M. Lacy, Vital Sta- tiscian of the Georgia Depart¬ ment of Public Health, “through the thoughtlessness of the par¬ ents. Eleven suffocated while sleeping with the parents; eight I smothered under the bfed covers ! and two got their heads caught j and were strangled.” Eight others died from such miscellaneous causes as choking on pecans or strangling on milk. “It came as a surprise to me,” Mr. Lacy said, “when the death reports came in to find so many little children had died from causes which might have been prevented had the parents been aware that babies are active even while sleeping.” Public Health officials recom¬ mend that babies be bedded se¬ parately from adults, that baby beds have high sides to prevent falling out of bed and that small objects, which might choke them, be kept out of reach. The long, mild fall and large number of pullets this year have resulted in a large quantiy of medium-size eggs which are now selling at favorable prices.
