TO FICHT DISEASES
BY FARM SANITATION
Milk a Great Source Of
Danger
A visit to the average Southern farm
makes apparent the need for better
(arm sanitation. Lack of cleanliness
about the stables, barn lots, pig Jityas
and poultry houses cause them to be
breeding places for flies and mosqui
toes. Milk borne diseases are all too
common in country districts and are
due to lack of cleanliness in the pro
duction and handling of milk and Its
production. An enumeration of these
diseases may not be out of place.
They are infectious diarrhoea, dys
entery, tuberculosis, cowpox, typhoid
fever, paratyphoid, diphtheria, septic
sore throat, scarlet tever and various
Infections usually known as "bad
blood.’' Milk is the most wholesome
and nutritious of animal foods, but
when It is permitted to become con
taminated with tho germs of danger
ous diseases It immediately becomes a
menace to health. Proper oare ex
ercised as to the cleanliness of the
premises, the udder and teats of the
cow, the hands and clothing of the
milker and the vessels In which milk
is handled will eliminate most of the
danger from this source.
On many farms and at practically
all villages and small town slaughter
Pene It is customary to feed the ofTal
from butchering to hogs. This is
fraught with so much danger to the
health of people and animals that the
feeding of uncooked offal should be
prohibited by state law. Various In
fectious and parasitic diseases of ani
mals and people are transmitted In
this manner. Trichiasis, muscle worm
Infestation, and tapeworm larvae In
festation, commonly known as port
measles and beef measles, and taber
culosts. hog cholera and other In
fections are transmitted to animals
kept on premises where offm i* fed.
When the meat of such animals is used
Ibr human food there Is likelihood of
the disease being transmitted to peo
ple.
Innumerable parasitic diseases of
ftann animals are transmitted from
“sanitary feed lots and poorly drain
ed or swampy pastures. Many forms
of animal parasites pass a part of
the life cycle* on the ground in tooist
places or In the bodies of some of
the lower forms of life, such as snails
THE JACKSON PROGRESS -ARCUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 118
and tiie larvae of beetles. Pasture
drainage and pasture rotation are the
means by which this class of infesta
tion may be prevented or controlled.
A comparatively small expenditure of
money and labor will, on the average
farm, improve conditions wonderfully
in this respect and pay the owner a
high percentage of profit when Intelli
gently done. The losses from para
sitic diseases of farm animals are so
great that in these times when con
servation of animal lives and health
is so important this feature of farm
sanitation should not be neglected.—
Dr. W. M. Burson, State College of
Agriculture.
CALF CLUBS CALLING
FEHt PUREBRED CALVES
Many Small Farmers Using
These Clubs Asa Market
The Calf Clubs of Georgia are call
ing for pure bred calves and enrolling
more boys and girls this year than
ever before. This is just another ln ;
dex of the increasing Interest in live
stock in the slate. Through the com
munity, county and state clubs the
young people are being given the best
methods of feeding and breeding cat
tle.
Through a well organized county
Calf Club, properly financed by the
local business hvc-n, the available In
formation of the College of Agricul
ture has on the subject of cattle feed
ing and breeding and the practical
knowledge of the County Agent may
be placed in reach of the boys and
girls, and it will be possible for each
member to have & calf of desirable
breeding to work with. It Is not ex
pected that the boys and girls so en
gaged will immediately launch out In
the cattle business or that the system
of farming as practiced by their fath
ers will be materially changed, but it
is expected that the knowledge so
imparted to the farm boys and girls
will form a nucleus for a future agri
cultural know-ledge which will favor
a system of farming that takes Into
consideration the value and place of
cattle raising. This means that
through the Calf Club work live stock
men will be reared. Aftgr all, It is
livestock men that Georgia needs
most, for with them the cattle would
soon be on the farms.
Aside from the boys’ and girls’
standpoint the work should prove o'
value to those farmers who
are"* raiding cattfe on 1 ' a small scale
and depend on the local butcher and
country buyer for a market, and to
those who are interested in creating
an atmosphere favoring pure bred cat
tle. The market created when the
calves are purchased for the Calf Club
members should interest the farmers
who annually have calves for sale. A
number of farmers understand so well
the vlue of the work in this respect
that they have been active in assist
ing in the organization of calf clubs
In their respective counties. —Prof. W.
R. Nlsbet, State College of Agriculture.

There Is more Catarrh In this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and for years it was sup
posed to be incurable. Doctors pre- '
scribed local remedies, and by constant- ,
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a
local disease, greatly influenced by con
stitutional conditions and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Hall’s

If the esteemed Georgia legislature,
which convenes on June 27, would
transact all its business in ten das
and go home it would prove a bless
ing to the State. How much better
such a plan would be instead of
spending fifty days wrangling over
the most trivial and petty matters,
many .pf which have been settled, at
home. With the country up to its
neck in war the people of Georgia
are in no humor to have the general
assembly waste fifty days airing pet
ty spites, creating city courts, abol
ishing t :ty courts, estab’ishing new
offices, etc., i*te.
BAD KIDNEYS LAID HIM UP
A slight kidney ailment may lead
to dropsy or Bright’s disease. Don’t
neglect it. Frank Miller, Bingham,

Kidney Pills; now feeling as good as
I ever did before.” Carmichael Drug

SMITH AND HOWARD TO
SPEAK HIRE SATURDAY
With two politcal addresses sched
uled for Jackson Saturday afternoon,
it appears as if the lid has been pri
zed off and citizens of the county will
be treated to plenty of poltics from
now on. Hon. John R. L. Smth, of Ma
con, will speak at 3 o’clock, new fast
time, in the interest of Hon. W. J.
Harris, and Hon. William Schley
Howard, candidate for the United
States senate, is also down for an ad
dress at 3 o’clock. No doubt a large
body of voters will be out to listen to
these addresses.
The restriction on the importation
of crude rubber has been followed by
restrictions on importation of four
commodities possessing some of the
characterittics of rubber, and capable
under some circumstances of being
used as substitutes for natural rubber.
Arrangements have been made for
a reduced railroad fare of approxi
mately 1 cent a mile for soldiers and
sailors who desire to visit their homes
before going overseas.
The German submarines * have

Now is the chance for the man who

Increased demands for common la
bor are shown by a recent employ
ment survey by the United States
Employment service. Fifty-three cen
ters have calls exceeding the present
supply, while but three cities, all in
the west, report a surplus. Normal
conditions are reported by 25 cities.
