FARMERS ASKED TO _ FEED THEMSELVES Strong Address By Third District Congressman. 5Ir. I> >minick Spoke Under Auspices of the State War Council of Defence Today. Anderson Mail. Speaking under the auspicies of the State War Council of Defense Con pressman Krea H,. LiomimcK auuresseu several hundred farmers in the court bouse at 2 o'clock this aftenoon. He had addressed a meeting of farmers in Honea Path this morning and is schedued to speak at Belton at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Next week lie will speak in Pickens and Oconee counties. Congressman Dominick is calling upon the farmers to feed themselves, thereby relieving the country of raising food, products for them, which will result in the conutry's giving more supplies to the allied governments. He is asking the farmers to raise more wheat?to plant at least twe acres of wheat to the plow. He is asking them to raise more corn, more beef cattle, more hogs and more sheens. He cited federal census figures of stock raised in South Carolina in the year 1850 when the State had a foputaitioirt of only MKHOOO. He cited the census figures for the yeai 1910 when the state's population had Increased to 1,500,000. Although th( population had shown an increase oj 300 per cent, the amount of livestock raised, including hogs, cattle, sheeps etc., had decreased more than 50 pei cent. Congressman Dominlck told of th< cotton growing farmer3. The cottor farmers had been more favored thar the farmers in other sections of th( country. Cotton is not under federal control. The federal government does not regulate its prices This staple is the only staph ?ntoucred by the government . H< Dointed out the ai)DroDriation $10 $00,000 with which Chilean nitrates will be bought and sold to the far laers at cost. He pointed out th< tact that the federal government it establisrin^ a nitrate plant at a cosi of $20,000,000 to make nitrates frorr the air. All of these things are being dont mainly for the cotton planters. He cited the establishment of the fed*n1 ln?n .VianVo annfhai> nSoAc Vt lOi Ui AVMli UOilttD, CIJJLVS VXA^.1 of legislation that is helping the cotton farmers. ?"The -government is doing all ot this for you. Is it unreasonable, therefore for the government to ask yon to feed yourselfs? The government is not asking you to give anything. It is merely asking you to relieve the other part of the county of feeding you so that our food suppliec can be extended to our allies and to our men at the front," declared hte congressman. The speech of the congressman was most forceful, and was most sensible. His remarks were listened to with marked attention, and as a result those who heard him have a clear idea as to what the state council of defense is trying to do, and they are going to do their share in carrying on the work. Congressman Dominick *rgeu the farmers to sign the pledge ?ards to raise more wheat and corn, ?ore hogs and beef, etc., and "above all to raise more of these things, evei if^you don't sign a card."

She has prepared the following article on 'What to Serve on Meatless Days": Eat Plenty of These Foods. "Thousands of women in South Carolina have signed the food conservation pledge cards. In as many homes at least one wheatless and one meatless day will be observed each week. The tues'tion comes: What may we consistently serve on our meatless days? On r.o account must we eat too little food to keep each and everybody in perfect health. The food served on tbe meatless day may te Just as nurtritious as that on any other day. If tome other kind of food is to take the place of meat, this food must con . .tain the same power to furnish needed material to the body. x "Meat is an essentially protein ? - food; it srives- n?trc?ren for foor growth. It true that nitrogen is ' as necessary for growing bodies as it is for growing plants. I] the use of meat is restricted, othei nitrogen foods must be applied.

I ? { GEBMA5Y MUGGERS FOB PEAC'F By Savoyard. i I Her central geographical position her undivided direction of military operations, her undivided command oi the armies of her allies and her control of the political situation in Austria-Hungary. Bulgaria and Turkey as well as at home, have afforded Germany immense advantage In the prosecution of the greatest war of human history. On the other hand, the entente allies have conducted the war on the plan of every fellow for -^himself. In turn, Russia, Prance, England, Italy, Servia, Roumania and even Belgium, all appear to hare operated as though they were not allies. so far as field operations were involved, but each the sole combatant against Germany. Thia war would have been over Ion? ago and Germany beaten had the entente forces In the field been directed bv one will with extraordinary talent for war. But the entente allies have one very great advantage on their sifle. Pea^e is more important to Germany and iK-r allies than it is her enemies. That is v*hv all ^nor'osffons of ponr-<? come out of Germany. There is to he a hereafter, and the entente can better stand the delay of its advent than the Teutonic emnire^. or Bulgaria, cr Turkey. And that Is why all suggestions as to peace are scorned in the cabinets of the entente. No doubt Germany and all her allies , would spring with joy to grasp a peace reestablishing tre status quo ante, though that yould prove ruinous to tre imperial dynastes of thrt Fohe^7foHerns and the Ha-.^urgs. ) ?o^ti their invcHmert would begin to ask such impertinent ones 5 tions as ' what was the war about?" L "Why were so many of our brethren *: slain?*' "Is not our present condition 5 infinitely worse than it was before the ? war began?" Even though the stati us quo ante were reestablished, the interest on the public debt of Ger many would amount to more than the entire budget of that action before e the war began. And that is not the I j worst of it?German trade is gone, ' and it will take half a century to res gain it, if it is possible to regain it " at all. e j But the status quo ante is imposs sible.
