Baby Mortality Reduced
During the past thirty year*
science has greatly, reduced the
mortality rate with children un-
der six vears of age. Now that
we know the cause for many of
the diseases that formerly caused
death with children of this peri-
od of life we know how to go
about preventing and avoiding
these diseases We know that
Diarrhoea, Dysentry and Typ-
hoid fever can be contracted
from contaminated water and
milk, that they can be carried
by flies from filthv privies. II
the children are to escape these
diseases and they are more sus-
ceptible than adults by reoson of
their lower power of resistance
we must apply the lesson science
has taught by abolishing and
doing away v»ith all garbage,
dirty and filthy toilets and breed-
ing places for flies. Screen the
homes ami keep flies away from
the children and their food.
Make certain ot the purity of
the drinking water and milk
supply. Have the local health
officers attend to the inspection
and examination of the water
supply often; and when it shows
evidence of contamination, boii
all the water the children drink
or use. Insist upon the local
authorities requiring inspection
of the dairies and use only milk
that comes from the healthy
cows and that which Is handled
in a clean wholesome manner.
Protect them from the flies.
It is cheaper and much more
effect! ve-to swat the * breeding
places for flies than it is to swat
the fly. You can lessen the
danger of the fly by doing away
with all its filthy breeding
places.
