McKinney stated in an interview in Sun day’s BAfiner-Hcrald a joint meeting of all organisa tions concerned will be called this week to consider this step. By all means this should be done. The bill | must be advertised thirty days and the legislature ’ will be in seston only fifty days. 1 The.movement to copibine the two boards is time ly and wise, as The Banner-Herald has pointed out more than once. Not only will the city and county cave money but what is v\stly of more importance both will he given better health protection. Dr. McKinney’s outline of his plan indicates the bill as tentatively drawn up is just what we need. In fact, it is understood experts in health matters so regard it. Clarke ^county and Athens should have taken such a step long ago. However, it is too late to cry over spilt milk. *Much human misery will be raved in the future if this action is taken and wc should not hesitate in acting, at once. In a matter of this kind all personal considerations should be thrown into the discard and action be dic tated only by the public welfare. Dr. McKinney’s plan will give the county the,service of two more peo ple in health work than it now has and the city will be given the full time of one more person. In addi tion to that.the sanitary corps will be operated as a separate organization and its chief can devote his en tire instead of part time to the work of that depart ment which is sorely needed. The text of the bill as outlined by Dr. J. C. McKm- ney, president of the city board, appears to be thor ough and’complete and in its passage by the legisla ture it would meet with the needs of the city and county^ * This bill, however, should be carefully considered by the membera of the two boards, the iqayor and ■ couhcil and- commissioners and a bill should be draft ed fully setting forth the powers of the board, should be explicit and comprehensive in order that no tech nicalities could arise in the future. f\ is important that the re-organization be done right and with a viet* of serving the public and protecting in every detail the health of the community. Let us Unite the boards and make Athens and Clarke county the cleanest, most sanitary and healthy community in the state. PITIFUL PASTURES The other morning a double horse wagon was load ing hay—doubtless Western hay—from a railrond platform of a small Georgia town along the Georgia Railroad not far from Athens. And yet in this immediate territory as experiments undertaken by the Central Railway prbve, pastures can be developed at slight cost that will fatten a 1000-pound steer to tho acre and which exceed in richness and in feeding value the famed pastures of the middle west Athens forming territory is mak ing rapid progress with the ‘‘Cow, Hog and Hen” slogan, but it is neglecting an opportunity in not de veloping adequate pastures. It is pitiful to see the rapidly increasing herds of cows In this territory picking a.scant and meagre living on bare postures, when a mixture of Carpet grass, Dallas grass and Icapedeza, sawn in February, on moist lowlands, will provide a rich,’luscious and tank pasture for some 8 to 9 months in the year. Harlem, Ga., held a cattle sale the other day and disported of romc 76 head of fine pure-bred cattle :it good figures. Tt is pitiful to think of whatsis go ing to ha»qcn tothese cattle unless their new owners provide thorn with the proper pastures. The back bone of th$*Turner county plan is the adequate pas ture. With innumerable small streams and small valleys, breaking up the land in this section, we are particularly favored for. the making’of rich perma nent pastures. To neglect to do this pn every farm is to nttompt to build without a proper foundation. One cannot make a success of the “Cow, Hog and Heh” program without rich pastures. Better write to Mr. Winburn, president of the Cen tral of Georgia Railway, and -get their booklet on “Permanent Pastures.”. It will open your eyes to what can be done in this section. And best of all. If you are on the line of the Central that road will rend one of its agents to see you and talk over the matter, perhaps maybe bear part of the expense in their scheme: of demonstration work.. Doubtless the Agri cultural Departments of the other roads will be glad to do the same in their campaign to help their ter ritories torn safe and sane and profitable method of combatting the boll weevil. \ WHO GROWS THE WORLD’S COTTON 7 A: great many people think the South does, but tljo South only grows a'papt;-pf the world’s cotton—some 66 per cent for the year 1922 and only 63 per cent •for the year 1921. In 1915 and 1916 the United States or practically speaking, the South only pro duced 60 per cent of the world’s cotton and both crops in this counf.-y were over 11 million bales. In 1921 with a world production of cotton of 14, 741,000 bales, this country produced 7,954,000 bales, or a little over 63 per cent. India produced 3,360,000 bales. Egypt 837,000 bales, China 1,176,-’ 00(h Brazil 612,000 bales, all other countries 803,- 000 bales. In 1922, out of a total world crop of 17,664,000 this country produced 9,964,000 bales, or 56 per cent. Oth<*r producing countries were India ,3,760,- . 000 hales.
