GREAT CRIME OF CIVILIZATION Greatest Ideal is One Which Leads to Betterment of Mankind By E. Paul Knotts. M. I)., Health Officer, Orangeburg County. The greatest'ideal that can inspire and direct any body of people is that one which leads to the betterment of humankind. This complex life which civilization has developed for ws, may summarilv ho HiviHpH certain distinct phases. Without intention of being arbitary, one might say that man's life i? essentially the sum of his mental, moral and physical well-being. In the consideration of theso vital factors we will see that one is neglected in large part. the development of the minds of /(.he youth of America, great advance-iment has been attained coincident -with national standardization of the aes?t?ntial factors in education. Our public and private institutions of learining, while far from ideal, do .tneet the emergencies of our present 'day social, economic and political life and in the main are satisfactory to greater mass of the people. From our earliest intelligence starts our religious training. The first complicated sentence taught the infant is usually a prayer. The sects, creeds and organizations are in groat numbers and well oganized. While the /A v civilization has not l?rought w;th it tho pinnacle of morality vet it is obvious that the field of religion is crowded with men and women of zen] and ability and with /'time they will ?volvo The greatest isM'.o which man has to face. Now th?ro remains Ibnt I vuv 1IVSIIItllll which is nurelv physical. Since no is e^en comparatively complete <-.()r well rounded if this phase is not "properly con.- ider^d, and since moral ?d>f! ^eptvl well being are in large jpv.rt dependent upon the physical status 'of the man, we cannot give too y-.v*. * consideration to such an important lector. Now the physical side of man is we1' within that domain of the profes>?Mch deals with the curative 'art.. Yet the hopes of medicines are not confined to the treatment of the individual Unfortunately, the physician has too Ions treated the individual after he has fallen ill to some dread disease. This is exactly opposite to the plan to aboHsh ignorance >md vice "Wo do not wait until one Is an adult to begin an education or to teach religion. We do in all cases nftre for the individual cases hut the idea w to prevent ignorance and vice by early instruction. Yet in connection with that all important factor our health, the idea has never successfully pervaded the public mind 'That this is no fault of medical men }<ofcs without saying. The public get? 'exactly what they want. Unfortunately .we are not gifted with a health cor 'Science. Religious training gives \ii the laws of morality; the State give? certain laws regarding our re la t-ion to our neighbor, but our body out health, is ours to do with as w< choose, and if we mistreat it we d( Dol suffer either the anger of the lav of the land nor twinge of conscience Civilized people have ben content t< pass anti-spitting laws in pub Hi l M fl. r ?!l1' ' .v.wiiik c*wuy wiiii puouc arinK img eups and laying down certaii regulations concerning contagiou; n&J*/>ases'and then to sit hack in snuj sfcatinaction that they have done ; Very wonderful thing. It must b j?id netted that these regulations ar prolific of great good and are trul commendable, yet they represent onl tYie AUG of preventive medicine. The great war has taught us man Ac*>-sotj8. Perhaps the ones whic *vill give to posterity the greater irood are entirely medical in considei jiVhw Preventive medicine, as a{ i>]ie<t to large groups of people, hn Jbeen shown definitely and conclusive Sy. -j' '<> he an ideal dream of sorr visionary idealist, hut a potent an ftpp'icyliVj principle. The public, get rrall.v speaking, is always a numb< ?f years behind science and more e; pecially medical science. The mo: striking example of this is shown t the fact that the miasmic theory fttill held by thousands of people, coi f i MBMm i ^ '; THi cerning the cause of "fevers." Yet the time is surely ripe to expose such fallacies to the very individual and to get his cooperation as one of the mass, to assist in the removal of the real conditions which do cause "fevers." As a matter of fact the time is rapidly coming when the indi-. vidual cannot pass judgment on these | matters. The freedom of the "land of the free" does not allow one to maintain anything which may be or is a menace to his neighbor's health j or happiness. Increasing density of population and the swift readjustments of civilization to changing conditions and modes of living has i caused rnc older individualism of AmI erican life to surrender to collective i <?? social modes of control and action, j This transaction is not affected withj out '.i struggle. No one gives up a j privilege, even though it be odious, ' without a protest. Yet we have seen such vast and embracing movements sweep across all opposition, such as