The campaign in these two towns was con- ducted by Dr. H. A Taylor, field di- rector of the International Health Board, under supervision of the State Department of Health. Dr. J. E. Sparks, physician for the Crossett Lumber Company, has reported that there practically was no malaria in that vicinity at the end of the second years campaign.
 The Crossett Lumber Company be- gan the malaria control campaign by rechanneling ditches, maintaining drip cans and knapsack sprays to spray oil on stagnant pools and other small bodies of water. Improved screening has been put into effect The expense of the campaign this year has been much less than last year, and the expense is expected to decrease each year. It was said that while the number of calls made by physicians during October formerly was in excess of any other month, that the calls made during the month just closed were reduced more than half l The malaria control campaign at Hamburg began this year and it was reported that the malaria curve has been diminished each month, where as it used to increase each month up to November.
