COUNCIL OF DEFENSE

Columbia. S. c., Aug. 6-The State
; Council of Defense has gone on record,
| by the adoption Of resolutions at the
bi-rG onthlY meeting held here Thurs
cay, as favoring a government fin
anced cotton corporation; and recon-
| mendation has been made to President
| Wilson and Congress that action be
taken, through the formation Of such
! a governmental agency, to fix a mini
mum price which the farmer may be
guaranteed for his cotton.
Another resolution adopted at this,
| probably the most constructive meet
ing yet held by the Council Of Defense,
directed the attention Of the War De-
nartment and Congress to the labor
shortage in South Carolina. which IS
| aggravated by the fact that many
women whost husbands are in the mil
, ltary service have left the fields where
! they have been accustomed to work
in former years, and are subsisting on
the allowances remitted by the War
Department. An appropriate remedy
to relieve this situation is asked for,
since many women are living in idle
ness while the farm labor shortage
grows more acute.
Two other resolutions, both of state
wide Importance were adopted. One
of these deprecates the sale and use
Of fireworks during the period of the
war and calls upon the municipalities
to forbid either. The other urges
members Of the county units to keep
on the alert for slackers, for those
who abuse the system of paying allot-
ments, and for other irregularities.
The Council of Defense appropriat-
ed 81 900 to help finance the work of
the State Illiteracy Commission.
The executive committee of the
Council of Defense has been enlarged
by the addition of three members,
who are Robert McDougall of Colum-
bla. w. A. Stuckey of Bishopville, and
Horace l.. Tilghman Of Marion.

to make them practically rat-proof;
and foodstuffs, as flour, seeds and
meats, may always BIZ protected in
wire cages at slight expense. The
public should be projected from in
sanitary stores by system of rigid
inspection.
Similar care should be exercised in
the home to protect household sup
plies from mice and rats. Little prog
ress in ridding the premises of these
animals can be made so long as they
nave access to supplies of food. Gel
lars, Kitchens, and pantries often fur
nish subsistence not only to rats that
inhabit the dwelling, but to many that
come from outside. Food supplies
may always be kept from rats and
mice if placed in inexpensive rat-proof

Sometimes all that is needed to pre-
vent serious waste is the application
Of concrete to holes in the basement
wall or the slight repair of defective
part of the building.
The necessity of cooperation and
organization is of the utmost import
ance. To destroy all the animals on
the premises of single farmer in a
community has little permanent value.
since they are soon replaced from
nearby farms. IF, however, the farm
ers of an entire township or county
unite in efforts to get rid of rats,
much more lasting results may be at
tanned. If continued from year to,
year, such organized efforts are very
effective. -

June Of last year, before the convoy
system was established, British ships

Field Marshal Won Hindenburg also
dilated on how economical the
troops Of Germany had been used. He
said:

Whereas, in the period from April to
dom in the main overseas trades suf-
fered losses through enemy action of
5.11 per cent Of their total number.
The figures since then have steadily
diminished until in the period from
March to June of this year, during
which 93.8 per cent Of the ships were
conveyed, the losses had dropped to
1923 per. cent of the total number of
sailing sin these, trades.
Over Million
American troops who reached Eu-
rope by July 27, of this year totalled
we'll over one million. Nearly half of
these were carried by American ships
and the United States furnished for
them forty ocean escorts and 335 es-
corts of destroyers.
Since August 4, 1914, the British
navy has transported nearly 10000
600 men to different destinations, q, =
100000 animals and 11O.OOO,OOO ami
mails and 100000 tons of naval
and military stores.

FOOD WASTE FROM RATS

In all parts Of the country there is
a serious economic drain in the de-
struction by rats and mice of mer-
chandise held for sale by dealers. Not
only foodstuffs and forage, but tex
tiles, clothing, and leather goods are
often ruined. This loss is due mainly
to the faulty buildings in which the
stores are kept. Often IT would be a
measure of economy to tear down the
OLD structures and repYace them by
new ones. However, even the old
buildings may often be repaired so as

FRED LOvELAND WAS DROWNED
Prominent Glenburn Young Man Lost
Life in MinOt Sunday While Bath
ing in Mouse River

Fred Loveland, the 21-year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Loveland, who
reside Is miles north and seven miles
west of Minot, was drowned while
bathing in the Mouse River at Dor
man park in Minot Sunday evening at
$50 O'clock. The body was recov-
cred in 20 feet of water 20 minutes
after he went down. The stranger
who went down after the body dis
appeared, without giving his name.
Walter Schrupp, aged 16 years, and
some smaller companions were bath
ing with the Loveland lad. They had
been bathing for a long time in the
river near Riverside park that after
noon and went over to Dorman park.
The boys were daring each other to
dive and Loveland who was a good
swimmer would not take the dare.
He was attacked with cramps, his
legs stiffening out and he called for
help. One of the boys pulled him
close to the shore, but the victim
jerked away and went down. Sew
eral women were on the shore but no
men were at hand.
Fred had been working on the farm
all summer, but came to Minot to
work until harvest. He leaves his
parents, an older brother, Charles,
who will soon be called in the draft;
one sister, Gladys, aged 16, and two
brothers, Everett, 9 and George II.
He was born at Milford, Ind, COM
ing here with his parents in 1902.
He was an especially fine manly young
fellow.
The funeral was held from the Love-
land home Tuesday afternoon, Rev.
G. L. Clifford preaching the sermon.
The funeral was in charge of j. D.
Van Fleet & Co. The remains were
inferred in the Glenburn cemetery.
There were fully so autos in the pro-
cession to the grave. The deceased
was nephew of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. H.

Canadian Robbed of $3.50 on 500
Train in MinOt.

A stranger. who resides in Canada
and whose name we were unable to
learn, was robbed of $3.50 by two fell
lows on the 500 train which passed
thru Minot Sunday morning. The vic
tim was enroute to Minneapolis and he
had gotten out of his seat as the train
reached Minot to acsist friend to
carry out some grips. AS he got into
the aisle, two men approached him,
one from each side, and crowded
against him. They must have relieved
him of roll of bills containing $3.50,
for shortly after the train started he
missed his money. He got off the
train at Velva and returned to Minot
reporting the matter to the police. He
was unable to give description of the
men and the police could not assist
him, so he proceeded to MINNEAPOLIS.
