One stamp will make them interested in the sale of stamps* The weekly standing of the counties t will become like a real baseball i league drive and will develop into a ! race for the highest honors. There is no doubt but that the people are patriotic enough to buy the amount which has Wen set for this State, but a? this is a large amount, and the people have already gotten started, there must he all kinds of ways to get them to buy now." "Lick the stamps" is the slogan of the campaign, "and help lick the Kaiser." This campaign was started in * - viuvr iu rcavn me masses of the people audi give them a chance to help in this worldwide battle for democracy. The campaign workers are asking that the people buy stamps now. They want the campaign to be boosted. Suggestions have been made by the campaign workers to the school teach ers over the State to aid in the campaign. Reports are to the effect that< the teachers have taken a great in- jv terest in the work. School children are among the heaviest buyers of the stamps. ' THE HOBBY HKBALP SWEET POTATOES SHOULD BE PUNTED % There has never been any doubt as to the success of raising* sweet potatoes in South Carolina. It is prae| tically a sure crop and in view of the labor situation it is one of the very best crops that can be planted. Every sweet potato that is grown in this State is growing to help in the fo?d fight to win the war. In addition potatoes in the present market conditions are a wonderfully profitable crop. At the request of the chairman of the food production in this State, Prof. Geo. P. Hoffman has prepared a series of articles in connection with the planting and gathering of seed potatoes, and will be published from time to time. The immediate urgency is in securing seed stock for the satisfactory planting. The real shortage of seed potatoes is perhaps not realized, and fhose interested in the plant ing of seed potatoes should at once arrange to gel their seed. Proffessor Hoffman lias this to say: "With an increase of nearly three i times the normal selling price com| bined with a wanton loss of more I mini < ? per cent, ol soutn Carolina s sweet potato crop of the past season it is obvious thai the necessary seed for planting this year's crop will he far insufficient. Therefore, it is imperative that plant dealers and planter* make immediate provisions for supplying their needs. Disease-free. I seed should be bedded as soon as I possible. This shortage may be supelemented by a large per cent, through early planting of small areas from which later plantings may 'op made by use of vine cuttings. "The Nancy Hall and Puerto Rico are the leading and most popular [varieties in this State, but these varieties not being available, no time should be lost in obtaining diseasefree seed or plants or other varieties. Every effort should be made for the planting of a sufficient area to supply home consumption with a surplus for the local market. o COPY SUMMONS FOR RELIEF (Complaint Not Served.)

This year's sales to date at eleven of the leading distributing (enters of the I'nited States show a decrease of about one j million hogs as compared with the same period last year.
