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

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. Meantime
he is getting it well organized
and receiving mail and visitors in the
