Following are some extracts from
the address on the filtration of water
delivered before the Hawaiian Medical
November is, 1905:
Contamination of water supplies has
been responsible for most epidemics of
typhoid fever, cholera and other
water borne diseases. and those COM
niunities that do not use filtered water
are liable at any time to come face
to face with these diseases.
Honolulu is one of them, and being
situated within the tropics and in close
touch with the Orient the danger is
real if surface water is to be used.
Several years ago this subject was
agitated by the Hawaiian Board of
Health and plans and specifications for
a filter plant for Nuuanu Valley were
prepared by Mr.. Rudolph Herring, C. E.
The government at that time decid
ed to supply the city with artesian
water which requires no filtering and
the matter was dropped. Now, how
ever, when the present adminstra ton
is about to construct a large reservoir
at the upper part of Nuuanu Valley
for the purpose of supplying surface
water, this matter must again be call
ed to their attention, and it appears
to me eminently proper that the Ha-
waiian Territorial Medical Society
should discuss a suitable filter plant
without delay. Let them not wait
until bitter experience forces home
the lessons taught in other places.
The object of sanitary science is the
prevention of disease. One of the func-
tions of government is the conservation
of the public health, and laws are
passed and regulations made based
upon the teachings of sanitary science
for this express purpose.
Glance at our buildings, and intri
cate plumbing regulations, at the
Board of Health rules concerning cess
pools and sewers and at the laws re-
lating to the adulteration of foods.
Note the careful supervision of diaries
and the work of the sanitary officers
in ferreting out nuisances and in dis
posing of garbage-all bearing direct
ly on the preservation of health and
the prevention of disease
Yet, how supine we are on the
water question! How slow we are to
learn by the sad experience of other
communities the dangers that lie in an
unprotected water supply!
with all it's enterprise in other di-
rections this government is taking no
steps to provide the city with pure
water. 1t proposes that we shall drink
and battle in dilution of filth from
the valley reservoirs which at any time |
may contain the virulent germs of ty- |
phoid fever, cholera, dysentery, an |
or liver fiuke.
Berlin from 1843 to 1858 before using |
filtered water, averaged about one
death annually to every one thousand |
from 1891 to 1901, after
using filtered water, this average was
reduced to one death to every twenty |

Overripe cream means rancid butter.
The scientific buttermaker ripens his
cream to uniform acidity. The
amount of acid his cream contains he
measures by means of a test. The man
who makes butter on the farm should
use this test, or else he should use
something that will enable him to
know exactly when to stop the ripen-
ing process and begin TO churn his
cream. Butter to sell we'll should be

After slumbering more or less quiet
ly for few years, the romantic tale
that the bees drop into each cell of
honey a small drop of poison from
the sting before sealing up the cell,
using the sting as a trowel to work
the wax, seems to have started anew
its rounds Of the public press. To any
who have sent in clippings of the kind,
possibly wondering what foundation
there may be for the yarn, it may be
said on the authority Of a bee expert
that it is all Il work of Imagination, its
originator apparently seeming to think
it true, but never offering a particle Of
proof. OF course, none of the papers
that gave it currency will bother them
selves with a contradiction, and the
only thing that can be done is patiently
to allow it to run its course and die
out, only to be resurrected seven years
later by some penny-a-lner who has
nothing else sensational on hand.
