Ny Dear Mr.. Editor:
The price of the farmers product,
wheat, has been fixed, but the far
mer will make no protest if the
prices Of other things are fixed ac-
cordingly. Congress has been given
the power to fix the prices on food,
fuel, fertilizer, and farm implements.
Nothing has been done on the
other items Of food, or on farm i'm
plements, which have gone up 100
per cent and more.
Wheat today would bring over
$500 per bushel, compared to other
prices Of manufactured goods.
Leather is 10 cents a pound on the
farm-a farmers harness costs 500.
Shoes have doubled in price. Cloth

Coul,. Be Infinitely Worse.

1t is extremely unfortunate that
farm labor has to be disturbed at
this season through the draft sys-
TEN. Some farmers are yet unde'
cided about their plans for the year.
However, Germany must be de-
feated and in order to accomplish
this end an army has to be raised as
early as possible, and in order to
send an army to Europe men have
to be sent first to the training
camps. All must therefore be pa
triotic and heroically rise to the oc-
casion, making whatever sacrifice is
required of US. AS bad as our stu
alton is, even the worst of us, 1t is
not one-tenth as distressing as that
of the European nations. Condi-
tiops could be infinitely worse.

day to proceed without delay TO the
base hospital at Camp Gordon to
enter upon the duties as regular

ory College No. 43 of Georgia, is
fully made up, she will leave for
foreign service.
Miss Woodson left on Sunday,
and is now in the service. So
Edgefeld now has a Red Cross

Miss Woodson is a daughter of
Mrs. Agatha Woodson. whose two
sons are in machine gun battalion

The Local Board.

The board has completed the
classification of all registrants ex-
cept those who have failed to fill
out questionDaires. A negro is To-
Gated mere and there every day or
two who has lot received ques-
tionaire. Citizens should co-ope-
rate with the board in locating
these men.
Practically all registrants in Glass
1 have been examined physically.
About 60 were referred to the
Medical Advisory Board, as pro-
vided in the Selectiye Service Reg
ulations and DR.. r. A. Marsh ac-
companied these men to Columbia
for examination Monday. All of
them were accepted for some form
of service except about half a doz-
en-. Even one-arm negro was
held by the Medical Advisory
Board as laborer.
The local board will, in response
to the 10th call for men, send l02
colored men to Camp Jackson Sat
urday morning at IL o'clock. a
nice lunch will be provided for the
men and they will receive good
attention, all expenses beng by the
government. A list of the men to
be sent to camp Saturday will be
published next week.

Managing Farms.

The requirement for successful
farm managers in the future will be
the ability of young men to operate
machinery rather than their physi-
cal strength to handle hand imple-
ments. There was time when
strong men able to use the hoe, the
ak and the grub hoe were in great
demand as farm hands. Today the
farm hand who can use machines
and the latest improved farm imple-
nents are wanted.
But successful farm managers are
few. There are still farm hands,
though they are not as easily hired
as formerly. But young men with
the ability necessary to manage the
farm are very hard to find.
The time will come, doubtless,
when land will be so high that it
will take young men without capi-
tai many years to pay for home.
This is true now in some localities.
But it does not seem that the time
will ever come when good farm
managers will not have great op-
portunities. Those who are CON-
petent to manage farms will have
far greater opportunities to earn
enough to pay for farms of their
own than many employed in cities
and towns.
The boys and young men on
farms should have every opportuni-
ty to learn some of the details of
farm management as we'll as farm
work. Whether they live on farms
of their own or seek employment
on other farms they should know
how to manage the farm.-Farm
and Ranch.

The average man is doubter.
This is not surprising-the public
have been humbugged so frequent
quently they are skeptical. Proof
like the following will stand inves-
tigation. 1t cannot be disputed.

hanger, Butler ST., Edgefeld, says:
Il was bothered by kidney trouble
nearly all my life. 1t grew worse
after an attack of measles. Doan's
Kidney Pills removed the pains and
strengthened and regulated my kid
neys. My health became better than
it had been in many years. :"
