WHOOPING COUGH is
WORSE THAN SMALLPOX
Higher Percentage of Deatho
in Oregon is Shown.

PORTLAND, ore Aug. S.-That
whooping cough has claimed a larger
per centage of fatalities than small
pox in oregon for several years IS
one of the facts brought out in the
annual report of the state board Of
health. compiled by David " RoberS,
now In press.
The new annual shows the regular
decrease of the most feared and
dangerous contagious seases. The
annual deaths by typhoid fever hav'
dropped from 124 in 1908 to SO in
1915. In the same time the deaths
resulting from diphtheria dropped
from 76 to II
Comparisons Are Remarkable
But the most remarkable thing is
the comparison between smallpox
and whooping cough. The percentage
of deaths from whooping cough far
exceeds that from smallpox, Nearly
s3 per cent of those taken i'll from
whooping cough died, while less than
one per cent of smallpox cases were
fatal out of 5S5 cases of smallpox
in 1915 only four died while out of
los cases of whooping cough in the
same year. 80 died. Yet many
mothers say, "Only whooping cough.
nothing serious. He had to catch it
anyway"
The report also compares the mar
riages In 1915 there were 5262,
while 1915 had only 1888. This diff
ference IS due not only to the growth
OF the state, but the improved meth
cd of registration over the state.
Heretofore the state has been divid-
ed into as many districts as counties.
Now it contains some 290 districts,
through which the central office IS
kept in almost constant touch.
Typhoid Greatly Reduced.
The decrease in the number of ty-
| phoid cases is also marked. In 1908
there were 124 deaths from 56S cas-
| es. in 1915, SO cases were fatal out IF
total Of 206.

HONORABLY DISCHARGED.

Capt. u. w. Ford, who recently
entered the Medical Reserve Corps
of the National army, and was assign
ed for duty to the Provisional Base
Hospital at Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia,
has received an honorable discharge
from military service, and arrived
home Tuesday. Capt. Ford's first
knowledge OF his discharge was con
tanned in the following telegram:
Washington. 1853 p. M, Dec. SIT.

Hospital. Ft. Oglethorpe. Ga.
Order made this date relieving
Captain Edward w. Ford, Medical
Reserve Corps, from duty at Provis-
ional Base Hospital. FIT. OgIethorpe,

reporting on arrival by telegraph TO
the Adjutant General, and honorably
discharging him from Medical Re-
serve Corps Of army. effective upon
arrival home. Travel directed ne
cessary in military service. Inform
him. MCCAIN
The order came wholly unexpect-
eddy to Capt. Ford. whose work had
never been criticised by his super
Tor officers. Other officers with good
records we're being also relieved with
out notice of cause. We will not
criticiss tho War Department for the
conduct of its affairs. but we are at
a loss to understand why a man OF
Capt. Ford's high personal charac-
ter and superior fitness as a physi-
clan should be thus summarily dis
charged from the service. The peo-
pie of Ohio county who know and ad-
mire DR.. Ford will not believe that
he was relieved from military ser
vice because of any personal miscon-
duet or for lack Of professional eff
dciency. and will welcome him back
to the old home town.
