LEAK IN THE PORK BARREL

There will be no Democrats making
any talk about economy" on the
stump this fall, judging from the way
gossip is going in the Democratic cloak
room of both the House and Senate
Since it has been discovered that the
total appropriations for the present
session will amount to more than
81, 500, 900, 900 even the members of
that party are appalled,. 1t will be re-
called that only few years back the
Democrats were yelling their hesCs off
about Republican billion dollar con-
gress." Here in the first session of
the Gath congress they have broken all
records for public expenditures and
have appropriated in one year far more
than was appropriated in two years by
the Republican administration. This is
the way Democracy has economical. ;

snt, if publication is to be effected
Typhoid fever decreases in proper
ton to the increased installation of
means of sanitary sewage disposal, and
in cities it is in proportion to the in
creased abandonment of wells as q
source of drinking water. The introduc-
tion of public water system means
not only purer water but what is more
desira BILE modern devices for cleanli-
ness, such as baths, lavatories and
| laundries in the modern home,
| This is what Governor Locke Craig
of North Carolina says of running wa
| ter and his words are as true in Chill
ton and anywhere else in Wisconsin as
in the Palmetto state: ''If were ask
ed to name what, in my opinion, is the
most desired utility of modern life, l
would not name the Tailroad, nor the
telephone, nor the electric light, nor
the automobile, essential as they are,
but / should name running water in
cleanliness, health and comfort than
any other Improvement that modern
civilization has brought us. 1t can be
had, too, with little cost. There is not
farmer OF moderate means in North
Carolina who cannot with economy
have running water and sewers in his
home and this would contribute more
to the health and comfort of his family
than any other Improvement. The
house fly and the mosquito a,e deadly
enemies of our people. They can be
guarded against with slight expense.
With running water and screens, any
home, however humble, can be clean
and comfortab BILE and healthy and the
people who live in it will be cleaner,
more comfortable and more healthy"
From public health standpoint, the
deep well appears to furnish the best
and purest drinking water. Bacterial
ogically, such waters are nearly free
from bacteria of any kind, and colon
bacilli present in any quantity are an
unmistakable indication Of danger.
Shallow wells usually furnish a clear
and sparkling water but this should
not be construed as an indication of
purity. The shallow well draws its
supply from the Immediate surround
ings and is subject to aid contamina-
ton in the vicinity, except as puriGca-
ton results from the natural passage
of the water through the soil.
1t will readily be seen from what has
been said that surface pollution enter
ing at or near the top of the well is by
far the most common means of well in
lection. The most treacherous of all
shallow dug wells are those in lime
stone rock, because, by the gradual
solution and removal of the lime stone
by the passing water, it becomes poss-
bic for the water to travel great dis
tances through passages or assures
without undergoing any publication.
Since limestone, unlike sand, has no
filtering action on the water. There
fore any kind of a shallow dug well
which derives its supply from lime
stone rock must be regarded with sus-
picion.

PURE DRINKING WATER

The necessity of pure water supply
Is primarily q health problem. The
people of each community are interde-
pendent. Each is responsible to the
others for what he does that may effect
their welfare. Hence, where anyone
fails to provide safe water facilities or
sanitary method of disposing of his
household waste, that person becomes
liable for the safety of his fellows.
The case of typhoid fever ia little
cottage up the river may bring death
and disaster to the community down
below. The unscreened house, the
open oistern, the overfo wing cesspool,
and the case of malaria across the
street may be the indirect cause of
years of sickness in your own house
hold
Nowadays the pbycians, health Off
GERS, public officials and some others
are utilizing every avenue of publicity
TO impress the need of working to-
gether for the conservation of the
health of the community.
There is well-known quotation in
public realms to this effect: Public
health is purohasable; within natural
Limitations community may determ-
inc it's own death rate" This is espe-
cially true of such diseases as typhoid,
dyssntary and cholera, which are usu-
ally spread by means of contaminated
drinking water. Most communities,
large or small, drink surface water. In
such water there is always greater OF
less opportunity for fecal contamna-
tion. In many of the cities bordering
on the Great lakes, for example, the
sewage is poured in at one point and
the drinking water taken out at the
other, usually not fap apart.
The city of Ashland used to pour its
sewage into Chequamegon bay, from
which body of water it also drew it's
drinking water in spite of frequent
warnings from the health authorities.
The result, deferred but inevitable,
happened, when, in 1s93-94 disastrous
epidemic of typhoid fever broke out
A filtering plant has since been estab
lished.
In addition 10 large epidemics like
this, scattered cases of typhoid fever
and other enteric diseases occur fire.
quently in small communities, and
Chiffon as not escaped them. In
fact, typhoid fever is so common in
some of our cities that our senses have
become so dulled to it's eccurance as is
the case in regard to incidence of tu-
bsrculosis.
In towns situated along rivers, those
nearer the head waters of the stream
begin the process of pollution. They
withdraw their drinking water al one
end of the town and pour back their
sewage, frequently at several places
along the river front. Thus each sue
ceeding town utilities water which is
increasingly polluted with sewage.
In few countries is the typhoid rate
so high as here. Periodic interest is
aroused in this matter, but cities that
supply diluted sewage as drinking wa
ter must expect to reap what they
have sown.
The answer to the riddle is simple:
Adequate inspection, sewage disposal,
alteration of polluted waters.
As a city grows from small begin
nings it invaribly developes some kind
of sanitary conscience. City water
Is often bad enough, ana sewage sys-
TENS are defective; bat these oondi-

Why not try the experiment

Why not try the experiment of indulging in praise and com mendation instead of fault find ing and criticism. By commend ing that which is good in our midst we might unconsciou3ly stimulate desire in our own minds to improve that which is not so good, in order that it, too, might be commended and praised. The bitterest and most nauseat- ing pill is rendered pleasant and agreeable by a little coating of sugar, and might be even so with the rough spots in our daily ex- istence. Every great ending has had it's origin in a small begin ming, and a few humble words of praise might produce results while hours of abuse would fall upon deaf ears.
