HEALTH REPORT FOR 1899
REVEALS MUCH PROGRESS
DIR. H. r. DuPuy Stresses Fine
Cooperation Received From In
dividuals And All Agencies
DISEASE is HELD DOWN

A report of the Garrett County
health officer, DR.. H. R. DuPuy, for
the past year, shows considerable
progress in public health work. The
department, according to DR.. DuPuy,
received fine cooperation from all
officials and non-officials in the county
and also many individuals. Through
an increase in Federal and county
funds the staff added an additional
nurse and an additional clerk. A pub
lie health coordinating council was
organized with representatives from
various organizations in the county.
DR.. DuPuy reported the contagious
disease situation much better than in
former years. No cases of diphtheria
were reported, and he urged parents
to continue to immunize children
against this disease. There were no
outbreakes of scarlet fever and fewer
cases than in former years. The
work of the department and the U. S.
Public Health Service in immunizing
children under school age is to be con-
tinued
There were six cases of typhoid
fever, only two of which could be
traced to the same source. Con-
tinued improvement of sanitary facili
ties, water supplies and milk will be
stressed in 1910.
In tuberculosis there were 116 eX-
aminations, and 10 individuals were
admitted to the Hopemont sanitarium.
DR.. DuPuy stressed the fine coopera-
tion of the staff at the West Virginia
hospital.
Special classes were held for
nurses in maternity work and mid
wives were given special instruction
from September to December when
Miss Elizabeth Ferguson, maternity
consultant nurse, was here. There was
only one maternal death in 1889. I'm
corrected statistics show that 478
babies were born in the county dur
ing 1889. Nearly all were visited by
nurses before they were a month old.
There were 20 deaths of infants under
one year compared with 26 in 1888.
This in considered a favorable record.
The crippled children's program
continued as before with two clinics
held with total of 382 examinations
made by DR.. George Eaton and DR..
George Bennett. A number of these
cases were taken to Baltimore for
operations. The Civic club continued
its support of the program, furnish
ing transportation in many cases.
A sanitary officer here in the sum-
mer completed survey of the Deep
Creek Lake section, making a record
of all dwellings on or near the lake
and sanitary conditions of each. The
officer stressed the splendid coopera-
tion received from owners of cot
tages. A survey of the sanitary con-
dition of all schools was also made
with the School Board cooperating in
recommendations made.
Three meetings of physicians were
held during 1899. Dr. DuPuy pointed
out that the health department and
county physicians had worked togeth-
er in harmony on all mutual problems
and expressed regret at the passing
of DR.. N. l. Broadwater who had
| charge of venereal disease clinics for
the past four years.

Garrett Reduces Death Toll
From Automobile Accidents

A letter received at The Republi-

Maryland Traffic Safety Committee,
praises Garrett county for its fine
record in traffic safety in the past
year with a reduction in the death
toll from automobile accidents of so
percent.
Garrett had a fatality record in
1888 of six deaths. For. 1899 the list
was reduced to three. Congratula-
tions were extended from the COM
mittee and also from Governor
O'Conor.
