Health DEPARTMENT

According to the records nled at the
Offices of the Maine state Department
of Health, there was a phenomenally
low figure of tuberculosis deaths in
this State for the past IL months.
The total of deaths from tubercu-
losis in all forms in Maine during the
past year was but 7S9 of which 6SS
were of the pulmonary type. Just
how markedly downward is the tenden-
cy of this white plague can be shown
no more strikingly than by quotations
of the figures of 1892. the year when
Maine was first admitted to the fed
cral registration area, and the hrst re-
corded statistics were made. For that,
wear there were 1913 tuberculosis
deaths of which 1852 were pulmonary.
These figures indicate that the disease
has been reduced practically one-hali
in the last IS years, and brings the
hopeful message of still further re-
duction which can be safely predlcteo
for the future
Here again. thinks the Maine De-
nartment of Health, is a potent exam
ple of the tremendous efficiency of
public health work, both local and
the lines of prevention and cure, as
worked out by medical scientists, and
investigators is responsible in a large
meas ure for these encouraging facts
regarding the tuberculosis situation.
No more hopeful sign Of the times,
from the viewpoint of public health.
can be imagined than the steady low
ering of the tuberculosis death rate.
1t was in 1912 that the number Of
tuberculosis deaths fell below 1000.
never to exceed that number again.
and the decrease in the last decade has
been uniformly steady except in 1918,
the influenza year. when an increase by
so deaths. was recorded. The figure
for the past year of 7S9 is indeed re-
cord breaker.
Pulmonary tuberculosis which is by
far the most prevalent type. has fol-
lowed closely the record of the general
figures of the past quarter century. and
the past year for the first time num-
oered less than 700 deaths. having
dropped almost an entire hundred,
from 721 to 63S IN the past year.
