Indicative of the lessened volume

revenue which decreased 1920, 073;
or 5.94%e; passenger revenue which
decreased $1,310,662, or 1920;
mail revenue which decreased $462,-
532 or 50.42&s; express revenue
decreased $131,335 or 22.21fe, and
other revenue which decreased $780,
1856 or 15.48R. The total railway
operating revenue for 1921 was
$22,057,498 as compared with $685.
082,288 in 1920, a decrease of 49,
O24,789
This shrinkage of revenue was
overcome only by policy of rigid
economy in expenditures in all de-
partpents. There was greater eff
cheney in the operation of trains,
much saving of fuel, decrease in
force, fewer casualties and less pay
ments on account of loss and damage
to freight.
During the year the Interstate
Commerce commission reported
tentative final valuation as of June,
1915, for the property operated by
the Central of Georgia Railway Com
pany, of $79,083,523. This is $12,-
683,493 more than the capitalization
of the road. The Central of Georgia
operated 1913 miles and the capital
ization is therefore on a basis of less
than $4,000 per mile, figure which
includes not only right-of-way and
track but rolling stock and structures,
That this is a reasonable amount free
from "over-capitalization" on iva
tered stock" may be understood by
comparison with the cost of con-
structing mile of graded hard sur
faced highway.
During the year the company ex-
pended for additions and betterments
$2,042,085 which included 7 new
Mountain type locomotives and II
passenger train steel cars.

ly regarded as ''cotton carrying"

Passenger rates have been much
discussed during recent months, but
the report shows that the average
revenue per passenger was $1.35 as
compared with SLIP the previous
year, the increase averaging but 70
cents per passenger. Each passen-

of 4306 miles, as compared with
1915 miles for the previous year.

In some accidents no doubt the ped
estrian is to blame but when one
watches how the drivers of automo-
biles handle their cars in many cases
it is small wonder that there are so
many accidents. Some automobilists
seem to use Depot Road as a speed
way and many lively race has been
witnessed along this stretch Of road
These are not the only places where
danger turks but along Elkton avenue
and other nearby roads one takes his
life in his own hands when he at
tempts to walk.
All year round there is heavy traf-
fic on these roads, of farm produce
trucks and other commercial vehicles
and in the spring, summer and fall
this normal traffic is tremendously
swelled by pleasure cars.

been reached when the Town ane

PROCESS TO PURIFY
WASTE IN CANNERlES
May Be incorporated in Della
ware Establishments; Re-
suit of u. S. Experiment

The United States Public Health
Service announced the completion OF
experiments which will enable can
ners of Delaware and other parts OF
the country to rurify their waste,
that it may be discharged without
nuisance into small bodies of water
and streams. "The experiments be-
pan by the Public Health Service at
Farnham, New York, at the request
of canning company, after the COM
pany had found itself unable to OBJ
tain information from any source as
to methods of purifying its wastes"
saws the Government bulletin. This
factory, however, was burned while
the testing plant was under construc-
ton. and the tests were carried out at
a tomato-canning plant at Amelia,
Ohio.
"The wastes treated consisted OF
the liquids from washing down floors
and cleaning utensils and apparatus
and those from scalding the tomatoes,
but did not include tomato cores,
skins or pulp. The solids, including
the pulp, were hauled away and
ploughed into the grohnd. The vol
ume of waste treated averaged about
one-half gallon per No. 3 can Of to-
matoes packed $1,000 cans to the ton)
THE liquid waste was pumped to
settling tanks, in which about 85 per
cent of the solid matter held in sus-
pension was removed and the citric
acid of the tomatoes was largely con-
verted into Tactic acid.
"The solids separated into the set
ting tanks were disposed of on beds
composed of few inches of sand
resting on a shallow bed of cinders
An area of "a square feet will take
care of waste of this nature resulting
from each 1000 No. 3 cans of toma-
toes packed
"The ef1luent from the settling
tanks was run through a bed OF
coarse cinders 4.5 feet deep and later
through a bed of sand of the same
depth. The rate of filtration through
each filter was $4,000 gallons per day
"The effiuent from the sand filters
was clear and non putresible. Fish
lived for six weeks in small concrete
basins that were supplied only by the
Altered waste. Neither odors nor
other Objectionable features that
would initiate against the use OF
tanks and filters near the canning
factory were observed"

barn but their efforts saved several
surrounding buildings. The Ewing
house was not threatened due to the
fact that wind was blowing the sparks
in an opposite direction.
Corn, hay, fodder, feed, and other
grains valued at several thousand dol
lars were stored on the second floor
of the barn and the blaze had not long
been discovered when all of this was
destroyed.
When the Messrs. Ewing were seen
following the fire they could not esti-
mate their exact loss but they claimed
that it would be in the neighborhood

DID YOU KNOW THAT

Town Councils funds are very low
and this is one of the reasons that
many improvements that the Council
men would like to make about the
town are not being undertaken.
The proposed increase in electric
rates for the town is not meeting with
the APPROVAL of the citizens. But the
supplying rate has been raised on the
town.
Local citizens seem to be divided on
the question as to whether or not au-
tomobiles should be allowed to "buck"
traffic to pull up to gasoline stations.
Although several times warnings
have been given automobile drivers OF
their fast "work" on Depot Road they
continue to jeopardize the lives of
persons who must walk along this
road.
The young girls of the Town are
considering the organization of ball
club this summer.
The heavy recent rains caused
some cutters to flow over and as a
result many pavements, near the
curb, are covered with dirty black
mud.
Hunting for a house on Main
Street by it's number is like solving
Japanese puzzle.
The recent rains have made many
lots and yards in Newark resemble
marshes.

TYPHOID FEVER
REPORTED HERE;
VACCINE URGED
Health Department Says
Cases Undoubtedly Orig

gests ProphyIaxis.

Two cases of typhoid were re-
ported yesterday to the city and
county health department. Neither
case, it is believed, originated in
the city. DR.. O. c. West, director
of the health department, yester-
day gave out the following state
ment ..
y 1.-THE only safe procedure to keep
from having typhoid is to be vac
cinated. The health department
has repeatedly warned the people
of Albuquerque to seek protection
against typhoid. Yesterday two
cases of typhoid fever were reported
to this office and on investigation,
both give an accurate history of
being on picnic parties in the
mountain districts during the last
two weeks, and both patients admi!
drinking spring or we'll water in
those districts.

A great many of them are coming

some of them are sure to--be car
riers. These people always seek a
campsite that is convenient to

water is not the only source ot
typhoid fever. In fact, it is not
nearly as likely as the fly convey
ance. There is always an explosive
outbreak, that is an unusual num-
Der of cases at one time, where
water alone is the cause. Flies are
prevalent in great numbers around
camp sites and rural picnic grounds
which are not, as a rule, provided
, with sanitary toilets. There is
nothing to prevent flies travelling
freely, in such places, from filth
to food.
Typhoid fever will not spread or
become epidemic in Albuquerque
Or any other community where san
ttation is practised and where pub
tic health rules and regulations
Governing disinfection are en-
forced. But when people journey
into and visit localities over which
the health authorities have no adc-
uuate control, they should seek
every known means to protect
themselves. Why wait until some
one in your family contracts ty'
phod? See your family doctor to-
day and get vaccinated; it vii

whether to mountains or unknown
villages. There are times when we
