During euch year from 20,000 to 30,000 Americans die from typhoid fever ,entailing an economic loss of at least $290,000.00. But according to Dr. Earl Mayo in a recent article this can be prevented.

Sut people can now be vaccinat- ed against typhoid just as they can against several other diseases, In the U. S- army, all recruits will soon chus be made immune to typhoid. In| the big army manuevers in Texas a year ago, there was only ome case of typhoid among all the thousands of soldiers. The conditions were practically the same as during the Spanish war when hundreds in camp died of it. Gradually people are learning to protect themselves from sickness. Fined for Killing Deer.
