This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 
to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 
to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 
are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover.

TWENTY-FIFTH  ANNUAL  REPORT 


Indiana  State  Board  of  Health. 


Hon.  J.  Frank  Hanly,  Governor  of  Indiana: 

The  State  Board  of  Health  presents  herewith  its  twenty-fifth 
annual  report 

There  is  reported  herein  the  transactions  and  work  of  the 
Board,  an  account  of  expenditures  for  the  year  ending  October 
31,  ,  and  a  report  of  the  work  of  the  State  Laboratory  of 
Hygiene,  which  is  a  department  of  the  Board.  The  report  also 
contains  the  vital  statistics  for  the  calendar  year. 

TRANSACTIONS  AND  WORK  OF  THE  BOARD. 

The  State  Board  of  Health  now  exists  and  acts  under  the  health 
law  passed  in  .  There  are  five  members,  four  being  appointed 
by  an  appointing  board  composed  of  the  Governor,  the  Secretary  of 
State,  and  the  Auditor.  These  four  members  appoint  a  secretary, 
who  thereupon  becomes  a  member  of  the  Board.  All  members 
serve  for  four  years. 

Quarterly  meetings  shall  be  held,  and  the  Board  may  hold  as 
many  special  meetings  as  may  socm  to  it  proper.  During  this 
year  four  regular  and  four  special  meetings  were  held,  the  min- 
utes of  which  fully  set  forth  the  work  done. 

The  quarterly  reports  of  the  secretary  presented  at  tlie  regular 
quarterly  meetings  give  specific  accounts  of  his  office  and  field 
work.  It  will  be  noted  that  visits  are  made  from  time  to  time 
by  the  secretary  to  different  parts  of  the  State.  The  reasons  for 
making  the  same,  and  the  results  accomplished,  are  given  in 
detail  in  his  reports.  It  is  believed  that  these  visits  are  of  benefit 
to  the  health  cause,  for  the  people  so  assert  in  letters  and  com- 
es)

mimications  to  the  press,  and  medical  and  local  societies,  and 
teachers'  and  farmers'  institutes  which  have  been  addressed,  have 
always  passed  resolutions  of  thanks  for  the  advice  given  and  serv- 
ices rendered.  A  further  reason  for  believing  that  visits  made  by 
the  secretary  are  profitable  and  of  advantage  to  the  people  lies 
in  the  fact  that  one  hundred  and  sixty-seven  requests  were  re- 
ceived from  various  parts  of  the  State  for  inspection  of  sanitary 
conditions  and  advice  concerning  the  same.  The  requests  came 
from  the  governing  authorities  of  counties,  cities  and  towns,  from 
school  authorities  and  private  citizens. 

VITAL  STATISTICS. 

The  vital  statistics  are  collected  for  the  calendar  year.  They, 
therefore,  can  not  be  presented  until  after  December  31.  After 
all  reports  are  received  it  will  require  about  ninety  days  to 
arrange,  tabulate  and  analyze  the  data.  The  mortality  statistics 
are  accurate,  but  the  birth  and  disease  statistics  are  inaccurate. 
This  condition  is  explained  and  a  remedy  recommended  in  an- 
other place  in  this  report.  Original  certificates  of  death  are  re- 
ceived at  this  ofiice,  and  carefully  arranged  and  indexed,  and 
citizens  may  consult  the  same  and  secure  transcripts  without  fee. 
There  is  an  average  of  17  applications  per  week  for  transcripts 
of  death  records.  The  sanitary  usefulness  of  death  records  is 
applied  immediately  upon  receipt  of  the  same. 

EPIDEMICS. 

No  widespread  epidemics  are  recorded,  but,  of  course,  there 
were  a  number  of  local  epidemics.  The  same  are  specifically  set 
forth  in  the  special  report  on  vital  statistics. 

Smallpox  existed  every  month  in  the  year,  but  it  has  been  in 
mild  form  and  only  occasionally  fatal.  Prompt  quarantine  and 
general  vaccination  in  the  localities  where  it  appeared  has  always 
succeeded  in  extinguishing  it  The  State  Board  has  again  and 
again  informed  the  people  that  vaccination  is  the  only  safe  and 
practical  prophylaxis  for  smallpox. 

The  deaths  from  diphtheria  have  decreased  in  the  last  six  years 
as  follows :  ,  deaths  746 ;  ,  554 ;  ,  424 ;  ,  462 ; 
,  314;  ,  366.  This  decrease  we  attribute  almost  entirely 
to  the  now  general  use  of  diphtheria  antitoxin.     It  took  some 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


time  to  overcome  ignorant  opposition  and  the  prejudice  against 
the  remedy,  hut  now  the  people  generally  understand  the  situa- 
tion, and  by  demanding  its  use  tlie  good  results  are  secured.  It  is 
now  the  widespread  opinion  in  the  medical  world  that  antitoxin 
is  a  specific  against  diphtheria  if  administered  before  the  disease 
is  far  advanced,  and  that  the  only  reason  why  diphtheria  deaths 
are  recorded  is  because  many  cases  are  not  treated  until  the 
attack  has  continued  for  several  days.  The  prophylactic  use  of 
antitoxin  is  not  practiced  to  the  degree  it  should  be.  If  it  were 
vsed  in  all  outbreaks  for  immunizing,  the  number  of  cases  would 
be  greatly  diminished. 

There  were  fewer  scarlet  fever  deaths  and  fewer  cases  and  out- 
breaks for  the  year  ending  November  1,  than  in  the  same  period 
for  any  year  since  .  Typhoid  fever  also  shows  a  decrease 
by  the  same  comparison.  The  statistical  report  to  be  made  up 
after  December  31,  when  all  data  will  be  at  hand,  will  give  full 
details  of  diseases,  epidemics  and  deaths. 

STATE  LABORATORY  OF  HYGIENE. 

Especial  attention  is  invited  to  the  report  of  work  done  in  the 
State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene.  There  are  two  divisions  to  the 
laboratory &#; the  chemical  division  and  the  bacteriological  and  path- 
ological division.  The  last  is  devoted  entirely  to  disease  preven- 
tion work  and  the  first  to  hygienic  water  analyses  and  to  food 
and  drug  analyses.  We  feel  sure  that  the  work  of  the  laboratory 
pi  eves  fully  its  nsefuhiess;  indeed  it  is  a  true  economy  on  account 
of  its  disease  and  adulteration  prevention  work.  The  bacterio- 
logical and  pathological  division  has  been  termed  "the  life-saving 
sialion,"  and  the  chemical  division  "the  money'Saving  station." 

RECOMMENDATIONS. 

In  accordance  with  the  law,  which  makes  it  the  duty  of  the 
State  Board  of  Health  to  make  such  recommendations  as  to  health 
statutes  as  may  seem  proper,  we  recommend  as  follows: 

A  REGISTRATION  LAW. 

The  registration  law  passed  in  ,  and  under  which  the  mor- 
tality statistics  have  been  so  correctly  collected,  was  declared  un- 
constitutional by  the  Supreme  Court  in  February,  .     This

law  was  an  amendment  to  the  health  law  of  ,  and  it  was 
discovered  that  the  title  of  the  amended  law  was  incorrectly 
qnotcd  in  the  new  act,  one  line  being  omitted.  This  was  the  sole 
point  npon  which  the  decision  was  based.  As  the  law  of  , 
which  now'  became  operative,  contained  some  provisions  for  regis- 
tering deaths,  births  and  contagious  diseases,  the  Board  decided 
to  continue  the  system  which  prevailed  under  the  new  law,  and  to 
this  date  mortality  statistics  have  been  ccjllected  through  the 
momentum  acquired  from  the  law  of  . 

The  necessity  of  an  efficient  registration  law  plainly  exists,  and 
the  authority  and  power  conferred  upon  the  State  Board  of 
Health  for  its  enforcement  should  be  sufficient  in  every  way, 

SANITARY   SCHOOLHOUSES  AND   TEACHING   HYGIENE   IN  THE 
PUBLIC  SCHOOI^S. 

We  suggest  a  statute  requiring  tliat  all  schoolhouses  hereafter 
built  shall  conform  to  natural  sanitary  laws;  also  that  the  act 
should  contain  a  clause  requiring  that  hygiene  be  taught  in  the 
public  schools.  Not  less  than  10  per  cent,  of  school  moneys  are 
now  wasted  on  account  of  imsanitary  schoolhouses,  in  which  start 
most  of  our  epidemics,  and  in  wliich  are  laid  the  foundations  in 
many  for  consumption  and  other  diseases  in  after  life.  Massa- 
chusetts, Michigan  and  other  Stat(^s  have  statutes  of  the  character 
we  propose,  and  better  health  and  progress  among  the  school  chil- 
dren has  thus  been  secured. 

A  STATE  HOSPITAL  FOR  INDIGENT  CONSUMPTIVES. 

Massachusetts,  New  York,  Rhode  Island  and  others  have  pro- 
vided State  hospitals  for  consumptives,  and  Maryland,  Pennsyl- 
vania, Michigan  and  other  States  are  considering  the  matter. 
Both  humanity  and  economy  demand  such  institutions  in  every 
State.  At  present  fully  1,000  poverty-stricken  consumptives  are 
being  cared  for  at  public  expense  or  by  private  charity  in  Indiana, 
but  in  such  manner  as  to  spread  the  disease  and-  not  restore  to 
health  a  single  patient.  The  proposition  to  establish  a  State 
Hospital  for  indigent  consumptives  is  not  one  to  unnecessarily 
spend  money,  but  is  a  measure  to  more  wisely  exp^d  the  money 
now  devoted  to  caring  for  those  unfortunates.

We  believe  all  of  these  recommendations  are  wise,  and  would, 
if  put  in  force  by  the  State,  save  money  to  the  people  and  materi- 
ally promote  the  public  happiness. 

POLLUTION  OP  STREAMS,  WATER  SUPPLIES  AND  SEWERS. 

Indiana  is  an  inland  State,  and  is  fortunately  supplied  with 
numerous  streams  and  lakes,  and  except  in  the  central  and  south- 
em  portion  there  is  yet  abundance  of  ground  water.  It  is  appar- 
ent that  our  streams  and  lakes  are  valuable  assets,  and  should  be 
jealously  protected  from  pollution  or  other  destruction.  They  arc 
sources  of  beauty  and  refreshment  to  the  land,  sources  of  a  valu- 
able food  supply,  and  must  eventually  furnish  public  water  sup- 
plies. It  is  this  last  fact  which  makes  it  urgent  that  early  action 
be  taken  for  their  preservation. 

The  experience  of  the  Indianapolis  and  of  the  Muncie  Water 
companies  demonstrates  that  the  ground  water  is  limited,  is  grow- 
ing less  and  less,  and  is  inadequate  for  the  public  supply.  For 
a  few  years  both  of  the  cities  named  had  an  abundant  pure 
supply,  but  gradually  the  quantity  diminished  and  new  wells 
were  bored.  This  did  not  relieve  the  situation,  for  the  new  wells 
penetrated  the  same  water  bearing  stratum  as  the  old  ones,  and  no 
increase  in  quantity  was  secured. 

The  Muncie  Water  Company  relieved  the  situation  for  a  time 
by  making  up  the  deficiency  with  filtered  water  from  White 
River,  but  lately  the  oil  wells  above  Muncie  so  badly  polluted  the 
river  with  kerosene  products  that  it  was  impossible  to  filter  the 
water.  This  drove  the  Muncie  Company  to  dam  a  small  creek 
and  establish  a  water  shed.  It  is  certain,  however,  if  stream 
pollution  is  permitted  to  continue,  that  this  supply  for  Muncie 
can  not  be  depended  upon. 

The  Indianapolis  Water  Company  has  been  compelled  to  put  in 
extensive  filter  beds,  costing  five  or  six  hundred  thousand  dollars, 
to  filter  the  water  from  White  River.  This  filtered  water  is  at 
present  mixed  with  deep  well  water  (the  amount  of  the  latter 
diminishing  daily),  and  this  constitutes  the  Indianapolis  supply. 
The  lesson  is &#; Indianapolis  must  very  soon  depend  entirely  upon 
the  river,  and  if  the  gross  pollution  which  now  exists  is  permitted 
to  continue,  filtration  will  become  more  and  more  difficult  and 
expensive,  and  Indianapolis,  and  also  other  cities  on  the  shores

Id 

of  White  River,  will  be  sorely  injured,  possibly  to  a  degree  to  stop 
their  growth.  What  has  occurred  along  White  River  will  in  time 
occur  in  all  parts  of  the  State,  and  now  seems  to  be  the  time  to 
apply  the  remedy.  We  propose  a  law  similar  to  that  of  Massa- 
chusetts, where  these  same  problems  arose  some  years  ago,  and 
which  the  said  law  has  satisfactorily  solved.  This  law  should 
make  it  unlawful  to  deposit  sewage,  factory  wastes,  or  any  pollut- 
ing matter  into  streams  or  lakes,  and  it  should  provide  that  within 
a  certain  time  that  all  cities  and  towns  shall  dispose  of  their 
sewage  by  well  proven  methods  known  to  sanitary  science;  and 
that  all  factories  shall,  within  twelve  months  from  the  going  into 
effect  of  the  law,  dispose  of  their  wastes  in  a  sanitary  way.  All 
of  this  has  been  repeatedly  accomplished  in  other  States. 

