By wonderful providence
the section about Florence was
blessed with very helpful
shower on last Saturday morn
ing. It had been dry here for
several days previously, and
vegetation seemed a little slow
to move off. Another shower
will probably be needed in eight
or ten days. The farmer~is ap-
pealed to strenuouslv. to raise all
the corn he can. This country de-
ponds largely upon the food
raiser to help in the great strug-
gle for christian democracy a.
gainst autocracy and militarism.
Let every farmer show his patri-
otism by needing the call of our
good President and prove that
the farmer is behind the Presi-
dent in the great fight. So you
plant your corn and other feed
stuff, friend farmer, think of our
own soldier boys in the big bat
ties in Europe or in the hospitals
sick or wounded. and be stimu-
lated to do your best to help.
Since the Allies have checked
further progress of the German
drive towards Paris, there is no
guessing how long the two big
armies will be facing each other
at a stand still, or until there be
an offensive movement by the
one or by the other. During the
waiting and watching the Allied
troops need careful feeding and
they must have food in reason
able abundance to maintain the
physical strength of the individ-
ual fighters. Don't let us forget
this. The farm and the ship
yard are two factors just now to
give aid and comfort to our men.
Our success in this big strug-
gle depends very largely upon
these two industries-the farm
and the ship building. Remem-
Der this, friend farmer, and
operate your farm with an eye to
this thought. There is plenty of
room in the ship-building yards
for any man wanting a job. The
pay is fairly good and sufficient
to induce any idler to take hold
of such a job if he wants work
at all. The government proposes
to release any farmer who will
honestly and diligently work his
farm and produce a food harvest.
The same is the case with a
hired hand, white or black.
The third Liberty Bond Loan
is to be $4,000. 900, 600 at At per

that it is desired that families

should heed the food administra-

flour have returned to the re-
taller, two and one million pounds
of flour in responce to the food
administrations appeal against
boarding. Sebastion county a.
lone reported the return of e.
$50 barrels. Some few weeks
ago the food administration urg-
ed that consumers hold no more
flour in the present crisis than
their ordinary needs require,
and said, that city families hold
ing more than "a pounds, or
country families holding more
than 48 pounds would be unpa-
triotic. The less flour or wheat
we buy for our own use. the
better the chances to have wheat
or flour TO send to the allied SOL
diers in Europe. A pound omit
ted here and there from the

shipped abroad. Think of this,
