Consider These Facts:
Toynbee, the British historian in his "Civilization On Trial"
says: "Out of 21 civilizations preceding this one, 19 have been de
stroyed by a mixture of atheism, materialism, socialism, and alco
holism." Then he added, "It looks now as if the No. 1 enemy of
the American way of life is drunkenness. If the American people
continue the present increase of drunkenness, nothing can save you|
from destruction. History is altogether against you."
Alcoholics started off as moderate drinkers. They did not mean
to become alcoholics, they just knew they could "take it or leave
it." But more than 5,000,000 have found themselves "taking it"
rather than "leaving it." Keep this in mind. — Mrs. Annie Mary
Rawlings in Sandersville Progress.

Farmers who try to predict
whether swine erysipelas will be
a problem on their farms this
year are engaging in a dangerous
game.
For, swine erysipelas is prob
ably the most unpredictable hog
disease known in this country.
Since the swine erysipelas or
ganism is rather widespread in
the soil and is very resistant, and
because apparently-recovered ani
mals may remain carriers and
keep the soil infected, the disease
is often there and can break out
at any time, causing severe losses.
Swine erysipelas is common to
all swine growing area. It usually
results in great economic losses
to the producer, through stunting
and unthriftiness.
Enlarged joints are a symptom
in chronic erysipelas. The disease
often may also resemble hog
cholera.
There are several forms of ery
sipelas. The most noticeable
symptoms occur in the acute form
and include light appetite, scours,
stiff or painful gait and resent
ment at being disturbed. Symp
toms may be overlooked easily in
the mild form, but in chronic
erysipelas the organisms localize
in joints and cause swelling or
arthritis.
One of the confusing factors in
swine erysipelas is that, in the
acute form, it may resemble hog
cholera or salmonella infection.
For this reason it is important to
call a veterinarian for a diagnosis
when any symptoms such as these
show up. To determine the exact
disease is always of first impor
tance.
What are the best ways to fight
swine erysipelas? Here are sev
eral that are recommended by
authorities: Quarantine replace
ment stock. Provide pigs with
well-balanced rations and plenty
of clean, fresh drinking water.
Have a veterinarian routinely vac
cinate against the disease and
follow his advice about disease
control measures. Last but not
least. raise animals according to
good husbandry practices in hous
ing, condition of lots, pastures and
management.
"The man who's waiting for
something to turn up might
start with his shirt sleeves."

Recently, the billionth dollar was repaid to REA
against the 3^ billion dollars loaned to these local
businesses. Another half-billion dollars has been
paid by the electric co-ops as interest on their
loans. In Georgia this year, ad valorem property
taxes are being assessed against co-op property.
In fact, the electric co-ops pay all taxes required
by law.
With local interest and progress ever in mind,
the Rural Electrics strive constantly to make
their communities a better place in which to live
