That there may be an increase in pellagra during the coming year or account of the rise in the cost oi foodstuffs is the fear expressed in a statement issued by the U. S. Publi Health SeVvLe to-day. As a result of government researches it was found that pellagra is produced by an insufficient, pooriy-balanced diet and that it can both be prevented and cured by the use of food contain ing elements in the proportion required by the body. The application of this knowledge greatly reduced pellagra in 191G as compared with previous years. This reduction is believed by experts of the Public Health Service to have been due to enabled wage earners to provide themselves with a better and more varied diet and to a wider dissemination of the knowledge of how the disease may be prevented. It is feared, however, that pellagra may increase in iuiy by reason of an increase in food cost out of proportion to the prosperity now enjoyed by this country. The great rise in' Vh' cost of forage, particularly cottonseed meal and hulls, is causing the people in many localities to sell their cows and thus there is danger that they will deprive themselves of milk, one of the most valuable pellagra preventing foods. The high cost of living has further served to bring about a reduction in many families in the amount of meat, eggs and beans, and peas consumed, all of which are pellagra prophylactics. In effecting economies of this nature the general public should bear in mind the importance of a properly balanced diet and refrain from excluding, if possible, such valuable disease preventing foods. It is believed that unless this is done there will be a greater incidence of pellagra next spring. o Trespass Notice.

Whether time will be allowed for the Teutonic nations to state their own initiative, or whether President Wlilson will make some move to give an opening remains undetermined. There are indications, however, that if no statement of the Teutonic terms is forthcoming within a reasonable time, the United States may seek a means to indicate the desirability of such a course. It vas reiterated today that the president had determined on his position and it was pointed out that in his nolo he soil he was indifferent to \he mean ; employed to comparing terms.

C.?Cover j Tops are planted tor the purpose oi >reventing tho soil from cashing; to ollect plant food which becomes, ivaiiable during the winter months, bus preventing it from being washed away by the winter rains; to fur lish a supply of humus, nere savy r, juilding up the land; and to hold the < and together, thus preventing it r J rem washing during the winter : uonths. At this time of the year ] ,1k. farmer should sludy the effects ] )f cover crops on his land, and if he las none then he should go see what lis neighbor has. The lands on which jover crops of grain and clovers are growing are not washing away like those which are bare and without a sign of a growing crop. During the winter months the rains wash away! the top soil, leaving the raw subsoil exposed. This will not produce good crops, and only makes poor spots in the fields. All during the winter months there is some fertilizing material which becomes available, and if there is no plant growing on tho land to collect this as it becomes available, the rains will wash it away, and it is forever lost to the farmer, his land is constantly growing poorer' and poorer. None of our soils have enough humus in them, and very few the necessary amount to produce profitable creps without, plenty of commercial fertilizer A soil without humus is nothing more than a bed of finely pulverized rock, and this is of no value to the plants. Plants take up their food in solution, and as the humus helps to bring fertilizing materials into a soluble con- 1 dition, it is of vital importance in the growing of good crops A soil without humus is droughty, and the crops suffer for lack of moisture dining periods of dry weather. Humus makes the soil spongy, helps it to hold moisture, thus enabling the crop to~ stand dry weather. This time of the year is the best time to watch and study the cover crops, and see what they are doing now, and watch the results in the same field next summer during the dry hot days of August. o The Chester delegation has introduced a bill to establish a State high way commission to be composed of the heads of the engineering departments of Clemson College, the University of South Carolina and the Citadel, and three members to be named by the governor with the consent of the senate. o Dr. Lycurgus A.

"I know, of course, from what has already been brought out," wrote the attorney general to the trade commission, referring to the commission's investigation, "that a serious condition exists in this trade, and that any remedy which the law may afford be applied at once."
