Public Health is of paramount im portance when 120 per cent of our popu lation are physically defective. Homo Hygiene and Care. of the Sick must be imparted or health in the home im paired. Iustrnction in Nutrition aud Child Welfare must be maintained as a matter of self interest. First Aid in struction to many million has not yet covered the need. Disaster Relief must not be neglected : we are pledged to meet emergencies.

Nov. u.*- Denouncing u? "slackers" till those Democrats who .refused lo take part in the campaign to elect Governor Oojt, officers <>f tJClQ Democratic National Committee made public here today an official "black list" of distinguished IVmocrats lu? eluding many intimate advisors of the administration. who it Ntfttcd, Ctiji expect neither support nor favor from the present organisation. The list contains names of Democrats who had no campaign to make on their bohhlf and who re foxed to help when apjs'iil was made to them on behalf of the national ticket. It does not In* elude Democdatle candidates who had cnmpalgnk In their own states. The committee h'as also prepared a "white l!st," which contains the names of those who did all in their power to aid the Democratic candidates in their nwu states or elsewhere. Pojstmajitor General Albert Svilne.v Burleson. one Of the prlneipal ad ( ?VtaiiijH in Provident Wilson. heads thej "Mack list.*' He Is said to have taken no part In the campaign after Cox de feated William Gibbs MeAdoo in the invention. Burleson was one of Me nu Adoos strongest supporters William Jennings Bryan comes next on the list. The committee failed to obtain a single speech from ldm dur ing tin- campaign. ? Others listed by the committee are Senators Gore, of Oklahoma : Reed, of Missouri: Walsh, of Massachusetts; Swansbn, of Virginia : Carter Class, of Virginia: Smith and Harris of Georgia: Dial, of South Carolina; Slnimoiis and Overman, of North Carolina: Smith, of South Carolina and Secretary of the Treasury Hous ton. All the members of the feder al trade commission and the federal, reserve board are Included. The "white list" includes the names of practically all the members of the ea bluet, except Burleson, Senators Hitchcock, of Nebraska ; Pitt man, of Nevada ; Walsh, of Montana ; Under wood, of Alabama ; Uohlnsour ,ot Arkan shs; Nheppard, of Texas; Stanley, of Kentucky; Harrison of Mississippi; Klrby of Arkansas-? Pomereuo.of Ghlo ; Homer Cumrolngs, William G, MeAdoo, B^urke, Cochran, and the following members, of, the house: I trough, of Arkansas; Garrett, of Tennessee; Byrnes, of South Carolina; Connely and Bee, of Texas ; Shell, of South Carolina; Goodwin, of Arkansas; McClin'tOck, of Oklahoma : Aswell, of Louisiana and Stevenson of South Carolina. , The publication of this so- called "black list" Is -especially significant at this time in view at it precedes a meeting called by the insurgent Demo crats to discus# plans for the re-organ ization oL (ho Democratic party. Some of those whose names appear on the "black list" have been mentioned as ? v 'tmong those who will attend the con ference. When Mr. Bryan was asl**d to en ter the campaign 011 behalf of Gov. ernor Cox he flatly refused to do so except on condition that the presi dential candidate pledge himself to appoint only such men to office as would faithfully carry out the Vol stead act. Governpr Cox did not ac cept this condition. The announcement of the reor ganization plans has aroused bitter antagonism among officials of the national committee, who declared to day they will fight to the utmost to prevent any disarrangement of the present organization.

Month to Prune Scuppernoags. Those. who have scuppernongs which they contemplate pruning this season should hoar in mind the fact thot this variety of grape must be pruned this month or by the middle of Deocmbcr. If being train od to a trellis the vine will need special attention in pruning. If being trained to a trellis the vine ing will be necessary, but the impor tant fea-ture is to provide space for the vinos on the arbor without crowding and falling off. , All fruit trees should be pruned now and those which have scale should have an nppllcation of strong lime sulphur this fall well as early next spring before the buds begin to swcQi. The mound* whieh were built around the peach throes last July should be torn away now and the borers should be taken out. Every farmstead should have n well cared for home orchard. The Ooumty Agent will bo glad to assist anyone in making orders for the best varieties of fruit for this section as well as M give advice in care of same. Those contemplating putting out fruit trees should order their atock immediately in order to get the best which nurse ries have to offer. ? J John. W. Sanders, County Agent. Deaths in ' the County.