national prohibition, woman suffrage, j compulsory education and many other things as important and affecting the daily life of th<* individual. Malaria, hookworm, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and infant diarrhocl I diseases are the big headliners that are ravishing the life blood of our great country. All these are absolutely preventable. Then is it not a mo*t terrible crime to allow them to exist ? Too long have we tolerated these dread conditions. Our supineness constitutes an offense against nublic welfare that is measured bv human lives. Since we know that each of the conditions persist and increase because our individual homes do not have proper sanitation a??d cleanliness, the crime comes to each home. We may find homes that are surrounded with aM that miv o-vonf civilization has developed for tho comfort of man and one that is an embodi ment of culture and luxury. In the back yard of that home we too often find conditions that do not come up to common decency. Perhaps the one great force that operates against the correction of such conditions is the intense conservatism that pervades that home. Familiarity breeds contempt and that family has been accustomed to live under these conditions and their fathers and their father's father did so and since comfort is not materially increased in proportion to the labor expended we would find that in -many cases the family would not only not cooperate in removing the condition, but would 'resent the inference that their fathers had not been decent and that they in turn had not exercised intelligent propriety in the maintenance of their J establishment. The point at issue is that one need not point at the poor jand so-called ignorant as the harborlers of diseases and bad conditions, I they can be found on Mr. Rockerfeldts I I nlaco as woll ao nn ??- ?i I. ? .. ?uii fjvKji ouiui s piace. I Statistics concerning the incidence I of the various diseases and the toil ; I of human lives each year, T regard i'as out of place here. Yet to the stu,|dent, he knows already; to the intelligent thinker I would invite him to in.' vestiurate; to everyone I wiM decide 'that the gauntlet is thrown down for i you to take up. The solution is obvious?it is found in the establishment and maintenance of a competent public health organization. The work of this organization to he somewhat t as follows: the dissemination of knowledge of public health; the hole' Hinics and demonstrations for public good and enlightenment; to0visit the individual homes and to prevent the occurrence and 'spread of contagious diseases; to maintain a continuous child welfare work; to deal with the i appropriate health issues peculiar to the community; to do all that medical r ir-nce h:>- learned can lie done tc , make the life of the individual heal : bier and happier.

L. M., Pine wood. T would suggest that you plant thr\ following named varieties if you are " rowing fruit for local market: Mayflower, \'amie Riss, Greensboro, Carmen Belle of Georgia. and F.lberta. There is more demand for the Belle of Georgia and Elberta than for the earlier varieties, therefore, I would plant more of these. If you are growing peaches for shiping t the northern markets, then would he hotter to confine your planting to Hiley, Bell of Georgia . nd Elberta. Tell mo about the varieties of Kotundifolia grapes.?W. J. K.. !<"'oronce, Ala. x Tho J^ies with us is a yery fine grape. The Flowers is of poor qualtv, but on account of its being *xtra lato I bolicve it should have a place in every variety vineyavd. It i- good for preserving: purposes but not good as a dessert variety. The Eden is the most prolific variety we have ever grown: snm - vik; bushes have as many as sixty or iroie borries. The LaSalle has done exceptionally well and 1 belisve is one of the best in quality, but it is not so prolific as some of the others. Please Rive advice on the use of bone meal.? T. S. L., Society Hill. Rone meal contains approximately 22 percent phosphoric acid while the commercial acid phosphate usually has only 10 percent phosphoric acid. I believe you will got just as good results from the use of acid phosphate in combination with nitrate of soda, cottonseed meal or dried blood as your source of ammonia as you will from the use of bone meal. I would suggest that you use a fertilizer analyzing about 8 percent phosphoric acid. 5 percent nitrogen, and 4 percent potash instead of bone meal alone. Please advise me in regard to de'troyinp earth worms.? E. B. H., Holly Hill. The earth worm may be easily destroyed in pots and boxes where you are growing plants by applying strong lime water. Take one pound of stone lime and slack in a small quantity of water; then dilute to three gallons of water and pour a tumberful of this solution in each pot. In a few minutes you will notice the worms will come to the surface and will turn light colored. o TRESPASS NOTICE.
