DIR. Schrader on Smallpox.

In another column viii be found an
interesting letter from DR.. Schrader
of the State Board of Health, relating
to small pox, This article appears in
the April State Board of Health Bulle-
tin. So many people are of the opinion
that the doctors are keeping up this
small pox scare because they are inter-
ested from pecuniary standpoint DR..
Schrader suggests a sure and practical
method by which such doctors, if any
there be, can be thwarted in their de-
signes-that is by stamping out the
disease in the next sixty days. We
suggest that everyone read the article
over carefully.
