State of Health
Feilding is to be congratulated on its excellent sanitary condition, as disclosed in the report of the Inspector of Nuisances, published with our record of the proceedings of the Borough Council on Thursday night. Evils, the existence of which, we complained in a previous article, appear to have fled at the approach of the Inspector. This is as it should be. It is in u6h 'better for* people to take sanitary precautions themselves than to have to take them under compulsion./ .Still, we must not shut, our eyestg the^fact that we have had a narrow escape — if we have so escaped — from the outbreak of a serious disease. This is a remarkably healthy town at present, but as the population increases it will not do to go on in the "|appy go lubkj" style which has obtained for so long. More, drastic measures "will have to be adopted to compel ithe observance of au laws relating to Public Health. A valuable suggestion, contained in the report, should be immediately carried into effect. :„ .> si
