and seem to herald a splendid season.

ance various shipments of canteloupes

HEALTH IN FRANCE
REPORTED EXCELLENT
(BS Associated Press.)

PARIS, June Is. France is in
excellent health. None of the epi
denies dreaded with the coming of
hot weather have developed. There
were 839 deaths in Paris last week as
against 919 the preceding week and
942 the average for this season of the
year. Typhoid fever, the most dreaded
of all diseases made only three vic
Tins. Reports from points where
soldiers are concentrated and
where there were great many cases
during the winter show that the
epidemic is abating.

CITY CAN BUILD
A DISPOSAL PLANT
Continued from Page H.

crematory to dispose of the garbage of
the city
DR.. Mays, not satisfied with reading
literature on the matter on yesterday
paid visit to Macon and Albany and
inspected two modern disposal plants
in operation in those two cities. He
saw them at work and is convinced
that Americus can make no better
investment at this time than to build
disposal plant.
A disposal plant, such as DR.. Mays
suggests, would care for all garbage,
refuse and dirt collected daily by the
dump carts of the street force. All
that would be left of this undesirable
filth after the crematory had done it's
work would be few ashes and few
ringlets of blue smoke.
Citizens interested in solving the
health problem Of the city are
endorsing this latest move Of DR..
Mays and will go with him before the
city council to advocate the city dis
posal plant. Americas can well afford
to invest $6,000aand do away with the
unsightly and disease breeding public
dumping ground.
