Warning! Small Pox
At present there are six known cases of this disease reported to the Health Office. How many unreported cases
and how many EXPOSURES there are, we do not know. The dsease is complicated by the fact that there have
been about THIRTY cases of CHICKEN-POX within the last four weeks. IN THE LAST SIX YEARS AND
OUT OF A POPULATION of 15,000 in Baldwin County, about 600 people have been vaccinated against Small
pox. It is therefore reasonable to suppose that all the UN VACCINATED are not protected against the disease.
Are you safe, is your family safe from the disease? You and they certainly are not unless you have been suc
cessfully vaccinated, or have had the disease.
ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION
-Why do people so fear SMALLPOX, and yet WHY DO SO MANY GO THROUGH LIFE AND SHUN VACCI-
NATION. It is not very short of a disgrace to have SMALLPOX as easy as it is to prevent; NOW IS IT?
A good vaccination will probably last for life. Vaccination may be obtained at the Health Office

of course there was a legitimate rea
son for the raise, even though it did
involve sacrifice* on the part of the
publishers but when the railroad
steps out with demands for a higher
rate for transporting publications
then it is time to call a halt.
We wonder how the public would
feel if it had to meet the require

of the publishers who deliver their
bundles to the cars, each bundle sep-
srated to reach the different zones,
put the bundles in the cars at their
own expense and have them picked
up by their dealers at' the points bf

fice department has practically no
cost of handling, other than what
if pays to the railroads.
The government charges are in ex
cess of $.1.70 per hundred pounds for
a haulage of 150 miles for newspa-
1 pers whereas railroads and other car
riers competing for similar ship-

cents to 90 cents per hundred pounds 1

The cost of newspaper transporta-

The agricultural department of
the Central railroad has sent out a
circular letter to a number of farm
ers in this county, urging them to be
patient with their vetch and not to
plough it under because it has not
developed as they'thought it ought.
Vetch is different from winter oats
and will not grow during cold weath
er. The letter says let the vdteh get
its April growth and if inoculation
caught properly production will
weigh around six tons to the acre.
A number of farmers-in-Baldwin
have planted vetch this year and
have been disappointed over the
prospect of a yield. This letter will
