Washington, Jan. 21—Reduction 1n typhoid fever and improvement in sanitary conditions have followed the intensive investigations of rural com- by the United Service munities carried on States Public Health operation with local and State health officers, according to the annual re- port of the Surgeon General of that service. During the past fiscal year 16,369 rural homes in eight different states were visited and many of them In each of these homes |nt01m‘xuon W obtained as to the prevalence of disease and insanitary conditions and a complete sanitary survey of the premises’ conducted. This was followed by reinspections to determine if remedial measures had been instituted. In but a relatively small percentage of the cases did the persons concerned, after having their attention drawn to the danger of a particular unhygienic condition, fail to inaugurate corrective measures. Stimulus was given to the work by means of public lectures, the forma- tion of aative sanitary organizations, and the enlisting of all public spirit- ed citizens in the campaigns for re- form. Public buildings were also in- spected and local authorities expert advice in solving such sani- tary problems the disposal of creta, the prevention of soil pollu- tion, and the maintenance of pure water supplies. The surveys made during the year had shown that in rural com- es less than one per cent. of the homes had sanitary toilets and that more than fifty per cent. of the in co- people were using water from pollut- | ed sources. This condition, accord- ing to the Public Health Service, made the rural sanitation question loom large among the matters vita!ly affecting the welfare of the nation Following these studies and as a re- sult of the interest aroused, the ty- phoid fever rate, an excellent indi- cator of the sanitary status of a community, has in some places fre- quently been cut to one-quarter of its previous figure. In Berkeley councy, West Virginia, the cases of typhonl fever were reduced from 249 to 40 in one year. In Orange county, North Carolina, the rural sanitatiou campaign resulted in a reduction of the cases from 59 to 17. The tangible results of operations in rural sanitation indicate that marked advancement in maintaining hygienic and satisfactory surround- ings in country districts is possible by .the application of the common principles of preventive medicine. In- sanitary conditions exist largely be- cause they are not known to be such. Actual demonstrations of their harmfulness, together nite recommendations for their cor- rection, remain one of the most grat- fying and successful methods for in- stituting reforms and has been, in the experience of the Public Health Service, invariably accompanied by definite and measureable results.
