situation which seem to call fori . .. thoughtful consideration by ail of; 1 the people cf the State, but especial- j , ly by the farmers. A marked increase in price has re-! cently taken place in fertilizer mate-j rials and especially in. ammoniates. i Tankage, cottonseed meal ?nd dried i fclood are already so ki^ii that it is -a -i -t- .ii xt - i.? ?? I uouuuui wnciner uiey can ut; yruui,ably used as fertilizing materials. This ris because these materials are more and more being used as food for livestock, being substituted to some extent for corn, wheat bran and other j materials which can be used for hu-j man food. Sulphate of ammonia, J ** w-hich has been largely used for fer-j tilizers, is almost entirely off of the market, being required by the govern- j ment for the manufacturer of muni-! i tions. It is altogether probable that next spring the average farmer will be unable to buy any source of ammonia execpt nitrate of soda, which, is now nearing $100 per ton, with a possible further advance. There is no i certainty that even this material can 0 be obtained in adequate quantities. as 1^/ it is also used largely in munitions of war. Mast Plant Cowpeas. "The situation seems to call for the ^ planting of every acre of stubble land and all vacant corn middles to cowpe^rs, which is the only available legume for planting at this season. jlaier ou, ocyicuiuci j.o tu wwu?i 15, it will be advisable to plant cover. crops in all of the cotton. "The farmer who understands the| situation now and takes all possible j steps to meet it in advance may be able to carry on his operations next' year without contracting fertilizer ? bills so heavy as to endanger his profits. Th farmer who takes no thought for the morrow will be in a; very different position and may face! a situation next spring out of which he wall be unable to figure a living. "We trust the people of the State will carefully consider the above sit UilUUll UOC\i U J yi uo^/vA^v&f v i I shortage and high prices of fertilizer i and -will take all possible steps to lessen the threatened danger to our j agriculture. Probable Mooej Surplus. "Another very) difficult problem j seems to us to confront our people. If the State this year produces an average or even thi ee-quarters of* an average cotton and tobacco crop and it sells at anywhere near present prices, there will be, after debts are' paid, the greatest volume of surplus ' money ever known in this State.
