TYPHOID VACCINE FREE.
of
is
to
The State Laboratory of Hy
giene announces that it is now
ready to distribute, on request,
typhoid vaccine free to the citi
zens of North Carolina. The
Laboratory trusts that only
those citizens who expect to use
it will request the vaccine, but
the Laboratory is very anxious
that as many of our citizens be
persauded to take advantage
the State free vaccine as it
possible for our in'fluence
reach.
Now do not get the idea, be
cause we are giving tne vaccine
away, because it will cost you
nothing, my fellow citizen, that
it is without value. Vaccination
against typhoid fever has passed
all the tests of science and prac
tice and has won as permanent a
place among sanitarians as vac
cination against smallpox.
in a very tnorougn review o
the results of ': anti typhoid vac
cination in the Journal of the
American Medical Association
under date of August 30, 1913
Major Frederick P. Russell, of
the medical corps of the United
: States Army, presents such con
vincing facts and figures as to
leave this question of vaccination
against typhoid fever no longer
a matter of opinion. In the last
four years over 200,000 people
have been vaccinated against
typhoid fever; no bad effects
from the vaccination have occur-
ed. Among the 85,000 vaccinal
ed men in the United States
Army, located at different posts
in the United States and her col
oneiies, there has not been i
single case of typhoid fever since
December 6th, of last year
There have been fewer cases of
typhoid fever among the vacci
nated soldiers than cases of
smallpoxamong the soldiers vac
cinated against smallpox. The
opinion among sanitarians at
present is that typhoid '. vaccina
tion is as effective as smallpox
vaccination.
The vaccine is in liquid form
and is administered, hypodermi
cally, being injected either into
the tissues of the breast. ' The
discomfort because we can not
call it pain- of -the injection is
practically the same tai' the in-'
jection of various forms of medi
cine. Any doctor can administer
the vaccine. The Tacrine is in
three doses, which, have to be
given on three sepefcae .'days,
five days apart. , In i com ten , to
15 per cent of the cases 7 there is
slight swelling and redness, and
a little pain about the injection
lasting for a day or so; associat
ed with these local symptoms is
usually a slight feeling of indis
position, vague, dull aches simi
lar to the preliminary symptoms
of a cold, and, maybe, from a
half to a degree of fever- The
second injection is not nearly so
likely to be followed with these
sensations as the first, and the
third injection still less likely
than the second to be associated
with unpleasant sensations. The
protective power of typhoid vac
cine lasts for four years. The
protective power not only pro
tects against, the contraction of
the disease but,' in those excep
tional caes where the disease is
contracted, protects. to a consid
erable extent against a fatal out
come, a kind of double protec
tion.

tertains the hope that those
counties employing whole time
health officers .will have! their
officer arrange certain dates in
the county, town or other con
vment places for citizens to
visit, where any citizen the coun
ty can be vaccinated, without
cost, either for typhoid , fever or
for smallpox. If the', health of
the human animals of the coun
ties are worth anything from s
purely economical standpoint in
the production of cotton and corn
and wheat and meat, thereby in
creasing the value of land, and
by all this adding to the wealth
of the county treasury through
the taxes that are levied.

would seem to be a very fine
piece of business for the owners
of this productive source, of
wealth, for the . county govern
ment, particularly the county
commissioners, to spend the
small sum. necessary for this free
public vaccination in the mainte
nance of their human machinery.

In publishing the article by
Professor Poght concerning the
Mountain people of East Tennes
see and Western North Carolina
in last weeks issue of The News
Record our only purpose was
that the people of the county
who had not read the article
might have an opportunity to
read it and pass upon its contents
as well as upon Professor Foght.
We djd not think when we pub
lished the article, nor do we
think now, that any person
the county can justly complain
that it appeared in these columns
though we are informed that
there have been- criticism be
cause of its appearance in. this
paper and that our motive for
putting it in the paper has been
questioned, all of which, we are
frank to say, the facts do hot
warrant. The article was first
publibhed in Missouri, then in
the News & Observer of this
State, No person,' so far as we
have learned, ' has questioned
either of those papers for printing
the article. It was an attack up
on the people of Madison Coun
ty and we felt that it ought to be
resented and that its writer
ought to be denounced. In -this
our feelings remain unchanged
The people demanded, its publi
cation and we were glad to pub
Iish it and make no apology for
having done so.
to any person wno nas any
defense to make for Professor
Foght or to any person who
wants to put the stamp of ap
proval upon the lies he published
upon our people wo HERE and
NOW offer such person space in
this paper in which to set forth
his argument.
There was no intention on our
part to hurt the feelings of any
one or to stir up strive between
the local churches and we1 are
somewhat surprised to hear that
this has been pointed out as our
motive. There is plenty of both
work and room here for all the
denominations and the combined
strength and efforts of all are
needed for the advancement of
thecause which they represent.
We have, never been guilty of
carrying around in our breast
such a desire but - on the other
hand we feel very much like tha
boy who courted his sweetheart
for months before he could tell
her that be loved her. When he
did finally break the news to her
she said, "John, I have loved,
you alfUhis time and have just
been waiting for you to tell me
first." Whereupon John arose
and walked to the door, opened
it and looked up to the sky
sprinkled with stars and said,
''O! Lord, I ain't got nothin agin
nobody."

To accomplish the most in agricultural development, we must begin
with the man behind the crop. Upon him depends the final working out of
the principles of agriculture rthe simple and practical things which our.
schools, colleges and experiment stations are endeavoring to bring Into gen
eral use.
Professor Holden proposes to carry these principles further even than
the very effective, work done on the agricultural trains, by using that most1
modern vehicle the automobile Agoing directly to the people on their own
farms where the' meetings are to be held. .
Alfalfa Greatest Soll-Enrichlng Crop.
Agricultural development needs in addition to the work of our publlo v
Institutions, the Individual efforts' of every merchant, banker, corporation, or -laboring
man, and this plan calls for their heartiest co-operation.
,Thls plan for increasing the Yields of our crops by the more extensive v
growing of that wonderful soil improver, ALFALFA, is meeting the approval
of all men who have any knowledge of the beneficial results of Its introduc
tion as a general crop. t . j , i -
