NO REAL SHORTAGE IN SUGAR LIKELY. Retailers Tell Consumers They Have Difficulty in Obtaining Normal Supplies. \ Washington, July 20.?While rea m i i xl ?1 X XT tan aeaiers xnrougnout tue cuuiin^ are advising consumers they have difficulty of obtaining normal stocks of sugar, the government has forecast a domestic crop far above the average for the last 6 years. The department of agriculture in an estimate based on July 1, crop conditions and announced today predicts a crop of 2, 216,000,000 pounds, or 147,000,000 pounds more than the average of the preceding1 six years. The beet sugar forecast this year is higher than the record crop of 191.5I 16 by nearly 75,000 tons, but the cane sugar crop is almost 100,000 tons below the average of the-6 years. The sugar beet crop this year is a record one. In recent years the cane su.gar crop usually has been or.e-fou. N cf the total and beet sugar produced i:i Continental United States, but; this year it will be only about oneseventh, Smaller acreage and a wet 1 cool spring are the caus* of the smaller crop. Michigan, Colorado and Utah show big increases in beet sugar prospects. . Forecasts show Michigan's crop as 1,158,000 tons, an increase of 257,000 tons; Colorado's 2,024,000 tons, increase of 580,000, and Utah's 1,^ nA r AAA 4-?v>c , 1 ZUS,UUU ions, increase r.tSmrn appeal pay subscriptions WAR SAVINGS STAMPS f _____________ Columbia, July 22.?A statement T urging all county treasurers of the United War Work campaign to .check up their accounts and make a final effort to secure outstanding . subscriptions at,.once in order to * 1 * ? ? snow a ciearv siacy. iui guvcimueiu I inspection, has been issued by John W. Simpson of the National Loan and Exchange- Bank and treasurer of the campaign in South Carolina. Mr. Simpson likewise makes an appeal ' for individual subscribers to pay up Iheir subscriptions in full im. mediately. It is not only the fair and, ^ Square thin^ for them to do, he says, but he points out the fact that it is CO; Uie:i UltCiCOl. IU uioium^v I '4 ? ' . I long standing obligations now and<; face the forthcoming era of prosper- \ ity free ofvdebt and worry. "Within the ne$ few weeks it is; . the purpose of the leaders who put j f over the United War Work campaign 1 last fall to clean up all their accounts for presentation to- government authorities," said Mr. Simpson. "As treasurer of the campaign in South , Carolina, 1 tnmK it is not unnuuig [ for me to" suggest' that treasurers everywhere -and the public generally cooperate with th^ United War Work '. committee in helping South Caroliha I ' and the South to make the best possible showing in the final check up. "There are still outstanding .subscriptions wholly or in part unpaid v.. which can be paid at once. This is true of - Columbia, of many counties in the "States and of the entire South. "Quite aside from any patriotic - ? ? A 1 i Xl i consideration or tne iaci mat, mese subscribers are as bounden to make i good this debt as they are a note at j the bank, which volunteered to act j as treasurer in the interest of them-j selves and the community at large to complete their payments. "It is an annoyance and poor busi-' . ness to let this promise slide. Our; ? bank, which volunteered to act as treasurer for the campaign, has been ' forced to keep several people on this job alone. The United War Work' committee has found it necessary to employ others to look after the dej tails of collection. It is high time' 1 for the public to make possible^the' I release of these responsibilities. I "Moreover, it is to the individuals! I own interest to discharge these debts.' I. No man wants to have these things W hinging over him, to feel in his own f heart that he is lagging in his pay-' am ments and primises, or to know that' W others are aware of his dereliction. There could be no better time than I . now, when times are booming and | L the future looks prosperous for all, j to clean up these obligations and. ft start afresh with'a clean slate. A "If every county treasurer will H make an effort to secure any out I standing subscriptions, and if unpaid subscribers will make a final effort to make good on their promises, we can .truly feel that the war is over." ^ % ' Tribute of Respect.

That means the child j whose mother is dead, the father may j or may not be dead. But, says some one, "You don't! mean to say that you are soliciting ( funds to build a home for children whose fathers are living." Yes, sir. j Friends, do you contribute to help , build a hospital that yoi^ may have a 1 place to be taken care of if you get sick? Then is it not practical to build a home where you can send ! your child if it looses its mother? j The child can not tell its needs. You can. What age children do you take? We take them from one week old up, giving the younger child the preference. Very few of our orphanages will take a child under two years old. A child from one week to two years old without a mother is the most helpless being on earth. This is the first home in the Carolinas for this class of children. J. H. Spaulding, General Manager.
