Permanent quarters for 5000 troops
will be built nj the state military
reservation at GraylinE by the state
military board.
Plans for a $4,000 hospital and a
$4,000 administration building have
already been approved by the board
while specifications are now being
drafted for barracks. mess halls and
other buildings.
No orders to prepare have been re-
ceived, but word from Major-General
Thomas ii. Barry commanding the
central department at Chicago, indi-
Gates that fixing the Grayling grounds
for the housing of an entire division
OF $4,000 men would be timely.
Under the present tentative guess
that the entire division may go to

tents can he dispensed with, and all
soldiers be housed in structures. To
erect these for an entire division, how

THE DISC HARROW.

Clemson College, April Every
farmer who has used the disc har.
row appreciates its value for pro-
ducing a fine seed bed. However
as a general rule farmers look upon
a harrow as an implement to use
after the plow, and never think of
what great value il is when used
before plowing. AS soon as the
land gets into condition for plowing
in early spring, there is a rush to
get through. Often before the land
can all be plowed it has dried out
so much that ii crusts over, and
turns up in clods This is where the
disc harrow proves of great value.
All the land which cannot be plowad
should at least be run over by the
disc harrow to form a mullen so
that 1t will not crust over before II
can be plowed. 1t will always be a
good plan to use the disc harrow in
this manner in the spring and sum-
mer, as at these seasons the mois-
ture gets out Of the land before il
can all be plowed. BY making al
mulch of loose earth with the disc
harrow plowing can be continued
with satisfaction, and the land put
into good condition. The land
should not be allowed to bake on
top. If a disc harrow is not avail
able, then use the next best imple-
ment, and put a mulch over the soil.
Beneath the mulch the soil will re-
main mellow and in turning there
will be an absence OF the despised
clods which make cotton stands so
uncertain.

LOOK AFTER SPRING
LITTERS OF PIGS

Clemson College, April "a
comfortable house with dry bedding
means much to the spring pigs. In
fact, all other conditions may be per-
feet and yet if this point is neglected
failure may result.
Get the pigs on a milk or milk and
shorts ration by the third week OF
their existence, II possible. This
may be done by building a small pen
OR creep near their bedding place,
and putting a small amount of milk
in shallow vessel (something that
can't be overturned). They will soon
learn to eat. Increase the feed as
they advance in age, but don't feed
more than they will clean up. Keep
the vessel clean by occasional scald-
irg and summing.
The first four months OF a pigs
life determines largely his after sue
cess. Never let him lose his "pig
fat" during this time. Prepare now
for ample grazing, by sowing rape
or rape and grain mixed. This can
be grazed by the pigs within six to
eight weeks after sown. Allow them
TO run on any green crops, especially
clover or vetch, as soon as they will
graze-usually by the time they are
four to five weeks old.
Keep a succession of field grazing
crops maturing throughout the sum-
mer and fall to supplement their
daily ration of grain and to enable
them to produce at a profit. Hogs
fed on grain alone without grazing
crops, will give little or no profit.

DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin an Ideal
Remedy for Constipation.
In. every family there is more or

1t Is to meet this need that DR.. Cald-

that this combination of simple laxa-

pose is proven by it's place in thou-
sands of American homes.
Prof. F. j. Hertzog, the we'll

Constipation is the direct cause OF
much serious illness and is a cond!-
tion that should never be neglected.
Harsh cathartics and violent purga.
tives should never be employed to-
relieve constipation, because the very
violence Of their action shocks the
entire system. A mild laxative, such
as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable, being mild and gentle in

30 farmers and farmers sons stopped
their work to attend.
The Roughly people turned out in

All the clubs organized so far show

PATRIOTISM IN THE KITCHEN

Each housewife who dons her ma

and starts in with the proper deter
mination to do her Bit toward the
great food conservation campaign is
as much patriot as the man who
runs a pillow or carries a gun" said
Miss Bah Bell of the Missouri College
of Agriculture recently in discussing
the housekeeper's part in the war.
However, most housewives are be-
coming alarmed and confused at the
numerous warnings on all sides
eliminate waste, Substitute mex
pensive foods for expensive ones,'
"Use left-overs." If the women rep
resenting the 20,000,00O homes in this
country are to accomplish anything
they must stop talking and begin
work now in sane and systematic
manner" said Miss Bell.
1.-THE first logical step for every
housewife is to make thorough
study of food values. For the last
fifteen years home economies special
lists have been preaching food values.
but very little attention was given
this subject until recent years. Now
when we stand face to face with the
present great food shortage every wo-
man sees the absolute necessity of
having this knowledge. She sees that
without it she is helpless to make the
proper selections and the proper SUBJ
stitutions."

HEALTH is A MORAL
ASSET, DOCTOR SAYS

Columbia, Mo-, May .-"The pub
lie has become accusb ed to the
preaching of health-docA J, urging
the preservation of healtl~,and up
building of the body for tn purpose
OF producing and maintaining eff
cheney of mind and body alike, but
few people realize the effect that sound
health has on the moral tone of a
community" DR.. M. p. Ravenel of the
department of preventive medicine of
the University of Missouri declares.
The clergymen of our country have
missed a great opportunity in not
studying some medicine. A course
in medicine would improve the work
of all clergymen and all sociologists,
in fact all of those who are concerned
in any way in the welfare of a COM
munity and the country.
"Clergymen and churches generally
are slow to recognize what has been
known to physicians for many years,
namely, that sound health conduces
to sound morals. The old adage, "A
sound mind in a sound body is sim
ply another way of putting this, be-
cause many moral equips have an I'M
sound mind at their root.
"Often well intentioned but ignorant
people waste a good deal of time in
religious efforts when comparatively
simple treatment of the BODY would
bring the person into sound religious
condition.
"Dr. Williams, the Health Commits
sioner of Virginia, has stated these
facts as follows:
mo social agency is more earnest
in its demands upon the church for
cooperation than is the cause of pub
lie health; no agency, to my mind,
offers a greater return for such CO.
operation. Public health asks the
church to join hands with it in giving
men better bodies, and it promises that
when mems bodies shall be stronger
their spirit will be nobler. Public
health asks the church to assist it in
making sanitary the community to
which the church ministers, and it
pledges the experience of the world to
show that, when this is done, none
will benefit more than the church. All
things being even, the healthy man is
the moral man; other considerations
alike, the sanitary community is the
SDlritual cOmmIInitu'b
