AID in FIGHTING
TYPHOID FEVER
Or. Greene Calls Attention to Number
of Deaths From Dreaded
Disease.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April %
+ (SpeciaD--I a letter to the citizens of
/ Florida, DR.. Ralph N. Greene, state
| health officer, brings most forcibly to
their attention the number of deaths
resulting last year from typhoid
which were much less than amp prev
ious year, and asks the cooperation of
the public in still further reducing the
morality from this disease. The let
| ter from DIR. Greene is as follows:
ITO The Citizens of Florida
1.-The number of deaths in the state
Hast year from typhoid was much
smaller than in any of the three prev
ius years, and only slightly more than
one half the number in 1913. The
state board of health asks your coop
Grafton that we may still further re-
| duce the number of lives SO needless
ly thrown away for typhoid is an alb
solutely preventable disease.
THE only cause of typhoid is the
| typhoid bacillus, and this organism
only leaves the body in the discharges
chiefly feces and urine, but in smaller
numbers in the spitum and perspira-
| ton. The only way we contract ty-
phoid is by taking into the mouth some
of the discharges of typhoid patient
or typhoid carrier.
1.-THE great majority of these car
riers are persons who have recovered
from the disease but few have been
| found who have no history Of disease.
Each of you can assist in saving lives
by insisting that all excreta be so dis
posed of that it is safe, and this means
that when sewers are not available, all
privies must be sanitary and fly
proof"
TN this state, the fly plays a great
part in spreading typhoid for they
breed in filth and are equally fond of
the privy, kitchen, and dining room
Where privies are not fly proof, the
fly that walks on the bread and sugar
or that takes a. bath in the milk pitch
er, may have just come from a feast
there and as they carry material on
their feet, bodies and wings, you can
readily see what a menace they are.
1.-THE state board of health will glad
" furnish the preventive treatment to
any one who desires it. The efficiency
of this treatment has been so thor
oughly demonstrated, and the results
so thoroughly and universally known
that additional discussion is not need
full.
Urging yosr hearty co cooperation
OF aeath in Florida rare occErance,
[ am,
Sincerely yours.
RALPH N. GREENE,
State Health Officer.

CONTROL OF
PINE BEETLE

WASHINGTON April 2s--Control
of the Southern pine beetle is entirely
practicable. the Department OF Agri-
calture says In a statement calling at
tention that more merchantable timber
was killed In the Southern pine belt
as result or its operations In. the last
thirty years than died from all other
causes combined. One remedy sug-
gested Is that all trees that die during
late summer and fall. be cut and util-
lied for timber and fuel, care being
exercised that the bark OF the main
trunk is BURNED 10 insure control of
the beetle.
The insect Isl described as small
brownish or black beetle. somewhat
smaller than a grain or rice. 1t flies
from March to December In the more
southern sections and from May to
November in its northern range. It
attacks the middle and upper portions
OF the trunk OF healthy pine trees,
causing their death by excavating long
winding burrows, or egg galleries,
which extend through the inner layers
Of the living bark and mark the sur
face OF the wood.