As  cities  and  towns  are  continually  making  expensive  mistakes 
in  the  matter  of  establishing  public  water  supplies  and  in  building 
sewers  and  drains,  it  seems  wise  to  adopt  the  successful  method 
pursued  in  Ohio,  Massachusetts,  Pennsylvania,  and  other  States, 
to  prevent  such  mistakes,  with  their  consequent  money  loss  and 
sanitary  failure.  This  method  is  to  require  by  statutes  that  all 
plans  and  specifications  for  public  water  supplies,  and  for  sewers 
and  drains,  shall  be  submitted  for  the  approval  of  the  State  Board 
of  Health  before  the  same  may  be  constructed. 

For  the  State  Board  of  Health  to  properly  execute  a  law  of  this 
kind,  controlling  stream  pollution,  the  water  supplies  and  sewer 
construction,  a  sanitary  engineering  department  would  be  re- 
quired, and  therefore  said  law  would  necessarily  create  such  de- 
partment. There  should  be  a  competent  sanitary  engineer  ap- 
pointed by  the  State  Board,  and  a  proper  appropriation  given  for 
the  enforcement  of  the  act 

We  believe  a  wise  law  of  this  character  is  absolutely  necessary 
for  the  promotion  of  the  welfare  of  the  State,  and  would  be  an 
economic  measure,  and  for  these  reasons  we  propose  the  same. 
We  further  believe  that  the  protection  of  the  lakes  and  streams 
from  poflution-destruction,  is  a  subject  which  will  not  down,  and 
the  question  about  the  matter  is,  Shall  the  State  attend  to  it  now, 
or  do  so  after  disease,  death  and  pecuniary  loss  compel  action?

THE  rURE  FOOD  AND  DRUG  LAW. 

We  call  your  special  attention  to  the  report  of  the  chemical 
division  upon  the  work  done  in  the  enforcement  of  the  pure  food 
and  drug  law.  We  think  this  report  will  plainly  show  the  value 
of  the  department,  and  it  will  also  show  the  lameness  of  the 
present  law  as '  discovered  by  trials  in  the  courts.  Under  the 
present  law  it  must  be  proven  that  the  vendor  of  adulterated  foods 
and  drugs  knowingly  sold  or  had  in  his  possession  to  sell,  and  in 
the  case  of  preservatives,  it  must  every  time  be  proven  that  the 
special  preservative  used  is  injurious  to  health.  Until  these 
faults  are  removed,  we  can  not  hope  to  promptly  and  adequately 
punish  offenders.  We  therefore  recommend  the  repeal  of  all  laws 
and  parts  of  laws  pertaining  to  food  and  drug  adulteration,  and 
the  enactment  of  a  statute  embodying  the  main  principles  and 
features  of  the  national  pure  food  and  drug  law. 

The  water  work  of  the  chemical  laboratory  appears  to  be  of 
special  value.  'One  hundred  and  forty-six  public  water  supplies 
have  been  examined,  of  which  74  were  good,  43  bad,  and  29  of 
doubtful  character.  Five  hundred  and  forty-two  private  sup- 
plies were  analyzed,  including  deep  driven  and  bored  wells,  and 
shallow  driven  and  dug  wells.  Of  these,  236  were  good,  54  were 
suspicious,  and  202  were  bad.  These  results  are  indicative  of 
the  character  of  the  public  and  private  water  supplies  of  the 
State,  and  show  the  necessity  for  their  careful  supervision. 

We  hope  that  full  consideration  of  these  recommendations  will 
secure  your  support,  and  that  the  same  will  be  recommended  in 
your  message  to  the  Legislature. 

Approved  by  the  Board,  November  16,  ,  and  ordered  to  be 
submitted  to  the  Governor.

Present:    Drs.  Davis,  Eisenbeiss,  Tucker  and  Hurty. 
Meeting  called  to  order  by  the  President  at  12  m.    The  work  of

ADJOURNED  MEETING. 

December  15,  . 
Called  to  order  by  President  Davis. 
Present:     Drs.  Davis,  Eisenbeiss,  Tucker  and  Hurty. 
The  two  days'  meeting  of  the  Health  Officers'   School  were 
reviewed,  and  the  proceedings  ordered  written  out. 

The  following  resolution  after  the  discussion  was  adopted : 

llESOLUnON   CONCDRNING  THE   NATIONAL  PURE  POOD   LAW. 

Whereas,  Food  and  drug  adulteration  has  become  a  very  great 
evil,  causing  enormous  injury  to  the  health  and  life  of  the  people, 
and  also  causing  them  great  monetary  loss;  and 

Whereas,  It  is  certainly  true  that  the  State  food  and  drug  laws 
do  not  furnish  practical  protection  on  account  of  their  varying 
standards  and  requirements;  therefore  it  is 

Resolved,  That  the  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health,  which  is 
charged  with  the  enforcement  of  the  Indiana  pure  food  and  drug 
law,  most  respectfully  requests  the  Senators  and  Congressmen 
from  Indiana  to  give  their  support  to  the  Heybum  Bill,  now 
before  the  Congress  of  the  United  States. 

Passed  unanimously. 

Ordered,  That  no  more  equipment  or  apparatus  or  large  orders 
for  supplies  shall  be  purchased,  except  by  order  of  the  Board;  but 
the  Secretary  may  purchase  such  minor  supplies  as  are  necessary 
for  tlie  proper  conduct  of  the  laboratory.

QUARTERLY  REPORT  OF  SECRETARY. 

Comparatively  speaking,  smallpox  has  almost  disappeared  from 
the  State.  No  deaths  from  the  disease  occurred  for  the  last  three 
months,  and  only  straggling  mild  cases  over  the  State  have  been 
reported.  In  December  small  epidemics  (less  than  ten  cases) 
of  very  mild  form  occurred  in  Allen  County,  in  Fort  Wayne,  also 
in  a  railroad  camp  in  Johnson  Coimty.  Only  two  of  the  nine 
cases  in  the  camp  ceased  working  during  the  attack.  The  cases 
were  not  reported  for  some  time,  as  they  were  not  suspected  of 
being  smallpox.  Less  typhoid  occurred  in  the  last  calendar  quar- 
ter of    than  in  the  same  period  of  .  An  epidemic  was 
investigated  by  Dr.  Knabe  at  Cambridge  City,  and  full  report 
by  her  is. added  hereto.  Typhoid,  as  usual,  was  first  in  order  of 
area  of  prevalence  in  October  and  November.  Bronchitis  was 
first  in  December.  An  unusual  amount  of  tonsilitis  was  reported 
in  November.

Vincennes,  November  1. &#; The  State  Charities  Association  hold 
annual  meetings  in  various  parts  of  the  Rtatr.  This  year  the  five 
days'  meeting  was  held  in  Vincennes.  Addresses  were  made  on 
the  diflFerent  days  by  the  Governor,  the  Lieutenant-Grovemor,  and 
many  eminent  men  from  other  States.  The  evening  of  November 
1  was  given  up  to  a  consideration  of  tuberculosis.  The  principal 
speaker  of  the  evening  was  Dr.  Frank  Billings,  of  Chicago.  In 
his  address  he  made  an  argument  for  the  creation  of  a  State  hos- 
pital for  consumptives,  which  was  based  ^principally  upon  the 
experiences  of  physicians.  He  told  in  detail  of  the  distressing 
and  heart-rending  incidents  met  with  in  general  practice,  and 
how  it  is  possible  for  the  State  to  save  hundreds  of  lives  annuall^y ; 
also  prevent  the  breaking  up  of  homes  and  the  making  of  widows 
and  orphans.  "The  first  step,"  said  Dr.  Billings,  "in  the  fight 
against  tulx*rculosis  by  the  State,  is  the  establishing  of  a  State 
hospital  where  poor  and  deserving  people  smitten  with  the  disease 
may  be  taken  and  cured.  Tf  the  State  is  not  interested  in  saving 
helpless  women  and  children,  who  shall  be  interested  ?  Tf  the 
State  is  not  interested  in  protecting  and  preserving  the  homes, 
who  shall  be?  If  the  State  is  not  interested  in  preventing  the 
creation  of  widowhood  and  orphanage,  who  shall  be  interested  ?" 
Your  secretary  was  the  second  speaker,  and  was  assigned  the 
duty  of  presenting  the  consumption  statistics  of  the  State.     This

was  done  by  charts  and  tables  drawn  from  the  statistics  of  the 
State  Board  of  Health. 

Columbus,  November  14- &#; -The  Board  of  Health  of  the  city  of 
Columbus  invited  me  to  meet  with  them  on  November  14  to 
consider  the  water  supply  of  the  city  and  needed  sanitary  re- 
forms. At  the  same  time  I  was  invited  to  deliver  an  address  in 
the  evening  before  the  Women's  Sanitary  Association.  In  the 
matter  of  the  public  water  supply,  the  board  was  advised  to  adopt 
filtration  works  and  not  deep  wells.  Columbus  has  an  unfailing 
soft  water  supply  in  the  east  fork  of  White 'River.  It  simply 
needs  fQtration.  Some  members  of  the  council  and  many  citizens 
advocate  deep  wells;  the  objections  to  which  are  that  they  always 
furnish  hard  water  and  invariably  in  time  give  out,  as  has  been  the 
case  at  Indianapolis,  Muncie,  and  Fort  Wayne.  This  is  also  true 
of  numerous  cities  throughout  the  United  States.  Columbus  has 
only  a  partial  sewage  system.  It  is  very  small  indeed  for  the 
size  and  wealth  of  the  community.  The  board  was  advised  to 
advocate  the  building  of  a  sanitary  system  of  sewers.  The  proper 
procedure  would  be  to  employ  an  expert  sewer  engineer  to  visit 
the  sewer  system  leading  to  every  lot.  It  would,  of  course,  be  im- 
possible to  build  this  system  all  at  once,  but  it  would  be  possible 
to  gradually  construct  it 

In  the  evening  at  the  First  Christian  Church  I  addressed  the 
Women's  Sanitary  Association,  making  suggestions  how  the  said 
association  might  proceed  to  better  aifairs  and  conditions  in  Co- 
lumbus, and  also  presenting  in  a  general  way  the  tuberculosis  con- 
ditions in  the  State. 

Kokomo,  November  17. &#; Two  mild  cases  of  smallpox  were  dis- 
covered at  the  borders  of  the  city,  and  there  was  a  dispute  among 
the  physicians  as  to  the  nature  of  the  disease.  For  this  reason 
the  State  Board  of  Health  was  called  upon  for  a  visit  Upon 
arrival  I  was  taken  to  see  the  cases.  They  proved  to  be  unques- 
tionably smallpox,  and  all  precautions  were  taken  accordingly. 

Mooresville,  November  23. &#; In  answer  to  an  urgent   
message  from  Dr.  Brackney,  Health  OflBcer,  I  went  to  Mooresville 
to  see  a  case  of  supposed  smallpox.  The  patient  was  32  years  old, 
and  he  proved  to  have  a  plain  attack  of  severe  chiokenpox.  He 
had  an  excellent  vaccination  mark,  and  all  of  the  symptoms 
pointed  to  chickenpox  rather  than  to  smallpox.     No  quarantine

28 

was  held,  and  there  was  no  increase  of  cases.  The  children  in 
the  house  had  all  recently  had  chickcnpox  a  few  weeks  before, 
and  this  man,  a  boarder  in  the  house  and  a  traveler,  had  very 
likely  contracted  it  from  the  children.  He  had  never  had  the 
disease  before. 

New  York,  November  26. &#; Permission  granted,  I  visited  New 
York,  November  26,  and  remained  there  four  days,  attending  the 
American  Tuberculosis  Exhibition. 

AMERICAN  TUBKHCULOSIS  EXHIBITION. 

