Prescribe in Emergency Cases.

ashington--Methods by which
Intoxicating liquors may be obtained
| for medicinal purposes and detailed
regulations governing their sale were
made public tonight by the bureau of
internal revenue. Announcement al
so was made that the bureau had
compiled system of permits pro-
viding definite and fixed channel
through which all intoxicating liquors
must move by which hereafter the
government will know the location of
every gallon of distilled liquor within
the nations boundaries, except that
stored in private homes.
In setting forth the ways in which
liquor may be procured, Commission
er Roper took occasion to issue a
warning against profiteering in it's
sale.
MUST NOT OVERCHARGE.
The commissioner declared that ex-
orbitant charges for liquor for med
icinal purposes certainly places the
dispenser thereof in the class with
profiteers and they will be iyvesti-
gated"
Mr.. Roper also announced that all
liquor seized under federal law prior
to last October %, unless claimed un-
der the sixty-day ruling, would be
sold by order Of the court under the
jurisdiction of which it is held.
It must be sold, however, To a
holder of a permit to use it whether
for medicinal or non-beverage pur-
poses.
Both the physician who prescribes
and the pharmacist who sells liquor,
the regulations provide, must have a
permit, which may be obtained from
the federal prohibition director.
MUST HAVE PERMIT.
Other details of the method by
which liquor for medicinal purposes
may be purchased follow:
Amy physician duly licensed to prac-
tice medicine and actively engaged in
the practice of such profession may
obtain permit to prescribe intoXi-
eating liquor and may then issue pre-
scriptions for distilled spirits, wines
or certain alcoholic medicinal pur-
poses for persons upon whom he is
in attendance in cases where he be-
lieves that the use of liquor as a
medicine is necessary. In no case
may spirituous liquor be prescribed
by one of more physicians in excess
of one pint for the same person with

Trotter Bible Class of First Baptist
Church entertained the Mems Bible
Class of that church at banquet in
the Masonic building. A most elab-
crate dinner was served. The menu
consisting of several courses, includ-
ing, oysters, turkey. salads and desert
of delicious home made cake, cream,
etc.
Mrs. H. J. Ray mad charge of ar
arrangements and nothing could have
been added to make the table or serv-
Gle more elegant.
The opening address of the eve
ming was made by Mrs. c. E. Lock
ett, President of the ladies' class, who
in well chosen words and in most
eloquent and beautiful way welcomed
the guests of the occasion and spoke
of the high aim of her class. Mr.. c.
F. Woodson, President of the mems
class in appropriate words responded
on behalf of his class. Short talks
were made by Mrs. J. G. Morgan and
Pastor Stanley, teachers of the re-
spective classes. Toasts were given
on more or less business subjects by
the following speakers:
Mrs. H. J. Ray, Mrs. P. G. Pope,
Mrs. T. B. Grantham, Supt. c. c..
White, Hon. j. H Brown, Prof. Nc
Kibben, DR.. P. G. Pope, Messrs. j..
J. Hardy, C. A. Perry, W. H. Kirk,

spoke on s'The Distinctive Features
of The Bible as Text Book" With
his deep mellow voice, clear logic and
attractive manner carried his hearers
with him into the considerations of
some of the proposed things of the
one great Book.
The evening was most wholesome
one and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
The guests all left feeling that
wards were inadequate to express
their high esteem for this the largest
Bible class in Grenada, and their ap-
probation for the generosity that
provided this splendid occasion which
stands as a bright spot in the expert
ence of every one present.

Food and Other Crop Production.

| According to statisJics compiiy
ed by the Manufacturers Record,
there was a decrease last year in the
combined output of corn, wheat and
oats of 236,0OO,0e0 bushels in the
country outside of the Southern
States, while in the South these
grains showed an increased production
| of 335, 100000 bushels. AS result
of this the South made a greater per-
centage of increase in the total value
of agricultural products than the rest
of the country.
| The aggregate value of all South
ern crops in 1919 was S7,022, 2,00O,-
900, as compared with $7,76S, 900, 900
for the rest of the country. Thus the
South last year produced "A percent
of the entire crop calues of the coun-
try. Themost striking fact in con-
nection with this is that the total
cotton value, seed included, was only
little more than $4,000, 900, 900,
leaving nearly $4,000, 100000 as the
value of the South's diversified crops.
Counting the South's livestock pro-
! ductiOn at about the same percentage
as ruled last year would give TO this
section S3,OO0,0 100000 as the value
of its livestock output, or total
of all farm products of S10,00O,O0O-
OOO This is S300,O00,000 in excess
! of the aggregate value of all farm
products of the United States as late
as 1915. which was the highest that
had ever been reached up TO that
time. and is just little less than
one-half of the total value of the
entire country of all farm products
in 1918.
| These stupendous figures give some
| indication of the amazing advance in
diversified farming and in the agri-
cultural wealth of the South.
The value of the South's crop LII
1919, the increase being largely made
up by the gain in it's grain output,
was nearly 81 900 more than
in 1918, while in the rest of the
country the gain was only $529 $780,
600. The South's increase in crop
values was 19 per cent, and IN the
rest of the country it was only e per
cent.
Comparing the crop values in 1919
over the average for the five years,
I1913-1917, the South shows gain OF
S3,6O3, 900, 900, which is equal to LOB
per cent, while the rest OF the coun.
try for the same time had a gain OF
1874, 900, or 76 per cent.
In connection with the food sup
DIV of the country, it is fact of sig
nificant Importance that the grain
production of the entire country out
side of the South last year showed a
decline of 236, 100000 bushels, in con-
trast with the gain in the South of
335, 500, 900 bushels. If it had not
been for this remarkable increase in
the South we would now have very
much higher prices for foodstuffs and
feedstuffs .of all kinds.
The decrease in the United States

| of 25 per cent, or 100000 acres,
and similar percentage of decrease
| in rye acreage are among the most
significant signs Of the times, show
