Prevent Tvnhoid Fever.

The following report by the United
States geological survey will be inter-
esting to every household:
THE menace OF typhoid fever In
country districts - a menac arising
from polluted drinking water-is thor
oughly considered in a report by My
ron L. Fuller of the United States
geographical survey, in which the va
rious sources of pollution are indicated
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.
Failure to protect adequately the
wells in farming districts is given ic
the surveys report as the most COM
mon reason for their pollution, and ige
norance of the in which ground
water circulates is the cause OF the
faulty protection. Chemical analysis IL
not rated high by Mr.. Fuller as 4
means of detecting polluted swater, fos
he asserts hat a careful common,
sense inspection OF the district is us.
ually much more to the point.
Sources of pollution in the vicinity
Of a we'll or spring should be noted
wherever possible, n drinking water
should not be drawn except at a safe
distance from them. The distance re-
CURED for absolute safety varies great
ly with the character of the rock. For
wells sunk In sandstone, slate, and
shale, 100 feet may be sufficient; where
the surface stratum is composed OF
fine sand, 200 feet should be allowed;
and where ii is limestone or granite
much greater distances will be neces-
sary. Water may run polluted IL
! limestone for miles. so that wells in
regions where limestone makes up the
! greater part of the surface rock should
be carefully examined after rains for
mud and floating matter, for these are
| pretty sure indications Of pollution.
"FoX protecting wells, springs, and
cisterns Mr.. Fuller advocates, first OF
/, all a 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 country
districts OF having well and trough
side by side.

crew, as she heard, Of fifty hands. The
smallness of this did not surprise me.
Here was q ship which rarely went into

there were scenes passing all words to

THE YOUNG BRIDES
FIRST DISCOVERY

Their wedding tour had ended, and
they entered their new home to settle
down to what they hoped to be one long
uninterrupted blissful honeymoon.
But, alasl the young brides troubles
soon begin, when she tried TO reduce the
cost of living with cheap big can baking
powders.
She soon discovered that all she got
was a lot for her money, and it was not
all baking powder, for the bulk of it was
cheap materials which had no leavenina
power. Such powders will not make light,
wholesome food. And because of the alb
sence of l%eavening gas, it requires from
two or three times as much to raise cakes
or biscuits as it does Of Calumet Baking
Powder.
Thus, eventually, the actual cost to
you, Of cheap baking powders, is more
than Calumet would be.
Cheap baking powders often leave the
bread bleached and acid, sometimes yell
low and alkaline. and often unpalatable.
They are not always of uniform strength
and quality.
Now the bride buys Calumet-the per
fectly wholesome baking powder, moder
ate in price, and always uniform and re-
liable. Calumet keeps indefinitely, makea
cooking easy, and Is certainly the most
economical after all.
