Everybody Iutere.ted In Sanitary Keen- latlone at thl. Time At thl* reason of the year every house holder is responsible to a certain decret for the health of our city. Unfortunate- ,here is ,0 ° m "oh indilTerence, on the part of many of our people, as to the general welfare. As a consequence, there is much sickness In town, and our own people are to blame. It is surprising that sensible people care so little about the ordinary observ ances of what goes to insure health and comfort. The following, from the Augusta Chronicle, fits our town exactly: This is the time of year when streets and private residences should be kept scrupulously clean The scavenger force should look closely after trash piles and promptly remove every piece of decay ing fruit or vegetable matter thrown into the roads or ditches. This is diftl-ult to do, because during the fruit season the stuff accumulates very rapidly. But the heavy rains and hot suns of August and Sep tember must not be permitted to breed disease. We are now entering the sea son when too mucli attention cannot be paid to hygiene. Lime your cellars and sinks, clean out your back lots, cut down high grass everywhere and spare no detail necessary for health and clean liness. Private citizens may in this way co-operate with the health authorities in keeping up a good record for our city. Exaggerated reports have gone out about the health of the city. There have been some cases of fever in town, but few of them fata]. There has been nothing approaching an epidemic of any kind. Our city is as healthy as any city In this latitude at this season, and with a proper degree of care on the part of public authorities and private citizens, w 'l remain so. The Leading GROCER has this to say: NOTE CAREFULLY: During my stay of three weeks in New York City and other East' ern markets, I have been in t position to buy groceries cheaper than ever before, and propose to sell them at a lower figure than any house in Georgia.
