n Things To Do
In Typhoid Fever
1. In all cases of typhoid, how¬
ever mild, the patient should re¬
main in bed. The course of the
disease may be greatly shortened
by keeping the patient in prostrate
position.
2. The vessels used in the sick
room should be thoroughly scalded
after use.
3. All food utensils should be
washed and scalded seperately be¬
fore placing with dishes used by
the family.
4. Bed linens, towels, wearing
apparel, should be plunged into
boiling water or water containing
a strong solution of carbolic acid
before they are washed.
5. Chloride of lime, which can
be bought by dozen cans; or bi¬
chloride of mercury, are safe dis-
enfectants for vessels used in the
sick room.
6. The caretaker should cleanse
her hands with a disenfectant (car¬
bolic acid, creolin, bichloride of
mercury), before taking food.
7. Treat all excreta from patient
with disenfectant of sufficient
strength that all typhoid germs
may be killed before removing
from the sick room.

THE FITZGERALD LEADER. SATURDAY JUNE 17. 1911
Horse Races Held
" ^
Cordele, June 15.—The races
held yesterday under the auspices
of the Wiregrass Circuit were wit
nessed by an immense crowd of
spectators who cheered loudly as
the ponies went past the grand¬
stand. The weather was fine and
the opening day of the three-day
race meet proved unusually suc¬
cessful in both races and attend¬
ance, which was a record-breaker
for Cordele races.
The meet had been given wide
publicity and many hundreds of
v sitors, wild with enthusiasm, as-
sembed at the tracks in the west¬
ern part of the city long before
the races began. The Wiregrass
Circuit is composed of the cities
of Albany, Tifton, Fitzgerald,
Waycross, Hawkinsville, Dublin,
Cordele and many other towns,
and many horses were here from
these points.
For today’s races many horses
from LaGrange, Talbotton, Macon
and other points will be entered.
The races will continue on through
Friday, and it is expected that the
crowds will be increased at each
event.
Lord Guyton, owned by Thomas
Nesbit, Cordele, won t. e free-ior-
all trot, with Flashlight, owned by
I John Cain, of Cordele, a close
second; Veteran third and True
Tucker fourth; time 1:06.
• The second race which was a
2:40 trot and pace was won by
Golden Eagle, with Lord G. sec¬
ond, and Crispco third. “Jolter”
won the free-for-all running race.
First Baptist Church
Regular services will be held at
the First Baptist church Sunday
morning and night, conducted by
