THE IRISH POTATO

Columbia.-"Did you eat a potato
with your breakfast?"
This is the question that the Food
Administration is asking OF every per-
son in South Carolina.
Hapsburg Liebs gays that the nome
" Irish potato has cut, is cutting anu

a figure in this world war as the SUD-
marine.
In Germany, It is said, potatoes
have beea planted even between lne
ties Of railroad tracks. Potatoes have
kept the people of Germany allve,
Probably Germany would have caVea

FURTHER SAVING IN
MEAT CONSUMP TON
Meatless Days Will Not Be
Inaugurated at Present il
Economy in Eating Meat is
Practiced, Says Food Admin
instration.

Columbia.-The Food Adminisra-
IN is extremely desirous Of securing
;0nomy in the consumption Of all
kinds of meats without the reinstal-
Iation of meatless days at the present.
The seasonal decline in the volume
of animals coming to market is now
in progress and its volume will un-
doubtedly further decrease during the
next few months, as is usual, but the
probable amount of such decrease is
yet obscure, says the Food Admins
tration.
A statement given out here today.
by William Elliott, Food Administra-
tor for South Carolina. and signed by
Herbert Hoover, says:
"The necessities for shipment
abroad to our army and allies are very
large and amount to roughly 75,00O,-
900 pounds Of meat and meat prod
ucts of all kinds per week against a
pre-war normal of less than 15,00O,00O
pounds Even with these large ship
ments the allies have found it neces-
sary to reduce consumption of all
kinds of meats and put it to an average
Of about one and one-quarter pounds
per week per person in order that no
further draft may be made upon ship
ping that is now required for the
transport of our soldiers.
"Our consumption Of meats is about
three and one-quarter pounds per
week per person, and if we are to
make both ends balance during the
short marketing season, we must have
further economy.
''If the public will continue rigor-
Gus elimination Of waste and will fur
ther economize by reducing the guam
tity prepared for each meal of all
kinds Of meats and poultry, more par
ticularly beef, and will restrict their
purchases accordingly, the Food Ad-
ministration hopes that the necessary
balance can be maintained. A general
adherence to these recommendations
will avoid the inconvenience which
arises in many directions from meat
less days and will cause less interfer-
ence in the daily preparation OF food"

HIS CHANCE.

If YOU have a relative or friend
''over there says an exchange. con-
s;der these things about him:
He has twenty-nine chances CT
coming home to one chance of being
killed.
He has ninety-eight chances Of re-
covering from wound to two chances
Of dying.
He has only one chance in five
hundred of losing limb.
He will live five years longer be
cause Of physical training.
He is freer from disease in the
army than in civil life.
In other wars from ten to fifteen
men died from disease to every ten
from bullets.
In this war one man dies from
disease to every ten from bullets.
This war IS less wasteful Of life,
so far as the Allies are concerned,
than any other in history.

WHEAT SITUATION
SERIOUS PROBLEM
People Asked TO Give Up Eating
Wheat Bread Until After
Nav& Harvest

Next Harvest.
Columbia-The wheat situation is
the most serious in the food supply
of the Allied world.
This word comes from Washington
to the Food Administration at Colum'
bia. The statement continues:
"Our harvest was less than esti'
mated; needs of the Allies are greater
than were calculated; losses by sea
and by battle have been heavier than
were anticipated; less comes from the
Argentine than had been hoped; tens
er demands on shipping space restrict
ships more than ever to the shortest
haul and the tightest bulk
Until the next harvest the crisis Will
not have been passed. The call is
therefore issued that all who can End
al who will go without wheat-give
up wheat bread entirely-unt!! the
~ext harvest, as the club wc-cc2 OF
South Carolina have pledged them
selves to do; that those who do not go
on an entirely wheatless ration cut
down the consumption of wheat by at
least one-half, and that households
keep within a weekly allowance for
each person of one and one-half
pounds CT -four and all other wheat
products.

TRAVELLING BLIND TIGER.
Rural Policeman Mitchell Captured
Automobile, Two Men. One Wo-
man and "a Gallons Corn
WhiSkey.

Tugaloo. Westminster, Tribune, 2lst
Yesterday evening about twilight
Rural Policeman J. G. Mitchell, OF
Westminster, captured Ford car,
two men, one woman and twenty
four gallons of corn whiskey wlthl2
the corporate limits of town, just west
of DR.. Mitchells town property.
Mr.. Mitchell ran the party down. He
got in hot pursuit near Blackwells
school house in the Holly Springs
section, some miles above Westmln-
star and chased them to town. 1t
is North Carolina automobile as is
shown by the license tag. The par
ties are unknwon and refuse to give
their right names. Mr.. Mitchell says
the men have given several different
names, which are supposed to be as
sumed names. The woman has ab-
solutely refused or declined to give
her name. All were lodged in jail
at Walhalla last night.
Mr. Mitchell had rather an exciting
chase after the men and woman, but
he never lost sight of them and felt
reasonably sure he would eventually
overtake and capture them. There
was large copper tank, two cases OF
fruit jars and srit case in the car
in which was concealed the whiskey
The men claimed they were on their
way to the town of Chappells. All
tho three occu-a~ts Of the car arr
white.
Who They Are.
Walha1la Courier.
Mr.. Mitchell is a little dubious as
to who he had in custody. the names
given sounding a bit fictitious. The
three names given are Ed. Jones. OF
.Chapnells. S. c.: Sam Corn, Of Dill
lard. n. c., and Edna Jones, of Chap
pells. The parties were in commu-
nication with parties at Chappeiis
during Tuesday, secured legal repre-
sentatives here an6 made bond for
their release. Some of the party
were very anXioTG that their affair
should not bAcome known in Wal
halla. where. it seems. there are rel
atives.
