ED IN FACE OF GOVERN
MENT CAMPAIGN

Reduction in typhoid fever and
improvement in sanitary conditions
have followed the intensive invest:-
cations of rural communities car
ried on by the United States public
health service in cooperation with
local and state health officers, az
cording to the annual report of the
surgeon general of that service. Dur
ing the past fiscal year 1860 ru-
raj homes in eight different states
were visited and many of them re-
visited. In each of these homes in
formation was obtained as to the
prevalence of disease and i%nsanitary
conditions and q complete sanitary
survey of the premi-,s conducted.
This was followed by ~roinspection
to determine if remedial measures
had been instituted. In but a rela-
lively small percentag. Of the eases
did the persons concerned, after
having their attention drawl to the
danger of a particular unhvgienic
condition, fail to inaugurate Correct
i've measures. Stimulus was given
20 the work by means Of p,tlic
lectures, the formation of active san
itary organizations. ard the enlist
ing of all public spirited citizens IN
the campaigns for reform.
Public buildings were also in
spected and local authorities given
expert advice in solving such san
itary problems as the disposal of
eXcreta, the p~i,vCnticn of soil pol-
luton and the main ,enance of pure
water supplies.
The surveys made duriag the year
1914 had shown that in rural COM
munities less than l per cent of the
homes had sanitary toilets and that
more than so per cont of the peo-
pie were usira water from %colluted

New York, April 13.-The most ab- sorbing topic among the National league baseball fans is, Where will the Giants finish this season? Will they rise out of the depths of last place and make Q fight for the pen nant or will they wallow into depths of the cellar again. This question can be answered correctly at the end of the campaign, but now it is a guess. Manager Johnny McGraw says so himself. For one to predict that the Giants will win the pennant would be to defy all laws of discretion and in all things we are discreet. A herculean task confronts McGraw before he may again win the right to lead his team into battle against whichever combination wins the

"Cy" Mcdonald, who once held the managerial reins in Hartford for Jim" Clarkin was in this city yes terday afternoon and in a discussion with local friends he forecast a suc- ccssful season for the 1916 race in tho baseball world. The outlook in the now Eastern league which includes the city where he once held the power Of release and signing, is also bright to Cy. Tn 1ayoff of the past season mas tended to strengthen the interest in the game.
 The matter of placing an independ- ent team in Waterbury which "Chlef Miller and MT.

It is understood that some of the factories in the Brass city are to start on a three eight hour shift, which afford more opportunity of fans witnessing the games.

He may not even bat 300 in his new league. But he will prove a valuable asset, without doubt.