The  American  Tuberculosis  Exhibition,  which  opened  Novem- 
ber 27  and  closed  December  9,  was  under  the  auspices  of  the 
National  Association  for  the  Study  and  Prevention  of  Tuber- 
culosis and  the  Committee  on  the  Prevention  of  Tuberculosis  of 
the  Charity  Organization  Society.  The  exhibition  was  in  the 
west  wing  of  the  American  Museum  of  Natural  History  on 
Seventy-seventh  Street,  near  Central  Park.  The  object  of  the 
exhibition  was  to  show  the  methods  that  are  being  adopted" 
throughout  this  country  and  in  Europe  to  prevent  and  cure  con- 
sumption. On  the  night  of  November  27,  before  an  audience 
of  at  least  1,500,  in  tlie  lecture  amphitheater  of  the  Museum 
building,  addresses  were  made  by  Dr.  Thomas  Darlington,  Health 
Commissioner  of  New  York;  Mr.  Morris  K.  Jessup,  philanthro- 
pist; the  President  of  the  Museum,  and  Mr.  Talcott  Williams, 
editor  of  the  Philadelphia  Press.  On  Wednesday  evening,  No- 
vember 20,  another  large  audience  assembled  in  the  Auditorium, 
and  tlie  subject  of  tlic  evening  was  '^Tuberculosis  and  the  Labor 
Unions."  This  meeting  was  addrosned  by  several  Libor  leaders, 
among  them.  J.  W.  Sullivan  and  Prof.  Graham  Taylor.  ^Ir. 
Samuel  Gompers  was  sick  and  could  not  attend.  This  meeting 
was  also  addressed  by  the  well-known  leader  in  philanthropy,  Mr. 
Edward  T.  Divine.  The  speakers  traced  out  clearly  the  relation- 
ship which  the  laboring  classes  have  with  tuberculosis.  Mr. 
Sullivan  in  his  speech  made  plain  how  the  rich  people  arc 
directly  and  immediately  interested  in  the  suppression  of  the  dis- 
ease. It  was  ^fr.  Sullivan  who  told  the  story,  which  I  foimd 
was  well  known  in  New  York,  a]H)ut  Mrs.  ^IcKinley's  fine  dress 
being  made  in  a  sweatshop  by  consumj)tive  women.  It  was 
supposed   all   the   time   that   this   dress   was   constructed    in   the

29 

magnificent  Fifth  Avenue  establishment  from  which  it  was  pur- 
chased. The  address  of  Prof.  Taylor  was  exactly  to  the  point, 
was  eloquent,  and  his  plea  for  the  life  and  health  of  the  laboring 
classes  aroused  much  enthusiasm.  Dr.  Divine,  scholar  and  phil- 
anthropist, who  gives  his  whole  life  to  charity  work,  delivered 
an  address  which  was  not  second  in  eflFectiveness  to  that  of  Prof. 
Taylor.  On  the  evening  of  December  1  another  public  meeting 
was  held  in  the  Museum  auditorium.  A  crowd  assembled,  and 
not  less  than  2,000  were  present.  Dr.  Herman  Biggs  presided. 
The  speakers  were  Dr.  Flick,  superintendent  of  the  Henry 
Phipps^  Institute ;  Dr.  Trudeau,  of  the  Saranac  Sanatorium ; 
Dr.  Bowditch,  of  the  Sharon,  Mass.,  Sanatorium,  and  Drs.  Evans 
and  Jacobi,  of  Chicago.  There  were  present  Dr.  Jacobs,  of 
Baltimore,  and  several  of  the  faculty  of  Johns  Hopkins  Uni- 
versity; also  Drs.  Pruden,  Northrup,  Knopf,  and  others  repre- 
sentative of  the  New  York  City  medical  profession.  Philadel- 
phia was  also  fully  represented,  and  prominent  among  the  gentle- 
men from  that  city  was  Dr.  Ravenel,  who  has  made  the  brilliant 
experiments  \ipon  tuberculosis  infection,  through  the  intestinal 
tract  On  the  stage  sat  the  millionaire  philanthropist,  Henry 
Phipps,  who  will  give  $5,000,000  for  the  institution  which  bears 
his  name.  Mr.  J.  Pierpont  Morgan,  who  is  the  treasurer  of  the 
Exhibition  Committee,  was  present  in  the  audience.  This  meet- 
ing on  Friday  evening,  December  1,  was  of  such  moment  as  to 
warrant  the  term  "epoch  making." 

THE  EXHIBITION. 

Upon  entering  the  exhibition  room,  the  first  exhibit  to  attract 
attention  was  a  section,  full  size,  pf  a  cell  in  the  Clinton  Prison. 
This  cell  illustrated  ventilation  and  all  sanitary  features.  Dr. 
Bansom,  physician  of  tlic  Clinton  Prison,  was  present,  and  in 
another  part  of  the  room  exhibited  statistical  charts,  photographs, 
and  drawings  illustrating  how  tuberculosis  had  been  expelled 
from  the  prison  and  was  no  longer  produced  by  living  in  that 
institution.  The  New  York  City  Board  of  Health  exhibit  was 
very  extensive  and  complete,  and  illustrated  the  work  it  is  doing 
with  ninety-eight  large  frames  showing  charts,  pictures,  diagrams, 
blanks,  and  the  like.  Dr.  Biggs  estimates  that  85  per  cent,  of  all 
tuberculosis  cases  arc  re])ort('d.    Of  tlic^  remaining  15  per  cent,  ten

never  call  a  phj-sician,  and  the  other  five  is  the  result  of  neglect  on 
the  part  of  practitioners.  We  might  ask :  When  will  it  b©  possible 
to  make  such  a  report  as  this  in  Indianapolis  ?  Further  illustrations 
of  the  work  of  the  New  York  Board  of  Health  were  shown  in 
two  large  books  two  feet  square  and  six  inches  thick.  These 
books  showed  by  pictures,  charts,  statistics  and  running  account, 
the  work  of  the  City  Board  in  its  fight  against  tuberculosis  since 
the  same  was  begun.  The  New  York  Bellevue  and  Allied  Hos- 
pitals had  striking  exhibits.  One' of  these  was  "a  typical  dark 
interior  bedroom,  one  of  360,000  in  New  York  city,  as  the  visit- 
ing nurses  see  them."  The  above  was  the  sign  over  this  repro- 
duction. The  bedstead,  bed  clothing,  and  indeed  everything  in 
the  room,  were  transferred  from  a  real  case.  Of  course,  the  arti- 
cles had  been  disinfected,  but  the  room  was  exactly  like  those 
found  in  the  tenements,  minus  the  dirt  By  the  side  of  this 
exhibit  was  another  of  the  same  room  after  it  had  been  re- 
modeled and  alterations  effected  by  the  visiting  nurses  of  the 
tuberculosis*  clinic  of  Bellevue  and  Allied  Hospitals  and  by  the 
Tenement  House  Department.  In  the  remodeled  rodm  a  window 
had  been  cut  through,  the  room  itself  made  clean,  papered  with 
light  colored  paper,  and  made  at  least  50  per  cent,  more  habitable. 
The  New  York  City  Tenement  Department  represented  its  work 
by  two  large  cabinets  of  41  leaves  each,  showing  photographs, 
four  on  each  leaf,  on  both  sides.  This  made  eight  to  a  leaf,  204 
photographs  in  all.  These  represented  tenement  house  condi- 
tions. This  association  also  showed  24  frames  2  by  3  feet,  which 
made  plain  how  diificult  it  was  for  the  poor  to  live  in  New  York, 
and  how  productive  of  disease  such  methods  of  living  must  be. 
Other  exhibits  illustrative  of  tl]e  above  conditions  of  tuberculosis 
were  made  by  the  Presbyterian  Hospital  Dispensary  and  the 
Gouverneur  Hospital,  the  St.  Joseph  Hospital  for  Consumptives, 
the  Bellevue  Hospital,  the  New  York  State  Hospital  for  Incipient 
Consumptives,  the  Stony  Wold  Sanatorium,  the  Loomis  Sana- 
torium, Sanatorium  Gabriels,  Saranac  Lake  Hospital,  Toronto 
Free  Hospital,  Moskoka  Sanatorium,  Colorado  Association

torium, Pennsylvania;  Johns  Hopkins  Hospital,  Tuberculosis 
Department,  showing  the  Phipps  Dispensary;  Visiting  Nurses'

the  Pottenger  Sanatorium  of  California,  Craigmore  Sanatorium, 
Colorado  National  Jewish  Hospital,  Maine  State  Sanatorium,

Side  Sanatorium,  Cal. ;  Maryland  State  Board  of  Health,  Massa- 
chusetts State  Board  of  Health,  and  the  Indiana  State  Board  of 
Health. 

To  detail  all  of  these  exhibits  would,  of  course,  be  exceedingly 
tiresome,  but  to  see  them  would  be  interesting  and  instructive,  as 
I  found  it  to  be.  Dr.  Biggs  remarked  that  tlie  growth  of  the 
work  of  preventing  tuberculosis  astonished  him.  "What  we  see 
before  us,"  said  he,  "has  all  developed  within  the  last  twelve 
years,  and  it  represents  a  work  of  humanity  and  for  medicine 
which  is  inestimable."  There  were  exhibited  models  of  sleeping 
shacks,  at  least  a  score  of  different  methods  of  disposing  of  sputum 
in  a  sanitary  way,  and  there  were  also  large  models  in  plaster 
of  tenement  blocks  in  New  York,  as  they  appeared  before  they 
were  torn  down,  and  again  as  they  appear  after  being  built  in 
accordance  with  the  new  tenement  law  of  the  city.  The  Tene- 
ment Commission  of  New  York  has  the  power  to  condemn  build- 
ings and  to  force  their  demolition.  They  can  not,  however,  com- 
pel rebuilding,  but  if  the  owner  does  rebuild,  tluu  the  tenement 
must  be  constructed  according  to  certain  principles  laid  down  in 
the  law,  and  which  are  specifically  prescril)ed  by  the  Commission. 
The  immense  factor  of  unsanitary  tenements  in  the  production 
of  disease  has  only  to  be  mentioned  to  be  admitted  and  under- 
stood. The  plaster  models  of  the  old  tenement  building  occupied 
a  table  4  by  2  feet,  and  were  in  exact  proportion.  The  rentals 
from  this  one  block,  as  represented  in  the  m^odel,  amounted  to 
$115,000  per  year.  This  was  called  the  "Lung  Block,"  and  be- 
longed principally  to  the  Trinity  Church  Corporation.  It  is  this 
corporation  which  put  up  the  strongest  opposition  to  the  passage 
of  the  law  creating  the  Tenement  House  Commission.  The  model 
in  plaster  showing  the  new  buildings  was  on  a  table  5  by  7  feet, 
^iid  by  looking  in  at  the  windows  it  was  plain  how  every  room

32 

was  provided  with  li^ht  and  air.  It  is  the  belief  of  the  tenement 
workers  that  the  providing  of  pens  and  awful  quarters  increases 
pauperism  and  miserable  living  and  does  not,  as  is  contended  by 
the  owners  of  these  awful  tenement  blocks,  provide  shelter  for 
those  who  would  otherwise  be  shelterless. 

The  pathological  exhibit  was  not  so  extensive  as  that  shovm  at 
the  Baltimore  meeting  in  January,  .  It  was,  however,  as 
much  to  the  point.  The  Phipps  Institute  exhibited  45  specimens, 
showing  as  many  tissues  infected  with  tuberculosis.  Pruden, 
Larkin,  Wilson,  Delafield  and  Wood  made  an  interesting  exhibit 
of  acid-fast  bacteria,  to  which  class  tubercle  organisms  belong,  and 
all  had  many  pathological  specimens.  Dr.  Pruden  exhibited  seven 
specimens  of  lungs  which  were  labeled  "Carbon  Lungs."  The 
placard  announced  that  most  of  the  specimens  were  taken  from 
persons  who  had  died  from  other  diseases  than  tuberculosis,  but 
whose  lungs  were  found  to  be  filled  with  soot,  making  them 
black.-  With  these  lungs  were  exhibited  those  of  an  Eskimo  and 
of  a  young  child,  showing  how  the  kings  of  a  human  being  look 
when  normal.  The  Eskimo  was  accidentally  killed,  and  never 
lived  in  a  region  where  soot  is  known.  Dr.  Pruden  also  exhibited 
a  gelatin  plate  with  the  following  notice:  "The  scattering  of 
bacteria  in  the  air  when  sneezing."  In  this  notice  was  printed 
the  following:  "In  sneeziug,  a  fine  spray  or  fluid  from  the  nose 
or  throat  is  driven  into  the  air.*  In  this  way  the  air  for  two 
or  three  feet  in  front  of  the  person  who  sneezes  or  coughs  without 
covering  mouth  and  nose,  may  be  contaminated.  If  he  be  a 
consumptive,  these  secretions  may  contain  tubercle  bacilli.  This 
specimen  shows  what  was  coughed  four  feet  aWay  when  a 
student  coughed  and  sneezed  after  rinsing  mouth  and  nose  with 
a  culture  of  prodigiosus.  The  red  spots  growing  luxuriantly 
upon  the  plate  make  plain  the  contamination  of  the  atmosphere 
by  coughing  and  sneezing."  Other  plates  exhibited  by  Dr. 
Prud(?n  show  how^  flies  carry  tubercle  bacilli  on  their  feet.  Plies 
were  permitted  to  feed  upon  sputum,  and  then  were  placed  in  a 
glass  box,  the  air  of  which  was  sterile,  and  allowed  to  walk  over 
the  gelatin  plates.  On  some  plates  tubercle  bacilli  were  growing, 
and  on  others  bacillus  prodigiosus,  which,  as  v/o  know,  makes  a 
more  striking  illustration. 

