IMPORTANT DUTY OF
A GOOD HE|GRBOR
IN CONTAGIOUS DISEASES, RIG
I'D QUARANTINE is MORAL
OBLIGATION
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
ALONG MILK ROUTES
Milk is Apt TO be Handled Careless
ly On Farms Where Supervision
Is Lax

Every family which has a member
i'll with typhoid fever, scarlet fever
or other contagious disease, is entitled
TO the sympathy and intelligent help
of the community At the same time,
the stricken family should realize fully
that simple good citizenship calls upon
its members to do everything in their
power to prevent the spread OF the
contagion to neighbors. In the coun-
try especially where there are seldom
health officers 10 impose rigid quar-
antines, the duty of keeping the sick
separated from the well falls with
peculiar weight on the afflicted family.
Ordinary neighborliness demands that
such a family keep it's members away
from others and prevent outsiders
from coming in contact with the infec-
ton.
On farm producing and selling
milk, a contagious disease such as
typhoid fever demands special pre-
cautions. A very few germs Of these
diseases allowed to get into the milk
may multiply rapidly and be a source
of disease in many families on the
milk route served by the farmer.
Belding banner. (Belding, Mich.) 1889-1918, 1914-11-04

OF the milk was due directly to its
handling by inexperienced persons.
Investigation proved that the farmers
illness was one succession Of cases OF
typhoid that had occurred on this
farm. The probability, therefore.
was that the milk being sent out be-
fore the farmer was sick was danger
ously contaminated, while. OF course,
the risk after illness had withdrawn
his attention was vastly increased.
In many cases where an outbreak
OF typhoid has been traced back TO
dairy the owner was not deliberately
careless Typhoid fever is not always
readily recognized as such, and not
uncommonly passes simply as a fever
or bowel complaint. For this reason
every case of fever on a dairy farm
should b regarded with suspicion and
lead TO very careful handling OF the
milk.
Members of households in which
there are contagious or suspicious
illnesses also have an important part
to play in keeping the milk supply
clean. They should never return
empty bottles without first boiling
them, and any family which takes
public milk bottle into a room where
there is a contagious disease is really
a party to a serious offense against
public health. A milk dealer who
learns of a case of sickness in a family
should keep the bottles from that
house separated from the others and
make certain that they are very care
fully sterilized before they are again
used for milk.
Even where there is no sickness on
a farm, the dairy farmer should use
every effort to produce a high grade,
clean milk from healthy cows. Steri-
lization of bottles and other milk yes
sells is essential.
Belding banner. (Belding, Mich.) 1889-1918, 1914-11-04

In the case of typhoid the disease
may come from germs in the well
water, and this water if used unboiled
for cleansing milk bottles or cans may
very well start typhoid epidemic in
neighboring town. Inspectors have
frequently traced outbreaks Of scarlet
fever and typhoid along a milk route
and back to a sick person on the pro-
ducer's farm.
1t is the duty Of every milk farmer
to see that no one who is suffering
from fever Of any kind ever enters the
dairy Moreover, no one engaged in
nursing the sick should ever be allow
ed to go near milk. Those who handle
the milk on such farms, even though
they never have been near the person
who is sick. should take special pre-
cautions. Before entering the milk
room they should put on a clean cap
and n clean buster, which are never
allowed to go into the house. In cases
of typhoid or suspected typhoid all
water used in cleaning milk vessels
should first be boiled. Finally, even
with all these precautions, wherever
typhoid or scarlet fever is even sus-
pected in family, the milk should
be thoroughly pasteurized before be-
ing sold.
The milk producer who takes these
precautions establishes his good citi-
Zenship. The one who handles milk
carelessly with sickness in his family
Is. though he may not realize IL, n
possible enemy to his customers. Such
precautions are doubly necessary
where the owner OF the farm is the
sufferer, because the milk is apt to
be handled carelessly for lack OF his
supervision. Inspectors recently fol-
lowing up n case Of bad milk found the
owner of the farm sick with n bad
case Of typhoid fever. He gave his
illness as reason for his not being
prosecuted because the low quality
