pi Flour Can Now Be Shipped Into State j
Without Permits, But Wheat Con|j|
scrvattion Still la Necessary.
I ; Columbia.?The embargo on flour,
irhich has been in effect in South ;
H 'Carolina, has been raised by order of :
|$ 'William Elliott, food administrator for
H the State. Since May 15, during the
l| -time the embargo on flour has been
? on in this State, shipments of flour
| -were made into South Carolina only
? on permits from the Fpod Administra-'
I tion. The lifting of \the embargoj
| means that there may be free move|
ment of flour into the State, without
permits, nereaiter. me eniDnrgu sei ved
to cut down shipment of flour from
the mills at a critical- time and through
I & period of extreme shortage so far i
as the wheat supply was concerned.
During the embargo, however, there
was free movement of flour from one i
part of the State to another, and no
section suffered, which was seen to !
by the Food Administration.
With the coming In of the new;
wheat crop there will be relief in the
situation, but this does not mean that ,
the public will.be relieved from wheat
saving. Conservation is still vitally
necessary. A hungry, fighting world
is to be fed. Only in the United
States will there be enough wheat,!
-and the harvest will provide enough j
in this country only if the people con- i
form with the Food Administration
rules and regulations.
SUGAR OBTAINABLE
ONLY IN SMALL LOTS I
:
*
" Purchases for Household Use Limited
i
by Food Administration -Sugar Can;
j Be Secured for Cannir^ and Preserving.
Columbia.?Under new regulations I
Issued by the Food Administration
and which hare already gone into ef- j
tectt, sugar for household use cannot j
be purchased in larger lots than two '
pounds by persons residing in cities I
and towns, or in larger than five!
pound lots by persons residing in ru- j
ral sections. JThese new regulations j
have been rendered necessary by the
sugar shortage, which has become se- j
*rious. It is unlawful for any dealer
to violate this rule, and the seriousi
Bess of the situation as regards sugar
| -calls for the most rigid economy in j
its use.
For canning and preserving frnits j
and vegetables, which is regarded as
very important by the Food Administration,
sugar can be obtained in lots
up to 25 pounds, but not more than 25
pouids will be sold to any one per- j
tofe-aon in any one month for canning j
9 and preserving.
W It is necessary, in order to obtain j
m sugar lor canning and preserving pur- j;
poses, that the purchaser sign a
A pledge blanhs for which the dealer j
? has on hand, these being furnished j
9 by the Food Administration. The pur- j
% chaser pledges himself to use the
I sugar -so-obtained for canning and pre'
serving purposes only, and to return
to the dealer any portion of the sugar!
I. mot used for such -purpose. Dealers
L 'will strictly enforce this rule.
m The public is urged by the Food Ad-!
I ministration to save every possible !
r spocnfnl of sugar. There is none to j1
. -waste. As a mat'or cf fact, the sugar !1
rV-jsituation is serious. Cuban deliveries :
have been shorter than were expected. ' ]
Consumption has been larger. Sub- ;
marine losses have been heavy, and a ,
reduction of sugar consumption all '
I along the line becomes -absolutely nec-!'
ossary, says the Feed Administration. 11

ONLY NECESSARY USE !:
OF ICE PERMITTED <
1
Bulletin Issued by Food Admlnistra- '
tion Points Out Sources of lae
Waste Which Should Be Avoided.
j ]
Calumbia?Theh necessity of con- '
serving ice becomes important with the 1
summer months ahead, and the Food ,
Administration for South Carolina has *
issued a bulletin in which some pre- ]
|j cautionary suggestions are made.
"The call for conservation of ice is
prompted not by any anticipated
ehortage, but in the general interest j
' of thrift and the saving of supplies j
essential to other important indus- !'
tries," says the bulletin. | <
The following suggestions are mada
to indicate sources of wastte of ice: I;
"The practice of shaving ice for i,
restaurants, soda fountains, etc.,
should be eliminated.
"If ice becomes scarce In a community
at any time, a rigorous effort
should be made to curtail its- use by
concerns dealing in luxuries before
any reduction is attempted in the
amount allowed families using it la
moderation.
"Householders should be advised to
keep the refrigerator in a cool place,
to see that refrigerator doors close
tightt, and not to put warm feod ha j
refrigerators to cool at the expease of j
theice.
"Ico should not be used in serving
fruit and sea food. 8erred dfreet j
from the refrigerator they are eokl
enough. Ice shoisld be saved by serr?
ing no more than necessary im glasseo
of water, tea and other drinks.
"The public should not be hysterical;
over the danger of ao actual foe fluih,

CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile, making you j
sick and you lose a day's work
i
.
Calomel salivates! It's mercury. |
Calomel acts like dynamite on a siugj
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious; headachy;consti
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get a bottle of Dod
son's Liver Tone for a few cents!
which is a harmless vegetable substi j
tute for dangerous calomel. Take a|
spoonful and if it doesn't sart your;
liver and straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel and with
out making you sick, you just go back,
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake
nn fpplinfy crpat full of ambition and
r ?o c? j ? .
ready for work or play. It's harm!
less, pleasant and safe to give to chil
den; they like it.
DEMOCRATS MUST ENROLL
Under the rules of the party there:
must be an enrollment of all voters
each election year. The books for;
enrollment for voting in the primary
in Lexington county are now in the
hands of the secretaries of the clubs.
See your secretary at once and enroll
your name. W D Dent is secretary
of the Lexington cub and has
the enrollment book in his possession.
The lines of the club districts are the
same as two years ago. All demo
crats of 21 years of age or who will
be 21 before the general election ini
November are entitled to enrollment, j
Each club has its enrollment com!
mittee whose duty it is to see that;
every democrat in the club district j
has his name properly enrolled on the j
book of enrollment. Be sure to enroll!
otherwise you cannot vote in the pri
mary.
In enrolling your name, write the
name in full. That is to say, if i
your name is "John Jackson Smith," j
do not write it J J Smith or John .Jj
Smith but John Jackson Smith. The'
enrollment committees must make no j
mistake about this. And where an j
applicant cannot write his name but j
makes his mark, the same must be;
witnessed by the member of the en!
rolling committee before whom he;
enrolls.
