'hen the mortician* and i
people had to come in under an
agreement to comply wjjj,
regulations, it was found the erne-
terie* would have to hire more men
to prepare graven and rather than
do that they ordered elimination of
funerals on Sunday. The undertak
ers didn’t like it but couldn’t help
themselves. It is peculiar that pay
ing the very highest sentimental and
religious obligation to the human
family, and the last that can be paid
to the individual, could be commer
cialized in this manner—but it’s one
more step following elimination al
most entirely of church funerals

Say what you please about the

people get a kick out of fishing.
The state department says fish were
more plentiful this year than in
many seasons, but in the middle and
upper part of the mate there isn’t
a lake or stream that hasn’t been
fished almost to death. Within

radius of 50 to 75 miles of any of
the larger communities in the Mid

hundred-, more spend,ng visitors
from the cities on week-ends if some
thing should be done to replenish the
streams and lakes.
Political Gosiip—
When campaign time rolls around
next year there wall be a larger
flock of candidates than in 1932. J.
J. Wilhoit. chairman of the Public
Commimion. and “Uncle Tobe'
Daniel, member, arc going to offer
for election. James A. Perry and
Waiver R. McDonald, who were re
moved from these two places, will
rua against them and reports have

former commissioners, also will be
in one of these two .-aces. It is ex
pected there will be at least three
candidates for commissioner of
agriculture.
WAK ON RATS IN M SOUTH
GEOCIA COUNTIES
Methods of rat conttrol
large area in South Georgia were
d-scussed at the state board
health ofice* in Atlanta with a view
to preventing spread of typhtu fever
and serious crop loss.
Co-ordinated effort between tire
state board of health, the state board
of entomology and the federal de
partment of agriculture is planned,
and it is probable that the program
will be launched shortly in about
00 counties in South Georgia, rough
ly defined as the peanut growing
The increasing incidence of typhus
fever, spread by rats, and growing
destruction of crops by the rats has
given rise to some concern and ap
peals have been made for assistance
exterminating the rats.
The rat infestation ha* spread
gradually over the peanut growing
area, where the rat seeks food. For
several years the United States Pub
lic Health 'Strvice has concerned
itself with methods of exterminat
ing the rodents as the only practical
method of combatting the disease.
Lately it has established a typhus
control area at Dothan, Ala., which
is the center of a large peanut
growing area of about five countic.:
in extreme southeastern Alabama.
This service also will cooperate with
the Georgians in their fight on the
rodent.
Travels Eight Miles a Night
t is necessary that the battle be
carried on over a wide area, inas
much as the particular rat involve.!,
known as the wharf or brown rat,
great traveler. Federal health
officials have noted that the little
■rill travel as far as eight
miles in a single night. Therefore
exterminalfpn in otoe community
would be only temporary, as the
rat* would drift tight back in ax
soon as there was a let-up
The principal method of extermi
nation is through the use of a pois
on known as squil, which is not in
jurious to other animals. Rats have
no power of regurgitation and there
fore cannot vomit the poison once
they have eaten it, as other animals
w.ll immediately do, without serious
(.armful effect* to themselves. This
poison, put out as bait over a wide
ar*:, it is believed will exterminate
or .it least control the ret infesta
tion.
As to crop loss, it is estimated by
the United States Department of
Agriculture that rats destroy an
nually more than 1200,000,000 in
foodrtuffs.
•While typhus is the principal con
cern of health officials in the rodent
control program, it ha-, been deter
mined that the rat also spreads the
bubonic plague, relapsing fever and
rat-bite fever, none of which have
become public problems in Georgia.
