PaTERNAnsM IN KANSAS

A step toward patcrnal government
for the sake Of improved health con
ditions has been taken by Kansas
Stirred by her success in Kidding hei
cities of typhoid fever. she now pro.
poses 10 duplicate the triumph In her
rural and town districts. No munici.
pality In the state may install wa
terworks system or sewer system
on It's own responsibility. The state
board of health must be consulted.
No sewage may De deposited in a
stream unless II has been treated.
What IN true Of town arrangements Is
true also Of arrangements in the
country. Farm wells arc being exam
incd, with the result that some of
them are closed This Is done In a
comprehensive way. Samples Of wa
ter from all over the state are ana
WED. and wells are sunk every few
miles for the purpose Of ascortaining
tho location Of water that is deep
enough TO satisfy fhc scientists and
Of an area sufficient for supplying the
region When such
source Is struck the farmers are in
formed of the depth TO which they

heaithful water. and compelled to
abandon unsnnitary wells. Within
year Kansas expects to finish the re-
noval of such sources of typhoid
lever, and to provide her farmers with
's good water as that In the cities.

Heretofore our manufacturers have
used foreign markets merely as a

duciion. At other times these mar

manufacturers have not adapted
their products TO the tastes and re-

have insisted that American STYLES
and standards should be accepted.
Nor have we conformcd to the

credits that are customary. And TO
