SHALLOW WELLS CAUSE MUCH
OF THE SICKNESS IN
INDIANA.
RICHMOND NOT CRITICIZED
Percentage of Wells in City
Small Liberty's Bad Water
Is Pointed Out.

Richmond's percentage Of shallow
wells from which drinking water is
obtained, is very low when compared
with the number in other cities Of In
diana and for this reason there are
fewer cases Of typhoid fever or other
diseases, having their origin IN con-
taminated drinking water.
After a careful analysis of two
hundred samples Of water gathered
from different parts of Indiana, Prof.
III. f. Barnard. chemist for the
State Board of Health, finds that the
well water of the state is "bad''-
so bad that it is no wonder typhoid
fever prevails to an alarming extent.
Richmond does not come in for critl-
cism.
The two hundred samples of water
examined were brought from private
wells over the State. The shallow
wells were found to be the worst. OF
this class the chemist found 90 per
cent unfit for use because of pollu-
ton by sewage, barnyards and out
houses. The analysis showed that
Of the wells extending through what
is known as the "impervious lay
err so per cent produce pure water.
The examination of water from the
wells in one particular city of the
state showed a wretched condition.
This was the town Of Liberty, where
typhoid fever ragged last summer.
The laboratory Of hygiene, of
which Prof. Barnard is in charge, is
engaged in getting information re-
garding the pubic water supplies of
the State. and the same careful anal
ysis will be made.

SCOTS Emulsion is
"the easy oil easy to

Tribute Of Respect

Twcnty-ninc years ago when, with
our parents, we came to Pennington,
strangers in strange land, one Of the
first to extend the hand OF welcome
was the late Mr.. I. + Dalton. He
never inquired our politics or how
large our bank account. His was the
hand Of friendship, and that remained
unbroken until the end. In the many
years we did business with the firm Of
Dalton & Marks we found and were
treated with that courtesy that only
true gentlemen show We will never
forget the sympathy and kindness he
showed TO us in the many trials and
troubles we have had. Miss him, yes,
we will miss, but we feel that we are
better for having known him. We
can shed the sympathetic tear with his
dear wife and daughter, aud say with
them, "we, too, have lost a friend. ="
We pray God to sustain his dear ones
in this, the greatest trial that has come
into their lives. L. NJ. c.
