Food may become contaminated by infectious material in many ways; for example, by contact with sewage, or with polluted water, or even with eating utensils which have been used by patients. Water is also likely to be contaminated with infectious material, and is a fertile source for distributing typhoid and cholera.
While we are protecting our water-supplies against sewage, we can, in the meantime, render that sewage comparatively harmless by thoroughly disinfecting and sterilizing all discharges from every known case of the disease. A similar method is used in the fight against yellow fever and malaria.
Some states have laws regulating the size of the fish that may be caught and the number that one person may take in one day, and all states should have such laws. The worst waste of our fish is caused by turning large quantities of sewage or refuse from factories into streams. All the fish for miles up and down a river are often destroyed in this way.

Great engineering works, such as railway viaducts, the lining of railway tunnels, the piers and even the arches of bridges, sewage works, dock and wharf walls, furnace chimneys, and other works of this sort are chiefly done in brickwork.
He come up tame and squirting sewage like a dissolute porpoise, while I played him out where he'd get the thrash of the propeller. "'Help, he yells, 'I'm a drownding. "'Ten dollars and costs," says I, lettin' him under again. 'Do you know who you're drinkin' with this time, hey?
And when at last he could look vertically downward again, he saw below him the vegetable fields of the Thames valley innumerable minute oblongs of ruddy brown, intersected by shining threads, the sewage ditches.
