to the dread disease of canker which

found no evidence of the disease in
this locality and said that such a per

tirely eradicatcd within six months
or a year at the longest.

prove slowly, if at all. The un-
desirable male animal must not
be allowed to perpetuate his bad
qualities. There is no need that
he should; and it is only because
farmers do not fully realize the
truth of their own assertion that
we need better livestock, that
they tolerate these scrubs in the
land.
If you really believe that you
need better livestock, you will
exercise much care in your selec-
ton of a sire, and you will certain
ly not help prolong the days of
any scrub sire by giving him a
chance to perpetuate his kind.
The'only practical way we have
to improve our livestock is by the
use of good pure-bred sires. =

"Kill The Scrub Sire"

You can scarcely find a farmer
who will not unhesitatingly tell
you that one of the greatest needs
of the South is more and better
livestock. On this point, opinion
is practically unanimous.
Yet, in many cases, the same
farmer who tells you that better
livestock is needed will breed his
sows, or his cows, or his mares to
scrub boars, or,bulls, or stations.
1t seems'not to occur to him that
in doing this he is doing the most
effective thing possible to keep
the livestock of the South from
getting better.
1t should need no argument tc
convince any man that as long as
scrub slres are used by Southern
farmers the quality of the live

Senator West Makes
Plea For Drainage
Work In South

(By U. S. Senator William S. West of Georgia. }
Two of the greatest advantages
OF drainage in our Southern States
are the promotion of health and
the development of agriculture.
| am i'll hearty accord with the
purpose of the National Drainage
Congress, as | understand them.
1t seems to me that the importance
of the work in hand cannot be
overestimated. Proper drainage is
a matter of public necessity and
general concern. 1t means the
health OF TIE people, and upon
good health depend their prospect
tY, happiness and contentment.
know of nothing so vital to the
welfare and peace Of the masses as
health. Freedom from sickness is
humanlty's most precious boon.
1t is inexcusable in those in
authhrlty not to avail themselves
of every opportunity and every
resource within their power to
safeguard community against
disease and be it remembered that
drainage is powerful help in
wardlng off many diseases. In
my opinion it is likewise the duty
of every individual citizen to do
his full part in the effort to i'm
prove health conditions. Promote
the health of the people and a long
step forward has been~taken in the
march of material progress and
substantial development. Good
health is the fulcrum power that
moves men to resolute deeds and
successful action. 1t vanquishes
opposition and waves its banner in
triumph over many scenes of con-
flicU.
BY drainage untold acres of un-
productive land can be reclaimed.
and what were once marshes be-
come fertile fields, covered with
veruure and golden grain and smil-
ing with peace and plenty. 1t
contributes to the development of
agriculture which is the basis Of
all wealth-the corner stone of our
Republic. Drainage develops agri-
culture and agriculture increases
population, builds railroads, con-
structs good highways, erects
school houses and churches. adds
to the attractiveness of the home
turns the wheels of commerce and
keeps alive the industrial spirit of
the people.
1t is always a pleasure to visit
Savannah. 1t lisa city of gracious
beauty and everincreasing strength
where ever prospect pleases and
not even man is viIe." l hope the
sessions of the Congress at Sayan-
nah April 22-25 will be largely
attended and will be the means of
awakening the public inter est in
the very important matter of
drainage. l will give my hearty
cooperation in all educational
work along this line.