The  Saranac  Laboratory  showed  cultures  in  tubes  and  bottles

33 

of  tubercle  bacilli,  also  illustrating  the  chemical  composition  of 
this  organism  by  showing  in  proportion  amounts  of  wax,  acids, 
fat,  tissue,  etc.,  which  constitute  the  bacillus.  To  illustrate  the 
enormous  scale  upon  which  these  experiments  were  conducted, 
where  a  pound  of  tubercular  bacilli  must  be  grown,  two 
ounces  of  powdered  bacilli  were  shown.  Dr.  Trudeau  also 
showed  tuberculin,  and  bacilli  emulsions.  Conspicuously  posted 
in  large  letters  on  a  banner  was  the  following  resolution  passed 
in  regular  meeting  by  the  New  York  Medical  Association : 

"Whereas,  There  is  no  specific  medicine  for  tuberculosis  known, 
and  the  so-called  cures  and  specifics  and  specialmethods  of  treat- 
ment widely  advertised  in  the  daily  papers  are,  in  the  opinion  of 
this  Society,  without  special  value  and  do  not  at  all  justify  the 
extravagant  claims  made  for  them,  and  serve  chiefly  to  enrich 
their  promoters  at  the  expense  of  poor,  and  frequently  ignorant 
or  credulous  consumptives ;  therefore 

"Eesolved,  That  a  public  announcement  be  made  that  it  is  the 
unanimous  opinion  of  this  Society  that  there  exists  no  specific 
medicine  for  the  treatment  of  pulmonary  tuberculosis;  that  no 
cure  can  be  expected  from  any  kind  of  medicine  or  method  ex- 
cept the  regular  accepted  treatment  which  relies  mainly  upon  pure 
air  and  nourishing  food." 

Cambridge  City,  December  8. &#; Upon  invitation  from  the  town 
authorities  I  visited  Cambridge  City  to  confer  with  them  upon 
various  public  health  affairs  and  especially  in  regard  to  typhoid 
fever,  an  epidemic  of  this  disease  having  prevailed  very  lately. 
It  was  also  arranged  that  at  the  time  of  my  visit  I  should  address 
the  Township  Teachers'  Association  and  citizens.  With  Dr.  J. 
B.  Allen,  Health  Officer,  I  visited  twelve  premises  where  typhoid 
fever  existed  or  had  existed.  All  but  two  of  these  were  found  to 
be  exceedingly  unsanitary ;  just  the  kind  of  places  where  typhoid 
should  prevail.  The  disposal  of  pewage  is  exclusively  by  the  pit 
method,  there  being  no  sewers  in  the  town.  The  evils  of  this 
method  were  gone  into  extensively,  and  the  town  council  was 
urged  to  at  least  begin  the  building  of  a  proper  sanitary  sewer 
system.  As  is  always  the  case  in  such  instances,  T  suggested 
that  a  competent  sanitary  engineer  be  engaged  to  lay  out  the 
entire  town  in  a  comprehensive  system  of  sanitary  sewers,  and 
that  the  town  construct  the  system  as  rapidly  as  finances  would

permit  Where  sewage  disposal  is  in  pits,  open  to  the  air  and 
polltiting  the  soil,  there  typhoid  fever  will  be.  In  all,  twenty-four 
samples  of  water  were  analyzed  from  Cambridge  City,  and  of 
this  number  fourteen  were  found  to  be  badly  polluted,  two  were 
suspicious,  and  the  others  passable. 

Before  the  Township  Teachers'  Association  I  spoke  upon 
"What  Teachers  Could  Do  to  Benefit  Pupils  by  Sanitary  Meth- 
ods." The  address  was  very  kindly  received,  and  a  resolution  of 
thanks  and  confidence  was  passed. 

Lafayette,  December  5. &#; On  account  of  an  urgent   
message  from  Dr.  TTiner,  County  Health  Officer,  I  visited  Lafay- 
ette to  settle  a  dispute  in  regard  to  the  diagnosis  of  cases  of 
smallpox.  Upon  arrival  I  found  south  of  the  city,  in  the  country 
about  three  miles,  a  family  of  four,  all  afflicted  with  variola. 
Three  of  the  cases  were  mild  indeed,  and  the  fourth  could  not  be 
called  severe.  Quarantine  was  established,  vaccination  recom- 
mended, and  all  other  precautions  taken. 

Delphi,  December  12. &#; This  visit  was  made  to  confer  with  the 
authorities  in  regard  to  needed  public  sanitary  works.  Delphi 
has  an  excellent  water  supply  from  deep  wells,  but  no  sewers. 
Sewage  disposal  is  affected  entirely  by  pits.  The  usual  argument 
against  this  method  was  presented ;  also  the  usual  advice  given 
that  the  city  employ  an  expert  engineer  to  lay  out  the  place  in  a 
comprehensive  system  of  sanitary  sewers,  the  same  to  be  built  as 
rapidly  as  finances  would  permit.  The  authorities  were  also 
urged  to  give  strong  support  to  the  Health  Officer  in  his  efforts 
to  raise  the  standard  of  public  health. 

In  the  evening  T  addressed  the  Oracle  Club  in  the  auditorium 
of  the  city  high  school.  The  title  of  the  lecture  was  "Public 
Health  Is  Public  AVealth,"  and  was  illustrated  by  lantern  slides. 
The  lecture  was  well  received,  and  a  vote  of  thanks  given,  to- 
gether with  a  resolution  of  confidence  in  the  State  Board  of 
Health  and  praise  for  its  work. 

REPORT  OF  TYPHOID  FEVER  EPIDEMIC  AT  CAMBRIDGE  CITY. 
INDIANA,  INVESTIGATFTD  BY  DR.  HELENE  KNABE. 

Pursuant  to  the  ordor  of  the  State  Board  of  Henlth,  the  undersigned 
went  to  Cambridjr<»  City,  Novom])or  11.  10or>.  to  invest i>?jite  the  epidemic 
of  typhoid  fever  which  had  been  reported  from  there.  This  investigation 
disclosed  tho  following  facts:

Caiulfi'idge  City  has  a  population  numbering  1,700,  is  situated  on  White 
Water  Kiver,  and  part  of  the  town  is  bisected  by  a  small  canal.  The 
btreetfi  are  fairly  kept  and  reasonably  dry. 

There  is  no  general  system  of  sewage  in  this  town,  but  some  of  the 
residents  whose  lots  border  on  the  canal  have  connected  their  stables  ami 
outhouses  with  the  latter,  and  the  sewage  is  washed  into  the  water. 
These,  however,  represent  only  a  very  small  percentage,  and  in  the  larger 
part  of  the  town  the  surface  privy  is  the  only  means  for  the  disposal  of 
lilth.  During  the  last  summer  this  condition  resulted  in  a  singular  boy- 
cott, because  the  farmers  objected  to  having  the  vaults  emptied  intg 
their  property,  and  as  a  result  the  filth  of  the  whole  town  accumulated 
for  several  months,  unfortunately  through  the  hottest  season,  when  flies 
were  plentiful.  All  the  wells  in  Cambridge  City  are  very  shallow,  usually 
from  sixteen  to  twenty  feet,  penetrating  only  into  the  gravel  and  only 
protecting  the  people  from  drinking  the  immediate  surface  water. 

At  times,  for  instance  during  heavy  rains,  or  when  the  river  is  high, 
the  canal  overflows  and  floods  a  large  area  of  the  tract  surrounding  the 
canal.  Including  a  lot  upon  which  the  garbage  of  the  town  is  dumped. 
This  place  is  very  unsightly  and  malodorous  at  all  times. 

Cambridge  City  is  supplied  with  water  works,  but  this  water  is  not 
used  for  drinking  puri>oses,  because  the  water  from  the  canal  occaslomilly 
gets  into  the  pipes,  1)adly  polluting  the  supply.  In  fact,  one  of  the  cases 
sick  at  tiie  present  time  is  known  to  have  been  infected  through  drinking 
water  which  came  through  one  of  the  water  works  pipes. 

From  the  records  of  the  Health  OflScor  1  learned  that  there  had  been 
two  cases  of  typhoid  fever  reix)rted  during  July.  Anotlier  case  was  re- 
ported on  September  1.  These  three  ca.ses  soon  recovered  and  I  was  not 
able  to  see  the  persons.  At  the  present  time  there  are  eight  cases  in 
various  stages  of  the  disease.  Four  persons  have  recovered  from  slight 
attacks  of  typhoid  fever,  but  I  was  able  to  make  a  iK)sitive  diagnosis  by 
the  Widal  test.  Two  deaths  have  occurred  so  far.  Raymond  Goodwin, 
who  died  October  15,  and  Mrs.  Brier,  who  died  November  10.  Some  of 
I  he  cases  can  not  be  traced  to  any  definite*  source,  and  It  is  my  opinion 
that  flies  are  responsible  in  these  instances.  The  conditions  surrounding 
some  iiouseliolds  are  so  unsanitary  that  they  are  a  menace  to  the  whole 
community.  In  one  instance  a  family  consisting  of  a  father,  mother  and 
six  children  ranging  In  age  from  one  to  twelve  years,  live  in  a  miserable 
little  house  made  on  the  order  of  a  woodshed,  with  a  tiny  kitclien  added. 
The  house  has  two  rooms,  one  bedroom  just  large  enough  to  hold  two 
plain  double  beds  and  leave  a  space  of  two  feet  between  beds  and  wall. 
The  other  room  contains  an  old  lounge,  a  stove,  two  chairs  and  a  baby 
carriage,  and  is  not  large  enough  to  accommodate  tlie  whole  family  at 
one  time.  Either  one  of  the  rooms  has  only  one  window,  which,  need- 
less to  say.  Is  never  opened.  Bedding  was  given  to  the  pc»ople  a  short 
time  ago  by  the  "Charity  Organization  of  Cam])ridgo  City."  The  father, 
James  Goodwin,  and  two  of  the  cliildreu.  Mary,  ten,  and  Mamie,  eight 
years  old,  are  sick  with  typhoid  fever.  The  children  are  recovering, 
while  the  father  was  at  the  height  of  the  disease  at  the  time  of  my  visit. 
The  whole  house  is  in  an  extremely  fllthy  condition.  The  way  these 
people  live  is  best  sliown  l)y  a  romarlv  wlilch  one  of  the  children  nuide

some  'time  ago  when  asked  if  Mamie  slept  alone,  as  the  physician  had 
directed.  The  child  Sciid,  "Oh,  3'es,  nobody  slcei^s  with  her  except  mama, 
baby  and  my  other  sister." 

The  surroundings  of  this  house  are  as  bad  as  they  can  possibly  be.  A 
very  dirty  hogpen  and  an  outhouse  in  oven  a  worse  condition  are  about 
sixty-five  feet  away  and  on  a  considerably  lower  level  than  the  well, 
which  is  a  few  feet  frojn  the  house.  The  ground  is  strewn  with  filth  for 
many  feet  around.  These  people  did  not  disinfect  anything,  even  though 
the  physician  who  attended  the  case  stated  that  he  gave  them  disin- 
fectants and  instructed  them  in  their  use. 

The  schoolhouse  of  Cambridge  City  is  a  three-story  brick,,  in  wliich 
nine  rooms  are  used  for  teaching  purposes  every  day.  It  is  heated  by 
furnace,  but  there  is  no  system  of  ventilation.  The  rooms  on  the  third 
floor  are  used  for  the  high  school  pupils  and  the  lower  grades  are  on  the 
first  and  second  floors.  I  also  inspected  the  outhouse,  finding  it  in  a 
very  unsanitary- condition.  There  is  no  system  of  fiushing  it  and  the 
odor  was  vei-y  bad.  It  was  stated  that  disinfection  was  practiced  twice 
a  week,  but  I  advised  that  it  be  done  every  day  regularly.  The  vault  is 
cemented  and  connected  by  a  pipe  with  the  river.  A  sample  of  water 
from  the  well  in  the  schoo!  yard  was  collected  for  examination. 

