The South Carolina better farm living program is a definite part of this Sputhwide movement “During 1940 \the war clouds grew and darkened over Europe. , They have cast their shadows upon the shores. of America. First there was a curtailed export market for cotton and tobacco, which affected the income and welfare of practically all South Carolina farm families. Later the conditions became worse. They seriously threatened our way of life in the United States. It be came necessary for us to swiftly readjust and gear our resources and activities toward an adequate National Defense. “We now see the United States - buckling down to the job of pre paring itself to become strong enough to meet any possible emergency. In this . task farm people are playing, and will play, a vital part in the program. “In South Carolina we have gone a long way in diversifying onr agriculture Not only have we diversified our agricul ture, but through the expenditure of large sums of money we have materially benefited • the health conditions in rural areas. “The use of electricity in all sections of the rural areas has dime much to aid diversification, and to permit our rural population to benefit not only from the use of electricity but from its com forts as well. Farm-to-market roads and reduced freight rates have gone a long way in helping the program along. “The National Defense program with its large employment of labor and with its huge concentration of troops in various sections of South Carolina, will materially aid the farmer to sell his products. However, we must continue our efforts on all fronts to live at home—to diversify and to produce what we need.” Jo Relieve Misery L666 LIQUID.TABLETS.SALVE.

NOTICE OF DISCHARGE Sides Of Chilean Nitrate Of Soda Up Last Year * New York, March 4.—World sales of Chilean nitrate of soda for the year ended June 30, 1940, amount ed to 1,984,833 short tons, wnich is the largest figure in recbnt years, according to the annual re view published today by the Chilean Nitrate Sales Corporation. Shipments to United States terri tory, which is the largest single market, amounted to 720,709 tons after deducting trans-shipments to other countries. The bulk of all these shipments was for agri cultural purposes. “World sales can hardly stay at this level in the current year, however,” the Review states, “be cause the war has closed the greater part of the European market. On the other hand, com mercial sales to the United States and other markets are expected to increase, and no difficulty is an ticipated in arranging for sup plies to meet any demand from American farmers. “Because a war-time demand must make use of every possible source of supply, the United States Government has purchased 300,- 000 tons of Chilean nitrate, through the Defense Supplies Cor poration, as a strategic emergency material. “Chilean nitrate has not only proved its value over a short-term period; it has proved it in practi cal application in this country for over a hundred years. It has been used on practically every crop under practically all condi tions. At the Delta Experiment Station in Mississippi, it has been applied continuously for twenty years on cotton and corn. At the Pennsylvania Experiment Station it has been used continuously on apples for almost thirty years, and for over fifty years on a rota tion including com, oats, wheat, and hay. At the world-famous Rothamsted Experiment Station in England it has been applied continuously for 97 years on a similar rotation. Over these rela tively long periods of time, the yields and quality of the various crops have been substantially maintained.” UP AND DOWN AT NIGHT — MUSCLES ACHED WITH PAIN Rheumatic-like Pains Cause So Much Distress You Have Diffi culty Sleeping And The Pain Often Makes You Nervous, Let- Down—Your Neighbors Tell Of Way To Relief!
