the number of new typhoid fever cases
will be noted within a few days, after
Possibly. within ten days or even
less said Dr. Woodward, typhoid

two weeks after the use of filtered
water the records viii undoubtedly show
an appreciable decline in typhoid fever.
This has been the record OF other
cities where filtration plants have been
installed. If the filtration plant can be
put in operation by the last of this
month II will have a wholesome effect
in checking the spread Of the fever dur
ing the month Of September. which was
the month the maximum was reached
last year.
"On September %. 1904, the number OF
