Last Sunday, Drv Hutchinson, president of the State board of Health visited Corvallis. , He ,was accompanied by other members of the board, and the purpose of their visit was an investigation of the sour of water supply. The result of their investigation is to be seen -on - an other page. . They ' cbndemn the water supply at Salem and find fault with the conditions at Albany, but do not given unfavorable report with reference to Corvallis or Eu -gene, Of the latter towns they rec ommend that the water be filtered. In Corvallis Pr Hutchinson and his party, were in conference with all the physicians who were in town Of the latter, they required reports as to the number of typhoid fever caseS"that had come under the ob servation of each. Questions of all kinds with reference to the practice as connected with the water supply were asked and answered. It de veloped that of the four physicians in town, none had had a'single( tyr phoid fever patient during the past year, while the fifth had treated but two. the two being the only Cases of the kind within the city during the period- One physician reported that heiiad not had a -single case of the disease during his practice of several years in town. Another had three cases in three years. The very favorable charac ter of the reports of the -medical men was in a measure surprising to the members of the State Board who expected from their investiga tion in'" Salem and elsewhere to find conditions otherwise. ' Five years ago typhoid fever was for a time seriously prevalent in Corvallis. Investigations at the time showed, that as many of the patients used well water from wells, as from the water- system. It is also the observation of local "phy sicians, that so" far as typhoid is concerned, there is- as much of it in proportion to population in the adjacent country where Willamette water is not used as there is in Cor vallis. ;' :'"" . - -"v " V ' The above brings to mind the fact that two Westside towns are in stalling mountain water, systems . McMinnville is to bring water seven milesat a total of about $461 00 Ballas is now building a similar system, deriving its water from ' OVhyorr-Creek, piping it a dislapce of'six miles.

Gates is the contractor, and the city puts $15,000 in as its share of thex Works having free use ot the wajer for a certain number, of years as result of the investment.
