state Antl.Toxin at Cost.

The Wisconsin state board of health
has been informed that the public
officials OF towns, villages and counties
of the state generally do not know that
the board is prepared to furnish at
actual cost diphtheric anti-toxin.
Commercial houses, which furnish
most IF the anti-toxins used in the
state, charge more than the state does.
The states price for tie 1000 units
is 40 cents.
The state board of health wants to
make anti-toxins for other contagious
diseases and had bill introduced at
the last session of the legislature APP
prCpriating sufficient money to enable
it to do so. but the bill did not pass.
The board, however. makes some anti
toxin for typhoid fever, and used some
in vaccinating the inmates OF the
Green County Insane asylum and poor
house during a recent outbreak of the
disease there. Owing to its limited
funds, the board is not able to furnish
much typhoid anti-toxin.
The Pasteur institute, which is un-
der the direction of the board of
health aad is conducted in connection
with the hygienic laboratory at the
state university where the anti-toxiRs
are made, treats patients for rabies at
actual cost of the serum and the ex-
pense of injecting 1t. The board esti-
mates that it saved the people of Wis
consin sic 900 for anti-toxins last year,
and will probably do better this year.
