The greatest aid to health authorities in preventing the spread of a con- lagious disease is its early recog- nition. There is -one contagious disease which, unfortunately, is seldom recognized in its early stage. It is cuberculosis-. This disease at times reaches an advanced, stage before unmistakable symptoms appear. Meanwhile, however, the disease may be caught bor others. Mean- while, too, the individual may be losing his health, for the chances of recovery' from,'tuberculosis are greatest when the disease is found early. Tuberculosis can be found early through means of chest X-rays. It every adult had periodic chest X- rays every new case of the disease would be: found early, before the- individual had lost his, own health and before he had spread the dis- ease to others. Because of the danger which tu- berculosis presents to the indi-' vidual and to the community, an organization was formed here ten years ago to spread information about the' disease and how it can be controlled.

The program opened with the novelty, "Grandfather's Clock." Ai- though we all know this number, we were pleasatuly surprised, as the band had it in three different a-riangements. During the course .of the program tlI ~tudleiif direc- tor, P. B. Fairley,' came to the stand to direct the band in the march, "Fighting Irish." Timothy. Elder, second cornet, played the stirring hymn, "Beautt- Cul Garden of Prayer," capably ac- companieid by the band.

The opportunity for more agri- cultural expansion to meet the state's market lies in two fields, the growth and development in the . livestock industry itself and in the growing of feeds. The state fails by two-thirds the hay and three- fourths the grain requirements to feed its livestock. .' The production of meat animals in the state has shown a marked increase in recent years yet ap- proximately one hundred twenty, six pounds of beef, pork and lamb must be brought into the state annually to feed the resident anc tourist population. Last year eighteen million dozen eggs were produced in Florida and almost as many brought in from other states. The consumer demand for poultry meat in Florida was filled by less than half by the 1,000,000 pounds, dressed weight. of poultry produced in the state. At present milk is brought into Florida but previous to the war the state was producing all th.- fluid milk it consumed. Produc- tion last year stood at 341,415,000 pound's of milk and 36,800 pounds of butterfat, both in addition to home consumption on the farms. All the chee-se, most of the butter and sweet cream is imported. The manufactured products of the livestock industry are legion andt range from fertilizer to poul- try feathers. Since industry fol- lows either markets or raw nma trials, there is an untold oppor- tunity in Florida for the establish- ment of manufacturing plants stemming from the livestock in- dustry.

Our Country 7- Right or Wrong LOOK BEFORE YOU SHOOT The cracking of rifles and the boom ot -shotguns will be heard in Gulf county Wed- nesday when the fall hunting season gets un- der way and hunters are urged to take a good look at the game before they pull the trigger. Remember, in your haste to acquire a syl- van pot roast or a liberal supply of hamburger, that deer don't wear red, that they walk on four legs and do not resemble a man in any way, shape or manner. The most critical deer, we believe, would agree with us in accepting the accuracy of this statement of manifold di- vergence. A deer, for instance, is much more graceful than a man even a man who has .been taking rhumba lessons for three months. -And remember, too, you nimrods, that a deer has never started a forest fire with a match or a cigaret. And a deer, of course, has neyer served up a man, with currant jelly and sprigs of parsley, even at a stag banquet. In fact, the ways in which deer differ from men are so many and so acute that we see no rea- son at all why there should be a single hunt- ing season accident in Gulf county. A THOUSAND YEARS TO GO Are you concerned about the nation's oil resources? Well, you might as well put off your worrying for, according to oil experts, there's no danger of a shortage of crude oil at least until the year 3026! There are many reasons why our oil re- serves are expected to last for an indefinite period. For example, large additional reserves of crude are constantly being found through- out -the United States. In fact, with all the test holes being put down right here in Gulf county, the latest being the one about six miles south of .town now being drilled by the The Low Down from Willis Swamp Editor The Star: This here country is champion' at the bit to git going Everybuddy Is wantin'. sumpinF-automobeels, sew- in' machines, sheets, ice boxes. And with all this here bizness in the offing, and wages higher'n a cat's back, they is more and more pickets. Guys marchin' back and forth and forth and back and de- mandin' this and that. Something' is haywire in Den- mark and mebbe they is a 'skunk in the woodpile. They is confusion in the land. I bin looking' under the kivers to see what's there-and who.- and why we're on dead- center. And, you know, she don't look so complicated matter all. And to boil it down-and in a nut shell -anti in a few words, it is too durn much guvamint in our diet. That's what I deducts from my research. With 2 million more'n normal on Unote Sambo's back and payroll, it ain't hard to savvy that some odd dishes will be cooked up-and the soup foozled. We would go to town again iffen the guvainint would keep Its nose Pure Oil Company, we wouldn't be at all sur- prised if this section.was found to be an oil- producing area. The development of produc- ing areas in Latin America and the Middle .ast should result in a vast amount of the black gold. And discoveries of ways to obtain oil by synthetic means are of increasing im- portance. For instance, one company recently developed a method of getting crude oil from shale, which was turned over to the U. S. Bu- reau of Mines, patent free, for use when and if necessary. This goes back to the saying that more oil comes out of the laboratory than out of the ground. The enormous progress in the tech- niques of extracting and reclaiming oils from the crude product has in itself added billions of barrels to our potential supply. So don't worry about it-at least for a thousand years! "HOUSES FOR VETS" FAILS The new commander of the American Le- gion, Col. Paul H. Griffith, advises veterans not to buy or build now, saying that they can- not afford, "in this period of inflation," to take on the, responsibility of $10,000 for a p4000 house. The American Legion official says that the aw\v. establishing veterans preferences and pri- orities turned out to provide only "licenses to hunt materials." During the war, he points out, pribritiies were extended back to the manufacturer but, in connection with vet- erans' homes, the priorities do not go back to the manufacturer, who can sell to whom he pleases. The "true facts" of the "deplorable situa- tion" will be given to the public shortly, as- serts the colonel, who says that "we are all to blame-the government, the states, the communities, civic bodies, business. industry and labor." We are" quite sure that many veterans will be interested in any steps that will improve what seems to be a failure to.,provide houses for veterans at reasonable cost. Just how this is to,be accomplished, in a free market with- out governmental controls, escapes us, but we are in favor of anything that will make homes available to homeless veterans, at rea- sonable cost.-Gadsden County Times. Turkey's recent statement that she is ready to fight on five minutes notice has caused Olin Miller to comment: "In an atomic war that would be just three minutes after the war was over." The latest rumor going the rounds in Wash- ington, we understand, is that Secretary Krug is going to ask the owners to seize the mines.. outen things and its foot offen the brake. Also start just bein' the um- pire agin, and' not try to play first, second and third base and be the pinch hitter, head usher and umn pire all at the same time. Yours with the low down, JO SERRA.
