Il ls the Patriotic Duty Of Every One
to Help Provide for Himself In
Present Crisis.
Columbia, April s.-In planting war
gardens, the advice Of Herbert Hoover.
United States Food Administrator, is:
PLANT what you will be able to use,
not what you think you may be able
to sell"
There has probably never been o
time since the South was blockaded
during the War Between the Sections
when it has been so vitality necessary
for the people of South Carolina to
concern themselves about the ques-
ton Of food supplies, not only that
the soldiers fighting in Europe and
the Allied soldiers and peoples may be
fed, but, because of the unsatisfactory
food situation, that they may not suf
fer at home.
Food production during the coming
summer and fall calls On people Ia

JUNGLE LAW.

Contributed by ROBERT HER.
RICK to the National Security
Leagues campaign Of Patriotism
Through Education.)
Returning from Europe, cursed with
war. l was more convinced than OF
anything else in life that what is be-
ing slowly settled in that grim trench
land over there DOES mean some
thing to us-more, oh, 30 much more,
than money or legal rights or SYM
pathy for bleeding humanity. Not
that am especially apprehensive Of a
raid on these United States, the crum-
bling Of our skyscrapers, with the ex-
action Of colossal indemnities. That,
too, of course, might happen If Ger
man arms were triumphant, If the
pax Germanica were imposed upon a
beaten world.
But that is not to me the worst. To
me the German peril does not lie 80
much in her big guns, her submarines,
her "Prussianized war machine" 1t
lies in herself, in her image Of the
world. If Germany could win even a
partial victory under her monstroua
creed Of applied materialism, illuminat-
ed as it has been by every sort Of Gym
ical crime, with its reasoned defiance
Of contract, its principle Of indispensa'
BILE severities,s its military logic, ETC.,
THAT must become the moral law OF
all the world-the jungle law! In or
der to survive we must all accept this
law of the Jungle. And Of all the
PROSTATE peoples Of the world forced
to accept the victor's new version OF
the ancient commandments proud
America would be the first. We can
not resist the fascination Of success
So the German ideal, the German
tyranny over the individual, the Ger
man morality-one rule for you and
me as individuals and another utterly
irresponsible rule when we get togeth-
er as a state-wOuld be Initiated by
rs more than the German thorough
ness in civil and military organization,

yesterday, when a sick looking
stranger appeared before him. "You
look a. bit familiar, although I'm sure

Ppm A. Dollar Bill" the stranger
weakly answered.
"Oh-pleased to recognize you, Dol
lar Bill" cordially beamed our editor,
holding out his hand. "You look a
bit weak, old friend. What's the mat
ter?'
"I'm not the same Bill used to

used to do before the war"
pretty tough" our editor reflected.
H.Have you been to see the Doctor 90
II went to see DR.. McAdoo," Az
swered Bill, "and he told me that I'll
never get my strength back until after
the war. He said I ought to gain at
least, ,25c or Soc in weight then. In
the meantime, he said, l ought to havs
a rest, and my owner ought to lsy
me aside against the day when I will
be worth more"
THAT isn't a bad idea," observed
our editor.
"I know" continued Bill, "that seme
of us Bills go for food and clothing,
no matter how weak we get. But
there are lots Of US that are going
for luxuries and things that our OWL
ers don't really need. The fast times
are killing US. 1 thought if I called
it to your attention, you might say
word for US. Doctor McAdoo said
a dose of publicity would help me-
!, Now of course I don't want people to
me in a sock or behind the clock
lase until the Huns are defeated. My
Alue will increase by investing me

" How for instance?' asked our
editor, sympathetically.
eff you take four OF US and add 15c
to US this month, making $4.15 in all
you can buy a War Savings Stamp
from Uncle Sam that will make me
worth exactly $500 cash to you on
January 1, 1923, and worth even more
when you consider how much more
$500 will buy then than now. There
dis nothing imaginary or theoretical
about it, either. We dollar Bills are
valuable only because we can buy
things people want. I am more va''
liable when / can buy more OF those
things than when can buy less OF
them. And Uncle Sam will gain while
you gain. He will have the use OF
your money when he sorely needs it
and believe me. he needs it. And J!

THE NITRATE SITUATION

Mr.. Stevenson has given out the
Following statement, relative to nj
trate, from Information just furnish
ed by the Agricultural Department:
To date 21,536 tons have been de-
livered and unloaded at Savannah.
Charleston and Wilmington, and
more than 1900 tons have been
shipped to farmers. On account of
port conditions, the Railroads have
not been able yet to move about g.
S22 tons for which shipping instruc-
tlons have been given, but will do so
very soon. The remaining 1000 tons
will be delivered to the farmers verv
soon. Two ships, carrying 10000
tons, will be discharged this week at
Mobile and Norfolk, and five addi-
tional ships, carrying 2G,5OO tons.
are on their-way to Chill for load
ing, and a sixth ship, of 1000 tons.
mas been assigned for carrying nj
Irate' making total of $4,000 tons,
either delivered or for which trans
portation has been arranged for this
country. The Department has as
surance that the remainder of the
IZO,OOo tons contracted for will
come forward as speedily as possible.
War demand for shipping has been
very great, but it is now believed that
the arrangements which have been
made will enable the Department sub
stantlally to meet all orders received
from farmers up to the date when
applications were closed, and it is
believed that, in the absence of un-
avoidable developments, all the nj
trate contracted for will be secured
and delivered. Any representations
to the contrary are said by the De-
partment to be unwarranted and mis-.
leading.
