DEAh WATF SHOWS DECREASE
SAYS BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT
Dr. Pratt Reviews Work for Year and Declares Future Pre-
sents Many Problems to Be Solved in City of Honolulu
Mosquito Campaign-Rats and MongooSe

While there have been no serious
epidemics, yet during the year four
dangerous conditions have arisen,
namely, a case OF yellow fever in the
city OF Honolulu; six cases Of plague
at Honokaa and kapulena, Island of
Hawaii; twenty-four cases Of scarlet
fever on the Island of Maui, and forty
two cases of diphtneria on the Island
of Kauai.
Pneumonia caused 342 deaths; tub
erculosis 1863, enteric fever 80; teta-
nus IS; diphtheria II and scarlet fe-
yer 8.
The total deaths from all causes
was 3,071, or 225 less than the previ-
GUS year. On the basis Of popula-
ton of 191 ,909 this is at the rate Of
1902 plus, per 1000 as compared with
1874 plus, the previous year. There
were 202 deaths in the Territory due
to accident, violence suicide, etc. II
these were deducted, the death rate
from disease alone would be much
less. There were, excluding still
births, 1,057 deaths in Honolulu which
would, on a basis of 52,1S3 population,
make the percentage z0.255 plus. In
Honolulu there were SIS deaths due to
accidents, violence, etc.
Birth Rate Increase.
Reported births number STAT, an
increase of 653 over the last period
and were divided as follows: Homo
lulu 1,430;. Oahu outside Honolulu
1872; Hawaii 1856; Kauai Gil; Maui
906 and Kauai II.
There were 2,882 marriages, an
increase of SIC over the previous pc

Mentioning the fact that the steam
ship Harpalion, which brought Portu..
guese and Spanish immigrants, was
quarantined for smallpox, and SINH
lar action on. the steamship Willesden5
which brought immigrants affected
with diphtheria, scarlet fever and.
measles, the report gives the follow.
ing warning:
Immigration Is already beginning.
to have a bearing on the health sta
tistics OF Hawaii, particularly as re-.
CARDS tuberculosis, leprosy and vari-..
ola. While everyone recognizes the
necessity. of immigration vet at the
same time 1t should be so controlled
as to prevent the introduction of dis
eases of which We already have a suf-
ficient number.
Zone of the most important matters;
carried on by the board has been the
campaign of education, and a great
deal Of time has been devoted to this. /
An earnest effort las been made to-
arouse public and individual interest
In health and sanitation. -. Only
a beginning has made yet we hope
to accomplish much more in the fu-
ture, particularly In the education of
school children, for in the younger
lies the greatest hope of
better health conditions and improved
sanitation. Pr"
Plantation Sanitation.
Plantation sanitation has received
q great deal of attention. slow, but
steady advance has been made in the
of conditions in planta-
ton camps. Plantation agents and
are realizing that there Is
no better health insurance than that
Of having good houses, well ventilated,
