Macon Telegraph: Solicitor General
John F. DeLacey of the Oconee circuit
says cotton mill building is becoming
quite popular in his section, three big
factories having been established within
a radius of twenty miles around East
man, one being in Eastman. The East
man mill has not yet been built, but the
foundation is being laid, and the work
will be rushed. 1t is to be a S10O,000 mill.
"Our part of the state bids fair to be-
come an important manufacturing cen
ter said he, IF we keep up our present
lick, Hawkinsville has big mill Coch-
ran has one and Eastman will soon have
one. Cochran is twenty miles from East
man and Hawkinsville is twenty miles
from us. / look for considerable indus
trial development in the near future"

NEED FOR A BOARD OF HEALTH.

Triton Gazette: The need for a proper
ly-organized State Board of Health be-
comes more urgent with each passing
year. Perhaps it is most apparent when
a yellow fever outbreak or a similar cpl
demic threatens but the need is ever
present with us. Just now the necessity
for an organized authority of this kind
is keenly felt in this section Last year
when smallpox in a mild form was spread
an through South Georgia the city au-
thorities of Triton and county authorities
of Berrien used prompt and efficient
means, and the disease was thoroughly
stamped out. and every place where it had
appeared disnfected.
