AS an instance let me mention but
few of the relatively recent promi-

The reformation that brought about
the emancipation of human con.

cipation of man. The recent social
movement that promises to effect soc.

so on. In every instance historical

MOSQUITO CAMPAIGN ENDS DENGUE
FEVER At CAVTE NAVAL STATION

CAVITE, p, l., March 2S.--Surgeon
A. e. Peck, U, S. Navy, surgeon Of
the yard, has been carrying on a series
Of practical experiments and inyeati.
cations in Cayite that have proved
to be quite beneficial to many of tie
people of this town, and no doubt to
the community in general
When Dr. Peck came to this station
about a year ago, dengue fever had
been prevalent every month of the
year, for several years. With a firm
belief thaC this common malady could
be decreased to a great extent if
proper pre- cautions were taken, he set
upon a plan, in the first Place to pre-
vent as far as possible the breeding
of mosquitoes With a squad of three
or four assistants, al the breeding
places around the yard were located
and annihi ated, but still some mos
quitoes We're TO be found, making it
necessary to go out into the town on
a house to house inspection. Con
trary to the generally accepted opln-
ion, it was discovered that the breed
ing places were not in the wells and
cisterr5 especially where the water

WIS used continually, out in the drains
principally, most of which are of ne
cessity quite stagnant, there being
practically no sewage system in the
town. BY means of the fire engine all
these drains were thoroughly flushed
with salt water.
1t WIS further found that many of
the natives had two species of fish,
one the martinico and he other the
dalag, in their cisterms or wells, and
in these wells there were no mos
Quitoes. DR.. Peck encouraged the ma
tives to keep these fish in their wells
and to cover their cisterns, and ex-
planned to them the necessity of
emptying their tapayanes and keeping
the suWderos as clean as possible.
DR.. Peck and his assistants aim
to make campaign through the town
once about every ten days, but owing
to the lack of help this can not al
ways be done. AS a result of his eff
forts thus far, however, there has
been no dengue fever in Cavite since
last September and in many sections
one can sit in the open in the even
ings with much greater degree of
comfort than formerly.
