Secrecy Surrounds
Information
Army
Fort Jaskaeo, S. C. ? Parents,
wives and sweethearts who give out
information as to the location and
limit of soldiers in the nation's
military forces may be endangering
the very lives of their loved ones,
post officials here have warned.
The urgency for the "folks back
home" to keep secret all information
regarding United States troops is
just as important as for members of
the military personnel. Although in
formation as to strength, composi
tion, location and movement of
troops may at times seem inconse
quential. it may be of great value to
enemies of the United States. Any
information as to routes, schedule
and destination of troop movements
may result in sabotage and the loss
of lives of the troop6 concerned at a
time when the nation is greatly in
need of its fighting manpower.
Information as to location and ac
tivities of troops often is contained
in letters written to parents, wives
and sweethearts by the men of the
fighting front and in army ramns
In some instances, unthinking par
Mgnts hare even given these letters to
newspapers for publication which
makes them an open book of very
valuable information to the enemy.
At this stage of the war, military
leaders point out that enemies of our
country are seeking to gain knowl
edge of the location, strength and ac
tivities of every military organiza
tion in the United States.
The mere statement of a member
of the family of an officer or enlist
ed man that he is at a certain place,
or that he is going to such a place,
may cost him his life,

Seed Colleetioiis
(lost Around $5.50
A garden on every farm has been
proclaimed a patriotic and economic
"must" in the National war effort.
To this end. a "Victory Garden"
campaign is being organized
throughout North Carolina and the
rest of the nation.
As an important part of the "Vic
tory Garden" campaign, the exten
sion horticulturists at N. C State
College, have made up a list of gar
den seeds needed to food a family of
five for a full year. Seed dealers in
every part of the State have agreed
to offer these seed collections in
special packages, at a reduced rate
when bought all at the same time.
H. R Niswonger, one of the horti
culturists, says the prices of the gar
den seed collections range from $5.35
to $6.50. as quoted by dealers. The
packages contain about 26 pounds
of garden seed, which, if planted cor
rectly and cultivated properly, will
furnish an abundant supply of fresh
vegetables for a farm family of five,
with a surplus for canning and stor
age.
"If a farmer buys this special gar
den seed package, he will save con
siderable money," Niswonger declar
ed. "A comparison of prices quoted
by dealers for the 26-pound collec
tion, with seed catalogues listing the
various seeds in separate packages,
shows that the seed would cost from
$2.65 to $12 more when bought at
intervals during the garden plant
ing season."
The State College leaders said that
county farm and home agents have
information on the source of these
special garden seed collections.
