FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.

The department on tuberculosis has
been authorized by the board of con
troll to issue a monthly magazine
which will deal with the various as
poets of the campaign against tuber-
culosis. The magazine will be called
"The Campaign" It will carry no
advertising matter and will deal ex.
clusively with those subjects related
to the prevention and cure OF tuber-
culosis. A department will be devot-
ed to the state sanatorium at Oak
dale and will be under the direct sup
ervisfon Of DR.. H. v. Scarborough,
superintendent.
The campaign is deemed a great
step forward in the very successful
combat against tuberculosis in this
state. The magazine will reach a
vast number of readers throughout
the state and be a medium through
which to keep in touch with those
persons who have graduated from the
state sanatorium.
1t will be effective as an agency IN
procuring hospitals for various local.

South Carolina have each 100000
acres, and Georgia 100000 acres.
Not less than 80 percent Of this area,

permanently kept in forest for the
protection of the streams that rise in

After Us AGAIN.

The Commercial. New York City
June 81, 1914: The doctors are after
us again. Many Of the American Med
icaI Association are committed to a
campaign that has for its object the
passage of laws by congress and the
various state legislatures to compel
every man, woman and child in the
country to submit to an official medf
cal examination at least once a year
Granted that the services of thor
oughly capable and honest physician
could be obtained, periodical examin.
atoms might be well enough for those
who can afford them, but 1t is safe to
say that most Of the doctors who are
advocating such a law are thinking
more Of the fees they would receive
than Of the good it would do. Even
If the doctors were public employees
whose services were free to the
masses Of the people, as far as max.
Ing these examinations Is concerned
they would still be exposed to the
temptation Of soaring those whom
they examined into taking a course
of treatment to be prescribed by the
examiners or by other members OF
the medical profession who would
split fees. At this very convention
one OF the most prominent surgeons in
the country said that major abdomin-
al operations are performed altogeth-
er too often and In many cases by
practitioners who do not know enough
about surgery to be permitted to

How should the milk be heated
By placing the bottle, still stopper
ed with cotton, in pan of warm
water and letting it stand until it
reaches body temperature. Test by
dropping on the bare forearm. Never

Any house furnishing or department

cents worth of ice per day. A hus-
band or son handy with tools can
make little ice chest for the baby's
milk as follows:
Get a wooden box large enough to
hold an ordinary zinc Of tin water
pail. Fasten a lid on this box with
hinges and a stout hook or clasp. Set

smaller pail inside the first one, and
pack ice between the two pals. Place
the bottles hold,fng the baby's milk in
side the smaller pail, and cover IL
tightly. Line the lid of the box with
newspapers, covering them with oil
cloth to keep them dry. This keeps
out heat and prevents melting Of fee.

chest finds favor with country moth
ers in particular 1t can be run for

Boards of aldermen, city councils and
town officials of other kinds wake up
from the most absolute lethargy with
regard to the disease at this time, and,
especially In the smaller towns and
country places, pass ordinances and
revive regulations requiring dogs to
be muzzled while on the streets. This
is all the more amusing because the
term "dog-days" has no reference to
dogs, but is borrowed from the Ro-
mans, who called Sirius, the brightest

dog-star. Rome had it's fiercest heats
usually during this period; therefore,
the time was dreaded and came to
have the reputation Of an unhealthy
season, though not with any special
reference to the dogs of Rome. In
our day the popular meaning OF the
"dogdays" is that dogs are especial
~ likely to go mad at this time. The
consequence is that, while the ami

muzzling, their discomfort is greatly
added to by the foolish dread which
keeps people from giving them water

The recent Seattle epidemic shows
