The State board of health has become
somewhat alarmed over the prevalence
of Charlton in certain parts of the State,
and as charbon seems to be disease
which human beings are liable to con-
tract from animals, the board is de-
termined to adopt stringent measures
to stamp out the infection before it can
get beyond control. Secretary Hunter
of the State board has issued the fol-
lowing circular:
HEADQUARTERS STATE BOARD HEALTH,

Mississippi State board of health that the
disease known as anthrax or Charlton now
prevails among animals in certain locali-
ties in this State, and that in some in
stances persons have become infected with

infected, or from carcasses of animals dead
of the disease; therefore, be it
Resolved, by the executive committee of

hereby instructed to see that the foregoing
regulation is carried out, and if it is not
promptly enforced to notify the secretary
