An Appeal to Farmers
THE FEDERAL LAND BANK
Of Columbia.

Chesterfield, 5. G.
Dear Sir:
The following is copy of a tclc- =
gram just received by this Bank:
"Dalhart, Tex, Oct. 20, 1917. !
Federal Land Bank,
Columbia, S. c.
"No class of our people are more
vitality concerned in the successful!
prosecution Of the war with Germany
! than the farmers because the value
Of their product depends upon tho
maintenance of Americas right tC
the freedom of the seas, this RIGHT
being one of the chief things chal-
lodged by the German Kaiser in this
war. If our commerce can be dcS-
| troycd at the viii Of any foreign
power, as submission by the United
| States to the German Kaiscr'S cdict
would bring about, the farmer would
| be unable to sell their surplus crops
| in the open markets of the world and
the value Of our principal farm pro-
ducts would decline below the cost Of
production. America can never sur
render this vital right. We must
vindicatc it, We can swiftly win this
war, maintain our prosperity and Sc
cure the safety of our democracy
! here and at the same time make the
world safe for democracy if we ro
forward with resolution and courage
and support our gallant armies now
already in the field. To do this the
| farmers Of the United States as well
as all other classes of our people
must lend their money to the Govern
ment by buying United States Iibcr-
ty Bonds, which bear four per cent
interest and are exempt from almost
all taxation, State local and FEEDER
al. Farmers sons as well as the sons
Of all other classes of American citi-
zens are now in the field. We cannot
equip them with the arms and ammu-
milton which will give them the best
chance to save their own lives and
to win the war quickly unless the
Government can sell Liberty Bonds
from time to time. | want the Farm
Loan Bank to make IL special effort
from now until October twcnty-sc-
vcnth, when the subscriptions close,
to get every famcr to buy some of
these bonds. No matter how small
the amount. 1t is not only Il qucs-
ton of saving the rights and pros
perity Of the farmers and of all the
people of the United States, but of
| nrt,n .l,., .,l
ready been called to the colors and
through whose valor and fighting abil-
ity we shall soon rc-cStahliSh stable
and Just peace in the world. 1t is
the highest duty of patriotism of
the farmers and every other class of
people to support our gallant soldiers
in the war and UNFOLD Americas vi
tai rights. The least service any good
citizen and patriot can perform is To
lend his money to the Government
on the safest security in the world.
Set these facts to all the farmers in
your community and urge them TO do
their part
w. c. McADDO."
We earnestly request that you have
this given wide and immediate publ
city in your community.
We also urge that in this time Of
the nations need that the farmers
who are getting the highest prices in
their history, meet this call to their
patriotism, especially when patriotism
and good business are combined.

WRIGHT TELLS OF CONDITIONS
 AMONG MEN AT KEARNEY

Lieutenant Fred Wright, who is well known in this city. is at present in Tucson as a witness before the United States court. He stated to the press of that city that:
 The boys of the old First Arizona regiment, now 15Sth L. s. A., as well as the Arizona drafted men who have had the good fortune to be transferred to Camp Kearney, California, are su- premely happy in their new surround ings
 Before the arrival of the drafted men from Camp Funston, who were used in building up the old national guard and volunteer service to full strength fears were entertained tha there would be more or less rivalry and friction between these two ele- ments. These fears proved ground less. The old men filled the mattress es with straw and everything was ready for the new arrivals and the best of feeling prevailed from the start and at the end of three days the men were as Inummy as could be.
 When the drafted men arrived they were a sorry looking bunch. They looked as though they had been up against enemies all their lives and were simply wondering what new kind of a foe they would have to encounter at Camp Kearny. Many of the men were suffering from colds. The first thing they go was good warm meal. Then they were all lined up for inspec- tion and those in need of medical aid were given it. Warm beds were wait ing for those contingents which arriv- ed in the night
 2S,0o0 Men In Camp.
 There are now some 2S.OO0 men in camp. comprising troops from Cobra do. New Mexico. Arizona and Californ- ia. The men are sleeping under can vas. but with board floors and frames for the tents. The main streets are paved with concrete and the camp is

lighted with electricity. The mess quarters are built to accommodate 25O men at a setting and are electric light ed. The cooking is done with gas. The food is nourishing and there IS plenty of it.
 The camp is kept in fine sanitary condition. Garbage cans are hauled out every day and before being re- turned are thoroughly clensed and sterilized by steam.
 Though the new men were lacking sadly in equipment when they arrived, the acquisitions were promptly put in for uniforms and they were supplied with warm bed clothing. By the time I return these supplies will likely have been issued.
 "The men are up in the morning from 5:45 o'clock and of at 6 p. m. Af- ter that there is officers school for some of us until S:30 o'clock. There is plenty of hard work and intensive training but our commanding officer, Brig. General Cameron. believing that there is such a thing as going stale on the Job and for that reason Wednesday afternoons and Saturday afternoons and Sundays the men are given their liberty and usually spend it in San Die go."
