RURAL SOCIAL CENTERS We need social centers where our young people can be entertained, amused and instructed under the di rection of cultured, clean and com petent leadership, where aesthetio surroundings stir thle love for the beautiful, where art,' charges the at mosphere with inspiration and power, and innocent amusements instruct and brighten their lives. To hold our young people on the farm we must Riaike farm life mere attractive as well as the business of farming more remunerative. The school house should be thte social unit, properly equipped for nourishing and building character, so that the lives of our people can properly function around it and become supplied with the neesessary elements of human thought and activity.

Charleston, Feb. 2.-Notice that it will be impossible fto illlort any more Potash salts from Germany was re ceived yesterday by oflicials of the Coibahee Fertilizer Company here from A. Vogel, representitive-general for the German Potash Syndlate in( the United States and Canada. The no tice states that the Germany Govern ment has -absolutely prohibited the ex I)ortation of all potash salts, and as the world's supply of th :Sit tuilal C6J,21Cm from that countiry, there is now no source of supply for American manu facturers. The action of the German Govern ment 'vill be felt as strongly in Charleston as in any other place in this country, owing to this city's large number of plants for the manufacture of fertilizer. According to reliable in formation, however, the shutting off of the potash supply Will not result in the shutting down of any of the local plants, as the management of the re slectivye factories showed foresight by getting a large supply early in the sea son.
