HUSS CONTINUING MOVES STEADILY TOWARD REAR In General Retreat on Forty Mile Front,?Forces In Front As They Retire By the Associated Press. Over a front of forty miles frcm tho "Ko^th i?"ea in Belgium to Lille in Northern Prance, the Germans are in general retreat before the Belgian, 3Prench and British, armies. Likewise '11? - x~ ?

Nowhere, However, is the enemy in disorder. In Belgian Flanders his steps are being hastened by reason of "the swift drive into his line by the British at Lille, just south of the Belgian Flanders his steps aie being hastened by reason of the swift drives into his line by the ^British at Lille.

British iy Ostend. Ostend, one cf the fomous subma. 3 bases on the sea, is in Britisft hands. Belgian patrols have entered Bruges, while to the south from the region east of Roulers the allied forces are fast driving toward Ghent Jan an endeavor to seal the Western Flanders sack and retain in it large ^elements of the enemy's forces. Strong opposition is being offered on the Courtroi section to pi event the --allies from carrying out their maneu-' ver to the full. More than a score of additional villages have been liber-ated by the allied troops and numer^ ot>- cuns and quant,l>s of stores ha*e captired. In their withdrawal from West Flanders the Germans are carry'ng out a tactical movement which doubt-; / less will end in a general falling back ^ *<of their line in Northern France and permit them to materially strengthen "their resistance on a new and shorter firont Antwerp to 3Ietz. "This probably will be from Antwerp tro Namur and Metz and thence to the "Swiss border, which would still leave the Germans 80 miles from their own border line both at Antwerp and Namur.

XT xanKee i^nemisis ucvwc new Headache Tablet In Which The Heart Depressing Tendency is Counteracted by Heart Toning Elements. Aspitone, the name. In August, 1914, when the war commenced, many of the newer remedies prescribed by our American physicians and druggists were "made in Germany." Today we are making all of them for ourselves and for half of the globe. During the first four years of the war American genius, prompted by necessity, has; concentrated its attention upon the chemical industries. American discoveries -J*-* cn/ionociAn fliof LlilVC 1UUUWCU ill OUV/U xapj^u OUWv/Ugivu only the scientific journals have been able to chronicle them all. The latest and one of the most serviceable in the field of medicine is the perfected headache tablet called Aspitone, in which the heart depressing tendency is deftly counteracted by heart toning elements. Physicians and druggists maintain that it should and will take the place of all powders and tablets for headaches, neuralgia, colds, la grippe and general pains. They explain that Aspitone gives simple relief from the pain, which if chronic, should of course receive diagnosis by a physician.

Columbia.?The price of cotton seed bw beel stabilizeed by the Food Adroinistralion at $72 per ton for car teed, and $69 per ton for wagon seed, i The basis of the above prices is as follows: Oil at YlVz cents per pound; tneal at $53 per ton in any quantity; hulls at $20 per ton; lint at $0.0467 per pound. The Food Administration is doing all in its power to increase the price of lint, and if the price of L'nt can be increased, the difference will be shown ia the price of meal.

EFFICIENT GINNING AND CLEAN SEED WILL BE INSISTED UPON I I 1 Columbia.?The Fcod Administra- i tlon expects the prices fixed for gin- j r.tng in South Carolina f.o be followed ; strictly. Ginning prices- were; fixed j recently, as follows: For gimme: a bale of 500 pounds of lint cotton or less. $3.50 per bale. For each additional 10 Opounds of lint cotton, at the ra*.e of 70 cents per 100 pounds. When ' digging and ties are furnished by' Sinner, $1.50 additional. The farmer , *hall have the privilege of furnishing; his own bagging and ties. Ginners may not charge on weights lnr.ludin? haearin? and tips hnr t"h? prices announced are for net lint cotion. Bagging and ties weigh 25 pounds. Therefore, ginners must not charge in excess of $3.50 a bale, un-; less the weight of the bale, including bagging and ties, is more than 525 pounds, Efficient ginning will be insisted upon and clean seed must be delivered. Violations at these rules should be reported to the County Food Administrator or to the Food Administration at Columbia, and investigation will be made. For ginning upland Ic^g staple cot-1 ton, such as is grown in Darlington' and Florence counties, ao additional charge of $1.00 per bale is permitted. . I I DON'T GRUMBLE. Columbia. ? "Som* dissatisfaction has been caused by the late orders concerning the consumption of sugar," say a western paper in a timely editorial, "but the discontented must remember that the Food Administration is not to blame. They should direct their criticism at the German junkers and not at the administration. The shortage of sugar feas been catiged largely by U-boats. There is plenty of sugar in the world, but the lack of shipping and the sinking of sugar cargoes have caused all the trouble. The sacrifice the people are called upon to make is comparatively small. In a few months the likelihood is that t&e need of it will pass. "Meanwhile," the writer continues, "let the grumblers think of the boys who are giving all for their country, vrho are enduring cheerfully the sum ot ai narasmps ana aangsr, ana xnea look at himself in the mirror when be complains of being deprived of the second spoonful of sugar for his coffti. One look should be enough." i t | DON'T BE A U-BOAT. Use one level teaspoonful of rtugar in your coffee. Don't be a U-boat. U-boats irink sugar. Sugar sunk in the bottom of a coffee cup is wasted the same as sugar sunk by a submarine. Put in one level teaspoonful, and stir for all you're worth. ; , I NEW FLOUR REGULATIONS ARE NOW IN EFFECT! i Columbia. ? Everybody is asking J about the new flour regulations. These I went into effect on September 1st. j The famous "Sfty-fifty" regulation noncroA ita nrnnnrtinns Dn!v < one pound of substitutes is now required to each four pounds of wheat flour. The number of substitutes have been materially reduced. Only corn flour and corn meal and barley Sour are left in the front line. Victory Eread also retreats to the 20 per cent of substitutes basis. It is emphasized, however, that wheat conservation as a war duty is i not cancelled. It is necessary to build up wheat reserves against possible disaster. The obligation is upon every one to mix wheat flour with 20 per cent of substitutes. One Delivery a Day.
