Both cases of typhoid fev er have been quarantined and are under the closest surveillance. Yesterday noon, report of the two typhoid cases was made to the county health office. Thirty minutes later it was found that the milk supply of both cases of ty phoid was from the same dairy. In a short time, the pro prietor of the establishment was interviewed by the health officer and rather than submit himself and his employes to an examination to determine whether or not there was typhoid carrier working on the place, the dairyman agreed to cease business. "I am through for good," he is quoted as saying. Another dairy was investi gated, and samples of milk were sent to the state board of health to be tested.
