for the strange awkward birds,
similar to small albatross, which

Typhoid Fever In
Maryland Reported
Below Last Year
FIfty-three Cases AS Compared
With Eighty-five For
Period Last Season

With So cases of typhoid reported
in the State during the first six
months of the current year, as COM
pared to 85 in the corresponding per-
iod of 1885, 124 in 1884, 113 in 1888,
and LAB during the first six months
of 1882, the place Of honor, so far
as new low score is announced, is
given to that disease, in the report
of DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the
State Department of Health, of the
incidence of communicable diseases in
the State from January 1 to June 80
of this year.
Summarizing the report, DR.. Riley
said. "In spite of the menace of ty-
phoid as an after effect Of the de-
structive floods of March and April,
we have the smallest number of cas-
es-53-recorded during any CORES
ponding six months period. It will
be recalled that disease prevention
measures, notably widespread inlxnu-
nization against typhoid, chlorination
or other disinfection of water supplies,
and orders that all potentially unsafe
drinking water be boiled before US
ing-were Immediately applied in all
sections of the State endangered by
the floods. These emergency meas
ures supplemented the steady fight
that is being waged throughout the
counties against typhoid at all times,
through sanitary measures, by immu-
nization against the disease, and by
the discovery and supervision of car
riers. The cumulative effect of all
of these activities is reflected in the
favorable record for the current six
months. However this doesn't mean
Aat we can relax in any Of our eff
forts. Because of the nature of ty-
phoid, the insidiousness of the meth
DDS of attack, and especially of the
possibility of the transmission of the
infection through unknown or unrec-
ognized carriers, there can be no pos
sible let up in the precautionary
measures against the disease.
"Of the So cases reported during
the first six months this year, II oc-
Cured in Baltimore City and SO in
the Counties-Carroll, Cecil, Howard,
Prince Georges Queen Anne's and
Somerset-came through the siz
months without having single case
of typhoid charged to them"
