In speaking with one of our promi-
nent physicians last evening about the
health OF Reno, the doctor said that to
some great extent the fevers that have
been prevalent for the past lew months
can be accounted for in the manner OF
irrigation carried on by the owners OF
residences. He said that while the wa
ter could be blamed to some extent,
still the irrigation proposition should
come in for its share of criticism. Ii
the people would use more care in the
planting of gardens and lawns they
would find a great decrease i'll the sick
ness of their household. In the first
place the ground about the residence
should be made to slope away from it
to such an extent that the water would
be carried off. Then, again, there
should be no lawn or garden stuff plant
ed near the house that requires much
water, fer ii it is SO planted and unless
there is a heavy slope from the resi-
dence, the water seeps in under the
hbuse until the ground there is simply
atswamp and in most cases the cellars
are very wet. This, the doctor claims,
is one of the principal causes of sick
ness, and although it is but a simple
matter, it should be given strictest at
tention.-Gazette.
