Pigs and Shoats Between the 20th and 25th, we will have another load of choice Tennessee Pigs and Shoats. We had fully decided some time ago to handle but one load tms season, but so many have been here insisting that we get one more load that we have changed our minds and will handle only one more load this season. These shoats all have to be in oculated, which adds a little more expense, but the risk is no more than on native stock. Don’t depend on us for boxes, for we haven’t so much as a weighing box. Will have just a few fat hogs. W. H. & J. F. SHE ATS WINDER, GEORGIA WHEAT SHOWED SPIRIT OF U. S. / * Sacrifice to Ensure Allied Loal Greatest Single Food Achievement. SUFFICIENT SUPPLY NOW. All the Nations Will Be Able to Re turn to Their Normal Sup ply of White Bread. Overshadowing all other accomplish ments of the American people under the leadership of Food Administration Is the history of wheat exports In the past sixteen months. Our wheat ex port program proved conclusively to the world that America was In this war from start to finish and willing to .make any sacrifice that will hasten victory or maintain the health and strength of people overseas, upon whom rested the heaviest weight of lour war. Now that pressure on ocean tonnage Is eased by the stopping of large move ments of troops to Europe, we may re lax our efforts to save wheat. The ac cumulated surplus In Australia, Argen tine and other hitherto Inaccessible markets will become available, and probably no more then our normal sur plus will have to leave this country. We In America and the nations which have won the world for freedom will be ennbled to eat their normal wheat loaf at the common table of the peo ples of democracy. We entered the past crop year with a wheat supply which gnve us only 20,000,000 bushels available for ex port. When the crop yeur ended, we lhad sent 141,000,000 bushels of wheat ito Europe. The American people had saved out of their normal consumption (121,000,000 bushels. A survey of export figure;-' shows ,that the conservation of flour brought '■about by the wheatless meals, wheat less days, substitution In our kitchens and bakeries, enabled us to send to lour armies and the allies 33,000,000 {barrels of white flour —wheat figured as flour. Had we exported only our (visible surplus, we would have been able to ship less than 4,f>00,000 barrels. Before the Ist of December our sur iplus hnd gone overseas, and an addi tional 36,(100,000 bushels had been en from the stock reserved for hoiM consumption and added to the eurpM already shipped to the allies. It ed hardly possible tlmt we could jour total exports above bushels by July 1. Rut In hue Lord Rhondda, then Brit ls hflraß Controller, cabled that unl,> could send an additional 75, ifljßjKf bushels he could net take unity for assuring Ids people would be fed. The American responded by sending 55.000.0d0 HHj els of wheal, saved from their .consumption, between the tlrst year and the udvent of the new cro^J By October 10, 1918, we had alreadw .shipped 65,900,305 bushels since July" |L Absolutely the only limitation upon our wheat exports since the latest har vest has been the scarcity of ocean tonnage. If exports continue at the present rate, by July 1 of next year 'we will have sent more than 237,500,- 000 bushels to Europe. Thus are we making good America's (pledge that the bread rations of Allied 'Europe shall be maintained.

S. HEALTH SERVICE i ISSUES WARNING Increase in All Respiratory Dis eases After the Influenza Epidemic Probable. Influenza Expected to Lurk for Month*. How to Guard Against Pneumonia. Common Cold* Highly Catching—lm portance of Suitable Clothing—Could Save 100,000 Live*. Washington, D. C.—With the subsid ence of Hie epidemic of Influenza the attention of health officers is directed to pneumonia, bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory system whloh regularly cause a large number of deaths, especially during the winter season. According to Rupert Blue, Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service, these diseases will be especially prevalent this win ter unless the people are particularly careful to obey health Instructions. “The present epidemic,” said Sur geon General Blue, “has taught by bit ter experience how readily a condition beginning apparently as a slight cold may go on to pneumonia and death. Although the worst of the epidemic- Is over, there will continue to be a large number of scattered cases, many of them mild and unrecognized, which will be danger spots to be guarded against.” The Surgeon General likened the present situation to that after a L great fire, saying, “No fire chief who ■understands his business stops playing Fthe hose on the charred debris as soon |as the flames and visible fire have dis appeared. On the contrary, he con tinues the water for hours and even days, for he knows that there Is dan ger of the Are rekindling from smol dering embers." “Then you fear another outbreak of Influenza?” he was asked. “Not neces sarily another large epidemic,” said the Surgeon General, “but unless the people learn to realize the seriousness of the danger they will be compelled to pay a heavy death toll from pneumo nia and other respiratory diseases. I Common Colds Highly Catching. “It Is encouraging to observe that people are beginning to learn that or dinary coughs and colds are highly catching and are spread from person to person by means of droplets of germ laden mucus Such droplets are sprayed into the air when careless or Ignorant people cough or sneeze with out covering their mouth and nose. It Is also good to know that people have learned something about the value ol fresh air. In summer, when people are largely out of doors, the respira tory diseases (coughs, colds, pneumo nla, etc.) are Infrequent; In the fall, as people begin to remain Indoors, the respiratory diseases increase; In the winter, when people are prone to stay In badly ventilated, overheated rooms, the respiratory diseases become very prevalent Suitable Clothing Important. “Still another factor In the produc tion of colds, pneumonia and other re spiratory diseases is carelessness or ig norance of the people regarding suit able clothing during the seasons when the weather suddenly changes, sitting in warm rooms too heavily dressed or, what is even more common, especially among womea, dressing so lightly that windows ure kept closed In order to be comfortably warm. This is a very In jurious practice. Could Save 100,000 Lives. “I believe we could easily save one hundred thousand lives annually in the United States If tfll the people would adopt the system of fresh air living followed, for example, In tuber culosis sanatoria. There Is nothing mysterious about It —no specific medi cine, no vaccine. The important thing is right living, good food and plenty of fresh air. Droplet Infection Explained In Picture*. "The Bureau of Public Health, Treasury Department, has just Issued a striking poster drawn by Berryman, the well-known Washington cartoonist The poster exemplifies the modem method of health education. A few years ago, under similar circumstances, the health authorities would have Is sued an official dry but scientifically accurate bulletin teaching the role of droplet Infection In the spread of re spiratory diseases. The only ones who would have understood the bulletin would have been those who already knew all about the subject The man In the street the plain citizen and the many millions who toll for their living would have had no time and no desire to wade through the technical phrase ology."
