scarlet fever. Many places report
the prevalence OF this disease with
the further distressing fact that it is
growing more yirulent and a number
OF deaths being reported.
No board can make regulations to
stop carelessness and the evidence
strongly supports the claim that many
OF the cases in Elko are due to this
cause
The burden OF avoiding contagiOn is
alike on the well and those who have
the disease and the spread seems to
be entirely due to contact with people
before the afflicted ones knew they
had it, No case has as yet been
traced to those who have been quar-
autlncd except in the immediate fam
lily or the afflicted.
While these are extraordinary meas
ures we feel that they are worthy OF
your most careful observance.
Very respectfully,
