Nothing is better for growing
chicks than liberal supply of sour
milk. If it can be obtained, it
always should be kept before them
in an open dish or pan where they
can eat and drink it freely. Where
sour milk is fed, the amount of beef
scrap in the dry mash may be re-
duced one-half.
Plenty of fresh, clean water is alb
solutely necessary for all growing
chicks. In hot weather, it should be
given twice daily and put into foun-
tains or dishes and placed in the
shade so as to keep as cool as pos
sible. Clean the water dish thor
oughly each day before filling.
An abundance of free range with
plenty OF shade is necessary if chicks
are to grow rapidly and develop into
vigorous fowls. Growing chicks that
have free range obtain quantities of
green feed. bugs. worms, and other
things. therefore requiring less grain,
and they are also less liable to sick
ness or disease. Give your chicks
free range whenever possible.

COMMON MISERY PROMPTS
PEOPLE TO GET TOGETHER
Rochester Citizens Take Great Inter.
est in Good Roads AssO-
citation.

The interest of the citizens of
Rochester and vicinity has for some
time been centered around the activ-
tiles of the Good Roads Association
of District Four.
The reason for this was explained
at some length in the last issue of
The Standard. 1t seems that some
times benefits may be derived from
evil things. If the roads were not
as miserable as they really are, there
is a probability that the residents of
this district would not be as firmly
united as they are today
The common misery has created a
strong feeling of mutual sympathy
The Good Roads Association of
District Four is not a Rochester or
ganization, although Rochester. as
the most centrally located commu
nifty, has been chosen as the place
for meetings and headquarters. Road
District Four, with an area of 60
square miles, embraces. besides
Rochester, Independence. Gate, part
of Nina and Grand Mound.
The main purpose of the Good
Roads Association is, of course, to
work for better roads, but it endeay-
ors to be a social organization as
we'll, and desires to be of service in
the community in every way pos
sible.
To this end. community gather
ings, socials and lectures on helpful
topics will be arranged for in the
future.

Anyhow, we feel that we need it.
We would otherwise turn helplessly
sour from humping over our bad
roads and repeatedly busting our We
hicles of locomotion.
To live in country with poor
roads means a mental strain on the
residents for many reasons. When
we see big touring cars with license
plates from some distant state, we
feel guilty and ashamed at the same
time, and we feel desire to make
ourselves invisible rather than wait
for the query, What county is
this?"
Thurston county stands the chance
of getting some bad notoriety from
its roads. Hence citizens of the
whole county should unite to com.
bat this evil The sooner the better,
for all of us.

HEALTH LAWS PASSED
AND NOT PASSED

The Georgia State Board of Health
did not succeed in getting through the
recent legislature all the laws it de-
sired, but feels encouraged that 1t did
get unanimous favorable report from
the committees to which was referred
the various bills for their deliberation
and careful consideration.
We did hope to get through our
School Sanitation and Vital Statisti-
cal amendments, our amendments to
the Ellis Health Law, our Law against
advertising of patent medicines and,
above all, our law regulating the issu-
ing of Marriage License. This law
regulating the issuing Of Marriage Lii
cense, we think, is one Of the most
important that has been offered. 1t
is being urged as a safeguard to our
girls against infection Of Venereal
Diseases from their future husbands,
also that the future generations may
have the right to be born healthy and
free from being born blind from gon-
orrhoea, or deformed from syphilis.
Not taking into consideration the thou
sands of children prematurely born
from this infection.
The law that we advocate requires
the prospective husband and father
to present to the Ordinary, when he
makes application for his marriage Ii
cense, a certificate from a reputable
physician that he is free from Vene-
real Disease. What responsible man
can object to this? What argument
can any one advance against such a
law? What manner of man would
one be who would come out openly
and oppose the passage of a law that
will make it safe for his daughter to
marry? Who would oppose the abo-
litton of $50 of all abdominal opera
tions on the women of our cOuntry2
Who would object to preventing the
1919 of Venereally infected women of
our country who have contracted syph-
ills from their husbands being freed
of this likelihood to a large extent?
The thousands upon thousands of un-
born babies hold out their innocent
and helpless hands to US. Who will
take upon himself or herself the re-
sponsibility of the cry of the unborn
soul that will perish from syphilis.
Who will assume the responsibility Of
45%5 of the blindness found in our
State Academy for the Blind when it
can, and could have been prevented?
If you favor healthy nation, would
YOU not advocate this law that un-
derwrites the freedom from venereal
infection to our girls? Won't you urge
it? Please do.
