It has also been reliably reported that between five thousand and six thous and of our people die annually from consumption and that thirty thousand others are afflicted, who will ultimate ly die, unless they tecieve proper care and attention The medical profession has dis covered that tuoercolosis is caused by a specific germ conveyed in the sput um of those afflicted, and is therefore preventable, with proper care and supervision. With a view to the suppression of this wide spread scourge, it has been commended by the Kentucky Tuber colosis Comission, as well as by the National Assosiation for the Study and Prevention of Tubercolosis, that we hereby set apart December 3rd to 10th as Tnbercolosis Week. The physicians of the State are also requested to assist in the medical in spection of the school children of the various, schools on medical inspection day, In order to discover children suffering from tubeicolosis and to prevent the infection of others with whom they are associated.

A. Flan OLD KAINTUCK ' GOING DRY Old Kaihtuck, the land of fair women and fast horses, not to men tion the whiskey, is going dry. The very broodmares in the meadows are looking over the fences and whick ering in amazement. The recogniz ed journalistic leaders of the whiskey interests have declared that a vote is inevitable at some time and the con test may as well come now. The sentiment of the state is overwhelm ingly dry but is held in leash by the fear of displacing the large amount of capital invested in the distilling business. The result of whiskey domination in this state has startled Kentucky citizens Blessed with a beneficent climate and a wonderful limestone soil which grows everything from grain to brawny men, possessing a beautiful landscape which ranges from majestic mountains into the roll ng pastures of the bluegrass, the land of the colone's, and kernels should yield to no state of the Amer ican Union in the happiness and prosperity of its citizens. But the state is cursed with an overshadowing, brooding curse which blots contentment from the picture of her prosperity, The two penitentiaries at Franklort and Eddyville are filled to. overflow ing. The distilleries which mar the little valleys and send a telltale wreath of smoke over the summits of the mountains are grinding anarchy out of independence, poverty from humble plenty. Thefued has been found to worm its deadly length from the moonshiner's bottle of "corn juice " The 1910 census sobered the people of the state by starthpg revelations that, despite the lure of the far-famed bluegrass, the popu lation had increased only slightly, while "other Southern states were forging ahead in the night. Education has been hampered by wapt of funds yhich have been yielded an unwilling ripute. to the liquor' trust. Legit) mate business is being gradually choked to death by the whiskey oc topus which controls the city banks and holds capital in its unproductive grasp. The people groan under an in cubus the like of which is not known in antoher state of the nation. Kentucky is facing such a cam paign of liquor falsehood as has never been before witnessed. It will require splendid organization, an army of workers, and constant, well-placed educational publicity to win the state for prohibition but with the proper campaign victory is inevitable.