During  my  stay  at  Cambridge  City  I  made  inspections  at  different 
houses  situated  at  a  low  level,  and  found  in  two  of  them  patients  suffer- 
ing of  tuberculosis.  Another  case  of  suspected  tuberculosis  was  referred 
to  me  by  one  of  the  physicians  for  diagnosis.  The  physical,  as  well  as 
the  examination  of  the  sputum,  showed  the  case  to  be  far  advanced. 
Two  other  cases  suspected  of  having  typhoid  fever  gave  negative  Widal 
reaction. 

On  Friday,  November  17,  I  inspected  the  Sunny  Side  Dairy,  managed 
by  Mr.  Moffitt.  The  stable  was  in  bad  condition,  lacking  the  gutter. 
Horses  w;ere  kept  in  the  same  stable  and  tlie  ground  in  front  of  the  door 
was  soaked  with  the  seepage  from  the  stable,  making  it  almost  impossible 
to  get  into  It.  A  very  dirty  trougli  was  used  to  water  the  cows.  The 
milk  cooler  as  well  as  the  buckets  and  bottles,  are  kept  in  a  box  outside 
the  hous<%  where  they,  of  course,  will  be  aired  well,  but  are  also  open  to 
the  dust.  The  well  is  near  the  house  and  only  about  35  to  40  feet  away 
from  a  privy  that  is  no  credit  to  the  owner  of  the  place.  I  went  also 
to  the  Jersey  Dairy,  in  charge  of  Mr.  Coop.  The  place  is  situated  on  a 
high  ridge  and  the  surroundings  as  good  as  could  be  requirc^d.  The  stable 
gives  shelter  to  twenty-five  cows.  In  one  corner  of  the  largo  square  build- 
ing some  horses  were  kept,  but  they  are  entirely  remote  from  the  cows. 
The  cows  are  watered  from  a  spring  in  the  woods,  which  is  well  pro- 
tected and  is  not  likely  to  be  polluted.  The  milkhouse  is  scrupulously 
clean  and  is  provi<led  with  a  cooler  according  to  the  law,  and  the  whole 
place  is  kept  as  well  as  can  be  under  the  circumstances.  Mr.  Coop  asked 
to  be  given  a  copy  of  tlie  rules  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  governing 
the  operation  of  dairies. 

Summary. &#; Numl>er  of  patients  visited,  eighteen;  cases  of  typhoid 
fever,  twelve;  tuberculosis,  throe  far  advanced  cases  and  one  incipient 
case;  lagrippo,  two;  Widal  tests,  seven;  positive,  five;  negative,  two; 
dairies  inspected,  two;  one  schoolhouse  inspected;  samples  of  water  sent 
to  Laboratoiy  of  Hygiene,  ton;  many  typhoid  circulars  distributed.

THE  THIRD  ANNUAL  HEALTH  OFFICERS  SCHOOL   FOR   TOWN 

OFFICERS. 

The  third  Annual  School  for  Town  Health  Officers  was  held 
in  Indianapolis  December  14  and  15.  All  town  officers  were 
summoned  as  usual  and  attended.  The  Claypool  Hotel  was  head- 
quarters, and  all  sessions  were  held  in  the  auditorium  of  the 
hotel.  The  first  session  was  promptly  called  to  order  December 
14,  at  10  a.  m.,  by  Dr.  F.  A.  Tucker  of  the  State  Board  of 
Health.  The  first  paper  was  entitled  "Insects  and  Disease," 
and  was  read  by  Dr.  Hurty.  This  paper  was  discussed  for  fif- 
teen minutes,  and  then  a  lecture  was  given  by  Prof.  Severance 
Burrage,  entitled  "The  Science  of  Disease  Prevention."  The 
conference  adjourned  at  12:15  to  visit  the  laboratories  and  to 
call  upon  the  Governor  at  2  o'clock. 

The  Governor  received  the  health  officers  very  graciously,  shak- 
ing hands  with  each  one,  and  made  a  short  speech  in  which  he 
particularly  urged  them  to  make  every  eflFort  to  collect  accurate 
vital  statistics,  for,  said  he,  "Accurate  vital  statistics  are  of  the 
greatest  importance  to  the  State,  and  they  furnish  the  particular 
foundation  upon  which  must  stand  disease  prevention  work." 
Dr.  Tucker  read  a  paper  entitled  "The  Prevention  of  Tubercu- 
losis," which  was  discussed  at  length.  Dr.  Tucker's  essay  dealt 
with  the  extent  and  destructiveness  of  tuberculosis  in  Indiana; 
it  exhorted  the  officers  present  to  thoroughly  inform  themselves  in 
the  important  public  movement  against  tuberculosis;  to  inform 
themselves  in  the  early  diagnosis  of  the  disease,  and  to  spread 
among  the  people  the  knowledge  that  in  its  early  stages  consump- 
tion is  one  of  the  must  curable  of  maladies.  Dr.  Davis  then 
read  a  paper  entitled  "The  Air  We  Breathe,"  which  was  also 
discussed  with  interest.  This  paper  briefly  and  clearly  reviewed 
the  extent  and  character  of  the  atmosphere  and  its  very  great  im- 
portance to  health.  This  paper  was  remarkable  for  concentra- 
tion, and  contained  enough  points  and  facts  to  serve  the  general 
writer  for  several  papers.  Dr.  Knabe  read  a  paper  entitled  "A 
Laboratory  View  of  the  Infectious  Diseases."  In  this  paper  Dr. 
Knabe  told  th^  officers  how  the  infectious  disease  problem  looks 
from  the  laboratory.  She  made  plain  how  great  the  service  was 
which  the  laboratory  could  render  in  the  early  diagnosis  of  dis- 
eases.    The  session  closed  with  another  lecture  from  Prof.  Bur-

rage  continuing  the  subject  of  the  forenoon.  Prof.  Burrage  is  an 
excellent  teacher,  and  presents  his  ideas  clearly,  and  he  made 
plain  to  his  hearers  the  fundamental  principles  of  disease  pre- 
vention. 

The  evening  session  was  called  to  order  at  8  p.  m.  by  Dr.  Davis. 
Reports  of  health  officers  were  listened  to  for  an  hour  and  a  half, 
five  minutes  being  allowed  to  each  officer.  At  this  point  Dr. 
Davis  suspended  the  reports  until  the  next  session  to  hear  a 
lecture  by  Prof. .  H.  E.  Barnard,  Chemist  of  the  Board,  entitled 
"Polluted  Water  in  Indiana.^'  Prof.  Barnard  reviewed  the 
water  work  so  far  done  in  the  laboratory,  and  made  plain  the 
benefits  derived  therefrom.  He  reported  that  the  laboratory  was 
now  making  a  sanitary  survey  of  White  River,  and  within  an- 
other year  expected  to  have  maps,  analytical  tables,  and  a  full 
history  showing  this  system  as  it  now  exists  and  giving  its  prob- 
able future  usefulness.  Prof.  Barnard  said  that  one  of  the  great 
problems  in  Indiana  today  was  that  of  the  prevention  of  stream 
pollution. 

The  fourth  session  was  called  to  order  at  9  a.  m.  December  15 
by  Dr.  Davis.  Dr.  T.  Victor  Keene,  Superintendent  of  the 
State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  gave  a  lecture  entitled  "Experi- 
ences in  Sanitary  Work  in  Indianapolis."  In  this  lecture  Dr. 
Keene  related  in  detail  the  experience  of  the  Indianapolis  Health 
Department  in  its  efforts  to  secure  pure  milk  and  pure  water.  lie 
also  told  many  interesting  and  instructive  experiences  in  medical 
school  inspection  in  the  management  of  infectious  diseases.  Fol- 
lowing this,  Prof.  Barnard  gave  a  lecture,  "Food  Adulteration 
in  Indiana."  Prof.  Barnard  reported  that  to  date  over  1,000 
samples  of  foods  and  drugs  had  been  examined,  and  49  per  cent, 
were  found  not  up  to  standard  dr  adulterated.  Of  1^32  samples 
of  vanilla,  only  11  met  the  standard.  Of  145  vinegars,  only  12 
proved  to  be  what  they  were  sold  for.  Of  58  samples  of  lime 
water  purchased  in  various  parts  of  the  State,  only  33  were 
found  up  to  standard.  Prof.  Barnard  truly  stated  this  was  a 
deplorable  condition,  and  it  sliould  be  righted  as  soon  as  possible. 
After  Prof.  Barnard's  paper  on  *'Food  Adulteration  in  Indiana/' 
and  after  some  discussion,  the  following  resolution  was  adopted: 

Whereas,  The  members  of  this  Association,  being  fully  aware  of  tlio 
viciousness   of   food   adulteration,    both   as   an    Insidious   attack    on    the

public  Health  and  as  an  economic  fraud,  and  realizing  me  neccKsily  for 
a  National  Pure  Food  Law  to  control  interstate  commerce  in  foods,  and 
believing  that  such  a  law  would  relieve  the  conditions  which  nmlve 
Indiana  a  dumping  ground  for  the  products  of  other  states; 

Resolved,  That  this  Association  urge  the  Senators  and  Congressmen 
of  this  State  to  use  their  strongest  efforts  to  secure  the  passage  of  the 
Heybum  bill. 

Unaniinoiisly  carried. 

The  ilfext  order  was  a  lecture  entitled  "The  Tuberculosis  Sana- 
torium,^' by  Dr.  H.  H.  Cowing,  Healtli  Officer  of  -  Delaware 
County.  Dr.  Cowing  had  lately  visited  the  various  sanatoria  in 
the  East,  remaining  for  some  time  at  the  Adirondack  Cottage 
Sanatorium,  which  institution  was  founded  by  the  well-laiown 
Dr.  E.  L.  Trudeau.  Dr.  Cowing  reviewed  the  disposition  and 
methods  of  cure  by  the  outdoor  life,  plain  food  and  regular  liv- 
ing. In  conclusion,  he  exhorted  the  health  officers  to  keep  con- 
stantly in  mind  the  necessity  of  a  State  Tuberculosis  Sanatorium 
in  Indiana,  and  that  they  lend  their  fullest  influence  and  eflForts 
to  secure  the  same.  The  exercises  ol'osod  with  a  lecture  by  Dr.  W. 
T.  S.  Dodds,  of  Indianapolis,  upon  "The  Early  Diagnosis  of  Con- 
sumption with  Clinic."  T)r.  Dodds  said  that  physicians  did  wrong 
to  wait  for  the  appearance  of  the  classical  symptoms  of  tuberculo- 
sis, but  they  should  tell  the  patient  of  his  affliction.  The  cure -of 
tuberculosis,  he  said,  depended  largely  upon  discovery  of  case  when 
in  its  early  stages.  The  early  sj-mptoms  were:  "tired  feeling," 
accelerated  pulse,  rise  of  temperature  in  the  afternoon,  with  pos- 
sibly sub-normal  temperature' in  the  morning,  a  dry,  hacking,  or 
rather  an  unproductive  cough,  for  there  is  really  no  such  thing 
as  a  dry  cough.  Even  in  apparently  dry,  hacking  coughing,  the 
patient  sprays  droplets  of  spittle  into  the  air.  If,  with  these 
symptoms,  there  is  a  loss  of  weight,  nnd  even  if  the  sputum  docs 
not  show  the  presence  of  an  organism,  and  unless  it  is  positively 
known  that  the  said  symptoms  are  due  to  other  causes,  it  should 
be  assumed  that  incipient  tuberculosis  exists. 

As  usual  the  attendance  at  the  close  had  grown  v^ry  small,  but 
those  who  remained  were  enthusiastic,  and  from  every  indication 
one  would  judge  they  desired  to  hear  more.  Several  officers  took 
occasion  to  remark  that  this  was  the  best  conference  or  school  they 
had  so  far  attende<l.

REPORT  OF  THE  INVESTIGATIONS  AT  MIDDLETOWN,  INDIANA, 
SUSPECTED  PTOMAINE  POISONING. 

By  Dr.  Heleae  Knabe. 

I  was  sent  to  Middletown  Deceml>er  .12  to  investigate  some  cases  of 
suspected  ptomaine  poisoning  which  had  occm'red  at  the  Welsh  Hotel 
November  30,  after  the  guests  had  partaken  of  a  hearty  dinner. 

