“If enough people will join in thr
wide and swift adjustments that
the new Farm Act proposes, we can
make it work,” Secretary of Agri
culture Henry A. Wallace declares.
“The Act provides new government
al machinery . . . for a control of
production to accord with actua'
need, and for an orderly distribu
tion of essential supplies.”
In this connection it is well tc
realize that farmers themselves ex
ert more control over aggregate ag
ricultural .< production than d-'
weather and other uncontrollable
natural factors. The farmer plans
his operations for several seasons
and controls his output by the
amount of his acreage. Variation?
in yield per acre, due to weather,
often upset his plans from one sea
son to the next, but in the long run,
changes in acreage, and improve
ments in cultural methods have
more effect on total output than do
bumper crops or crop shortages.
United States production of 10
important crops increased 146 per
cent between the two 5-year per
iods 1875-1879 and 1900-1904. The
acreage of these crops increased
134 per cent, whereas the combined
acre-crop average rose only four
per cent. Obviously the gain in
acreage, a controllable factor, had
far more to do with the increase in
production than did the rise in
yields.
To illustrate: while Nature large
ly influenced the big drop in cot
ton production between 1926 and
1927, man dictated the big jump in
cotton production in the eight-
year post-war petiod 1919-1926,
argely by increasing the cotton
acreage from 33,566,000 acres in
1919 to 47,087,000 acres in 1926. The
cotton output rose from 11,421,000
bales in 1919 to .nearly 18,000,000
bales in 1926, and more than two-
hirds of the increase was due to
the increase in acreage.
As to money values of small and
arge crops, for the 12,955,000 bales
produced in 1927 the- farm value as
of December 1, 1927, was $1,269,885,-
000, or $287,149,000 more than the
arm value of the larger crop of
7,977,000 bales grown‘the year be-
ore.

Uncle Sam Plans
To Buy Forests
JOHNSTONE SAYS FORESTRY
SERVICE EXPECTS TO BUY
300,000 ACRES.—AIDS
EMPLOYMENT
COLUMBIA, June 3.—Plans look
ing to the purchase by the United
States forestry service of large
areas for national forests and the
employment of additional conserva
tion workers in this state were dis
closed yesterday from two sources.
Alan Johnstone, state director, of
relief, said in Charleston the fores
try service plans to purchase 300,-
000 acres of timber land in the state
and on these areas and on private
lands 24 forestry camps are to be
located.
This followed announcement
there that the state forestry com
mission had given its permission
for the forestry service to buy lands
in Berkeley and Georgetown coun
ties. In asking the commission’s
consent, Joseph C. Kirkcher,
Southeastern district forester, tele
graphed that the service was con
sidering purchases on the Wam-
baw river, in Berkeley county, and
on the Black river, Georgetown
county.
A statement from Washington
said: “The regional forester is re
ceiving offers on land to add to na
tional forests for camp purposes.
No sites have been chosen as yet.”
Johnstone said his information
was that two tracts would be pur
chased in Georgetown county and
one each in Oconee and Pickens
county, the latter two to be added
to the Nantahala national forest.
On these areas, Johnstone said, |
seven forestry camps are to be lo
cated. These would be in addition
,o a camp already established in
.he Nantahala forest, Oconee coun
ty, a private land camp in Green
ville county, and 15 other private
land camps approved for counties
in lower central and coastal coun
ties.
Johnstone said eventually 4,000
men would be employed in the
camps in this state. This would be
300 more than the state’s quota for
the civilian conservation corps, en
listments for which, the relief di
rector announced, will be completed
by Saturday.
The new camps should be in
readiness for occupation within two
weeks, the period for preliminary
training for the forestry workers,
Johnstone added.
Preliminary selection of sites for
Hie 15 new private land camps al
ready have been made by district
foresters, it was said at the office
of H. A. Smith, state forester. These
\. ill be submitted to army officials
\ ho will make the final choice from
f jveral possible sites.
These sites are furnished by
i icmbers of co-operative forest pro
tective organizations, owners of the
limber land upon which forestry
methods will be practiced by the
conservation corps workers.
Purchase of lands for new na
tional forest areas is handled by the
forestry service. Price paid for
such land acquired within recent
years in the South was said to
have ranged from $2 to around $5
an acre,
Doctors Request
Iodine Products
CALIFORNIA AND VERMONT MEN
ASK SOUTH CAROLINA
TOMATO JUICE
COLUMBIA, May 30 ^-Publicity
given to the findings of the South
Carolina food research laboratory
recently brought to Dr. J. W. Jer-
vey, Greenville physician, * an in
quiry from Dr. Grant Selfridge, ear,
nose and throat specialist and a
research worker of San Francisco,
Calif.
Dr. Selfridge expressed interest
in South Carolina tomato juice, of
which he had read a great deal in
professional magazines, and re
quested the Greenville physician to
send him samples for ascertaining
their nutritional value. Dr. Jervey
said he had considerable difficulty
in getting the samples requested as
virtually all of last year’s supply
had been disposed of and this year’s
product had not reached the mar
ket. Dr. Selfridge is also under
stood to be interested in- “spln-
trate,” made of native spinach.
Dr. William Weston thought it
significant of the achievement of
the food research laboratory that
a research worker so far away had
heard of the merits of South Caro
lina iodine products and that Dr.
Jervey did not find readily avail
able even a limited supply of to
mato juice.
Several weeks ago Dr. Weston
had a letter from Dr. J. C. Jarvis
of Barre, Vt., food chemist, who is
a member of an international group
interested in the improvement oi
the diet, in which he said: “I do
not see why it would not be prac
tical for us as a group to specify
to our patients South Carolina to
mato juice instead of advising just
‘tomato juice.’ ”

