YAKIMA IS DECLARED
WORTHY EMULATION
Report of DR.. Lumsden, Govern.
ment Expert, Who Sends His
Report on for Revision

The head of the local health office
Is revising the manuscript of the re.
port of Dr. l.. L. Lumden, of the
United States Public Health and Ma
rine Hospital Service. on the typhoid
investigation in North Yakima, in
which the government official declares
that North Yakima has demonstrated
the effectiveness of reasonable and
practical measures for the prevention
of typhoid fever, and has furnished
an example most worthy of emula-
ton by every community in Yakima
county, in the United States and in
the world where this preventable
disease is highly prevalent.
This report, which tells the results
of the campaign made in North Yak
ina and the county under his direc-
ton, will comprise 10000 words. 1t
includes recommendations already
made to the city by the doctor and
admonishes it to maintain the
strength of the health department so
with reasonable adequacy its duty for
the preservation of the health and
lives of the people of North Yakima.
VI recent work or the CITY, the re-
port says:
THE city government is to be COM
mended for the steps which it has
taken recently to have the irrigation
bitches in the western section encased
and to have drainage canals con-
structed for the purpose of prevent
ing the periodic flooding of the city
with subsoil water. 1t should be
stated, however, that, strictly from
standpoint of typhoid fever prcven-
ton, it would be much less costly and
much more efficacious to prevent the
dangerous pollution of the subsol
and the irrigation ditch water by
putting into and keeping in sanitary
condition the privies and cessspools in
the western of the city
