DEATH RATE : ON INCREASE Vital Statistics Bureau Releases Figures For Half Year RALEIGH, July 22 -The numb er of deaths from preventable ac cidents in North Carolina contin ues to gain momentum as the year advances, official figures compiled by the S(tate Board of Health show.

These do not include suicides and. homi cides, which are holding their own. During June 35 people in No- th Carolina took their lives, which was 15 in excess of the number in the corresponding month last year. There was an increase of one in the number of. homicides, the June, 1941, total having been 33, as compared with 32 for the cor responding month last year. Accidental drownings last month totaled 27, as ' against only 18, in Junei T940, while II were burned to death, compared with 8 in June, 1940. Last month's total number. of deaths from preventable accidents was 145, an increase of 23 over the same month in 1940. June's 7,493 births brought the total number for the1 first half of 1941 in North Carolina to 41,937, an increase of 2,115 over the cor responding period of 1940, while the 2,635 deaths brought the total for; 'the. first half of this year o 17,059, which was 27 fewer than died from January through Jane, last year.- .

B. SLAGLE Tax Collector for Macon County Simple Test For Egg Freshness Explained An egg is a sealed package of fine food when it is laid by the hen. It is the ( only product that Nature gives us that is sealed without the touch of human hands. "However," points out T. T. Brown, extension poultry of N. C. State . college, "eggs that bring a premium on the market are those that the comsumer desires eggs that are. fresh, large, clean, uni form in size and color, and sound in shell. Most consumers will buy the more pleasing-looking product, but their continued purchases de pend upon the actual interior qual ity of the eggs." A sirrfple home method of de termining if eggs, are fresh is suggested. Place eggs in a pan of water and the good ones will rest on the bottom of the vessel; those that have lost some of their qual ity will stand on end; and very poor ones ' will rise somewhat, Those that rise are older or poor ly kept.. An egg does not have an air cell when it is laid by the hen. As -it cools, the water evaporates from it and the two shell membranes at the large end of the egg sepa rate and form an air cell. In hot weather, moisture is drawn from the egg, just as water is drawn from the soil and from all vege tation .The depth' of the air cell is a measure of quality in eggs. "One of the most important steps ' is rapid cooling of eggs. Eggs, when laid, are about at the body temperature, of the lien, which is 106 degrees. They must be copied rapidly to about 68 de grees to keep fresh." . of whooping cough, an increase of 11 over last June. One death from rabies and one from tetanus occurred in North Carolina last month, while appen dicitis deaths went from 19 to 229. Maternal deaths, however, showed a decrease of 9, bringing the June rate down to 5.3, as compared with 6.7 last year. There were three typhoid fever and three malaria victims during the month, while tuberculosis deaths showed an increase. No deaths resulted fwra -endemic ty phus fever, undulant fever, small pox or scarlet fever. Join Now Potts' Burial Ass'n.
