WHY SD MILK TO ITALY There seems to be a very general impression that the Italian Babies are cared for by the Central European Relief. This, however, is not the case, as Mr. Hoover has himself em phatically stated. The Central Euro pean Relief, as its name indicates, cares for the children of Central Eu rope-Poland, Austria, Hungary a'nd adjacent states. 3,000,000 children of these countries have been rescued this iwnter, but Italy too, needs hell) and we must give both of our sym pathy and our substance to her in this her hour of need. The question is often asked-"But why is Italy not able to take care of her children?" Under ordinary cir cumstances, Italy could take care of her (hildren-but the circumstances are e.:traordinary. In Italy today a milk famine exists ---due to the fact that many cattle had to be sacrificed the last year of the war to feed the army. Later the dreadt Mouth and Hoof disease broke out and swept the country of the re maining milk-giving animals. This has left them with no native milk. Four years of devastating war had eft the nation with enormous war debts, a depreciated currency and reat scarcity of the necessaries of life. As the currency went down,. the cost of living went up, and for the poor the conditions of existence became almost unbearable. Foods were SO high and so scarce that in November last the Gov ernment found it necessary again to issue food cards--more stringent than during the war, and much of Italy's unrest has been due to the food situa tionl. Under these conditions, the Italian mother, herself undernourished, has i not been able to nourish her baby- t ais formerly she was abundantly able I to do--and in Italy the unprecendted c has happened-Italian mothers have N had to feed their babies artifically. The artificial feeding of a baby is v not the best way, but it can be sue- i cessfully done if good milk is avail- I able, but without milk it becomes a i question which scientists have not yet been able to solve. There is no sub stitute for milk-and the baby under one year, deprived of it, cannot live. The little child over one year may i live but becomes an easy prey to I rickets, anaemia and tuberculosis the hunger diseases--and with these < the hospitals are filled. 1 Three hundred baby hospitals and ' institutions for children in Italy are I now being supplied with milk by the t Aimerican IFree Milk Fund, and through its dispensaries and milk I distributing centers 1000,000 babies have been rescued, but many prov inces have not yet been re.ched, the relief can go only as far as the milk t goes. The institutions already esta. ished must be maintained and the t work enn be extended only through larger shipments of milk. The situation in Italy is briefly this: i The people are burdened with ire- 1 nelndous taxation necessary to ay f their war debts and the cui'rncy so I depreciated in consequence that they ( cannot buy from us with the ruinous exchange now existing. Few people < here realize that the Italian lira, i which used to be equal to 20 cents in i our money, is now worth only 3 1-2 1 cents. Five dollars used to be the c equivalent of 25 lire. Now it takes i nearly 150 lire to purchase five dol- c lars worth of American goods. The milk that we are sending over S costs us here, wholesale 11 cents a a quart, but if it is sold to the poor r Italian, he must pay nearly 66 cents at quart for it in Italy. t, Can Italian babies be properly fed t with our milk if we sell it to them ? r Italy's suffering babies are the vic- I tims of war-they are reaping the 're suits of Italy's great sacrifice in "the U cause" which was "Our Cause." Italy was our friend and ally. Shall I Swe be content to offer her no sympa- '. thy, no aid ? A cup of milk is all that t is asked in her name-that her babies t the future hope of the nation-may' f not h(Iwarfed andl stunted as a re- f sit of malnutrition.

They are fine for feed and fine ror fertility. 2. Time of planting extends from 3arly spring until mid-summer, de pending on latitude and use to be nade of the crop. 3. For grain or as a main hay :rop, the best time is about that for planting corn, when the ground has :ecome thoroughly warm. 4. As a pasture, green manure, -oiling or even as a hay crop, the soy >ean may be sown as late as August irst. 5. Soy beans are more generally Crown with corn than with any other rop and may be combined advantag usly in many systems of crop rota ions. 6. The gi-owing of soy bean seed mables the farmer to produce at a noderate cost, art of the high protein !oncentrates necessary for stock feed m(d milk production. 7. Soy bean straw is a valuable eed for all kinds of stock. 8. The soy bean will yield from mne to three tons of hay to the acre. 9. Soy bean hay is equal or super or to any other leguminous crop. The ise of this hay as a source of protein o balance feeds for growing stock or 'or milk, should reduce the quantity if high priced concentrated feeds vhich it is necessary to purchase. 10. The soy bean can be utilized is a pasture for all kinds of stock, the most profitable method perhaps being o pasture with hogs, supplementing he corn ration. For complAe information about this aluable crop ,if you are a North jarolina farmer, write the Division f Agriculture at Raleigh, N. C. and f a South Carolina Farmer, write the )epartment of Agriculture, Clemson 'ollege, S. C., for "Soy Bean Bulletin" r write the Division of Publications, J. S.

'AMILY REUNITED AFTER MANY YEARS York, April 18.-After a separa ion of 11 years, during which time hey have been subjected to all the rials and hardships of life in a and of war-fare and hunger and "stilence, Mrs. Zemeroud Faddel .-1 hert three children have been eunited with the husband and ather, Waddell Faddel, better nown as Joe Moses, merchant of 'lover, ten miles north of here. Mrs. Faddel and her youngest hild, a boy, Nezehip, aged 11, ar ived at Clover Tuesday from Liver ool, where their trip across the At antic to Clover was delayed be ause of an illness which seized the oy after landing in the English ity from his home in Syria. The two oldest children, Miss amela, 23, and Miss Aneine, 13, rrived several days before the lother and younger brother. Waddell Faddel or Joe Moses is he happiest man in all this see ion just now as a result of the eunion with his family, for which e has been striving many years. Coming to the United States a .ttle more than ten years ago to ee hiks fortune, all during the /orld war he tried to get in touch ith his family in Syria in order D bring them to Anierica. Often lines lie heard nothing from themi mr nmonths andl labored under the .air that they had probably been ut to dleath by the Turks or had lse fallen victims t othe pangs of unger and starvation which stalk he land of Syria, claiming daily undredls for their own. Month after month during the eparation has Faddel sent most of wc profits from his little mercantile ssars Notable Chau rn 4 chrs, 'l beamsca et ente mhusnwill fhe orgsialtz on a grand nigrht concert and n after. establishment to his wife and three children in Syria for their support. Most of that money was never re ceived by them; but fell into the hands of some postal thief or cus tom officer on the other side of the globe. Still showing evidences of the ter rible sufferings and hardships through which they have gone as a result of famine in their native land, the mother and three child ren, gaunt and emnclated, pictures to the husband ghastly scenes of the horrors wrought in Syria and adjoining countries as a result of war. They tell him of nundreds and thousands who have fallen victims to hunger and want and the num ber includes many of the boyhood friends and playmates of the mer chant, Faddel. Mrs. Faddel, a woman about 40 years, of age, is weak and ill as a result of her hard rife of rec'nt years. It will be months and months before she is fully recovered. The younger members of the little emi grant band are recuperating rapidly, however, and it is expected will be back to normalcy within a short time now that they are in a land of plenty and peace and pros pdrity. The mother and three left their home in the province of Lebanon in Syria on February 2, of this year It was with no feeling of re.gret ex cept the parting with relatives and close friends that they felt in get ting away. Neither of the four can speak but a few words of English which they picked up on the way, but Faddel a confident that they will soon learn. The two younger children will be out in the school at Clover next year, he says. __ _ 0 - M. W. CUMMINGS Sumter, April 17.-M. W.
