57,7S2. The death rate from tuber-
culosis is 1920 higher in the South
than in the Nation as a whole. One
reason for the exceedingly high death
rate in the South is the great preva-
lence of the plague among the negroes
who are especially susceptible to tuber-
c~ulosis, the death rate among them
being three and one-half times that
among the whites. But inasmuch as
the negroes will doubtless continue to
be intimately associated with the
whites in domestic and other work in
the future, the whites will never be
safe from infection until the negroes,
as we'll as the whites, have been freed
from the plague.
1t has been estimated that the to-

carrying on an educational work that
seeks to inform the public at large
through the printed page, as to the
danger of tuberculosis, how it can be
avoided and how, once it Is con-
tracted, its progress can be arrested
through proper sanitary measures at
home. Other phases of the educa-
tional program include the training
of workers inside the sanatorium and
occupational and vocational work for
patients. The extension department
is widely disseminating literature on
how to combat tuberculosis. An en-
dowment fund that is being created
for the institution will make possible
a much larger circulation of literature
and will also enable the institution to
take care of INDECENT patients.

In Il of the most extensive fights
that has ever been made by any re-
Igious body in America for the eradi-
cation of disease, Southern Baptists,
through their Home Mission Board,
have undertaken the task of combat
ing tuberculosis in the Is states com.
prising the territory Of the Southern
Baptist Convention. The first step in
this direction was the recent estab-
lishment on a tract of 143 acres at Ell
Paso, Texas, of the Southern Bap-
fist Sanatorium, where $500,000 from
the rs Million Campaign has been in
vested and where $500, 900 more will
be placed by the end of the Campaign
period. The institution is located at
an altitude of $500 feet on the side of
Mt. Franklin and commands an excel
lent view of the mountains of New
Mexico, Western Texas and Old
Mexico, whose border is only six miles
distant. Dr.. H. F. Vermillion is upper
intendent.
Included in this plant at present are
the administration building, the newly
completed women's infirmary and
mems infirmary, a heating and re-
frigerating plant and the superintend.
ent's quarters. Provided for in the
building plans for the future are a
medical and educational building,
nurses home, children's building,
dormitories for convalescent patients,
an occupational and vocational therapy
building, chapel, laundry and minor
structures.

MANY FAT PEOPLE
APPLY 10 COPELAND.
Fame OF New Yorker as Retiucer
Spreads Throughout the
Country.

! New York Nov. 17-A great many
fat people in the United States and
Canada avowedly want to become
thin. but don't know how. BY the
hundreds they have been confessing
this desire in letters to City Health
Commissioner Copeland. Their selec-
ton Of him as the person who might
take a great weight off their shoul-
ders was suggested by accounts of his
recent mobilization of reducing
squad Of fifty fat men and fifty fat
women in New York.
These hundred heavyweights have
been shrinking daily and the letters
from outside New York inquire how
DR.. Copeland does it. It's simple he
says. Proper diet, regular exercise,
and proper living habits are all that
is necessary.
You cannot be happy unless your
stomach is FULL" the doctor tells the
fat folks. Then he explains what
foods they should eat to keep happy,
eliminating all those which produce
fat. Some Of the foods they may eat
in abundance are celery, buttermilk,
ratdishes, endive, lettuce, toma-
toes, waterchess. clans, whites of
eggs, chicken without the skin, shad
white meat of lobster, Goldfish, pears,
apples, grapefruit, lemons, oranges,
rhubard lean meat and skinned
milk
''The greatest mistake people make
is in the selection of their food" DR..
Copeland contends. "The average
meal is poorly balanced. This is par
ticularly so of breakfast Imagine
wanting to get thin on a breakfast,
like this cereal and cream, hot muf-
fins with butter and honey, sausage
and possibly some fruit covered with
sugar. This entire meal is made up
of starches and sugar, which adds
flesh and very often as an added Of
Tense it is washed down with tea, cof-
fee or cocoa saturated with sugar.
DR.. Copeland lets his squad eat
fruit for breakfast, except bananas.
He bars sugar, prohibits white bread,
and opposes the drinking of wafer
with meals because that makes the
room and inclination for more food.
Cereals are all right, he says If
table spoon of bran is added instead
of sugar.
He recommends Swedish exercises.
But if the ambitious heavy insists on
his caliethenics being 100 per cent
American, the United States army set
ting up exercises are just as good as
any other. These can be practiced
within the privacy of the home pro-
vided the home is of sound construc-
tion and the neighbors pleasant. One
of DR.. Copeland's squad confided that
every time she began bending and
jumping there came complaints from
the occupant of the apartment be-
low.

Investigations show. Stomach exami-
nations show that they will find full

ue to the farmer as an insect eater
during the seasons when they rear
the young and at all seasons as weed

having an open season we would rec

CLEMSON HAS READY
BULLETIN ON WEEVIL
Danger of Plunging on Untrfed Crops
Pointed Out to Perp1exed
Farmers. -

Farming under Boil Weevil Con-
ditions" Is the title of Extension Bull
letin 4S, prepared by the Extension
Service of Clemson College and now
ready for distribution. The publica-
tion is being issued to help meet the
present conditions and is full of in
formation, instructions and sugges-
tions for farmers in. regard to best
farm practices Of the boil weevil.
Calling attention to the fact that
South Carolina is now having to face
the same conditions which other
Southern states have faced one after
another in the onward march of the
boil weevil. the publication stresses,
first of all, the Importance of learn
ing thoroughly the new methods and
practices for successful farming un-
der new conditions; and urges that
since there Is no single new crop
which promises to take the place of
cotton as our main money crop and
no combination OF crops which can be
recommended to all alike, our far
mers must expect to continue to grow
cotton and should undertake the grow
ing Of new money crops only on a
conservative scale. as plunging in
new untried crops will bring on pro-
blems as hard to solve as the prob
lens of growing cotton under boil
weevil conditions. Copies Of this
