4 READY MARKET
FOR CANNED GOODS
Home Canned Products Will
be Given Preference Over
Maryland and Virginia Pack
by Large Concerns.

Columbia.-A ready market has
oeen developed in South Carolina for
all home-canned fruits and vegetables
that will be put up during the com.
mestic needs. This announcement has
been made by the Conservation and
Production Division Of the Food Ad.
.ministration, which has been work
ing on the problem Of marketing Of
home-canned products for the past
two months. A number Of the lead.
Ing wholesale grocers and jobbers Of
the State have not only expressed
their willingness to buy home-canned
fruits and vegetables properly pre-.
pared for commercial use, but will
give the home-canned product the
preference over Maryland and vir.
ginia packed goods.
The Food Administration has on
file the requirements of several large
concerns and has been asked to find
the canned products to supply their
needs. Thousands Of cans Of fruits
and vegetables can be readily sold,
but the packers will be required, as
matter of course, to conform to cer-
tain tEade rules.
In the first place, the price must be
In conformity with that for which
Maryland and Virginia packed goods
can be bought.
Canned products should net be Of
fered for the wholesale trade except
IN large lots. It is suggested that
farmers and others who desire to put
upfruits and vegetables for the market
form marketing agencies, in order that
their product may be handled in larg-
eg lots to a greater advantage.
The grades must be uniform and
certain standards maintained. The
canned product must of course be put
up in uniform cases, and the cans uni.
formly labelled.
Contracts for fall deliveries should
be made now or In the very near
future.
Canning clubs, community clubs or
marketing agencies with large guam
titles Of canned fruits and vegetables
to offer for sale should write the Food
Administration, Conservation and Pro-
duction Division, at Columbia, stating
what they have to offer at the present
time or what they viii have to deliver
IN the fall, stating the price desired
and all information.
The Food Administration will make
no purchases or sales, but it may serve
as a connecting link to bring the pack.
ers and the dealers together.
As has already been announced,
there will be plenty of cans and jars
available for hone Gamers during the
coming season. Communities that are
not supplied should report to the Food |
Administration at Columbia, and mer-
chants will be put in touch with
sources Of supply upon request At.
tractive stock labels can be bought
at very low price.
Packers of fruits and vegetables
should remember that they cannot ex-
pect to receive the retail price for
their products if sold at whole sale,
and those who have only job lots to
offer should seek a market in their
home communities. The wholesaler
and the jobber cannot handle Job
lots.
Any information which may be de-
sired by any interested person or can
ming club will be furnished by the
and Production Division
Of the Food Administr alton, Columbia. |

WHAT THE WOMANS' DIVISION
OF STATE COUNCIL OF
: DEFENSE y.
{By Miss Ethel I. Brooker)


There is a confused idea in some
Aainds that the woman's division is
n separate organization. Many ex-
listing women's organizations do not
appreciate the fact that they are CO.
,erdinated with the Woman's Division.
The Woman's Division of the State
Council of Defense is a clearing house
for the patriotic activities of women
1t is in no sense rival of any organ
izaion, nor has it ayn desre to detract
from the activities and prerogatives
OF any other.
The intent, from the National Com
npittee down, is to make use of any
other existing organizations, thus
conserving the force of all women
and keeping intact the organizations
that are in the field. One reason
why the Government established the
Woman's committee was that it could
not deal with thousand woman's Or
CARNATIONS each seeking special re-
cognition and SPECIAL tasks. The Wo-
mans Division is the agency en-
ployed by the government for the
carrying out of it's instructions to
women.
Before this can ge done systemat-
ieally every member of every organ
ization must have a Though under
standing of the purpose and method
Of the Council of Defense.
The Woman's Division of Lexing-
ton Gounty's Council of Defense is do
ing the tasks assigned it nobly. Mrs
G j Rucker of Swansea is chairman
and she has organized many of the
women in the different townships
throughout the county.
Batesburg, Lexington and Swansea
are the only towns having the Red
Cross Surgical dressings rooms but
they are all busily engaged with large
orders.
Those who cannot assist with the
surgical dressings are helping with
the hospital garments and in many
other ways.
Recently the county chairman Or
ganized an auxiliary council with COL
ored women of Swansea; and she is
very anxious that all township chair
men assist her in organizing the COL
ored women Of each township. 1t is
highly important that these women
help in the work of gardening, food
conservation, sanitation, child welfar=
and Liberty Loan and Red Cross;
and the Woman's Division of the
county can render invaluable aid to
the government at this time by their
cooperation with these auxiliary coun
ellis. ETHEL I BROKER
Publicity Chairman.
