THE TYPHOID SEASON

The polishing of plates with the
napkin before use, unconventional as
such a practice may be, is advised in
all dining rooms where flies are abun-
dant, because those insects are prob
ably more abundant In the pantry
where the plates are washed and dried.
Almost invisible contamina ting ma
terial may be deposited during the
brief alighting of a fly that may have
recently emerged from garbage or
offal receptacle. Screening of all win
dows and doors not only promotes
comfort but prevents access of these
pestiferous carriers of infection to the
kitchen. pantry and dining room. An

parties may explain the incident. An
abbreviated vacation or a troublesome
transfer to a more wholesome locality
may prove an economy of time, money

life When in doubt depart, is a good
rule in these circumstances.
When the reorganized state health
board shall devote most of it's activities
to the rural districts, as is done III
Germany, for the purpose OF tracing
every case of typhoid fever to it's pos
sible source, as is now done in the
cities, the health authorities of the
latter will be spared this labor, be-
cause the disease germs will be ex
cluded. Several years ago a New York
physician stated before the milk com
mittee that he had visited the large
Johannes hospital in Dresden. Find
ing only two cases of typhoid fever
in this enormous institution, he learned
upon inquiry that the German govern
ment officials are so alert in the dairy
districts that no source of infection can
escape them. On his return to New
York two weeks later he saw during
the first week two private cases of
typhoid fever and three In a hospital

Ferdinand of Bulgaria when his forces were

hand and Roumania and Turkey on the other
hand began to march against him, appealed 70
France for Intervention, and was met by guarded
statement, the purport of which was that the SIX

CtanislauS Starts Right

At the request of the county board of trade
the Stanislaus supervisors have agreed to
appoint commission to prepare plans and cost
estimates for comprehensive county system Of
good roads.
The appointment OF the commission is but a
preliminary step to the submission of proposition
for s., 100000 good roads bond issue.
The supervisors could adopt better method
of nsuring popular approval OF scheme which will
return handsome profit the county
1t is no longer necessary to spend time or
money convincing such progressive people as those
of Stanislaus county that good roads a good
investment.
Popular appreciation of the value of good roads
was convincingy shown by the vote in approval
of the state road bond issue of S1S0OOOO0 athered
by former Governor Gett
1t is necessary, however, to show the people how
and where their money is going to be spent. The
people have right to know and the experiences Of
the state highway commission have convinced
them that it behooves them to know before they
authorize big bonded debts
From a commission composed OF their own
neghbors the people OF Stanislaus county will get
comprehensive system plan, reinforced with prac-
teal estimates.
Discussion OF that plan may result in desirable
changes before the scheme is formally submitted
for popular approval al the polls.
Whether not such changes are desired or
made, the people will know what they are voting
about when they go to the polls. They will know
definitely where their money is TO be spent and
approximately what they are going to get FOR il.
The wisdom of the Stanisaus plan undoub edlv

Napa County's Crops

The crops in Napa county, for the
most part are better than usual. This
is particularly true in st, Helena and

Some varieties of fruit are scarce, but
the prunes, while the crop is not very
large, bids fair to make up in size and
price for any shortage. The grape
