SENATOR HUBRIS
SPEAKS TO CROWDED
COURT HOUSE
School Children, Ladies of
the Town and Men from All
Over County Listen Atten
tively to Address by Senior
Senator.
Senator William J. Harris spoke
in Jefferson county court house
Monday morning. The high school
students and teachers, many ladies
of the town and men from all parts
of the county were present to hear
end applaud the address of the
senior senator of Georgia.
Senator Harris spoke of his record
in the senate, not the things that
he hoped to do but the things that
were already accomplished facts. His
talk did not deal with ’’things remote
from use. obscure and subtle”, but
dealth with the problems that be
fore us lie in daily life “thus proving
that his is the prime wisdom. He
did not revel in hot air nor make
impossible pledges relating to
foreign affairs. The soldier boys
who remember his kindness to them
while in the service know that he
works in deeds not in words. Just
hack from France, he told of his
visit to American cemeteries on
French soil and of the scrupolous
care these receive. He mentioned
briefly liis trip to Austria and the
fact that he witnessed the function
ing of the peace conference.
The greater part of the address
bore on the problems of the Georgia
farmer and the remodics that are
being suggested. Senator Harris
works with the Farmer Bloc and has
been able to do much for the peo
ple of this section. Asa result of the
measures sponsored by him Georgia
has more experiment stations than
any state in the union. The only
experiment station in the United
States for the eradication of the
peach pest is in Georgia. The second
e? periment station against pecan
pests is in this state. He has secured
an appropriation of ten thousand
dollars to experiment in Georgia
against syrup fermentation, Aug
ustat has been made the site of
one of five hospitals in the United
States provided for by the Langly
bill, to aid the farmers he has had
potash put on the free tariff list.
Senator Harris told of his work
on the Muscle Shoals proposition,
beleving it to be the biggest piece
of legislation to aid farmers of this
time, as much will prividc for cheap
er fertilizer. He has waged war
against the Dygr bill (anti lynching
bill,) and will continue to do so
until ijts ultimate defeat. He is op
posed to debt cancellation and help
ed defeat the appointment of Abrani
Lincoln Johnson, the congressional
record will show’, stated the sena
tor, that every vote cast by him was
in favor of the people of Georgia.
The senator has a splendid at
tendance record in the senate and is
recognized for his constant and sin
cere work, both by the members of
his own party and the republican
! arty.

The purpose of the Poultry show
to be held Nov. 24th and 25th is to
arouse more interest in the poultry
work of the county. Your exhibit
will not only help out in this enter
prise, but will be an advertisement
to your poultry business. A good
poultry show this fall will mean
much for the poultry business of
the country during the remainder
of the year, and the interest cre
ated will call for repeated shows
and activity along other important
lines of the poultry Industry.
We are yet far behind in the
poultry business. Georgia consumes
$40,000,000 worth of poultry and
poultry products each year, blit she
produces only one-half of that
amount—or $20,000,000 worth.
The city of Macon, according to
the Chamber of Comerce buys $4,000
wort hof poultry each day.
Most of the time last year a doz
en eggs were worth as much as a
bushel of corn. The average rural
county in Georgia imports about
$15,000 worth of poultry and eggs
each year.
Haising poultry offers a sane en
terprise to every farmer and to
those also who live in small towns.
Only a small capital is required to
start; the turn-over is quick and
there is a market open 365 days a
year.
At our poultry show there will
he an educational poultry exhibit by
Ihc State College of Agriculture, and
experts from the stale poultry de
partment will do the judging.
Please let us know at once the
number and kinds of exhibits you
will make so that cooping arrange

