Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Weekly Star, August 2, 1919, p. 1. O. K. PUT ON CITY WATER State Board of Health Compliments Local Plant. Bloomington's water is pure and the water plant should continue to produce entirely pure water indefinitely, according to the report of Dr. H. E. Barnard, of the State Board of Health, following an inspection of local waterworks, July 17. Several cases of typhoid fever in the city caused considerable alarm but even these were not attributed to city water. With the water used sparingly by consumers during drouths [sic], and with the excellent recommendation from the board of health, the city will have no more trouble with her water supply. Constance T.
