Only 40 Cases
in July
Typhoid Reaches Lowest
Summer Level in History
of State Board Of
Health.

Richmond, Va, August Ii
Physicians reports for the
month Of July. just tabulated
by the State Board of Health,
show the smallest typhoid in
lection for any summer month
in the history of health work in
Virginia. Only 40 cases Of the
"summer scourge" were re-
ported by physicians.
The Board does not regard
these eases as the only ones
that occurred in the State dur
ing July and points out in it's
weekly bulletin that these in
cludc only the cases of physi-
clans who report to the State
Board of Health. But as the
records of the Board for past
years are based on the same re-
ports and on estimates made on
them, the comparative showing
is as good as the actual report.
During July, 1912, following
n very mild spring and cold
June, the physicians of the
State reported is5 cases, at that
time the record for the typhoid
months. In 1913, which was
notoriously n dad" typhoid
year throughout the country
hot and unhealthy July, the re-
port was ia cases, "a record
so alarming as To call forth
special warnings from the
Board of Health. This years
record, which is below that OF
1912 and but little more than
one-third that of 1913, sets a
new sanitary standard for the
State.

itself, . says it's weekly bulletin

Southern Manufacturers
Should Seek Trade OF South
American Countries.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug. Is.
Southern manufacturers and
merchants should lose no time
in taking advantage of the op
portunity which the war in
Europe has given them for ex-
tending their trade with South
American countries, particular
ly with Argentina and Uruguay
on account of the direct steam
ship service 70 these countries
through the port of Mobile,
declares MIR. Charles Lyon
Chandler, South American
Agent for Southern Railway,
Mobile and Ohio Railroad,
Queen and Crescent Route, and
affiliated lines.
These countries which have
been buying largely from Great
Britain, Germany, and France
must find "A new source of sup
ply and MIR. Chandler says there
is no reason why Southern
manufacturers should not OBJ
tain large share Of this trade,
particularly of machinery and
metal articles of all kinds as
well as cotton goods. The re-
cent establishment of an Ameri-
can bank Mt Buneos Ayres and
Rio Janeiro VIII prove of great
advantage.
Mr.. Chandler is prepared to
furnish information of every
character in regard to South
American markets, his Office in
this city having been establish
ed for the purpose of aiding
Southern business men to
establish trade with South
America. Inquiries may be ad =
dressed to him directly or made
of any representative of the
freight traffic department. of
Southern Railway or affiliated
lines all of whom will be III
close touch with Mr.. Chandler.
This Information or any other
help that Mr.. Chandler may be
able to give will be without any
cost, being part of Southern
Railways work for the develop
ment of the South.

Hieh-water Mark for Lime

The manufacture of lime in
the United States previous
records, the production amount
ing to s ,595, $3.50 short tons valu-
ed ut $l4,64S, 362, according TO
h. w. Stone, of the United
States Geological Survey. This
was an increase over 1912 of
90, 9sS tons in quantity and of
$6S7,24S in value. The average
price per ton in 1913 was $l.07,
az compared with SO o6 in 1912
and 81 .O3 in 1911. While Penn
sylvania liz the largest producer,
the output of this State is only
30 per cent of the total, indi-
eating the wide distribution Of
the industry; i'll fact, Al States
reported to the Survey pro-
duction of lime in 1913.
Limo used in building opera
tons represents nearly third
of the total output, but large
quantities are sold to chemical
works, sugar factories, tan
neries, etc, as well as to farm
ers for broadcasting on agricul-
tural land.

GUSTS DISPENSARY
Ballot Stands 246 to 142 TO
Close Liquor Place---The
Election May Be
Contested.

Abingdon, Va, Aug. 1.-THE
citizens of Abingdon today
voted by DAG to l42 to close the
liquor dispensary here that
was established in 1905.
Originally this dispensary paid
the town "A profit of $50, 900 n
year. but after Bristol voted to
license saloons, the profits
dwindled To about SIC, 600. The
election was held under a special
act of 1908.
1t is said that the friends of
the dispensary may contest the
election on the ground that the
citizens once voted on the
question under this law and
that the law was provided for
the election that year only.
l. =. Summers, a leading op-
ponent of the State wide pro
hibition, was asked for state
ment concerning the election
at is" he said, "a great vic
tory for temperance and local
option. | voted against the
dispensary and used my in
tiuence among my friends to
have it closed. Ii had become
Objectionable to our citizens
and under our present local
option laws the temperance
people, both local optionists
and prohibitionists, are greatly
pleased with result. AS | view
it, this election demonstrates
the efficiency Of the doctrine OF
local self government. 1t is
not u victory for State wide,
but for temperance under our
present State laws"
