health department. by more generous ap-
propriations from Congress should be en-
couraged in the work it is accomplishing

tary conditions in Washington. a good
start has been made by the installation
Of the filtration plant, as the result OF
which the water supply is fairly pure.

sumers. The article. he said. should be
certified as coming from d dairy under
proper sanitary control.
