ORANGE HEALTH OFFICER
DISCUSSES TYPHOID FEVER.

"A lecture was delivered last night in
Philadelphia before the American Philo-
sophical Society by ]. s. MacNutt, health
officer of Orange. The subject of the ad-
dress was rs Typhoid Fever Rural
Disease?a In the course of the lecture
Interesting facts were brought out. The
saving "Typhoid fever is a rural disease"
and the kindred phrase vacation ty-
Bhoids (meaning typhoid fever contract
ed on country vacation). have long
been a part of common speech. This
view, held generally by many physi-
clans, is erroneous.
Taking Massachusetts, New Hampshire
and Connecticut as examples 1t has been
found that in no sense Is typhoid fever
IN those States a disease of the country.
1t is on the contrary. fostered by the
closer association and greater danger
OF Infection from food and drink which
arc found in centres OF population.
A striking fact brought to light Is that
although typhoid fever is not now chiefly
rural previous to 1880 or thereabouts
the situation was reversed

SuIky Pulls Harder.

The ordinary sulky plow cut

because the sulky frame holds

The walking plovs will ride over
hard places and twist and wig-

some extent, but the Sulky plow

pull any harder, for the light