On  my  arrival  I  visited  Dr.  Waters,  the  Health  Officer  of  the  town,  who 
was  one  of  the  guests  at  that  dinner  and  made  sick  at  that  time.  The 
doctor  was  kind  enough  to  furnish  me  with  a  list  of  the  names  of  the 
persons  which  were  sick  with  what  seemed  to  be  poisoning,  aAd  he  also 
gave  a  very  clear  history  of  the  state  of  affairs  as  they  occurred  Novem- 
ber 30.  I  found  there  were  about  twenty-four  cases  at  the  hotel  and 
twelve  cases  outside.  The  persons  who  are  named  in  the  following  list, 
"outside  cases,"  had  not  come  in  contact  with  anybody  from  the  hotel, 
nor  had  they  obtained  any  foo'd  from  there.  Still  the  symptoms  are 
identical  with  those  at  the  hotel  and  in  some  of  these  cases  they  were 
very  severe.  The  time  during  which  this  sickness  appeared  was  the  week 
from  November  26  to  December  3. 

The  list  of  cases  in  their  order  of  occurrence  is  as  follows:

The  attacks* in  every  ease  began  very  suddenly  with  vomiting  and 
purging.  Most  all  of  the  cases  at  the  hotel  commenced  shortly  before 
supper  on  the  evening  of  November  30.  In  all  cases  the  prostration  was 
pronounced  and  strychnine  and  nitroglycerine  had  to  be  given  hypoder- 
mlcally.  Dr.  Waters,  who  had  been  sick  the  day  before,  attended  the 
people  nt  the  ho^el.    Some  of  the  patients  complained  of  severe  cramps

In  arms  and  legs,  and  in  the  cases  of  Mrs.  Welsh,  Mr.  Daniels,  and  Mrs. 
Bickrier  these  cramps  appeared  in  the  slightest  over-exertion  every  day 
since.  Dr.  Thomburg,  who  treated  Mr.  Daniels  during  his  attack  stated 
that  the  vomitus  of  the  patient  was  of  a  decided  pink  color,  resembling 
that  of  A  weak  solution  of  Potassium  Permanganate.  During  my  stay 
at  the  Welsh  Hotel  I  endeavored  to  find  out  the  ways  in  which  food  fs 
prepai'ed  there«  but  nothing  that  is  not  in 'keeping  with  the  laws  of 
cleanliness  was  to  be  seen  anywhere.  Mrs.  Kent  is  always  in  the  kitchen 
during  meal  time  and  supervises  everything.  The  cooking  utensils  are 
of  enameled  Ware  and  a  few  frying  pans  of  the  ordinary  kind  are  also  in 
Use.  All  dishes  and  cooking  utensils  are  kept  very  clean  and  the  same 
can  be  said  of  the  cupboards  and.  in  fact,  the  whole  house. 

The  menu  for  the  Thanksgiving  dinner  consisted  of  roast  turkey  and 
(luck,  potatoes,  celery,  stewed  cranberries,  oyster  dressing  and  ice  cream. 
The  fact  that  three  guests  for  dinner  and  one  for  supper,  as  well  as  the 
landlord,  Mr.  Kent,  and  the  chambermaid,  did  not  get  sick,  though  they 
had  eaten  of  all  the  victuals  which  were  provided,  makes  it  doubtful  that 
the  cases  were  food  poisoning.  The  question  was  raised  that  it  might 
be  the  work  of  a  person  who  desired  to  bring  the  hotel  into  disrepute, 
but  as  Mrs.  Kent  is  always  there  before  meal  time  and  stays  In  the 
kitchen  until  all  guests  are  served,  makes  It  rather  difficult  to  see  how 
anyone  could  get  at  the  food  without  being  seen  by  her. 

The  cases  that  occurred  in  Middletown  during  that  week  are  so  much 
alike  to  those  in  the  hotel,  showing  the  same  symptoms,  viz.:  vomiting, 
purging,  profound  prostration  and  remarkably  quick  recovery.  The  cases 
on  the  list  marked  with  a  star  I  have  seen  personally,  and  of  the  others 
the  history  was  given  by  the  attending  physician,  and  all  cases  outside 
of  the  hotel  I  have  carefully  traced  as  far  as  possible  and  excluded  any 
connection  with  the  cases  in  the  hotel. 

The  people  at  the  hotel  had  not  eaten  the  same  food  in  the  same  amount 
and  many  of  those  who  became  ill  had  eaten  very  sparingly,  while  of 
the  ones  who  escaped  the  trouble  some  had  eaten  heartily.  There  seems 
to  be  no  ground  to  think  the  ice  cream  caused  the  sickness,  because  some 
cases  occurred  before  Thanksgiving  dinner,  when  they  did  not  eat  any 
cream.  The  same  reason  would  rule  out  the  oyster  dressing  and  the 
vegetables;  also  no  canned  eatables  were  used  and  all  the  guests  did  not 
eat  of  every  one  of  them.  Also  the  fact  that  with  the  exception  of  two 
of  the  patients  none  that  had  been  sick  on  November  29  was  sick  again  on 
November  30.  For  Mrs.  Welsh's  case  there  is  also  an  explanation,  be- 
cause this  lady  is  in  some  legal  difficulties  and  thought  she  was  poisoned 
by  her  antagonist;  she  is  very  ner\ous  and  naturally  would  not  get  well 
so  quick. 

It  is  impossible  for  me  to  come  to  a  solution  of  the  question,  and  as  in 
no  cases  vomit  was  saved  the  examination  of  which  would  probably  have 
given  a  clue  to  the  cause  of  the  trouble,  I  can  not  see  how  it  Is  to  be 
settled  definitely. 

During  my  stay  at  Middletown  I  visited  the  schoolhouse.  It  is  a  brick 
structure  containing  six  rooms.  The  water  is  supplied  by  the  public 
water  works  of  the  town,  and  the  building  is  heated  by  steam.  The 
schoolhouse  Is  supplied  with  toilet  rooms  for  the  girls,  which  are  in  the

basement  aud  are  in  good  eoudition,  there  being  one  of  the  usual  public 
toilets  with  automatic  flushing  system.  The  toilet  rooms  for  the  boys 
are  on  the  same  order  and  some  distance  away  from  the  main  building. 

While  inspecting  the  room  in  which  the  smallest  children  are  taught, 
I. noticed  that  many  of  the  children  had  bad  colds,  and  the  teacher  stated 
that  many  ol^  them  had  sta:^ed  home  a  few  days,  and  at  the  time  of  my 
visit  five  were  away.  Inspection  of  the  throat  did  not  show  anything 
alarming.  The  phamyx  was  pale,  tongue  very  slightly  coated  and  the 
papilla  reddened,  giving  the  appearance  of  a  mild  degree  of  the  so-called 
"strawberry"  tongue.  There  was  a  hollow  cough,  entirely  unproductive, 
present  in  all  cases  affected,  and  slight  coryza.  I  spoke  to  Dr.  Waters 
about  it,  suggesting  that  it  might  be  a  mild  epidemic  of  scarlet  i^ever,  and 
he  promises  to  watch  for  any  cases  developing  among  other  children. 

Some  cases  of  a  skin  disease  that  seem  to  have  been  brought  there 
from  Anderson  proved  to  be  scabies,  and  the  treatment  which  the  doctor 
has  given  is  making  an  end  to  that. 

In  closing  I  would  like  to  call  attention  to  the  unsanitary  condition 
of  the  waiting  room  in  the  Terminal  Station  at  Anderson.  There  is  no 
ventilation  except  when  the  door  is  opened,  and  the  appearance  of  the 
floor  under  the  cases  of  a  candy  department  that  is  in  the  front  part  of 
the  room  was  anything  but  sanitary. 


HYGIENIC  I^ABORATORY. 

The  Bacteriological  and  Pathological  Laboratory  is  now  in  full 
operation.  Dr.  Keene  commenced  regular  work  January  1,  . 
Prior  to  this  Dr.  Keene  gave  considerable  time  to  the  making  out 
of  lists  for  apparatus,  furniture,  etc.,  also  in  arranging  the  labora- 
tory. Outfits  for  collecting  samples  of  sputum  and  blood,  and  for 
diphtheria  cultures  have  been  sent  to  all  applicants,  and  to  Janu- 
ary 1  the  following  examinations  have  been  made:

AMERICAN  TIN  PLATE  COMPANY. 

The  following  letter  was  read  by  the  Secretary : 

Hon.  Board  of  Health  of  Indiana,  Indianapolis,  Ind. : 

Grentlemen &#; We  hereby  respectfnlly  request  that  you  renew  our  per- 
mits for  emptying  into  streams  waste  water,  etc.,  from  our  several  plants 
in  this  State,  comprising  the  following:  Klwood,  Anderson,  Gas  City  and 
Muncie.  Yours  very  truly, 

THOMAS  O'BRIEN,  District  Manager. 

After  discussion  it  was  ordered  that  the  permits  of  last  year 

be  renewed. 

ORDERED. &#; The  Secretary  was  given  permission  to  purchase  cer- 
tain supplies  for  the  Bacteriological  Laboratory,  a  partial  list  of  which 
was  presented. 

SPECIAL  MEETING. 

March   7,   . 

Called  to  order  by  President  Davis  at  10  a.  m. 

Present:    Drs.  Davis,  McCoy,  Wishard,  Tucker,  and  Hurty. 

President  announced  the  special  meeting  was  called  to  consider 

sanitary  surveys  of  three  schoolhouses,  as  an  urgent  demand  had 

been  made  by  citizens. 

SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  WINGATB. 

Survey. &#; This  is  a  two-story  slate  roofed  brick  building  built 
about  .  It  contains  four  recitation  rooms,  four  cloak'  rooms 
and  two  halls.  Main  building  37  by  52  feet.  Hall  17  by  18  feet, 
outside  measurement  Basement  under  main  building  about  &]/*> 
feet,  with  dirt  floor.  Two  furnaces  are  used  to  heat  the  building, 
and  their  foundations  had  to  be  dug  about  18  inches  below  the 
level  of  basement  floor  to  set  them  up.  Even  with  that,  they  are 
too  close  to  the  floor  above,  and  there  is  danger  of  setting  fire  to 
the  building,  as  the  joists  above  them  are  charred  and  blackened 
with  the  heat.  The  walls  of  the  building  are  built  solid  from  the 
foundation,  with  no  stone  or  slate  between  the  basement  and  main 
building  to  check  the  rise  of  moisture. 

The  schoolrooms  are  25  by  34  feet,  with  14-feet  ceilings  in 
lower  and  12-feet  ceilings  in  upper  rooms.  Each  room  has  a 
four-foot  cloak  room  attached.  There  are  ventilators  in  each 
room  connected  with  the  basement  for  the  supply  of  fresh  air,  and

opening  into  the  attic  for  the  outlet  of  the  foul  air,  but  are  not 
satisfactory.  The  teachers  state  that  they  have  to  open  the  win- 
dows to  air  the  rooms,  and  that  if  the  windows  are  open  in  one 
room,  they  can  not  keep  the  other  rooms  warm.  (Many  of  the 
pupils  were  wearing  wraps  in  the  room  that  day.) 

The  rooms  are  papered,,  but  owing  to  the  moisture  in  the  walls 
the  paper  is  coming  off  badly  in  every  room.  The  plastering  is 
badly  cracked  in  the  two  lower  rooms,  the  west  upper  room  and 
both  halls.  The  floors  are  badly  worn  in  the  lower  rooms  and  will 
need  repairing  next  fall.  The  windows  have  good  blinds;  the 
floors  are  oiled  and  clean,  the  seats  in  good  shape  and  of  height  to 
suit  the  pupils.  The  stairway  is  5  feet  wide  to  a  7-foot  landing, 
then  divides  into  two  3-foot  reverse  stairways  to  the  hall  above. 

The  janitor  stated  that  it  was  impossible  to  keep  the  rooms 
warm  on  cold,  windy  days,  and  that  school  had  to  be  dismissed 
last  year  for  several  days  on  that  account ;  he  said  that  moisture 
would  accumulate  on  the  walls  in  cold  weather  so  that  the  paper 
would  come  loose  and  the  water  run  down  to  the  floor.  In  wet 
weather  that  water  came  into  the  basement,  making  it  very  hard  to 
keep  the  furnaces  going,  although  it  had  never  gotten  into  the  fire- 
boxes. He  also  stated  that  the  ringing  of  the  school  bell  or  slam- 
ming of  the  front  door  to  the  hall  would  shake  the  whole  building. 
He  did  not  consider  the  building  dangerous. 

