DISEASES OF THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY

A physician writing to the Peoria
Journal, says that "since 1856, diseases
in the Mississippi valley have undergone
complete metamorphosis. Then con-
gestive, bilious and intermittent (mala-
rial) diseases were the rule, and contin-
ued (typhoiD diseases were the excep,
ton: now, only in certain exceptional
seasons, the very reverse is the fact. From
that period the prevailing type of disease
here has been more typhoid in its charac-
ter in common with the entire west From
1864 to 1874 we had each year a con
siderable number of cases of typhoid
fever, but the last five years shows, in
my general practice, a less pro rata
amount of this disease, in proportion to
our increased population, than at any
time during the last fifteen years; and !
can state very positively that its mortali
ty has been year after year steadily di
minishing We have rarely been visited
by any epidemic; and when we have, il
has invariably been of short duration ano
not fatal in it's character
