Death Rate Reported For This
State Has Been
Greatly Reduced
Raleigh, Dec. the death
rate in North Carolina has been re-
1.2 since 1911, It is still
higher than the average in Hit Unit-
ed Stales according to figures com-
plied by the Vital Statistics Bureau
and given out by the Slate Board
Health yesterday. These figures are
only for towns of or more.
these it would seem that North Caro-
total death rate was 18.3 par
in 1911; 17.3 in 1912; and 17.1
in The need of more and bet-
health work is indicated by
fact that the average death rate in the
registration area of the United States
is only per 1.000 as against 17.1
in North Carolina.
Upon examining the death rates for
the various causes of deaths, the
chief source of our high death
is found to be due to preventable dis-
such as typhoid, tuberculosis,
diarrheal diseases among children
measles and whooping cough,
the old-age diseases, our death
ls lower than the average in the
United States.
As an example of our death
take typhoid fever which is over
times the average. Three times a
many people die from measles and
four times as many from
cough as are due to die. Our tuber-
death rate is per cent high
than the average in this
To be more specific we have
deaths every year from this
disease than we should have, and what
Is more significant every one of
5.300 deaths from this disease are as
unnecessary as the useless deaths now-
occurring on the European battle-
fields. Pneumonia is responsible for
needless deaths and diarrheal
disease among children 3.000 and
on down the list.
Our death rate seems to he about
seventeen per cent higher than the
average for the United Sates,, but It is
slowly decreasing thanks to our
adoption of improved health methods.

Roman Harvester Still
The ancient Roman as
used for threshing, may still be seen
in the Island of Cyprus. It Is a board
about six feet long and two feet wide,
studded with sharp-edged flakes of
flint. In use It Is dragged by oxen or
donkeys over the corn spread out on
the hard earthen threshing floor,
rating the grain and at the same time
bruising and chopping up the straw.
Threshing time is enjoyed by children
and animals, the former riding on the
Implement, and tho latter
gorging themselves with a hearty
meal, for In Cyprus the Biblical com-
shalt not muzzle, the ox
that out the is still
faithfully observed. Although the gov-
offers to thresh by machine
at nominal cost, the conservative
prefers the old method. He
says that the animals will not eat ma-
chine chaffed straw, and straw they
must eat, for there Is no hay In
the Wide World.
Big Snake Too Friendly.
Awakening to find something
about her arm, Miss Hazel Joseph,
who lives at Jim Run, In the

off and ran Into another room, return-
with a lamp. The light showed
a big snake stretched across the back
of her younger sister. Loretta, who
occupied the same bed.
Hazel's screams awakened Loretta,
who shook the reptile to tho floor.
Their father, hearing the noise, came
and killed the snake. It was a black
racer more than six feet long.