The  enumeration  of  pupils  is  190.  There  are  three  and  one- 
half  school  districts  attending  this  school  now,  and  if  more  room 
was  available  there  would  be  two  and  one-half  more  that  would 
be  brought  there.  There  are  five  teachers &#; four  in  the  school 
building  and  one  in  the  town  hall,  which  is  being  used  as  a  school- 
room for  the  overflow  pupils.  The  Trustee,  Mr.  H.  T.  Van 
Cleave,  states  that  he  will  have  to  add  more  rooms  to  or  rebuild 
the  schoolhouse  or  repair  and  practically  rebuild  three  others  in 
the  county  districts.  He  thinks  it  economy  to  tear  down  this 
building  and  put  up  a  modern  one  that  will  accommodate  all  the 
pupils  in  one  school.  He  also  says  the  township  is  out  of  debt 
and  can  build. 

H.  M.  Dickinson,  Principal,  stated  the  building  was  unsani- 
tary, could  not  be  properly  heated  and  was  too  small  and  could 
not  be  remodeled  to  advantage. 

J,  M,  Allhands,  Assistant,  stated  same  as  above  and  also  said 

Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


46 

there  liacl  been  a  great  deal  of  sickness  from  colds  and  sore  throat 
in  his  room,  which  he  was  sure  was  caused  by  dampness  of  the 
walls  and  the  impossibility  of  keeping  the  rooms  at  a  uniform 
temperature. 

Dr.  T.  IT.  Allhands,  Health  Officer,  has  had  two  cases  of  pneu- 
monia and  several  cases  of  tonsilitis  among  the  pupils  that  he  con- 
siders as  directly  traceable  to  the  unsanitary  condition  of  the 
school  building. 

R.  N.  Cordig,  Member  of  Town  Council,  thinks  the  building  is 
wholly  inadequate  to  the  needs  of  the  school,  that  it  is  unsanitary, 
improperly  constructed,  and  can  not  be  remodeled  economically, 
and  advises  that  a  modem  sanitary  building  be  erected. 

J.  A.  Long,  Postmaster,  endorses  Mr.  Cordig's  views. 

Summary, 

The  building  is  unsanitary,  improperly  constructed,  can  not  be 
remodeled  or  added  to  economically,  and  it  is  respectfully  recom- 
mended that  it  be  condemned  for  school  purposes  to  take  effect  at 
end  of  present  school  term. 

After  full  consideration  the  following  proclamation  was 
adopted: 

PROCLAMATION  OP   CONDEMN ATION. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  State  Board  of 
Health  that  the  sehooUiouse  at  Winffate.  Montcroniery  County,  Indiana, 
Is  unsanitary  and  unfit  for  housing  school  children;  tlierofore,  it  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  and  sliall  not  be  used 
for  school  liUrposes  after  April  1,  . 

Any  violation  of  this  order  shall  be  promptly  prosecuteil  ])y  the  At- 
torney-General according  to  the  statutes  provided. 

SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  CLAYTON. 

Survey. &#; This  is  a  two-story  brick,  with  belfry  tower,  contain- 
ing four  rooms  27x28  foct,  two  recitation  rooms  12x22  feet,  two 
halls  and  one  5-foot  stairway.  The  building  is  well  lighted  and 
kept  in  neat,  clean  condition.  Walls  are  painted  and  papered, 
good  blinds  at  the  windows  and  heated  by  soft-coal  stoves  in  each 
room.  Ventilated  by  doors  and  windows.  Was  built  in  . 
The  chimney  at  the  south  end  of  the  building  is  split  at  the  top 
for  two  or  three  feet  and  the  wall  is  cracking  and  bulging  outward 
{it  the  junction  of  the  upper  and  lower  rooms.     Tlie  brick  in  the

walls  is  very  soft  and  could  be  easily  broken  and  crushed  and 
shows  by  its  freshly  broken  condition  that  the  whole  wall  on  the 
south  end  is  in  danger  of  collapse.  There  is  an  iron  rod  run 
through  the  walls  over  the  door  of  the  entrance  hall  to  keep  theui 
from  collapsing  and  the  wall  is  badly  cracked  to  the  belfry  tower. 
There  is  no  basement  under  the  building,  but  a  coal  cellar  has 
been  dug  under  the  northwest  comer.  The  trustee  who  had  this 
work  done  failed  to  build  a  wall  under  the  foundation  of  the 
building,  and  as  the  water  runs  into  the  cellar  whenever  it  rains, 
this  corner  of  the  building  has  settled  and  threatens  to  give  down. 
A  person  jumping  up  and  down  in  one  of  the  upper  rooms  causes 
the  whole  building  to  quiver  and  windows  and  doors  to  rattle. 
The  floors  in  the  schoolroom  are  worn  out,  and  it  must  be  re- 
floored,  and  the  halls  in  one  or  two  rooms  need  replastering. 

The  enrollment  is  194.  There  are  five  teachers  and  the  higli 
school  course.  The  room  used  for  the  high  school  course  con- 
tained 70  pupils.  There  are  three  districts  combined  in  this 
school  and  the  Trustee  desires  to  bring  in  one  or  two  more,  or 
otherwise  he  will  have  to  rebuild  two  one-room  houses.  Th(i 
schoolyard  contains  two  and  one-half  acres  of  ground  and  is  well 
adapted  for  the  purpose.  The  water  closets  are  screened  and 
have  dug  vaults.     There  are  no  walks  to  them. 

A  talk  with  Mr.  Miller  fa  member  of  the  Advisory  Board)  and 
others  shows  that  the  citizens  consider  the  building  unsafe  for  use. 
Dr.  A.  K.  Gilbert,  Township  Trustee,  stated  that  he  had  an  archi- 
,tect  furnish  an  estimate  of  cost  of  adding  two  rooms  and  remodel- 
ing the  building,  and  that  it  would  cost  about  $6,000  to  do  the 
work. 

It  is  respectfully  reconmiended  that  the  building  be  condemned 
as  absolutely  dangerous  to  life  as  well  as  imsanitary. 

After  full  consideration  the  following  proclamation  of  con- 
demnation was  adopted : 

PROCLAMATION   OF  CONDEMNATION. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  State  Board  of 
Health  that  the  schoolhouse  at  Clayton,  Hendriclis  County,  Indiana,  Is 
unsanitary  and  unfit  for  housing  school  children;  therefore,  it  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  and  shall  not  be  used 
for  school  purposes  after  April  1,  . 

Any  violation  of  this  order  shall  l)e  promptly  prosecuted  by  the  At- 
torney-General according  to  the  s^tatutes  provided.

SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  AVON, 

Sanitary  Survey. &#; The  building  is  a  four-room,  two-story  brick 
with  a  slate  roof.  No  basement.  It  was  built  in  ,  but 
burned  down  and  was  rebuilt  in    and  an  additional  story 
added.  The  walls  of  the  lower  story  are  about  14  inches  thick 
and  the  upper  walls  about  9  inches  thick.  The  walls  are  begin- 
ning to  crack  and  split  open  around  the  windows  and  doors.  The 
rooms  are  21Vi>x30  feet.  There  are  two  halls  10x30  feet  and  a 
single  narrow  stairway.  No  cloakrooms  and  no  heat  in  the  halls. 
The  partition  wall  between  the  two  lower  rooms  is  cracked  from 
bottom  to  top  and  beginning  to  open.  The  floors  are  worn  out 
and  full  of  cracks  and  the  rooms  all  need  replastering.  The 
building  is  heated  by  two  "Johnson's  Ideal  heater  and  ventilator 
furnaces,"  one  in  each  lower  room  and  heating  the  room  above  by 
a  hot  air  pipe.  There  are  ventilators  in  the  floors  of  the  lower 
rooms  besides  the  ones  connected  with  the  heaters,  but  they  have 
to  be  kept  closed,  as  it  is  impossible  to  warm  the  rooms  when  they 
are  open.  There  are  no  ventilators  in  the  rooms  above.  The 
walls  have  been  painted,  floors  oiled  and  blinds  at  the  windows. 
Desks  in  fair  condition  and  of  suitable  heights  for  the  pupils. 
The  building  has  been  well  taken  care  of.  The  water  closets  have 
good  gravel  walks  leading  to  them  and  are  screened.  There  is  a 
good  frame  barn  about  30x60  feet  on  school  lot.  The  location  of 
the  buildings  is  bad,  the  ground  being  low  and  without  any  outlet 
for  drainage.  The  Danville  and  Indianapolis  interurban  line 
runs  within  fifty  feet  of  the  front  door,  having  taken  sixteen  feet 
off  of  the  school  ground  for  right-of-way.    . 

The  enrollment  of  the  pupils  is  135,  there  being  five  districts 
combined  in  one  school.  There  are  four  teachers.  Mr.  E.  E. 
Blair,  Township  Trustee,  reports  the  township  out  of  debt 

Summary. 

The  building  is  old,  improperly  constructed,  and  is  unsafe  and 
unsanitary  at  the  present  time.  If  repaired,  will  have  to  be 
strengthened,  newly  floored  and  plastered,  and  two  additional 
rooms  built  to  accommodate  the  number  of  pupils  in  attendance. 
The  location  is  very  bad,  being  so  low  that  it  is  surrounded  by 
water  in  wet  weather,  and  there  is  no    means    of    drainage.     I

Would  respectfully  recommend  that  the  building  be  condemned 
and  a  new  one  be  erected  in  some  better  location. 

Inspection  made  February  1,  . 

After  full  consideration  the  following  proclamation  order  was 
adopted : 

PROCLAMATION  OF  OONDBSMNATION. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  State  Board  of 
Health  that  the  schoolhouse  number  6  at  Avon,  Hendricks  County,  In- 
diana, is  unsanitary  and  unfit  for  housing  school  children;  therefore,  it  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  and  shall  not  be  used 
for  school  purposes  after  April  1,  . 

Any  violation  of  this  order  shall  be  promptly  prosecuted  by  the  At- 
torney-General according  to  the  statutes  provided. 

Ordered,  That  the  next  lot  of  report  blanks  for  reporting  births 
and  contagious  diseases  be  so  arranged  that  three  birth  blanks  be 
inserted  for  one  contagious  disease  blank. 

Ordered,  That  when  a  new  lot  of  death  certificates  be  printed 
that  the  word  "chief"  be  stricken  out  in  the  phrase  "chief  cause" 
and  inserting  "immediate,"  making  the  phrase  read  "immediate 
cause." 

Committee. &#; Upon  suggestion  of  the  President,  Drs.  Wishard 
and  McCoy  were  appointed  a  committee  to  report  at  the  next 
meeting  on  the  advisability  of  requiring  that  certificates  of  births 
and  deaths  be  reported  occurring  prior  to  the  seventh  month  of 
gestation. 

PROPOSAL  FOR  CO-OPERATION. 

The  following  letter  was  read : 

Department  of  Interior, 
United  States  Geological  Survey, 

Hydrographic  Branch, 
Washington,  D.  C,  January  30,  . 

Dr.  J.  N.  Hurty,  Secretary  State  Board  of  Health,  Indianapolis,  Ind.: 

Dear  Sir &#; During  my  visit  to  your  ofllce  on  January  20th  the  proposi- 
tion that  the  Geological  Survey  enter  upon  co-operative  worlc  with  the 
Indiana  State  Board  of  Health  was  discussed  briefly.  It  seems  desirable 
to  enter  upon  some  negotiations  with  the  object  of  bringing  about  some 
mutual  arrangement  whereby  investigations  of  the  character  of  stream 
waters  of  the  State  of  Indiana  may  be  carried  on  during  the  fiscal  year 
beginhing  July  1, . 

There  are  several  lines  of  investigation  which  would  be  profitable  and 
beneficial  to  the  interests  represented  by  both  parties  above  mentioned.

