BY DIR. W. B. M'WHORTER.

tient should be in a room by himself.
Only those should be allowed in the
room who have business in there. All
vessels should be kept separate, and
be properly disinfected after each
use. The nurse should disinfect her
hands after touching patient. All tow
els, sheets, ETC., should be kept sepa-
rate and boiled as soon as removed
All discharges should be disinfected
before being poured into sink or bur-
led. All this sounds very complex, but
is really very simple.
1t is the duty of each physician to
report every case to the health Off
Ger promptly. 1t is the duty of the
health officer to visit each case and To-
cate, if possible, any local cause for
the disease and advise whatever sani-
tary improvements that may be neces
sary. 1t is his duty to cooperate witt
the physician in charge in preventing
the spread of the disease.
The health officer alone can not
eliminate typhoid fever from any 10
cality. He needs the cooperation OF
tie physician, the community, and the
assistance of those in authority. Wher-
ever possible, surface closets and wells
should be abolished and health laws
should be enforced without fear or
favor.

Prevention of Typhoid Continued.

In the preceding article anti-ty-
phoid vaccination was discussed. a.
La preventive measure, it is harmless
and almost 1000 effective. No on4
who is well informed on the subject
will deny this fact. If properly given
II will not produce any sore on the
arm or cause anw disease whatever. It
is simply insurance against typhoid
fever. 1t will prevent typhoid an
nothing else. That is all that is claim
ed for it. AS soon as it is practiced
by all people, we shall be able to
speak of typhoid fever as a thing of
the past.
While the results of typhoid inocu-
laions as preventative measure can
no longer be questioned, this artificial
method is not recommended to take the
place of general sanitary improvements
such as good water, clean milk, fly
suppression, cleanliness and personal
hygiene. Both measures Should be us
ed in conjunction
From a sanitary standpoint, the pre-
vention of typhoid fever resolves itself
down to safe disposal of human sew
age. The germs of typhoid fever are
found nowhere else in nature. Out o.
fifteen cases of typhoid recently re-
ported to me by local physicians, four
teen of these showed surface closets
and surface wells in close proximity.
In all cases where thessymptoms are
suspicious of typhoid the family physi-
clan should be called in early. 1t is q
serious mistake to delay proper treat
ment
All cases of typhoid and all suspect
ed cases should be more or less iso
lated. BY that we mean that the pa.
