TYPHOID IN WINTER.

This is not the typhoid season. but
any n who relaXes his caution against
typhoid by reason Of the season, is
likely to run into trouble.
~Fly-borne and vegetable-borne ty-
phoid is eliminated. Since oysters do
not feed when the water is cold. the
danger of oyster-borne typhoid is
about eliminated. In spite of the tenn
| %i.erature of the water in winter water
borne typhoid persists. In fact, certain
| weather conditions may increase the
amount of water-borne typhoid in
winter. For instance. a number OF
years ago, when the harbor at Cleve-
land would freeze over. The ice would
direct the eWage stream straight to-
ward the water intake. In TIE absence
OF ice the wind and waves protected
the water intake from sewage a good
part of the time.
Typhoid in winter is often atSpical
and diagnosed with difficulty. The dis
ease, winter cholera, from which Ger
| tain communities suffer in winter. is a
| form of typhoid fever. II a community
| suffers from Water-borne typhoid fever
| in summer and individuals take Ger
tain precautions TO protect themselves
in the warm weather, they should con-
tinue them IN cold weather. If the
| community c~hiorinates it must continue
to do so. If individuals heat h wa
ter, or distill it. OF drink distilled wa
ter, they must keep it up
Winter weather does not suffice to
stop Eailil-horne typhoid, though it de-
creases it. The December number of
New York Health News contains an
account OF two small epidemics Of ty-
| photo fever, which illustrate how milk
can spread typhoid.
In october, 1914. j. NJ. had typhoid
fever. He lived on a dairy farm where
13 COWS were MIXED. The milk was

milk OF 10 dairieS. Evidently j. M. re-
manned a carrier of typhoid bacilli. but
he did not affect the milk produced on
his fathers farm until the middle OF
the following June. Between July 6
August Is Is cases of typheid de-
veloped among the customers of the
milk Depot selling the milk from The
NJ. farm. Dr.. Sears, of Syracuse, and
DIR. Sawyer, of Auburn, satisfied them
selves hi the IS cases of typhoid in
Auburn were due to infected milk from
the Nj. farm. They stopped the milk
from the M. farm and caused the bal
ancc of the depot's supply TO be pas
tguriZed, w~hereupon the epidemic
stopped at once.
Another illustration of how pasteur-
@i2ation protects a milk supply was re-
ported by DR.. Sears. For three months
last summer w. u. G. suffered from
tvphoid fever and after effects due 10

producer, but the milk from his farm

those who actually ommit the crime.
Mrs. Mohr has been indicted as an &C
cessory before the fact. If you find
she hired, aided, procured or assisted
one or both of the other defendants, she
is guilty"
Judge Stearns then explained the de-
gree OF proof necessary to convict, say
ing:
A three defendants are indicted to-

rounding the negotiations is not any more grave than it has been,

short of an open admission of the ilegalty Of the Lusitania attack a
