FOR A FULL FOOD ACREAGE

Columbia. -; Mr.. David r.
Cohor, chairman Of tho South
Carolina Council Of Denfenso. in
his appeal to this State, states
the Importance Of raising more
foodstuff. Mr.. Coker himself Is
q most splendid farmer and Ia In
close touch with the national SIT
uatior, and what he has to say IS
ef the 1no-t Importance. In his
appeal he says:
"The food situation is increa.
ingly serious. High cotton must
not prevent full food acreage.
Many farmers do not intend to
plant sufficient foodstuffs. These
must be reached in these few
days remaining before planting
Is completed"

Mr.. and Mrs. G. B. Jordan and
daughter, Miss Emily, Of Greenville,
spent the weekend in the home Of
J. P. Stribling.
An auto carrying the colored band
from the parade and speaking at
Westminster Saturday afternoon
turned turtle on the road In front of
B. f. Drivers residence, west Of
Richland. No one was seriously
hurt. One or two horns, however,
"blowcd" bit squeaky after the
wreck. Moral: Hold your car back

Cure for Pneumonia.
(World's Progress }

Take six to ten onions, according
to size, and chop fine, put in a large
spider over hot fire; then add
about the same quantity of rye meal,
and vinegar enough to make a thick
paste: In the meanwhile, stir thor
oughly, letting 1t simmer five or ten
minutes. Then put it in Il cotton bag
large enough to cover tho lungs and
apply 1t to the chest as hot as the
patient can bear. When this gets
cool apply another, and thus con-
tinue by rehcating the poultices, and
in a few hours the patient will be out
of danger. This simple remedy has
never failed in the too often fatal
malady. Usually three or four appli-
cations will be sufficient, but continue
always until perspiration starts free
ly from the chest. This simple rem
edy, says the New England Grocer,
was formulated many years ago by
one Of the best physicians New Eng
land has ever known, who never lost
patient by this disease, and won
his renown by saving persons by
simple remedies after the best medi-
cal talent had pronounced their
cases hopeless Personally we know Of
three presons who were saved by
the remedy last winter in Boston,
after their physicians had given them
up to die; and If record was made
of all similar cases during the last
six years, 1t would fll a good-sized
volume.

Just at this moment the chief
drive is to conserve wheat. The
authorities in Washington are
trying to make q voluntary saw

do not respond, more drastic
measures may have to be taken.
The Food Administration has
worked out the best plan after
careful study and closely watch
ing results, and have notified the
food administrators throughout
the country that they are re-
quired to enforce as best they
can the following rules:
First, householders to use not

GOV. SIGNS RRFoR,IAToRY ACT.

sion of the General Assembly, Great

reformalory to1 negro boys and the
South Carolina Industrial School at
Florence. Immediately thereafter
the Governor named the members of
this board. Those appointed were:
B. G.. Clary, Gaffney, one year.
J. A. Mood, Sumter, two years.
p. M. Matthews, Florence, three
years. @
w. p. Wilbur, Charleston, four
years.
DR.. A. T. Jamison, Greenwood,
Ave years. DR.. Jamison was made
chairman of the board.
The Governors action followed q
joint meeting of the State Board of
Charities and Corrections, the board
of the industrial school, directors of
the State penitentiary and regents of
the State Hospital for the Insane,
which decided to place the institu-
tion for wayward girls on the 2,1O0-
acre tract of land across Broad
River, in Richland county, whore the
reformatory for negro boys is sta
toned. A tract Of about Ats acres
for the negro reformatory and 593
acres for the Industrial school for
girls was transferred from the con-
troll OF the State penitentiary by
deed, the latter institution reserving
timber and pasturage rights. Plans
for the permanent location Of the
school for the feeble-minded were
not determined, as the probabilities
are, If a sufficient supply Of water
2 can be secured, the institution will
be placed at the 2,40O-acre tract at
State Park. 5sA ss
sss7rhe act signed by the Governor
holds in Office the members of tho
board of the Industfial School at
Florsnce until their forms OF office
have expired. Governor Manning
said that some Of the members terms
had expired, and the others resigned.
He then appointed the State Board
of Correctional Administration.
Three Of the9members OF the indus
trial board-Dr. Jamison, DR.. Mat
thews and DR.. Clary--were appointed
on the correctional board.
The signing OF the act to-day by

for negro boys without an appropria-
ton, as 1t was unit Of the State

ling. 5,a.S
