FROM THE SOUTH CAROUNA D[YELOPMENT BOARD Columbia, Oct. 18.--South Carolina ahe begun to advertise itself to the rest of the country. It is securing some excellent publicity in maniy sec tions of the United States, judging from the letters received almost every day by the South Carolina Develop ment Board. These letters are main ly requests for information regard ing the state, especially its agricul tural and industrial possibilities. South Carolina was one of the first states to organize a development board. Many other states are now fol lowing the lead of South Carolina. Let ters asking for the plain of organiza tion of the development board have been recently received from Oklahoma, Ohio, Washington and Illinois. Even California, which is considered the best advertised sate in the union, has requested information as to the pre cise plan of organization here. The directors of the development board recently launched a little news paper call the South Carolinian. Copies of this are being sent tliroughout the country, to Chambers of Commerce and other civic orgpnizations. These copies are evidently bearing fruit, for several farmers in the middle west are seeking information about agri cultural locations in this state. The directors of the development board are considering the production of a "South Car~olina Handbook," which will be cirrulated in large quan tities in every state.

FLOYD, Manager Board through its commission on markets will strive to find a ready cash outlet for every pound of food pro duced in the state. One class of food about which there has been some diffculty in the past was that produced by the nunierous canning clubs. Though of high qual ity and relatively cheap in price, lack of officient marketing facilities has caused a large annual loss. Conferences are now in progress be tween development board officials and Miss Chiristine South, state director of the home economics forces at Win throp College, looking to a satisfac tory market for every pound of can ned goods put up by the girls in the home dlemonstration clubs. In one item alone, thousands of cans of to matoes are turned out each year by these gjrls, and even so, other thou sands ihight be if there was a mar ket. The development board has now taken uP the matter of the sale of all canning club goods with one of the largest chain grocery store corpora tions in the country. Officials of this company have expressed themselves as anxion's to handle the products of the home economics members. . They will do so, they say, on a business-like basis, and by placing the goods in their hundreds of stores, find a quick market for every can produced. This matter will be brought up at the next meeting of the board's mar kets commission for definite action. Miss South will attend the meeting and act as the representative of the clubs in closing the negotiations.

Ever hear them say: "Poor fellow his liver is out of shape?" Maybe they say it of you when you feel blue, mean, despondent; and maybe they're right. A stomach out of order, a sluggish liver and a nagging indigestion or dys pepsia surely will affect your equili brium. It is a reason rather than an excuse for "flying off the handle." Watch your feelings. When the ear ly morning finds you mean and cross, think of your liver kidneys and stom ach. Tliey need cleansing. Your di gestion needs assistance. Stop your rash eating, regulate your habits and help your stomach and liver along. with SarDraS, an A-1 Liver, Kidney, Stomach and Blood Tonic. Contains no alcohol. It is a scientific preparation of medi cinal roots and herbs especially pre pared to invigoract the liver and kid neys, cleanse the blood and digestive system and hell) the stomach in per forming its duty. A tablespoonful before each meal will do th( w6rk. Common laxatives only leave you in worse condition than before. Sar DraS cleanses the stomach, liver and kidneys and nature does the rest. Ask all dealers and jobbers. those on natural resources and indus trial research and drainage and drain age projects. The others will be set in motion within a week. They are on markets, live stock and health and sanitation. At the organization meetings of the two first named in the rooms of the development board, definite programs were adopted and specific undertak ings outlined for attention at once. This plan will be followed by the oth ers, so that within a few (lays there will be actually at work for the ad vancement of important matters of stite-wide concern five groups of the ablest men and women the state con tains. Exhaustive examination of the sub ject of natural resources and indus trial research disclosed an almost com plete lack of definite and coordinated policy in South Carolina. It was thought best, therefore, to first en deavor to meet this need by naming a committee to make a study of exist ing laws and submit a report to the people outlining a basis for a fixed policy for the protection and develop- j ment of the state's resources. This report may be expected soon. Similarly, the drainage commission will undertake to create a policy to apply to all parts of the state which will be equitable and of immediate and lasting benefit. Incidentally, it is expected that the work of this com mission will result in the creation of greatly increased property values for the purposes of taxation, which will lighten the general burden.
