THE PUBLIC HEALTH It is predicted that milk production and consumption for the first six months of the current year will be well in excess of the same period in 1935. The demand for practically all dairy products has shown similar improvement, with larger quantities of butter and cheese, as well as milk and cream, finding their way to the ultimate consumer. The dairy products milk cooperatives have been primary factors in causing increased demand. They have advertised and publicized the benefits of higher milk consumption for both children and adults?claims which are supported by recognized authorities on diet. Reliable estimates hold that milk consumption in this country is under half of what it should be in the interest of public health. Thus, increased consumption is of more than merely commercial importance. ?Industrial News. Fire burnt ^ million feet of lumber at Johnston, at the yard of the Smith Lumber company.

G. BATES, Sr. I - " 1 ~ " ~ t r Hi . ' ^ -o Drought Situation Receiving Attention Cletmion. June 3 ?Much interest at the present time centers in the pre- 1 m utation of facta to the authorities ' In Washington as to the farm alt nation brought on by the extreme drought conditions in this state, a situation which exists pretty well throughout the Southeast, with local exceptions, says I). W Watklns. director of tire Kxt elision Service. A survey of the state conducted by telegram by R. W. Hamlltou this week brought replies from practically every county showing drought conditions extraordinarily serious in nearly everyv County. The stands of cotton, tobacco. corn und other principal crops vary around f?0 to 75 per cent with the majority of reports indicating u figure closer to the smaller percentage. A report secured front the I'nltod States Weather Iiureau office in Columbia shows that the rainfall from April 15 through May 31. 1936. was .2?i inch, as compared with a normnl tain tall of this season of 4.53 inches. On Monday morning Director Watkins talked with C A. Cobb, chief of the Southern Region of the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment program, ami called his attention to the serious situation. A further conference was held on Wednesday with | Mr Cobb's assistant, W. B. Camp. Also Mr. Hamilton and other representatives from this state were in Washington on Wednesday to lay bofore the officials the seriousness of this situation. "Much thought is being giv^n to the probability of increasing the percentage of base acreage of soil-depleting crops which may be taken out of such crops and upon which government payments may be received by the farmers concerned," Mr. - Watkins states. "No definite decision as yet lias been reached,' however, and this will await further consideration of the facts by the Washington authorities. "Any other form of direct relief will perhaps depend upon .Congressional action. It is felt, however, that 'the Administration, by changing certain regulations under the Soif Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act. can arrange to help offset the terrific economic problem confronting tin- Southeastern farmers because of these unusual conditions." Looking To Drought Relief In District Washington, D. C? June 5.?Congressman J. P. Richards, in company with a number of other Congressmen from South Carolina and Georgia, today had a conference with Secretary of Agriculture Wallace to bring to his attention the distressing drought situation in the southeni states, with a view to securing additional Federal benefits for farmers suffering from the drought. Secretary Wallace informed the committee that a complete survey of the situation would be made with a view to extending every possible assistance allowed by existing law. Richards states that he informed Secretary Wallace that the seven counties comprising the Fifth Congressional District had had no rain in two months and that cotton had been planted two or three times in certain sections, with no stand yet; and that unless rain comes soon the outlook for the cotton crop is gloomy. The rainfall in South Carolina for the last few months has been only-25 per cent of normal. Cotton Picker Is Perfected Memphis, Tenn., June 5.?L. C. Stuckenhorg, Memphis farmer and inventor, told the Agricultural Club today that a new low-cost cotton picker he developed will be ready for use at harvest time this fall. Stuckenhorg said the machine would he produced for about $250 and that its manufacturer would be started soon by a St. Louis machinery firm. The machine, he said, will pick between 200 and 300 pounds of cotton a day in a field from which the average laborer can pick 75 pounds, lie claimed it will improve the condition of the staple. Dr. Tait Butler, agricultural authority, told the club that "all labor-saving machinery has eventually worked for the advantage of the race." "I have no fear of mechanical development, he said, predicting mechanical cotton pickers soon will be used generally in the south The new commissioner of labor, J. W. Nates, has installed his new department in the ante-room of the governor, until July l, when the appropriation Tor it beconjes effective, and he can rent other quarters.
