where in this fight and he must serve

Campaign for Wheat
cone acre of wheat to the ploW,
was the slogan adopted by the State
council for the campaign which IS
soon to be inaugurated for more
wheat. This suggestion was made oy
the Rev. O. T. Porcher, chairman OF
the Darlington council, and H. W.
woodward, chairman Of the Lee coun-
Gil. W. W. Long, State farm demon
stration agent and member Of the food
committee Of the council, outlined
the plan of campaign for more grain
The federal department of agriculture
has called upon South Carolina to in
crease the wheat acreage this fall
from 225, 900 to 325,000 acres, or abou,
81 per cent. AI do not think thay
there will be any trouble in securing
the necessary acreage in wheat" said
DR.. Long. He said that he did no:
think it would be a wise policy to
grow all of the wheat needed for
South Carolina because that would
| cause a reduction in the cotton and
! corn acreage. The county agents
working under the direction Of Clem-
son College and the farm demonstra-
ton office. Dr.. Long said, have been
busy for several weeks taking a CEN
sus of the available seed This in
formation will be given to the farm
ers at a very early date. There Is no
scarcity Of seed cats. DR.. Long Will
scon have a list Of farmers in North
