hope to close out the entire

We have had an immense

Death Kate of America* Lower Than
That of Any Other Georgia City—Some
Peculiarly Interesting Facta
Auotlier year has come and gone, and
the city officers will soon review their
work for 1801.
Among the reports that will soon be
made to the mayor and city council as
they start out upon the great work tlr.it
lies beiore them for 1S0U, none will be
more interesting than that of the effici
ent and energetic sanitary commissioner.
In view of Ids splendid report that is
already la good shape, the Tiues-Rk-J
corder takes pleasure in announcing to
the world at large once more with gen
uine pride and pleasure that here In
Americas is the most healthful climate
to he found beneath the blue skies of
tiie sunny south.
hast year by actual statistics the mor
tuary report of Americus showed this
city to have a smaller death ratio than
any city in Georgia. This was a good
point for Americas. It actually lead
the whole slate, and in fact, this whole
section of the south in point of health
The report this year promises to even
he more wonderful than that of last
year.
A prominent citizen of Americus in
speaking of our record yesterday took
occasion to observe:
“Iu tiie absence of the actual mortu
ary ligures, not having the chance to see
all the sextons of tiie various cemeteries,
I am incliued to believe that our death
rate will be no greater than that of last
year. If, however, such should he the
case there are causes that were not
preseut then, namely: A large railroad
habitation, who from their manner of
life are much more liable to disease than
the settled citizen. These people come
through malarial districts, and much of
their sickness is from that cause. Also
the long protracted drouths when dust,
and only dust, and only dust—was tiie
rule. Remove these two causes and I
am sure we will compare favorably with
last year."
The fact that with her increased popu
lation, Americus' death report has not
been more than last year counts for
much.
Last summer was not noted for its
healthfulncss anywhere. Fever of a
most malignant type prevailed every
where. It speaks doubly well for Ameri
cus' cleanliness, therefore, to note such
a wholesome state of afTairs.
The sanitary inspector certainly tie-
serves the thanks and congratulations of
every citizen for his excellent work and
untiring vigilance In keeping the city
clean.

The question of reducing the cotton
acreage lias never been so much dis
cussed as now.
For the last few months the heads of
the agricultural bureaus of the cotton
growing states fchave been agitating tiie
liiestiou with the hope of iiitting on
some remedy for the evil.
Out of this discussion some practical
results have come.
There will be a convention composed
of representatives from the cotton grow
ing states in Montgomery on January
(1, 1802, and Americus will be represent
ed there.
The letters of Commissioners R. T.
Nesbitt, ot Georgia; Hector I>. Lane, of
Alabama, and I). G. Godwin, of Tennes
see, on this mooted question have been
widely published, and have been produc
tive of a new interest in the matter of
reducing the cotton acreage.
