STATE HOUSE.
Board of Health Bulletin
Says Some 7 own Clerks
Do Not Report Deaths from
tuberculosis as Required.
Expert Accountant from Office Of
Former State Auditor at Work.
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR,
Regular Meeting of Governor and
Council, Thursday, Dec. a., at 10
A. M.

Or. A. G. Young of Augusta, secre-
tary Of the State board of health in
the November bulletin, which was is
sued Tuesday, calls the attention OF
local boards of health to the fact that
some town and city clerks are not
complying with the requirements of a
section of one enactment of the Leg
islature of 1902 which reads as follows:
Section 9-When a town or city
clerk receives certificate of the death
of any person, who has died of tuber-
culosis in his town. he shall forthwith
send copy of said certificate to the
health officer of his town or city, oil
where there is no health officer to the
secretary of the local board of health.
1t is important" says DIR. Young
that these reports be received prompt
ly from town clerks, in order that To-
cal boards of health may know in
what houses deaths from tuberculosis
have occurred"
The bulletin in speaking of typhoid
fever says: THE precautionary meas
ures in general use all over the State
against the spread of infection when
typhoid fever breaks out in a home,
are entirely inadequate There is a
close relationship between typhoid fe-
yer and cholera, so far as their means
OF distribution are concerned, and the
measures which should be observed to
prevent their spread. If the same
rules could systematically be put in
force which would be carried out if
cholera should appear among us, 1t
would be safe TO say that there would
be a great drop in the yearly number
of cases of typhoid fever and the num-
Der of deaths from that disease"
Some very seasonable advice is given
in the bulletin as to colds and grip.
The following paragraph takes up the
matter: Now the season of the year
comes on apace when colds and grip
are to be more prevalent. But the ex-
tension of these troubles from person
to person in the same family, or from
child to child in the same school, could
be controlled very much, if it We're re-
membered that common colds general
", as Well as grip with it's varied
symptoms, are communicable by toe
close association. Infection may be
passed through the air from person to
person, from talking, or coughing, on
sneezing at too close range, or by
wash bowls, towels. and other things
used in common. When any of these
troubles break out the time has come
for the scalding of forks and spoons
in addition To the ordinary washing
and il is time for the strict enforce
ment of the rules of a separate cup al
the table and elsewhere for the one
with cold, and the observance of the
rule should begin early"
The leaflets, recently issued separ-
ately, in regard to the prevention of
typhoid fever and the evils of the
common drinking cup are reprinted in
this bulletin.