CANCER WEEK IN AMERICA
Dr. Lewis Tells of Early Stages of Cancer.
This week, November 12 to Nov
ember 18th, has been set aside by
the American Medical Association
for special work through tile cancer
commission and the American So
ciety for the Control of Cancer.
Committees toward the educatioin of
tK* people in tile recognition of the
ej'ly stages of cancer have been ap
pointed ail over the United States.
Dr. John 11. Lewis, of Louisville,
was requested by the state; chair
itiuit to head a commitee for Jef
ferson county. At the request of
liit; News and Farmer, Dr. Lewis
consented to write the following
letter which we publish.
Editor News and Farmer:
From ancient times—etc.
From ancient times the medical
profession inherited and still re
tains the high ideals and unselfish
devotion to fellownian. This ideal
ism is the expressed purpose to re
lieve suffering humanity and pro
long life. Modern medicine is the
accomplishment of the medical pro
fession, sanitarians and scientists.
An effort towards this ideal is be
ing made by educating and enlight
ening tlie people. By educating the
public we have gained this co-opera
tion. The appication of known and
tried reliable means of prevention
has greatly lowered the death rale
of tuberculois of the lungs about
50 percent- Typhoid fever can lie
prevented we have by means of
vaccination, and sanitation within
reach the possibility of well night
eradicating this disease. So it is
with yellow fever, diptheria, malaria,
smallpox, typhufs fever, cholera and
pubonis plague, and other diseases
which have killed thousands of peo
ple, We have the facts that if pro
perly carried out the world can well
night be rid of these diseases.
Through the efforts of various socie
ties by educating the public our in
fant morality is greatly reduced. All
of this has been accomplished by
the increasing efforts of physicians
public health officers and public
health association workers, the
educating of the public to rational
application of reliable methods of
disease prevention. By using the
scientific means of treatment. To
day, and especially this week the
physicians are fighting a dreadful
plague, cancer. Under the leadership
of The American Society for Control
of Cancer, the medical profession
has named and set apart November
12th to November 18th exclusive to
be a nation wide week known as
Cancer Week. This is an attempt
to educate the mass of people to
recognize early symptoms of cancer,
and I furnish you herewith the vita)
facts about cancer as written by the
American Society for Cancer Control
and wailed to me.
During the great war th& United
■States" lost about' $6,000 soldiers.
During the same two years 180,-
000 people died of cancer in this
country. Cancer is now killing one
out of every ten persons over 40
years of age.
Many of these deaths are pre
ventable, since cancer is frequently
curable, if recognized and properly
treated in its early stages.
Cancer begins as a small local
growth, which can often be entirely
removed by competent surgical
tieatment or in certain external
forms by using radium, X-ray or
other methods.
Cancer is not a constitutional or
blood disease, there should be no
thought of disease or of hereditary
taint about it.
Cancer is not a communicable dis
ease, its is not possible to transmit
ted cancer from one who has it to
another free of it. Cancer is not
inherited. It is not certain even
that a tendency to the disease is
inherited. Cancer is so frequently
that simply by the laws of chance
there may be many cases in some
families and this gives rise to much
needless worry about inheriting the
disease.
The beginning of cancer is usual
ly painless, for this reason its
insidious onset is frequently over
looked, and is too easily neglected.
Other danger signals must be reco
gnized and competent medical advice
obtained at once.
Every persisting lump in the
breast is a warning sign. All such
lumps are by no means cancer but
cien innocent of the breast may
develop into cancer if neglected, In
women continued unusual discharge
oi bleeding requires the immediate
advice of a competent doctor. The
normal changlie of life is not ac
companied by increasing flowing
which is always suspicious. The re
turn of flowing after it has once
stopped should also be considered
suspicious. In men any reddish color
in the urine is very suspicious of
cancer in the bladder or kidney,
though it is also seen sometimes
with stone of the bladder or kidney.
Do not expect the doctor to tell you
what the matter is without making a
careful physicial examination.
Any sore that does not heal parti
cularly about the mouth lips, or
tongue, is a danger signal. Picking
and irrating such sores, cracks,
ulcerations, etc., or treating these
skin condition by home remedies,
parts, poultices, caustic, etc., is
playing with fire. Warty growth,
moles, or other birthmarks especial
ly those subject to constant irrita
tion should he attended to im
mediately if they change in color
or appearance, or start to grow.
Avoidance of chronic irritation and
removal of just such seemingly un
significant danger spots may prevent
cancer.
Persistant indigestion in middle
life, with loss of weight and change
of color, or with pain, vomiting, or

Kadium is a useful and promising

STUBS OPTUS
Lavenworth, Kan. Nov. 14—Joe
Martinez, Mexican murder convict,
who shortly before noon today fatal
ly stabbed A ,H. Leonard, captain
of the guards at the federal peni
tentiary here and knifed six other
guards, was said tonight to he in
a serious condition.
Martinez-* was captured by guards
after he had been shot and pelted
with coal in the coal bunker where
lie hid after the stabbing. Hospital
authorities state lie has a fractured
skull and may not live.
.Martinez fashioned the knife from
a piece of steel, according to Ward
en W. I. Biddle. Leon lard was look
ed upon the prison as a fearless
guard. He is survived by a wife and
three children.
After honors had been taken to
the barber shop this morning, one
of them warned William Doidge, a
guard, that Martinez was carrying
a knife. Doidge demanded the knife.
Martinez replied liy stabbing him
Joseph Durkin, another guard, ap
proached and attempted to disarm
the apparently crazed man. Martinez
stabbed him.
Captain Leonard then rushed in
and tried to obtain the knife. Marti
nez stabbed him in the left side,
the blade entering the heart. Captain
Leonard slaggerevt a few <eet and
fell. ‘ e —
By this time, other guards had
been attracted to the scene. Martinez
was stabbing right and left. He knif
ed Guards Martin Lengyel, George
Logan, M. F. Durtkel and James
Galvin. The last two named were
only slightly wounded. The condi
tion of the others while serious, is
£ot thought critical.
MEDICAL MEN
DISCUSS MALARIA
Malaria will be the chief subject
of discussion at the next meeting
of the Southern Medical Association
which will be held at Chattanooga,
Tennessee. November 13-16, 1922. As
a part of the Southern Medical As
sociation meeting the National
Malaria Committee will hold its an
nual meeting on November 13th.
On the next three days there will
be held a conference of malaria
field workers, where the problems in
malaria control encountered during
the past season's work will be dis
cussed and plans laid for next year’s
work. All of the state health officers
of the south, many prominent physi
cians and sanitary engineers, who
are interested in nia!iii and its
control, will be present at these meet
ings and discuss the latest advances
made in controlling disease
which is reckoned the mCm serious
of all health problems in the south.
In addition to these meetings a
malaria exhibit will he displayed
during the entire week. This exhi
bit will give a simple but vivid pic
ture of-malaria ami its effects upon
flic health and welfare of the south.
How malaria is transmitted by the
mosquito, how malaria has interfered
with the agricultural and economic
development of the south, how ma
laria can he controlled by educa
tion, by improving the standard of
living, by destroying mosquitoes and
their breeding places, by fish (top
minnows which feed on mosquito
wigglers), by taking enough o ine
to actually cure instead of V ely
enough to temporarily relive chills
and fever, by proper screening, and
by other measures which may he
satisfactorily employed under pecu
liar local conditions.
The keen interest which is being
shown by health officials, leading
physicians and sanitary engineers
of the south in the study of malaria
fever is merely an expression of
their pudgement based on experience
that the control of this disease is of
more importance to the welfare of
the people of the south at the
present time than is the etntrol of
any other preventable disease. They
also feel that in the past the serious
ness ot malaria to the south has
not been properly appreciated. For
these reasons a concerted effort is
now being made by public health
workers to rid the south of this
menance to its prosperity. Practi
cally every state health officer in
the south has within the last few
years secured special appropriations
for malaria study and control, and
with the co-operation of the United
States Public Health Service and
the International Health Hoard there
is being actively conducted a well
organized campaign for malaria
control in practically every south
ern state.

