DEATH FROM TYPHOID
Is SAME AS SUICIDE

If the average for the past
four years is maintained this
year there will be in North Caro-.
lima during the month of June
more than five hundred cases OF
typhoid fever, ann one in each
seven OF the persons having the
disease will die. That this record
of past years shall not be main
talned is the determination of
the State Board Of Health, which
is bending every effort to reduce
the typhoid death rate for 1918
materially from the rate Of last
year. There has been a crafty
ing reduction for each of the
past four years, and the State
Board Of Health has set 500 as
the maximum for this year.
Working toward this end ac-
tive anti-typhoid campaigns are
being waged in a number of
counties. Typhoid vaccine is be-
ing furnished free by the State
Laboratory Of Hygiene, and in a
number Of places is being adj
ministered without charge. A
number of counties have taken
advanced steps in sanitary Iegis-
lation that will greatly aid in
preventing the spread Of the
fever germs, A death from
typhoid is a useless death, and
the realization Of this fact is
causing Widespread interest in
the methods cf prevention.
The greatest hapdlcap to the
fight against typhoid is the com.
mon fly which breeds in filth and
carries the germs Of the disease
far and wide. The records show
that the disease rises and falls in
direct ratio to the fly season,
reaching the maximum in August
when flies are most plentiful,
and falling to the minimum in
March when the flies have been
frozen out through the cold win
Ter months.
