There having been little rain in Trini-
dad since November, 1911, a condition
OF severe drought exists in nearly all
districts, which has affected the grow
ing crops, principally cacao and sugar
cane, to such an extent that the har-
vest this year is expected to be unus
ualiy light. The lack of rain also in
many places threatens the usual water
supply for domestic purposes and has
almost destroyed the pasturage.

THE STATE BOARD
OF HEALTH Is
ACTIVE
THE SUCCESS OF THE HookWoRM
DISPENsARiES NOTHING LESS
THAN PHENOMENAL.

A campaign for better sanitation
is being conducted at present in each
of the following counties: : Franklin,
Forrest, Alcorn, Winston and Pike.
A campaign has just closed in Amite
county and the results of the work
are indeed most gratifying. The rec
ords in the hands of DR.. feathers,
Director of Public Health, show that
DR.. Buschanan has examined 4107 peo-
pie for hookworm disease in this
county during the past six weeks, and
of this number there were BOIL per
sons suffering from this blood suck
ing and weakening disease. There
were 1925 treated and to this num-
Der of individuals were given 1854
treatments.
1t is the consensus of opinion that
scores of people in this county have
been benefited by the representatives
of the State Board of Health. The
following letter was addressed to DR..
Leathers which shows clearly the
appreciation of the work and the re-
suits obtained
Dear Doctor:-I am unable to ex-
press my appreciation of your inter-
est in the people of this county and
especially the children by sending to
us your representative Dr. G. G. Buch-
anan, who has been conducting a
health campaign in this county for
the past several weeks. I am asses
sor of this county and consequently
have visited practically every home
In the county and can therefore real
ize the necessity of improving the
sanitary conditions.
THE results of this work have
been so certain and noticeable that
even the most ignorant could detect
it, The public in general have mani
tested great interest and much good
has and will be the result. The
stamping out of this disease will be
one of the greatest victories ever
gained in the time of peace
Trusting that the people of the
other counties of the state will mani
fest as much interest in this work
as has been shown in this county,
am, Yours very truly,
"R. d. Moore, Assessor,
Liberty, Miss"
There is one thing certain, that,
thinking a disease does not exist will
never be means of changing a con-
dition which is essential in its eradi-
cation. Hookworm disease is the
most common malady affecting the
people of our state today and it is
unquestionably one of our most seri-
us problems. But it is indeed, for
tunate that the disease can be posi-
lively cured and easily prevented.
The remedy is to find out what is
necessary and should be done and
face the problem in a practical and
sensible way.
In olden times the heather sacri-
feed the blood of their children to
unknown Gods. Shall we continue
to sacrifice the blood of our children
on the altar of the Hookworm?