OUTLINE OF SPEECH
Rome, Nov. 14.—Premier Mussoli
ni gave the council of ministers to
day a broad outline of the speech
which he will deliver when the
chamber reconvenes Thursday.
“The present parliament may last
two days or two years; the whole
matter rests with itself” the premier
told his colleagues. Normally the
chamber lasts two or more years.
Mussolini’s reference to “two days’
is interpreted on all sides as mean
ing dissolution should the chamber
vote against the present government.
The financial and economic resto
ration of Italy, a point on which the
premier dwelt emphatically as up
permost in his mind, could not be
carried out, he declared, with the
chamber divided into little groups.
Concerning Italy’s foreign policy,
Mussolini was of the opinion that
Italy should “do nothing for noth
ing.” He was prepared to help
along ip. every way the general good,
but Italy itself must not be over
looked, and should share in the re
turns.
The Italian premier will go to
Lausane, not as a member of the
Italian delegation, buth simply to
meet the British and French pre
miers and discuss the general situa
tion and examine the territorial, re
parations and raw materials ques
tions.
Relative to the full powers which
Mussolini will ask the chamber to
grant him for the execution of bu
reaucratic reforms and reorganiza
tion of the fiscal position of the
country, the premier will explain in
the chamber that this is not intend
ed as a slight to parliament but sim
ply that he wants blanket authority
to proceed with plans and reforms,
which otherwise would have to be
voted piecemeal and would require
years to complete, and perhaps
would never be accomplished.
The premier desires such full
powers until December 31, 1923, he
will then undertake to come before
the chamber in March, 1924, and lay
before it what has been done.
Governors Conference
Postponed To Future
Atlanta, Nov. 14.—The conference
of governors of six southern states—
Alabama, Louisiana, Missippi, Flori
da Georgia and Tennessee—called by
Gov. Thomas E. Kilby of Alabama,
has been postponed until a future
date. Governor Kilby asked that
the governors of these states attend
a conference in Montgomery, to he
held tomorrow, for the purpose of
canvassing the coal distribution sit
uation in thjs section, with a view
to arriving at some method of re
lieving the shortage of freight cars
for movement of coal from the
mines. In his letter to Governor
Hardwick tic says he was unable to
get favorable response from the gov
ernors invited, and for that reason
decided to postpone the meeting.
Col. John T. Boifeuillet, of the
Georgia Public Service Commission
had been delegated to represent
Governor Hardwick,
TWO INJURED WHEN
CABLE SCALPS AUTO
■
Mrs. J. P. Fosv'z'/ f Wrens,
Sustains Ser it Eye-
Wound, Rev. J. J. Grttu
Has Broken Arm, \
Rev. J J. Gillibeau, of Wrens, and
Mrs. J. P. Foss, of the same place,
received seroius injuries last week
when the car driven by Mr. Gilli
beau ran into a cable stretched
across the road near the railroad
station at Keyesvillc.
Mr. Gillibeau's injuries consist of
a broken arm and lacerated bands.
Mrs. Foss received a laceration of
the eye, which may necessitate its
removal.
According to witnesses who saw
the car crash into the cable, which
was being used to “snake” logs on
to flat cars at the station, there was
no warning given nor was there
anyone to warn autoists of it being
there. When the car approached
the crossing the driver turned his 1
head to look up the tracks to sec
if a train was approaching thereby
failing to see the cable across the
road with the result that he. ran
head-on into it. Tile cable struck
the windshield of the car. scatter
ing a shower of glass all over the
occupants, which resulted in the in
jury to Rev. Gillibeau and Mrs. Foss.
They were treated at Keyesvillc
by Dr. Smith, and later removed to
the University Hospital for further
medical attention.
