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.

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.
Two o fthe five commissions have
been organized and are in action

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

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.
