time than has been the fondest hope lB
of our own people or the nations ^B
with which we are associated," Chair- ^B

in presenting the diplomatic and con- ^B
sular appropriation bill. The chair- ^B
man's assertion wns mnHo in mitlin.
ing the state department's war activities.
As the result of the work of
the House missions to Great Britain
and France, Mr. Flood said: "A com- HB
plete understanding exists of precise- Hfl
ly what the allied need from this
country and exactly what this coun-^^H
try can furnish and when and how.'iJ^H
The appropriation bill Carries
206,087 for the next fiscal year,
000,000 more than the current ap-^^H
propriation.
DON'T WASTE SEED
William Elliott, Food Administrator,
has issued the following statement:
|H
"Reports have reached this office HH
that farmers in certain sections of
the State are feeding seed to cattle,
and in some instances using seed for^^B
fertilizers. Such a policy on the part^^B
or any producer is snorc-signiea wnen^H
the prevailing price for cotton see^^^H
is obtainable and results in an ecc^^^H
nomic loss as well as destroying
able food for man and beast.
"The Food Administration wouj^^^H
like to see this wasteful practice
minated. Rule 4 of the Special Rul^^HJ
of the United States Food Adroini^^^D
tration prohibits the use of cotto^^^H
seed for feed or fertilizers withoi^^^H
the written consent o fthe State Fon^^^H
Administrator. It is probable
few farmers who are practicing' thi^^^B
wasteful method realize the loss both^^H
to themselves and to their fellow man
'(-suiting in the utilization of co t? n
seen in thir. manner.
"America is the greatest
store-house in the world today mid
there must be no waste of essential
food pi'ducts. The oil whica ->
':a?'<d from the cotton se'l ? u
food product." BH
UN
The war department has had in- :
troduced in Congress a bill to require
the registration of all men who have y
attained the age of twenty-ond since p
June 6th, last. This bill will be j .
passed and a million new men, most- wer
ly ones who will be classified in first ^(>
class, will be registered sometime this
spring but probably will not be called ger
into military service before Septem- ^ (
ber as the men now being classified
awn
as first class will furnish enough men j(
to make up the draft to be made in .. .
March or April. I .
President has asked Congress for ?
authority to draft men out of their
class and order numbers where spe- j
cial men are needed as trained me- ^
chanics or experts in agriculture. ! Qer
After the 16th, when all register- p
ed men have been classified, the Local
Board of Selection will order up e(J
for physical examination all (<or
whp have been jftaced in Class;
I. But being ordered up
for examination does not mean one y
is ordered into military service at tjcn
that time. From those in Class one onc
who pass the doctors, selections will Gnr
be ritade according to order number A(j(
for military service. After complet- not

It is not yet decided how much
flour will have to be returned or
when, but all who have a supply on

of these officers.
of these Officers just how much he
has, since the government has announced
that only a thirty-days supply
will be allowed.
SOLDIER INSURANCE
Millions of dollars of Government
Insurance are being bought by the
soldiers at Camp Jackson, Columbia,
S.
'Realizing that February 12th. 1918
is the last day, soldiers are buying
insurance nt an unprecedented rate?
$24,403,000.00 has been applied for
in one week, and the total amount
sold up to January 26th 1918 is
$104,601,000.00.
Lieut. David H. Fuller, Division
Insurance Officer reports that the
campaign to irfsure every man at
J Camp Jackson is well under way and
that over 70 per cent of the entire
division is insured and that every effort
is being put forth by every officer
in the command to reach the
remaining 30 per cent, before the
last day arrives.
The proposition put to the soldiers
is so fair, so reasonable and so American
that relatives and friends of
every soldier in this camp should see
to it that the man in kervice is fully
insured to the maximum amount,
$10,000.00. This ean be done easily,
for if a soldier finds that he is unable
to pay the premiums, any parent,
relative or friend can pay the premiums
for him by sending a check i
each month or each year to the Bu-i
reau of War Riak Insurance, Washington,
D. C. Should there be any
doubt about the payment* of. these
premiums, information may be had
by writing to the Insurance Officer,
81st Division, Camp Jackson, S. C.
Talks at the different Y.M.C.A.
are made almost every night in the
interest of Government Insurance.
But nothing helps like a.letter from
the folks back home tellinfc-the boy
that they believe in this insurance.
Every day letters are being received
from soldier's mothers end fathers
asking if their boy has taken out this
insurance. These men invafibly take
out insurance. A "100 per cent. Division"
is the slogan of the insurance
officers and almost every day several
companies cross the safety .line and
place their outfit in the 100 per cent,
column with every man insured. The
number of companies being added to
the "honor roll" is increasi^r and
will increase each day as February
12th draws nearer.
Quick action is necessary on the
part of the home folksi uA^yire to
