(From Advance Sheets of the August Bulletin of the State -Board of Healtlu) Typhoid ferer is present in seventy re of the ninety counties reporting for July. It Is therefore widely preva lent in our State. It is a communicable disease, spreading from one case to another, though generally in a rounda bout faah.on. Its extension can be pre vented by the careful observance of certain simple rules. For the informa tion of the people we give these rules, preceded by a statement of the reasons upon which they are based. If read and he'eded by even' a few some lives would be saved and much sickness would be prevented. Read them and tll about them. 'The active agency in the causation of typhoid fever is a bacterium', the ba-illus typhosus, which attacks and causes the ulceration of certain glands in the small intestine, developing therein by myriads. They are there fore to be found chiefly In the bowel discharges, although present also in the excretion of the kidneys and to some extent in the expectoration' of a person sick with the disease;. From one ' tLesc sources, nearly aiways tbe first named, the bacteria are transfer red to the latest inal tract of a healthy person. The poison is always swallow.-. ?, The most common agencies of transfer are the drinking water, in cluding milk infected from washing cars in polluted water, and the cVfcii Koa house fly, although it may be con veyed directly to the' nurse br, her own toiled handsana 'Soinctimes in dust. The most important rules therefore for the. prevention of the extension of tho disease may be briefly stated as fol lows: ' 1. Cover immediately upon their pas sage tlie body discharges to prevent access of flies. 2. As soon as possible thoroughly disinfect the discharges by mixing in equal quantity with thern one of the following: (a)' freshly made milk of ikne or "whitewash" (unslaked lime); (b)'a five per -cent solution of carbolic acid; (c) a 1 to 1,000 solution of corrosive sublimate; (d) a 1 per cent, solution of formaldehyde. After standing a half-hour (covered all the time) the mixture should be buried (never thrown on the surface, of the ground) at a distance from the well qf not less than 150 feet. ' ' -3-.-Provide- in the sick-room a wooden tub one-third full of either of the three last named solutions, and drop therein as soon as removed everything In the Way' of body or bed-clothing, handker chiefs, towels, etc., that have come In contact with the patient, and keep them submerged until they can be boiled, washed and dried in. the sun. 4. All remnants of food that may for any reason 'be carried into the skk rooai must be burned. 55. The nurse; should wash her hands and dip them into one of the solutions, preferably- corrosive subllnjate.,' after every "changing" : of the 'patient. She should never draw 'water from the family well unless a pump is used, l.u ease it should be absolutely necessary she Simula disinfect her hands as above before doing so. -.'6. Tho soiled linen of tbe -paUent should never be washed ai- or near t:-,; J well or spring. The -greatest ore shod-' be observ-td to preve4;:,t the linage or j seepage through the soil 'Info th" wc-U or spring from accumulation of filth ol all kinds. As soon as a case of typhoid fever appears in -a family all drinkins water should be boiled until a report .... ,i. . ,,. ,lo,I f,.f,, hn mi lliv mint' van -'-'-,t ... .,, . .. j State ibcloeist. tne tamiiy pnjsman making application to the SecrVtary of the i'o'.rd of Health for permit and sterilized bottle. 7. As the germ is present in the in testine in the preliminary stapes and for several weekst after covanlesccnee is established and the patient practical ly well, extra care of surface privies should be observed. Every evacuation should be immediately and completely covered with lime or dry powdered earfli. '.' ' Summary. Prompt disinfection of alfc-dlsearges from the body of the pa tient; protection of the same against flies; special care as' to the drinking water; scrupulous cleanliness. Russia Makes Demand.