Receives Praise
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR EX
TENDS CONGRATULATIONS—
COMPLETED QUOTA
The State, June 5tli.
Congratulations to South Caro
lina upon being first among the
larger states to complete enlist
ment for the civilian conservation
corps have been received from the
department of labor.
A telegram of commendation was
sent to Alan Johnstone, director of
relief, by W. Frank Persons for the
secretary of labor. It follows:
“Congratulations upon comple
tion of your enrollment today. You
are the first among the states with
a quota as large as your own. Only
one state completed earlier than
South Carolina. Especial comment-
dation is due yourself and your as
sociates in every community iir your
state for the care, interest and
standards employed in the enter
prise.”
A small group recruited today at
Charleston, Johnstone announced;
completed enlistment in the state
which had a quota of 3;500.
At least two groups of the South
Catolina workers already have
moved to forestry camps ikn the
state, one in the Nantahala nation
al forest, Oconee county, and the
other a private land camp in
Greenville county. The others are
undergoing the two weeks condit
ioning atr Fort Moultrie, Fort Ben-
ning and Fort McPherson.
Plans are to employ all the
South Carolinians in forestry camps
in the state. Fifteen new private
land camps have been authorized
and the U. S. forestry service is
considering purchase of additional
national forest areas in the state
for camp purposes.

50,000 Are Ordered
To Forestry Camps
In Far West Area
WASHINGTON, June 4.—More
than 50,000 young easterners and
mid-westerners Saturday were or
dered to forest work projects itr the
Rockies and Pacific coast ranges.
The ordfers were issued by the
War Department after conferences
with Robert Fechner, director of
conservation work. They cut al
most in half the number origin
ally intended *for the western as
signment.
“A final check-up of the camp
locations approved by President
Roosevelt,” Fechner said, “disclos
ed that It would be necessary to
send 53,674 men to western states:
because of a shortage of approved
forest work projects iir other sec
tions of the country.”
Fechner said his present pro
gram will put 274,000 men in forest
work camps by July 1 and 300,000
by July 6.

Lamb is an excellent choice aff
the main dish for a spring lunch
