PREVENTIVE SUGGESTIONS.
Well Protection to Prevent Typhoid

The menace of typhoid fever in
country distri icts-a menace arising
from polluted drinking water-is
thoroughly considered in report by
Myron L. Fuller, of the United States
Geological Survey, in which the var
ious sources of pollution are indi-
Gated and suggestions are given for
means of protection.
Typhoid fever rates are usually
greater in the country than in cities,
despite the prevailing belief that
farms, isolated as they are from areas
of congested population, are ideally
situated for obtaining pure and whole
some water.
wells in farming districts is given in
the surveys report as the most COM
mon reason for their pollution. and
ignorance of the manner in whic h
ground water circulates is the cause
OF the faulty protection. Chemical
analysis is not rated high by Mr..
Fuller as means of detecting pol
lutcd water, for he asserts that a care
full common-sense inspection OF the
district is usually much more TO the
point.
Sources of pollution in the vicinity
of well or spring should be noted
wherever possible. and drinking water
should not be drawn except at safe
distance from them. The distance re-
qured for absol,.e safety varies
greatly with the character of the rock
For wells sunk in sandstone, slate,
and shale, 100 feet may be sufficient; ;
where the surface stratum is compos-
ed of fine sand 200 feet should be al
lowed; and where it is limestone or
granite much greater distances will
be necessary. Water may run pol
lutcd in limestone for miles so that
wells in regions where limestone
makes up the greater part OF the sur
face rock should be carefully exam
incd after rains for mud and floating
matter, for these are pretty sure indi-
cations of pollution.
For protecting wells, springs, and
cisterns Mr.. Fuller advocates, first
OF all, water-tight lining to keep
out surface water. Wells and springs
should always be covered and protect
ed from animals, dust and falling
leaves. Watering troughs should al
ways be located a safe distance away,
though the custom prevails in coun-
try districts OF having well and trough
side by side.
Mr.. Fuller's report is printed as
Water Supply Paper 2Ss. which may

The West and the National Capital.

The Mexican revolt is fundament-
ally and essentially inspired by the
same causes as the revolt in the Uni
ted States against the control of the
Government in the interest of large
aggregations of wealth. Diaz has
controlled the machinery of the Mex
lean Government in the interest OF
those who desired to exploit the Mex
ican people, to gain control OF their
natural resources, and to create con-
ditions against which the progressive
forces in the United States are now
rampant Mexico. with which nature
has dealt with lavish hand. has been
4 rich prize for which capital combi-
nations have strivcn and are striving
today.
Mexican reforms will be more cas-
lily achieved when the press OF the
United States ceases to treat the
Mexican revolution as a joke. The
struggle OF an oppressed and poverty
stricken people for freedom and jus
tice should not be regarded by the
citizens OF this Republic as 4 mat
ter essentially ridiculous. Yet the
press associations have conveyed dis
patches which referred to the opera
bouffe" war. 1t furnishes an addi-
tional reason why the American peo-
pie are turning more and more to the
magazincs.-John L. Lathrop, in
