EXPERTS VISIT PICKENS
AND SUMTER, GUESTS OF A. TIC N
BY LEANDER POOLE

York, September 1S.-(SpeciaI. )-Setting
a new pace in an endeavor to help the
great cause of good health and better
farming, the officials of the Alabama,
Tennessee and Northern railway have
toured their lines today with the experts
of Captain Hobson, who have been
preaching the gospel of better sanitation
for farm homes, less mosquitoes and
flies, more production per acre Of crops
and how to best protect the fertility If
the soil that has too long been depleted
by the one crop system.
splendid train oi all steel coaches was
provided by the management, who took
the added precaution of sending "a light
engine out over th. road to guard against
wash-outs that might have been occa-
stoned by the terrific rains of the past
four days Russell Houston. general
freight agent of the company and Super
intendent Carzeveal made the trip to look
after the comfort OF the party who were
the guests of the road while on the trip.
Despite the rain splendid crowd met
the train at Geiger, where the first stop
was made, and where about l25 people
listened to splendid addresses by Drs.
Sanders and Stiles, who did most of the
speaking at that point. The Importance
of guarding against hookworm infection
was pointed out. and how to cure the dis
ease when found.
The next stop was made at Alicevi1ie,
the largest town IN the line, but which 50
far has furnished the smallest crowd A
few of the representative citizens gath
cred in the hall over drug store, where
the experts made the usual addresses
along sanitary lines.
Aliceville is a rather nice town, where
evidences of up-to-date methods are prev
alent. The town is installing an electric
lighting system, which is being financed
by private capital. The municipality
owns it's waterworks. They are also
building a nice new school building with
a splendid auditorium. The school chill
dren at this point did not attend the
meeting, much to the regret of some of
the gentlemen who feel that the best wa y
to teach sanitation Is through coming
generations
Leaving Aiceviiie time, the part,'

the hungry travellers JniIn ediately after
dinner the speakers commenced and Z,

sustained. so much so that the speakers
went over time, so eager were the people
to grasp the IDEAS advanced.
II was at Carrollton that Miss Nesblt
OF the Red Cross society did her best
work In interesting the ladies In the
movement of providing trained nurses for
each given section of the country Her
plan Is rather novel in that it provides
for way by which people of limited
means in rural communities may have
the best of care.
Carrollton has Il nice courthouse. with
new jail that Inspector Oates forced
the people to build. much il would appear
against their wishes.
DEPRESSING from strict report of the
trip, 1t seems that the people i'm certain
sections touched are in favor of reason
able sanitation. but they do object very
strenuoulsly to the present way of con-
ductng jails SO that they have more con-,
veniences than the private homes.
As whole. the Carrollton meeting
would be classed as hummer in the
parlance of the day
Leaving that town, the next stop was
made at Reform. the northern terminus
of the line where the auditorium of the
school building was filled to overhowing
with the citizenship of that section of
thriving Pickens Reform has a fine
school. It's teachers seem to believe that
they may act as agents in carrying the
gospel of better sanitation down to the
homes of the people. They were all pres
ent with their pupils. Professor Hendley
was present and introduced the speakers.
DR. Stiles was the first one up and male
his usual fine address. He was followed
by DR.. Sanders, WHO gave way to Dr.
Won Ezdorf, who stressed the need for
keeping down the mosquito and thus
avoiding maralial fevers.
The meeting was marked by close at
tention and marked enthusiasm. Taken
as whole, the trip was great success.
and the party reached York on time. the
special running through without stop.
