BOARD or HEALTH.

Jackson, Miss. Jan. 30-lt is
most remarkable that during the
month of November no deaths
were reported to the Mississippi
State Board of Health from mea
sles or scartlet fever. As a rule
both diseases flourish immediat-

year. While during the sane
period "a deaths were prodaced
I,y Diphtheria, 81 being white
children. This dieease caused
only 1,5 per cent Of all the deaths
Yet among the whites it produc-
ed 3.3 per ct of the deaths, while
only 0.3 per cent Of the negro
deaths were from this cause, max
ing the white death. rate from
this cause eleven times that Of
the negro. This is unfortunate
as Diphtheria is a disease that
responds readily to treatment.
If sufficient quantities of antilox-
in is administered early in the
disease very few deaths result
from this cause.
The State Board Of Health has
established stations throughout
the state where diphtheria anti
toxin can he purchased at about
