thropic and humanitarian standpoint
and each and every one "do his bit"
to meet an eXigcncy that seems in
cvitable. Let us all try to be fac
tor in the production Of an extra 10O,-
100000 pounds Of poultry meat, which
is less than 1 pound additional for
each man, woman and child in the
United States.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has just issued an esti-
mate that upwards of $7O0,OOO,OO0 is
the annual tribute paid by Americans
to the garbage can. Why not convert
this into feed to produce poultry and
eggs.
Every home can have self-sup-
porting and profitable flock in the
back yard by converting the offal
from the table and kitchen into the
very choicest of poultry feed. Why
such an astounding waste, an utter
| extravaganza that costs us nearly 81
for every man, woman and child in
the United States? Let every home
have neat poultry house and a few
well-kept, profitable fowls. The edi-
tor of this publication will be only
too pleased to cooperate with every
reader desiring any information.

Every citizen with flock Of poultry
in the back yard, every farmer with
his flock of turkeys, ducks, geese or
chickens, should continue his hatch
ing during the months Of May and
June.
We must produce more poultry
meat than ever before to help supply
the great shortage of food that seems
inevitable. With poultry, we have a
means Of supplying the most desir-
able-thc cheapest and quickest meat
product of any other source of meat
supply.
The wonderful agricultural re
sources of the United States in these
war times are going to be taxed to
the uttermost, for in addition to sup
plying our home demands, we shall
be called upon to aid IN supplying
food to millions of suffering humanity
in the worlds torn and stricken war
zone. Remember our friends in the
trenches. Let us each do our bit.

COMMUNICATED
Mr.. Andrew Burgess,
Auditor Clarendon County,

|
Auditor Clarendon County.
Dear Sir: understand from rum
ors that you have not taken road tax
returns this year, thereby depriving
Clarendon County of revenue
amounting to around $4,000.
And understand that you give as
your reason that some act Of the past
legislature would make it illegal to
collect road tax for the year of 1917.
Now Sor, if there was anything
past at the last session that would
bring about this condition will you
please let us and the people of the
county know what it is? AS l am
sure it was done through ignorance
and not intentional.
I can only speak for myself, but /
believe it will apply to all of the
delegation, that gave the county
the same business attention that 1
have always given to my own busi-
ness.
Respectfully yours,
w. w. Johnson.

Mr.. w. w. Johnson,


Alcolu, S. c.
Dear SIR
l have your letter of the 10Th inst,
with reference to the collection of
Road Taxes in Clarendon County for
the year 1917.
1t seems that I have misconstrued
a letter which 7 received from the
Comptroller General on March 9th,
1917, and after coming to Columbia
today and consulting with the Comp
troller General and the Attorney Gem
eral, l find that the Act signed by
the Governor on the 18th February
does not go into effect until 1913.
This being the case, l will put on the
$500 Road Tax for the fiscal year
1917, the same as In past years. Next
year, 1918, the new law takes effect
and l will keep a separate book for
Road Taxes, and everyone subject to
the Road Tax at that time will be
subject to the $500 Tax unless they
optionally work the Roads, under the
Act of February 13, 1917.
Yours very truly,
A. P. Burgess,
Auditor of Clarendon County.

PRESIDENT RICHARDS
CALL TO POULTRYMEN
Must Produce an Extra Pound of
Poultry for Each Man, Woman,
Child in Nation.

Before another Matching season, the
great United States will, no dout, be
in the deepest throcs of the worlds
most cruel war and no one can fore
tell the counties thousands that may
be crying for bread. 1t is up to the
United States, the worlds greatest,
richest and most rcsourceful nation,
to not only look after the welfare Of
her own citizens, but to give aid and
assistance in supplying food to count
less thousands Of suffering humanity
in the torn and stricken war zone
The great agricultural resources of
America must prepare to assume this
burden. Every one of us must do our
bit. Every acre, every nook and cor
ner must bear its share. 1t is lucky
that in poultry we can produce the
cheapest and most quickly produced
meat of all the various sources of
our meat supply. Here, we have an
opportunity of producing an extra
one hundred million pounds if the
American farmers, the fancicrs and
breeders will give their attention to
Matching during the months Of May
and June.
1t is we'll known fact that the
available supply Of meat products is
today the lowest in our country, per
capita, in the history Of the United
States. In order to meet the cx-
tremcly dangerous condition, we have
within ourselves a wonderful oppor-
tunity Of aiding what may prove to
be a worldwide cry for food. Let
us all join enthusiastically in the
propaganda Of helping in the probable
time of need, by putting forth now
every effort to meet, in measure,
the demand that is sure to come for
untold quantities Of foodstulfs. Never
in the history of the world will there
be a greater demand than in the next
twenty-four months that are to follow.
For the past twcnty-four months
we have been killing the goose that
has been laying the golden egg, and
with the hue and cry Of costly feed,
poultry and all meat products have
been soaring far above all the usual
estimates as to the relative cost of
production and the selling price. The
margin Of profit on The production of
eggs and poultry for meat is far in
excess of the percentage of profit in
normal times. But aside from the
question of profit, we Americans must
look at the situation from a philan-

Edna Goodrich, one OF the most

State Food Director Denies that
Poison Turks in Canned Goods

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 6-Dr. H. e.
Barnard, Indiana representative OF the
federal food administrator, issued a
statement today denying that pto-
maine poisoning lurked in canned
goods or that 1t was dangerous to
lave the contents of can in the
receptacle after 1t Is opened. The
statement follows:
The prejudice against the use OF
canned foods which was but few
years ago so common that most house
wives used the excellent products OF
the Gamer with fear and trembling,
has almost died out But there are
still some people and even some
physicians who are obsessed with the
fallacy that ptomaines some how or
other result from the contact of foods
With tine surfaces. The fact in that
the injurious products are not formed
in the tin can until ii is perforated so
that the contents spoil because OF the
introduction OF mold or bacteria from
the outside II 1t we're possible to
dissolve enough tin from the lining OF
the can a slight metallic poisoning
might result, but as matter or fact
the tin in the can does not dissolve.
] have examined sweet corn which had
been packed for more than twenty-five
years and found the corn entirely
satisfactory as a food and the lining
of the can as bright and fresh as when
the food was first put up. The acid
naturally present in food dissolves tin
plate very slowly Canned goods put
up for year or two or three are just
as wholesome when finally eaten as
when fresh packed.
Another FaIlacy.
There is still another fallacy which
is common among Housewives and
which is frequently repeated by men
and women who ought to know better,
and that Is the idea that as soon as
package of canned goods is opened the
contents should be emptied into some
other receptacle A little reflection
on the part OF those who are afraid
to leave food stand in the tin can will
recall the fact that tin utensils are
common in every kitchen. Milk pals
and milk pans have held the milk for
generations and no one yet has ever
suggested that the Tactic acid in milk
dissolves off enough tin to produce
any toxic symptoms. The Jagged
edges of an opened tin can may LAGER

The laboratories OF the National

show conclusively that the solution Of
the tin proceeds SO slowly that 1t Is
impossible for food to be made in the
