Typhoid Fever

a germ which is carried from
one person to another by care
lessness, either by food, milk,
water or direct contact.
2. Typhoid fever means that
the person who has it got the
germs, directly or indirectly
from human excreta, (~feces) or
urine, into his mouth on food,
water or milk, most often car
ried by flies.
3. Every family should have
a fy-proof privy, with a metal
%container to prevent the waste
from running in cutters or on
the ground. The Board of
Health furnishes plans for privy
free, which can be built at very
little expense.
4. The waste matter from a
case of typhoid should be burned,
the bed pan carefully treated
with antiseptics, as the family
physician directs.
5. All wells should be cleaned
out, and dirt, better mortar,
banked high on the outside of
curb to keep seep water out.
See to it that the we'll at all
times is kept covered, and never
allow a person who is nursing a
case of typhoid to handle a well
rope. dipper or bucket.
6. Every body in the imme-
diate vicinity should drink boiled
or distilled or deep we'll water
only, if in doubt about your
water, send a sample to the
State Board of Health for ex-
animation.
Z. Do not eat or drink where
there is typhoid. The patient
should be carefully screened
against flies for the protection o:
others.
8. We occasional have ''ty
phoid carriers The patient VIII

by careless handling of food ma.
transmit the disease to others.

dangerous disease-carrying an:
