VITAL STATISTICS A BUSINESS
ASSET

The Mississippi Land Development
Association desires to attract immi-
grafton to that State. In preparing
literature, the committee wished to
make positive statements concerning
the comparative heahhEulness Of the
State. When the association attempted
to secure reliable data on this point
however, it was found that no records
Of any sort existed by which the NOR
tally or morbidity Of the State could
be ascertained. This proved such a
serious drawback that business men
interested in real estate and land de-
veloprent have taken up the question
as a business proposition and are in
augurating a movement for the passage
Of a vital statitics law in order that
official records Of the States health
luIness may be obtained, This action
in a Southern State is particularly
gratifying. as thatlsecton has for many
years been without adequate vital
statistics. Only BY carefully compiled
official records is it possible to over.
come the popular impression which
was created BY serious epidemics in
past years, Of the comparative un-
healthfulness Of that portion of the
country It is therefore important that
Southern States adopt and enforce
adequate vital statistic laws in order
that the mortality and mo-bidity Of the
population may be a matter Of record
and not Of rumor or surmise. lncreas-
ing healthfulness consequent on the
suppression Of malaria. yallow fever
and hookworm disease, witt be one Of

HOGS SAVED; FROM CHOLERA;
NO HELP FOR BABIES

Two items recently appeared in a
Southern newspaper which apparently
have no relation and yet are extremely
suggestive. Here is the FIRST one;
Hog Cholera Eradicatsd-A report
comes from jackson that hog cholera
has been entirely eradicaied from the
State. Only one case was reported.
it is said. that one being near Naichez.
The usual serum was prepared and
administered with excellent effect. so
that there is said to be not a single
case in Mississippi at the present time.
The live stock commission furnishes
the serum for hog cholera free Of
charge to veterinarians, and in the
event Of any outbreak, it can be quick
y administered and the disease i'm.
mediately suppressed.
The second was not considered Of
sufficient Importance to call for a
heading:
Withot warning. little Jim McCabe.
ten years old, son Of Mrs. Elizabeth
McCabe, was stricken By the hand Of
death this morning, and loriy-6ye
minutes later was no more. Death
was due to spinal meningitis.
Careful examination Of previous and
subsequent issues Of the newspaper
fails to show that the State which
furnished serum Tor hog cholera made
any effort to secure a serum to save
the life Of Of little John McCabe, or
to prevent the development Of more
cases Of meningitis. A single case Of
hog cholera is reported at once and
the State live stock commission takes
immediate action. You know no one
knows how many children in Missis-
sippi are suffering from spinal menin-
gifts or even how many have died
from that dread disease in the
last year The State which de-
mands a repo Of every case Of hog
cholera does not even record the death
Of a child from spinal meningitis, or
from any other cause. Another
STANCE feature-uo one one objects to
the State suppressing hog cholera.
In fact the hogs Of Mississippi have
not even organized National League
