A STUDY OF DRUG STORES
is MADE BY HEALTH MEN
State Department Makes Survey
of Pharmacists in Maryland

Did you ever count up the number
of prescriptions you have had filled
within a year at your neighborhood
drug store? That is what the Bureau
of Food and Drugs of the State De-
partment of Health has done in con-
nection with recent surveys of the
retail drug stores of the State, with
particular reference to the law which
will not permit any but licenses phar-
macists-persons who have had spec
ial training and who have graduated
from accredited professional schools
to put up the prescriptions ordered
by physicians.
Here are some of the findings of
the surveys as reported to the State
Board of Health by DIR. Robert L.
Swain, Deputy Food and Drug Com
missioner of the State Department of
Health:
First, as to the pharmacists: The
total number of registered pharma-
cists in Maryland is 1900, two-thirds
of whom are employed in drug stores
in Baltimore City and one-third in
the counties. The total number of re-
tail drug stores in the State is 667, of
which 452 are in Baltimore City and
215 in the counties. The total number
of stores from which reports were re-
ceived was 618, of which 41S were in
Baltimore City and 200 in the coun-
ties.
Second, as to prescriptions: The
total number of prescriptions COM
pounded in the stores from which re-
ports were filed, for the year ending
December 81, 1880, was 2,717,775, Of
which 2,O25,685 were filled in Balti-
more City and 692, 900 in the counties.
Basing the total filled in all of the
stores on these figures, it is estimated
that 3,347, 226 prescriptions were filed
during the year, or an average of two
per person in the State, or-consider-
ing Baltimore City and the counties
separately-of 8 per person in Balti-
more City and ITO per person in the
counties.
Of the total of 2,428,722 prescrip-
lions put up in the retail drug stores
in Baltimore City, 1,738,51S were
new prescriptions and 690,204 were
reflled. Of the total of 913,246 filled
in the counties, $685. AL were new and
306,805 were refilled.
The average number of prescrip-
lions filled during the year by each
store was 4,846 for each of the stores
in Baltimore City and 3,461 for each
store in the counties. In proportion
to population there is one drug store
to each 1,781 of the population of
Baltimore City and one to each 3,S45
of the population of the counties.
"The study is the first of the sort
undertaken in this country. In devel-
oping the plan, the Maryland Bureau
of Food and Drugs had the advice of
the U. S. Bureau of the Census. The
information collected" DR.. Swain said
in presenting the report, "shows the
significance and importance of the
drug stores of the State"
At the request of the Bureau of the
Census, similar studies are to be made
by the State authorities in Florida,
Indiana and Washington.

President HOover'S accommodation
of Augusta Sandino for the cold
blooded murder" of Americans en-
phasizes the administration view
point that the trouble in Nicaragua
is not revolutionary but sporadic
disorder fonented by murderous
band. In this connection it may be
well to point out that Great Britain
is following the new policy of the
United States in Nicaragua. In es-
sence, this involves the belief that
the Central American government
will do all in it's power to punish
the marauders and that this country
should not use it's forces to police
that country for the protection OF
American property.
While the Hoover attitude to-
wards the situation in Nicaragua
| is being very much criticized in
certain quarters, where a more i'm
perialistic program would be hailed
with delight, it seems to meet with
much approval at this time. The
4 President practically serves notice
upon Americans who invest their
money in Nicaragua that they must
look to that country for the protec-
ton of their investments. In other
words. If American capital seeks in
vestment beyond the confines o1
this country it must not expect the
United States to attempt to exer-
else police power in other countries
to protect such investments.

Hi FOR CONSTIPATION
Avoid Burns from

When you have Rheumatic or Muscu-

if you have cold coming on, try this
simple treatment. 1t is more convenient,
safer, cleaner and more effective than
mustard plaster.
Get bottle of Hoff's Liniment and ap-

cloth with Hoff's and apply to the pain

of this powerful liniment.
Hoff's is different from ordinary lini-
