FARMERS ON TOP
IN CHESTERFIELD

Cheraw, Sept. 22.-Early in
the season the prospects for a good
year for farmers were bright. Twen-
| ty-five per cent. more acreage had
been planted in grain than ever be-
| fore, while the cotton acreage was
| about the same as last year. One
\ third more land had also been put in
| animal feedstutfs. But The News
| and Courier correspondent made sew
eral trips over the length and breadth
of Chesterfield County lately, view
| ing crops and talking with farmers
and merchants, and found people not
so cheerful. On some places only a
| half crop of cotton will be made,
while the corn is splendid everywhere.
| They are sending off this year for
feedstuifs, as the storm last wear
knocked out the farmers; but next
year they will be hceled.
While many were not economiZinp
IN the use of vegetables. having had
more than they knew what to do with.
| they put up more canned goods this
year than they have ever done before.
AS sample, one lady not far from
| CheraW put up over two hundred
cans Of tomatoes, between two and
three hundred cans Of beans and the
same OF soup mixture, several hun
dred cans Of peaches, and a good
number each of cherries, berries of
different kinds, squash, cabbage,
beets, apples, canned and dried, and
many other things, including sauer-
iiraut. This is no isolated case, as
tin cans were shipped into the county
IN carload lots, and one store in Che
raw alone sold over twelve hundred
dozen pars. Fifty thousand tin cans
we're shipped in for the tomato clubs
and community canning plant in the
county.
Not much attention was given to
live stock this year, but more hogs
and poultry have been raised. Twcn-
ty-hve per cent. more commercial
fertilizers were used by the farmers.
With all the ups and downs in the
iarmcrs's life this year he is coming
| out on top. One man who hereto
fore just got square with the banks
each year, and had enough left for
| Christmas presents, will this year
| clear $4,000. There are more men in
| the same shape.-Thc Charleston

Government Answers Foolish Yarn;
Will Not Seize Home Supplies

Washington, D. c. Sept. 26-
There is no truth in a widely cir
culated statement that the Govern
ment expects to take food supplies
from any family Both the Food Ad-
ministration and the Department of
Agriculture join in statement to
counteract what seems to be a delib-
crate propaganda to the effect that
the Government intends to take from
every family all canned goods put UP
in excess of 100 quarts.
This is only one of the variations
of the rumOr, which has been widely
circulated. Another statement is
that the Government has been urg-
ing the canning, drying, and preserv-
ing of fruits and vegetables so that
they will be in convenient form for
the Government to handle and trans
port when it takes them away from
the people. Further elaboration is
that these good are to be taken away
from the American homes and ship
ped to England
In one instance motorist stopped
at farmhouse to fill the radiator of
his automobile. In course of con-
versation he casually inquired wheth-
er the farmers family was canning
all the surplus fruits and vegetable,
In order to help conserve the food
supply. He was informed that the

The following letters have been re-

lace relative to the Whereabouts and
condition of his son, Jesse. a Ger
man prisoner Of war.
1t will be remembered that Mr.

United States and Germany we're at
war. Mr.. Wallace was travelling on
a mule ship, the Esmeralda, which
was sunk by a German submarine
and he, along with several other
Americans, WIS taken prisoner.
These letters are evidence of the
wonderful work being done by the

Advertiser,
Chesterfield, S. C.
Dear Sir:
Help to reduce the shingle roof
fires by advising the people at this
season of the year, that they should
put piece of old sheet zinc or an
old discarded dry cell battery in their
fire places and stoves. The fumes
from this will rid the chimneys of
SCOT and save money and houses
Help prevent fires by urging peo-
pie to rid their cellars, garrets and
premises of trash. Have no greasy
rags about the house to start spon-
taneous combustion fires. Do not
put ashes OF any kind in wooden
boxes. Replace weathercd shingles
with tin or some non -combustible
roof and see that the electrical wir-
ing has not the the insulation worn
Off and is in good order.
Help save the property of the peo-
pie. This may not reduce insurances
rates but it will save loss to MANY
citizens.
Very truly,
F. Fl. McMaster,
Insurance Commissioner.
