NOTABLE DECLINE In TWO DISEASES

Richmond, Va. Jan. 4, 1911-
That two of Virginia's most dread
diseases claimed a smaller toll in
1910 than in 1909is the e>most cheer
ing note in a statement of Health
Commissioner Ennion G.. Williams
read today to the State Board of
Health at its annual meeting.
Typhoid fever and Consumption,
according to the Health Commits
sloner, showed a marked decline
during the past year, and the war
fare being waged against them by
the State and local health authori-
ties presages still greater victories
during the next year. During the
statistical year 1909, the Depart
ment of Health estimated 14,39S
cases of typhoid fever in the State,
exclusive of the cities which have
organized municipal health depart
ments. During the same period of
1910, this number was reduced to
IL ,S43, or a decline of 1855. Dur
ing 1909, the estimated number of
cases of consumption developing
was 6Sl6, while in 1910 this num-
Der was reduced to $3.50, a decline
of 1856.
In speaking of these figures to-
day, an officer of the Health De-
partment grew entuhiastic. COW
ing to the absence of a vital statis-
tics law" he said, "it is not posi-
BILE to tell precisely how many cases
of any given disease occur in the
State during any given time; but
the report filed with the Health
Department and the careful esti-
mates made from them leave no
doubt that there has been a great
and gratifying decline in typhoid
fever and consumption. Great as
this is, it is but an indication of the
possibilities of preventive medi-
cine. There is no reason why, in
time, these dread diseases should
not disappear, with a gain to hu-
man happiness and prosperity
which is almost beyond ones i'm
agination."
In addition to receiving Con-
missioner Williams report, the
State Board of Health transacted
a large volume of routine business,
reelecting the same officers and out
lining work for the future. There
was genuine tone of satisfaction
manifested througout the proceed
lngs and all the members of the
Board expressed their firm conf
dence that Virginia's war against,
disease was yielding magnificent
results.

An investigation by members of the
forest service in one section in Oregon
where there had been much loss from
forest fires disclosed what was believ-
ed to be an apparatus purposely de-
signed for the setting of these fires.
1t was about as large as gallon oil
can. equipped with a time fuse and Z
supply Of oil which would be ignited
some time after the contraption WAS
placed Tie miscreant who operated
this Internal machine probably took
it into the section which he wished
to fire. placed it. piled lot of dr.
stuff around it. started the fuse,
mounted his horse and by the time the
blaze got under headway was miles
away. 1t is likely sharp lookout will
be kept for devils of this type next
season. and il is safe TO assume th.t il
caught they will be allowed NIGH :

Of much interest to Virginians is
the Omnibus Claims Bill whiciSsss-
ed the Senate on the Goth Instant
for it provides for a number of Vir-
ginia church as we'll as some indi-
vidual claims. About a hundred
of these church claims, aggregating
one hundred thousand dollars, rep
resent bills introduced by Senator
Martin which later on he had refer
red to the Court of Claims, and now
the final step is accomplished, so
far as the Senate has to do with
them--in that payment is provided
for in the bill which has just pass
ed the Senate. The total of the
Virginia claims carried in the bill
(churches, fraternal organizations,
individuals, and overtime claims)
amounts to $164 1865. The bill
now goes over to the House for it's
action, and it is hoped that it will
be passed by that body, thereby in
suring the early payment of the ree.
spective amounts to the various
claimants throughout the State.
The constant activity and untiring,
energy displayed by Senator Mar
tin in the prosecution of these
claims--coverlng a period of eishl
years--has long been recognize b/

TALLULAH and TOCC0A.
Tallulah Falls is the great s

Iallulah Falls is the great show
place of Northeast Georgia. The
Tallulah, one of the headwaters oi
the Savannah river, and of the size
of the Bullpasture at Williamsville
forces it's way through water-gap
in the Blue Ridge. The gap is two
miles long, and in this distance the
river falls $50 feet. About one
half this fall is in three plunges
thehighest being 81 feet. From
the beginning of the gorge the
banks grow higher and higher abo We
the water until on one side there is
a cliff 1900 feet high, and so very
steep that not even a goat can
climb it.
The walls of the chasm are steep
everywhere, although at one point
there is a zigzag path not necessar-
lily dangerous, by means of which
one may descend to the river and
60 some distance up or down along
the channel, plank walks helping
the matter in some places. A branch
of this path leads some distance
along the face of a cliff enabling
the sightseeer to view the three
cataracts from an elevation of per-
haps 300 feet. Along the top of
the cliff and on each side of the
gorge is a path running as close to-
the precipice as is consistent with
safety. Yet, when one looks across
to the path on the other side, it
is startling to see how uncomfort-
ably close to The very brink the path
apparently runs.
At time of high water the roar
of the river is spoken of as some
thing terrific, and in fact Tallulah
is a Cherokee work meaning "Ter-
rible."
At the head of the gorge the rail-
road town of Tallulah Falls has
sprung up. Many of the houses
are vacant during the winter season.
During the summer there are nu-
merous visitors, some of whom stay
through the season.
A good time of year to see the
Falls is in October, when the beau
tiful autumnal tints of the foliage
add to the sublime effect. The va
por rising from the foaming waters
seems to render these tints peculiar
ly bright. Clinging to the precl-
pices areskrubby trees displaying all
colors from vivid red to a deep
green and contrasting strikingly
with the natural hues of the rock
walls.
Some dozen miles away, in tol-
erably level country and near the
city of Toccoa, is the Toccoa Wa
terfalI. The word Toccoa means
beautiful" " and is we'll deserved.
A creek aslarge as Jackson's Riv-
er at Vanderpool, and flowing lazl-
ly through a meadow, suddenly
drops 1856 feet over cliff, reaching
the bottom in three thin, ribbon
like streams and making a surpris-
in ely small amount of noise.
These two falls are in the form
er Cherokee county, and very many
of the rivers and mountains still
bear their Indian names.
1t is the opinion of geologists
that the Tallulah gorge is the re-
suit of a tremendous earthquake
which split the mountain asunder.

The everyday experience of the
average dairyman as well as the
handling of special milking tests Of
long duration proves very conclusively
that a COW which is given Il rest Of
six or eight weeks between milking
spells will produce just as much milk
and butter fat in the course of year
as a cow which is mlked to within a
few days of dropping her calf. 1t is
very natural that this Is so. for If she
does not have this period for recupera-
ton she has just so much less vigor
and reserve force with which to begin
her second period of lactation.

While it may be viewed as an act OF
generosity for parents to divide all or
their property equally among their
several children, there are good rea-
sons why they should keep enough of
1t to provide themselves modest
home and Il good living in their old
age, entirely apart from the hospitality
which, as a rule. is gladly extended to
them in the homes of their children.
There is no place like home. and to
people of no other age is this truer
than those we'll along in years. To have
a spot or realm whit h is ones own
and in which one can do as he pleases
is a prerogative that every parent
should enjoy. 1t not only breeds a
spirit of independence on the part or
the parent. but induces il wholesome
respect on the part of children and
other relatives.
