During the past year we have
done better than simply arrest the

great satisfaction of seeing marked
Improvement in a considerable num-
Der of these purely nerval cases, and
apparently a complete recovery IN
others. One young man who came IN

one hand so weak and deformed that

Circus Queen Is Injured
In Her Slide For Life"
Anne Paterson, SWINGING By Her
Teeth, Falls Fifty Feet. May
Prove Fatal to Victim.

AMEMRICUS, Ga.-While thous-
ands of spectators looked on here
last night Anne Paterson, per-
former with the Walter L. Main cir
cut, fell fifty feet and sustained in
juries which may prove fatal.
The woman, who was billed as the
Queen of the Circus, was about to
begin her "slide for life" when the
accident happened. She was being
lifted to the top of the big tent and,
swinging to a rope by her teeth, was
being moved upward rapidly. Sud
denly spectators realized something
had gone wrong. There was a crash
and the woman's body fell heavily
There were a number of guy pegs
almost beneath her and that she fail
ed to strike any of these is consid-
cred remarkable. The rigging which
had been fixed in the top of the tent
gave way, causing the accident.
Circus employees removed Miss
Paterson from the arena immediate.
ly following her fall. She was taker
to private car attached to the cir.
Gus train and attended by a circus
physician, who stated her injuries
are most serious. She had not re.
gained consciousness when the cir
Gus train left Americas following the
exhibition.

ALBANY SOUTH GA.
FAIR WEEK OCT. $3.50
HUNDREDS WILL co FROM THIS
PLACE TO THE GREAT EXPO
SITION NEXT WEEK.

Six big days and nights will be of
fered by the Albany South Georgia
/ fair all next week. 1t seems that no
work or money has been spared to
make the occasion brim full of en-
tertainment and education. Although
the fair last year far exceeded the
expectation of many, it is understood
from the MANAGEMENT that almost
every feature far surpasses the 1919
effort.
The auto races, which take place
October 80, are as good as are held
anywhere. The auto races and the
auto-polo come direct from the
Southeastern Fair in Atlanta. The
swine, cattle, horse, mule, sheep,
goat and poultry exhibit will be the
best. There are also seven agricul-
tural exhibits from Baker, Lee,
Worth, Calhoun, Mitchell and
Dougherty counties. The woman'S
work will be wonderful to see. The
trotting and running horse racing
will be the best. The most wonder
full circus acts you have ever seen,
shown twice daily on the free act
platform in front of the grand stand.
The concert band is one of the most
wonderful musical organizations to
be found, and this attraction is given
by the Royal Belgian Veteran band.
This band will give a delightful sa-
cred concert in front of the grand
stand on Sunday afternoon at three
o'clock, October 31st.
The officers are positive in their
claim that there will be no better
occasion of its kind held in the Unit
ed States. Neither money or work
has been spared to make this fair an
occasion which all South Georgia
will be proud of

SIX AND HALF MILLION
FARMS ARE IN AMERICA
More Than One Third Are Operated
In South. 31O737 in Georgia.

The number of farms in the Unit
ed States is announced by the direc-
tor of the census as 6,459,998, an in
crease of 98,496 during the last ten
years, as compared with the CORE
spending period ended with 1910,
showed a sharp relative decline, fall
ing off "a per cent as compared
with a percentage gain of 1919 in
1910, according to figures just an
nounced. No explanation was given
for the small increase of 1.5 per cent
in the number of farms, but officials
believe an abnormal migration of
country folks to the cities and the
discovery cf new oil deposits were
the principle factors.
Of the total number of farms in
the country more than one-third are
operated in the south, where there
are 2,636,106, as shown in the 1920
agricultural census. Two of the elev-
en- southern states showed declines,
while the remainder gained during
the last ten years.
The census bureau, for the infor-
nation of farmers, defined "a farm"
as a piece of land operated by one
person.
The number of farms in Georgia
is 31O,737, an increase of 8 per cent.

What Experts Say.
The limit of the official claim is
cot forth in a Joint report to the pub
liz health service made by DR.. j. l.
Mcdonald, director of the leprosy IN
vestigation station and superntenu--
ing physician to Kalihi hospital, ana
by President A. L. Dean, OF the UNI
versity of Hawaii, as follows: :.
ut has been sufficiently establish
ed that chaulmoogra oil contains one
or more agents which exert a mark
ed therapeutic action in many cases
of leprosy. We cannot say that the
disease is cured, since we have no
fest adequate to establish such YER
diet. Whether or not the apparent
cures are real and permanent, 1T is
evident that we have a valuable
agent at our disposal in the control
of the disease"
Chaulmoogra oil in its crude state
is no new drug for the treatment OF
leprosy, but in its raw form 1t prov
ed so nauseating and painful to pa
tients that it had to be temporarily
discontinued. Science turned toward
IFS derivatives and Drs. Macdonald
and Dean report ''it was found that
the ethyl of the fatty acids were thin
fluid oils lending themselves readily
to intramuscular injections and were
readily absorbed"
Injection of the oil derivative by a
syringe has brought new hope to
the leper, for at Kalihi hospital IN

tors report as an occasion for mer-

''The standard treatment the re-
port says, "now consists in weekly
injections of preparation which
consists of the mixed ethyl esters OF
the acids of chaulmoogra oil with 2
per cent. of iodine in chemical combi-
nation. The amount used starts at
one cubic centimeter and is gradual
ly increased to a maximum of four
or five cubic centimeters for adults"
Accessory treatments of iodine

are employed as measures to improve

GRIP.

Grip usually starts just the same
as cold with a watery discharge
from the nose. You are much more
likely to contract the grip when you
have a cold. For that reason when
grip is prevalent you should go to
bed as soon as you feel that you are
taking cold and stay in bed until
fully recovered, which should not be
long if you take Chamberlain's
