EMILE AT DEATH. . . _____ * • t tod ear tbs dome of the Capitol, pro tected by walls of solid masonry and Kuarded by a steel door, are the rec ords of more than 179,040 citizens of Qeorgta In this vault, side by side, with tbe birth records, are death rec ords of more than 90,004 Individuals, who died since the Bureau of Vital Statistics was organized In 1919, and many are the tragedies to be found in these records, while a few comedies are also recorded there. Many records are not complete. The record of the little family, on the way to an adjoining state, whom fate leads to a hotel, which was destroyed by fire cannot be completed for none were left to furnish the necessary in formation. The death record of the i recluse of a noble family, known only 1 as John in the community, caused much ; trouble or no one knew his parentage or birthplace and his relatives were put to much expense In completing the ! record. Little was known of Bukumba Ka lnraba Wakanauga, but the record of Tiney Bugg was complete. She was near one hundred years of age and had resided in Georgia ail her life. Many peculiar names appear on the records. Combinations which oc cur by accident when looked at care fully, although the record is one of a death, causes a smile. There was one whose name was Polly Pod, another ivory Hooks, another Rosie Posie. With very common names the colors or fruits were mixed. There were Pink Brown, Green Yates, Green Berry, Henseta Blue, Little Bit White and Loved Cherry. Other combina tions appear on the records as Cry stal Music, Early Guest, Noble Shav er, Morning Mayes and among the sur names are to be found Eyestone, Bean row, Colddough, Pickles, Eeasterbug, Hogtimihon and Handalong. The ultimate aim and final purpose of all public health work is the limita tion of preventable diseases. Com plete death records are necessary to the checking of such work, for with out such records properly tabulated. It is impossible to tell whether the number of such deaths are on the de cline or the Increase and likewise whether the appropriation for such work has been judiciously expended or not. In tbe enforcement of the Compul sory School Attendance Act and the Child's Labor Law, tbe officials will find the birth records an unerring basis for Its administration. It Is be lieved that by such records the scholastic census may be purged of thousands of names of those who are not within the scholastic age to the detriment of those children who are ' Justly entitled to participate In the division of the school funds. The legitimacy, the age and the parentage of each child so recorded is establish ed and many questions as to its right may, in the future, be settled by J simple reference to the birth record. The Federal Government, in the issu ance of passports, is now demanding the establishment of citizenship, - which can be most easily done by a certified l irth certificate and in the settlement of the Veterans’ claims for additional compensation a birth record is required in such cases. The solution of many social prob lems now confronting the State may j be found in these records. The lim itation of the family to one or two children among the better class with j an average of six children among the \ uunoducated negro race means that tht State must double her educational fund or That the voter will, in the next generation, be more easily controlled by unscrupulous politicians. With the emigration of the negro to the northern states, the foreign born ele ment becomes a problem and a close and accurate record of such must be kept in order to protect the native born citizen. Rather than relax the records of such immigrants as to name, age, birthplace or parentage, it would he better to take the finger prints of each child born of foreign parentage in Georgia so that the race of anarchists and holshevists might be identified regardless of such changes they might make. In the past the importance of keep ing the birth record of a child has been compared by unthinking people with the keeping of the pedigree of standard bred hogs and dogs, the com parison is not fair, especially when applied to a human being, for none are to be compared in any way with hogs and dogs. With the modern legislation to protect, develop and edu cate the child at the expense of the tax payer, the tax payer has the right to demand a complete record of all children, so that he may not he im posed on by unscrupulous parents The State has the right to a complete record of all citizens since it places certain age qualifications as to the enforcement of its laws. And certain ly the child is entitled to a complete and perpetual record of its birth for in the absence of its parents many essential facts as to its existence can not be established in any other way than by an authenticated birth record Diphtheria is greatly on the Increase The death rate among children under five is higher than from tuberculosis at all ages. The Schick Test deter mines a child's susceptibility to dipb Iberia.

Cotton Prospect in Georgia Is Poorer Than in Any Cotton State Pointing out that the cotton prospect in Georgia is poorer than in any state, that South Georgia has learned to fight the weevil and has as a result planted 16 per cent more cotton than usual, while North Georgia shows a decrease in acreage, the office pf the agricultural statistician. United States Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Atlanta, issued yesterday a comprehensive report on cotton condi tions in Georgia. The report follows: Georgia Cotton Report. The cotton prospect in Georgia is poorer than in any state, according to the correspondents of the United States Bureau of Agriculture, though the ad joining stat e of South Carolina is in much the same situation. The contin_ uous rains during the early part of June prevented cultivation, induced growth of grass, and leached out much of the fertilizer. Befor e the farmers were able to get the fields clean the weevils were found in such large num_ bers that many farmers gave up the South Georgia on the hand has proportion wag large enough to be the decisive factor in making th e Georgia acreage less than last year. Acreage Decrease. While the other states show a return | to normal acreage of cotton. Georgia 1 and Seuth Carolina show reductions, j principally on account of the boll wee j vil. The destruction wrought last year j was disastrous. In Georgia the central ! and most important cotton district was practically wiped out. In 1922 the number g of weevils present early in the season indicated probable repetition if cotton were planted. The growers “seeded down" their plantations, put them in corn, or allowed them to lie idle. Acreage Increases. net increase there is about 15 per cent, become accustomed to the weevil and learned to fight him. The result is that more cotton has been planted in that section than in five or six years. The he will die later from even the mildest North Georgia, with the xoeption of a few mountain counties, shows some decrease. Here the planting was lim ited by rain and soil conditions. Summary. The Georgia cotton crop will be be low any in the last twenty years with the possible exception of last season. Weevil infestation is heavy and damage already severe. District No. 1, Northwest.

Gastro-intestinal conditions are usually called "stomach upsets” or "summer complaint," generally mean ing that the baby has diarrhoea or dye entery The baby may die of this or his stfength may be so undermined that thousands of death certificates show attack of whooping cough, mettles, etc. Mothers very frequently think that all babies must have "summer complaint," that a baby is hardly normal if he does not have at least one attack during t h e summer “Summer complaint" is not a normal condition—it should not be lightly set aside. It may result in a severe illness and very frequently, fev“r, is a sick baby and needs the doc every year, it may porve fatal. If the baby becomes nauseous, vom its, get feverish and has diarrhoea, do not think h e is teething, nor that his condition may be neglected. A baby with diarrhoea, especially diarrhoea accompanied b y nausea, vomiting %nd fever, is a sick baby and needs the doc tor. Stop all food, for twenty-four hours or even longer. Give him in place of food, water that has been boiled and cooled, a little at a time, but very' often. If you can get it, give the baby crushed ice in small amounts by mouth. A 20- minute tub bath with gentle rubbing given one or more times a day, will be very comforting and will probably save th e baby from having convulsions. Put an ice cap iced cloths or cloths wrung out in cold water on his head, and if his feet are cold, put a hot-water bottle or ! hot cloths to the feet.
