AN EFFICIENT NEW REMEDY.

The results of incubation as a prev
entive of typhoid fever have been so
beneficial that, in the opinion Of medical
experts, 1t is only a question Of time
when anti-typhoid vaccine will prove to
be one of the most effica cious remedies
known to medical science. DR.. Henry d.
Holton of Brattleboro, secretary of the
state board of health, believes that its
use will become as general and as effec
tive as has the use of the anti-smallpox
vaccine. Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood has
become so thoroughly convinced of the
value of this new remedy that he has
issued an order making 1t compulsory for
every officer and private in the army to
subject himself to tratement with anti
typhoid vaccine. At the recent four
months camp of the regulars at San
Antonio there were nearly $4,000 men,
and the medical records show only one
typhoid case and no deaths from that
disease. The one case was that of a
soldier who had not been wholly i'm
munized by the new method
incubation to prevent typhoid fever
never has been attempted in Vermont,
but there is no question but that the
Pi"N'iNc win NC oN'PtNu' III uuS 'iiie' ny
the medical profession in the state, and
possibly it will be required by legislative
action. Meanwhile the state well may
congratulate itself upon the invaluable
service of its board of health. In the
six years previous to the establishment
of the state board of health there were
COS deaths from typhoid fever in Vermont.
For the last six years the number was
354, a reduction of about so per cent In
the years from 1905 to 1909, inclusive,
the death rate in Vermont from this
disease averaged II for each 100000 of
population.
