WiLL BUY FORAGE
FOR ARMY CAMPS
South Carolina Farmers Who Have
Forage to Offer Will Find Ready
Market In This State-All Offere
Will Be Given Consideration.
Columbia.-August Kohn, chairman
of Conservation and ProductcLon of
the Food Administration for South
Carolina, has received a letter from
the Chief of the Forage Branch of the
War Department. Quartermaster's
Division, stating that offers of forage
from farmers and dealers having it
for sale in the neighborhood of the
army camps and cantonments will be
gladly received and will be given con
sideration.
"In fact, says the letter, we are
here to buy forage for the government
wherever we can (1o so to the bust ad
vantage, all things considorod."
It is advised when contractors or
farmers are submitting their propos
als on forage they should state the
kind and grade of forage they have to
sell, the quantity and its location, the
time they can make shipment, and the
price. If prices are satisfactory, pur
chases will be made, it is assured.
All proposals should be addressed to
Chlof of thu Forago Branch, Ofleo of
the Quartermaster General, United
States Army, Lytton Building Chica
go, Il1.
Mr. Kohn has been working for
some :imi past to assure this assur
ance from the Government, as it has
been felt that farmers in this and other
States, who have forage to sell should
be given consliueration, especially
when it is considered that the camps
and cantonments offer the natural
market, and the saving in freight to
the Government would be a factor not
to be disregardeL
THR "5G-50" RULE
STILL IN EFFECT.
Household Re4eased From "No Wheat"
Pledges, But Must Still Use Equal
..Amount of Wheat Subst-itutes.
Columnbla.-IlousowIves who prac
tically put h'.eir homes on a whestless
basis last spring have been released
from their pledges by the Food Ad
ministration to go absolutely without
wheat until the harvest. As no
change has beeni made in the "fifty
fifty" rule. however, housewives will
continue to purchase an equal weight
of wheat substitutos with ' vir wheat
flour. Bakers are still obliged to make

ThI'' -om inig in of th afw wheat
crop has mAdn it pnssl'An for the na
tion to go back partially to its old
habit of eating, but the uncertanties
of war and the ne'essity for building
up a food reserve are ine.intivnx to
caution, even in the face of a good
crop.
Public eating places are likew'se re
leased from their "no wheat" pledges.
ALLIED FOOD CONTROLLERS

Columbia.-lerbr-t Tioover, fIMeral
food admiuis'.rator, has cabled thu foi
lwoin-g joint resolution of the Food
t'ontrollers5 of the~ United States,
France, Italy and Great Britain back
to America:
"Resolved, that while the increased
production of the United States ren
ders it possilble to relaxt some of 'mj
rostr-i(rlons, which have been orne
with peculIar hardshIp upon ail our

that rigid economy, and elimintion of

te'n"d 'biroug~hout the' l"uroploorn alliedi
