"FEED YOURSELF AND
aLIVE AT HOME"

Columbia, May IA gigantic
Feed Yourself and Live at Home"
movement is being launched among
the farmers of the cotton belt 1t Is
an outgrowth of the cotton acreage
reduction campaign, sort OF natural
sequence as it were.
A statement issued by the South
Carolina Cotton association today
says that number of counties in
several sections of the cotton belt
have been thoroughly organized for
the movement. Petitions have been
circulated among the farmers, the
signature to which constitutes a.
pledge solemnly binding themselves
70 discontinue sending orders to the
West for grain, hay and foodstuffs at
ter this season. The petition binds
each signer to use every effort to
discourage this practice and states
that any citizen sending such orders
will be considered in bad repute and
subject to- the condemnation Of his
neighbors.
The South Carolina Cotton associa-
ton plans to launch campaign in
South Carolina along these lines. In
explanation of its intentions Chair
man Wannamaker today said: :
There is no reason why the South
erp farmer should raise cotton and
sell 1t for a small profit, if indeed
,he gets that. and then turn around
and send all he has made out West
20. food strffs. This year, we are
selling our cottoan at price far oe-
low the cost Of production and have
paid the western farmer price for his
gram far above the cost of production.
We can grow our own foodstuffs and
keep all of the profit we make from
cas.cn in the. South. Only in this
way can our section ever become
prosperous =:
THE South Carolina Cotton associa-
ton is. asking the chairman in each
county to have. petitions circulated
among the farmers in each county
asking them to agree not to order
any grain, hay cr foodstuffs from out
West next year If they sign this
it will mean that the South will lire
at home and feed itself. It will then
be able to keep it's profit on cotton
and become as prosperous as the 9th.

United States entering the war; anu
he seemed to, have no censure TOR
his acts. 1t was simply a business
proposition. It had never occurred
to him that we, might have mad othe"
reasons. nor did 1 attempt to inform
him of those reasons.
Our role here in the camp IS rather
peculiar one-we have nothing to
do with the actual handling of the
prisoners in the camp or the treat
ment OF the sick IN the hospitals =
that is done by the German officers
in charge. Our role is largely that
of advisor and supervisor-we are ":.o
urge and help in the institution Of al
sanitary measures beneficial to the
prisoners"
Quite frequently we are called on
TO act as mediators between the Ger.
mans and the Russians.
There is no doubt that the food sit
uation throughout Germany has be-
come a serious pToposition-natural-
" this situation affects the prisoners.
The Germans seem to be wiling to
dc what they can. but due to the
scarcity of food and the charotic con-
dition of things in general through
out the country, the best they can do
is hardly sufficient. Here is perhaps.
where our mission puts IN its best
licks. We see to it that the Germans
provide the regular prisoner ration.
and then we supplement this vita
contributions from the Red Cross.
By offering these gifts to the men az
rewards for keeping barracks and
camp in sanitary condition we ac-
complish two objects--a we'll fed
Russian makes "a contented being and
a sanitary camp lowers the death
rate. The sanitary condition. of this
camp and the general contentment o.
its inmates hare increased, 50 per
cent since the arrival Of the Ameri-
cans. don't know how the Amer
cans have been received at othe'
camps, but here the Germans in COM
mand have given hearty cooperation,
and where possible have put into es-
feet every Recommendation made.
I have been labeled tuberculosis
specialist" 1t IS my special duty. in
conjunction with the German doctors
here in camp to find out: "a-All tu-
bercular cases IN camp. b-First
stage pulmonary cases. c-All cases
OF tuberculosis Of whatever nature
who are able to travel" The commis-'
sion hopes to persuade the Germans
to set aside a camp for tuberculosis
patients-when that is accomplished
all cases who are able to travel will
be transferred to that camp.
Though Sagan IS only 120 miles
from Berlin we feel like we are cut

New-York tribune., 1919-11-23

Council of Agriculture has summoned
representatives from four Of the
provinces to attend a conference to
coordinate efforts to elect members to
the Federal House. One important
suggestion being made is that the
present Great Lakes shipping should
be under the Dominion Railway Com
MISSION. Another matter that is TO be
discussed at the conference is by in
timation to tell the present govern
ment what should be done to insure
an eihclent and vigorous administers
ton OF the Grand Trunk and Grand
Trunk Pacific railways.
In Canada the lieutenant governors
are figureheads rather than digntaries
with real power, as is the state Of
the various governors in states across
the line; yet eighteen states with
4o'Vo0'oo0 of population have spent
less III the construction of all their
governors residences than the Province
Of Ontario. with its population of
about 100000, and in eighteen other
states Americans do not provide their
governors with residences.

Farmers Supporting 1t
Along all lines--with the possible
exception Of public ownership of rail.
ways--this Farmers platform is far
in advance of present political plat
forma, and significant feature is that
IT Is being supported generally by
farmers who are determined to elect
men who will put these reforms or
the statute books. In Ontario, as i,
the West, these resolutions adopted by
the Council of Agriculture are sup
ported and constitute not only a plat
form to be carried out to the lette,
should farmers be elected, but one tha
to large extent has the support o1
the labor element in Canada.
The present administration has two
or three years to run, and in time
public opinion may change. At pres
ent, however, indications point te
more new regimes in various provin-
cial administra tions; and that wher
a Dominion contest is announced
there will be three cornered contests
(probably Farmers party. Liberal and
either Conservative or Unionist) with
those representing agricultural in
terests backing the one candidate, q.
they did lately in Canada's premier
province.
Representatives Summoned
