There is a much high er proportion of degeneration and im becility among first-born children ’han among others. The limitation of fami lies, therefore makes for the Increase of abnormal individuals. The best stock is produced only al the fourth or fifth birth. ROAD HEADED FOR ATLANTA. WAYCROSS. GA.. June 28—At a meeting of the board of directors of the Atlantic.