The  first  is  a  general  Investigation  of  the  character  of  the  water  fiowing 
in  the  streams  of  the  State.  The  principal  purpose  of  such  work  will  be 
to  determine  the  water  resources  and  their  damage  by  pollution.  It  Is  a 
generally  accepted  idea  that  waters  in  streams  which  drain  inhabited 
countries  are  not  constantly  fit  for  domestic  consumption  in  their  raw 
state.  In  observing  conditions  in  Indiana  during  the  past  few  years  it 
has  become  the  conclusion  that  all  of  the  Indiana  drainage  areas  are  at 
one  or  more  points  densely  populated.  Tlierefere,  the  above  contention  is 
true  for  the  entire  State.  Accepting  these  premises,  it  is  apparent  that 
the  cities  using  surface  waters  must  eventually  provide  means  for  their 
purification.  It  is  also  true  that  tlie  larger  cities  of  Indiana  must,  for 
many  reasons  which  will  not  be  reviewed  here,  eventually  take  their  sup- 
plies from  the  nmning  streams.  It  follows  that  one  of  the  most  useful 
lines  of  investigation  will  be  to  determine  the  character  of  such  waters 
and  their  variation  from  day  to  day,  so  that  there  will  be  on  hand  just 
the  data  necessary  for  the  intelligent  installation  of  purification  systems. 
The  determination  most  useful  in  such  cases  are  turbidity,  color,  odor, 
total  solids,  suspended  solids,  lime,  magnesia,  iron,  sodium,  potassium, 
chlorides,  sulphates,  carbonates  and  bicarbonates.  The  usual  practice  in 
such  an  investigation  as  is  here  proposed. is  to  establish  permanent  sam- 
pling stations  at  chosen  points  along  the  rivers  and  to  have  forwai'ded 
from  such  stations  4-ounce  samples  of  water  each.  day.  Tbese  samples 
when  received  at  the  laboratory  are  tiien  stored  in  larger  bottles,  each 
station  being  represented  by  a  storage  bottle  in  the  laboratory,  until  a 
sufficient  amount  is  accumulated  to  make  it  advisable  to  determine  the 
ingi'edients  and  characteristics  above  noted.  Such  a  result  will  repre- 
sent the  composite  of  the  various  samples.  Generally  such  analyses  are 
made  every  week  or  ten  days. 

If  this  arrangement  is  desirable  an  appropriation  could  be  made  by 
both  parties.  That  made  by  the  Survey  could  be  expended  in  salary 
for  a  chemist  to  be  furnished  by  the  Survey,  while  the  State  appropria- 
tion could  be  expended  for  the  salades  of  local  observers  and  for  such 
transportation  charges  and  laboratory  equipment  as  would  be  found 
necessary,  adjustments  being  made  at  the  end  of  the  year,  so  that  the 
expense  of  each  party  could  be  equal.  This  is  a  very  simple  plan  and 
of  undoubted  benefit  Its  usefulness,  however,  is  confined  more  or  less 
to  the  future  when  the  cities  decide  to  provide  water  purification  systems. 

Another  plan  would  involve  an  investigation  of  the  pollution  of  the 
streams,  that  is,  a  determination  of  the  effect  of  sewage  and  industrial 
wastes,  and  the  extent  of  their  infiuence  down  stream.  You  will  note 
that  such  an  investigation  would  be  directed  more  exclusdvely  toward 
sewage  disposal  than  water  supply.  It  seems  as  though  under  the  pre- 
vailing conditions  in  Indiana  this  would  be  a  more  immediately  useful 
work  than  that  previously  described.  It  wsuld  also  involve  investiga- 
tions concerning  the  effect  of  various  industrial  wastes  and  the  best 
methods  of  disposing  of  them  or  recovering  valuable  ingredients  therein, 
which  in  practice  has  the  same  final  result  Under  such  an  arrangement 
the  Survey  would  provide  a  man  who  would  do  practically  all  the  field 
work  and  a  part  of  that  in  the  laboratory,  while  it  would  make  use  at 
the  same  time  of  some  of  the  laboratory  assistants  which  you  have  al- 
ready provided.

It  Is  hoped  that  you  will  give  this  matter  your  consideration  and 
present  it  to  the  Board  of  Health  for  action  if  It  is  deemed  wise. 
Very  respectfully, 

M.  O.  LEIGHTON, 
Hydrographer  In  Charge.  Division  of  Hydro-Economics. 

After  consideration,  it  was  moved  by  Dr.  Davis,  that,  inasmuch 
as  the  means  now  at  the  command  of  the  Board  would  not  admit 
of  co-operation  as  proposed,  therefore,  the  Secretary  should  in- 
form Mr.  Leighton  and  say  that  the  Board  would  present  the  mat- 
ter to  the  next  General  Assembly  and  ask  for  a  special  appropria- 
tion for  making  sanitary  stream  surveys. 

HAM  VEDDLING. 

Ordered,  That  the  following  letter  should  be  sent  out  to  all 
county  health  officers : 

WARNING. 

Dear  Doctor &#; Men  from  Chicago  dressed  like  farmers  have  been 
caught  selling  tainted  hams  in  Indiana.  They  buy  tainted  hams  from  the 
packing  houses,  doctor  them  np,  ship  them  to  any  point,  then  hire  horses 
and  wagon  and  peddle  them  at  2  to  3  cents  under  the  market.  The  hams 
appear  to  be  all  right  until  slices  are  put  into  the  frying  pan,  and  then 
the  taint  fills  the  kitchen.  The  meat  is  unfit  to  eat.  Many  of  these 
tainted  hams'  were  sold  in  Columbus,  Greensburg,  Mt  Vernon  and  other 
places.  At  Franklin  one  T.  Scantlan  was  arrested  upon  information  from 
Columbus,  but  was  released  on  ball  and  disappeared. 

Please  inform  the  sheriff,  city  and  town  health  officers  and  police 
authorities  to  be  on  the  watch  for  ham  peddlers.  Also  make  the  matter 
public  in  the  papers. 

P.  S.  Tlie  Laboratory  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  is  open  for  free 
food,  drug  and  water  analyses,  also  for  free  bacteriological  and  patho- 
logical examinations.     Rules  governing  laboratory   free   work   enclosed.

VISITS  AND  INSPECTIONS. 

The  Secretary  during  the  quarter  made  five  visits  in  answer  to 
urgent  invitations  and  herewith  are  full  accounts  of  said  visits. 

REPORTS  OF  VISITS  AND  INSPEX3TI0NS  DURING  THE  QUARTER. 

Rushville,  January  9th. &#; The  Secretary  visited  Rushville  on 
this  date  to  confer  with  Prof.  William  O.  Headlee,  County  Su- 
perintendent, and  the  trustees  of  the  county  in  the  same  way  as 
set  forth  in  the  records  of  the  visit  to  Connersville,  and  the  same 
work  was  done  and  the  same  results  secured  as  were  so  happily  ac- 
complished at  Connersville.  While  there,  W.  H.  Smith,  city 
health  officer,  called  my  attention  to  a  case  of  sickness  which  fol- 
lowed the  administration  of  Dr.  Hand's  cough  and  croup  cure. 
Accordingly  a  hottle  of  this  medicine  was  purchased  and  exam- 
ined in  the  laboratory.  The  symptoms  recorded  by  Dr.  Smith 
were  those  of  the  action  of  morphine,  and  so  the  medicine  in  ques- 
tion was  examined  for  this  drug.  The  analysis  showed  morphine 
to  be  absent  and  the  depressant  action  noticed  was,  I  believe,  due 
to  the  presence  of  lobelia. 

Lebanon,  January  20th.&#; On  the  above  date  I  visited  Lebanon 
to  address  the  Boone  County  Teachers'  Association  in  regard  to 
the  public  health  work  of  the  State  Board  of  Health,  and  to  confer 
in  regard  to  school  sanitation  in  that  county.  In  addition  to 
eighty  teachers,  there  were  present  many  citizens.  The  usual 
phases  of  the  subject  were  gone  over  and  a  promise  was  given  by  a 
rising  vote  of  all  teachers  present,  that  they  would  study  the  con- 
tagious disease  circulars  of  the  State  Board  of  Health,  and  from 
time  to  time  teach  their  contents  to  their  pupils. 

Connersville,  January  26th. &#; The  Secretary  went  to  Conners- 
ville to  attend  the  meeting  of  the  sixth  Councilor  District  of 
Physicians,  to  read  a  paper  in  regard  to  the  work  of  the  State 
Board  of  Health  and  to  discuss  the  "Combat  Against  Tuberculo- 
sis." The  meeting  was  very  successful  and  was  largely  attended, 
and  the  Secretary  believes  that  good  results  followed  his  visit 
Advantage  was  taken  of  the  visit  to  call  upon  the  County  Supers 
intendent.  Prof.  Calvin  Ochiltree,  and  arrange  with  him  to  later 
meet  the  trustees  of  the  county  and,  if  possible,  effect  an  organiza- 
tion for  health  work  in  the  schools.     Prof.  Ochiltree  was  very

much  pleased  to  enter  the  work  nnd  agreed  to  call  a  meeting  .of 
the  trustees  on  Fehrnary  5th. 

Connersville,  February  5th. &#; In  accordance  with  the  arrange- 
ments made  with  Prof.  Ochiltree  on  eTanuary  25th,  I  visited  CJon- 
nersville  and  met  the  trustees  of  the  county  whom  he  had  kindly 
called  together.  School  hygiene  was  fully  considered  in  general 
conference  and  the  following  work  was  recommended  to  the 
Trustees : 

That  they  should,  as  soon  as  possible,  put  all  their  schoolhouses 
in  first-class  sanitary  condition.  Windows  were  to  be  fixed  so  that 
they  could  be  raised  and  lowered  for  purposes  of  ventilation. 
Doors  were  to  be  properly  fitted  and  valve  ventilators  put  into  out- 
side doors  where  transoms  did  not  exist.  Schoolrooms  heated 
with  stoves  were  to  have  jackets  placed  aroimd  the  stoves,  and 
teachers  were  to  be  instructed  in  thorough  ventilation.  It  was 
agreed  that  trustees  would  order  their  teachers  in  cold  weather  to 
watch  the  students  carefully,  and  if  any  of  them  should  show 
sleepiness  or  heaviness,  work  would  atop,  and  windows  would  be 
raised  and  the  students  marched  around  the  room  or  given  arm 
exercises  while  the  air  was  being  changed.  It  was  also  agreed 
that  the  water  supplies  would  be  looked  after  very  carefully  and 
that  water  buckets  and  tin  cups  would  be  entirely  banished.  Each 
trustee  was  asked  to  supply  the  address  of  his  teachers  to  the  State 
Board  of  Health,  and  there  would  be  sent  to  them  one  of  the  en- 
velope packages  containing  circulars  upon  the  prevention  of  vari- 
ous diseases.  The  teachers  were  to  inform  themselves  in  regard 
to  the  contents  of  said  circulars  and  at  appropriate  times  teach 
from  them  to  their  pupils.  Every  one  of  the*  trustees  expressed 
himself  as  highly  pleased  with  the  ideas  advanced  and  all  prom- 
ised to  do  the  very  best  they  possibly  could  for  the  health  of  the 
school  children  under  their  charge. 

Evansville,  March  25th. &#; On  this  date  I  visited  Evansville  in 
order  to  deliver  a  public  lecture  upon  the  work  of  the  State  Board 
of  Health  and  general  hygiene.  The  visit  was  made  upon  invita- 
tion of  the  Mayor  and  the  Monday  Club.  A  large  audience  was 
in  attendance  which  entirely  filled  and  crowded  the  floors  and  gal- 
lery of  Grace  Methodist  Church.  The  lecture  was  well  received 
and  a  vote  of  thanks  was  passed.  I  believe  much  good  will  resnlt 
from  this  visit.

A  notable  event  concerning  hygiene  in  the  State  occurred  in  In- 
dianapolis during  the  week  commencing  March  5th.  This  was 
the  Indiana  Tuberculosis  Exhibition,  held  in  Tomlinson  Hall. 

The  exhibition  was  essentially  the  same  as  was  presented  at 
New  York,  Philadelphia,  Boston  and  Newark.  It  came  direct 
from  Newark  U>  Indianflpolis  and  from  here  it  went  to  Chicago. 
The  exhibit  was  under  the  direction  of  the  Indianapolis  Board  of 
Health  and  the  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health  and  was  open 
every  day  and  evening  for  one  week.  The  program  was  as  fol- 
lows:

tended. On  Saturday  night,  when  Dr.  Klebs  and  Dr.  Babcock 
spoke,  and  Lieutenant-Governor  Miller  presided,  it  was  necessary 
to  move  some  of  the  exhibit  and  place  additional  chairs  to  seat 
those  in  attendance.  Ten  thousand  circulars  concerning  the  pre- 
vention of  tuberculosis  were  distributed.  During  the  week  the 
Indianapolis  News  printed  two  editorials  upon  the  subject  of  pre- 
venting tuberculosis  and  gave  daily  illustrated  accounts  of  the  ex- 
hibit. Other  papers  gave  good  descriptions  and  abstracts  of  the 
addresses. 

Through  the  influence  of  Mayor  Bookwaltcr,  whose  heart  and 
actions  are  in  all  good  works,  the  City  Hall  was  secured  without 
rent.  The  forces  of  the  city  and  the  State  Boards  of  Health  un- 
packed and  displayed  the  exhibit,  a  work  which  engaged  ten  men 
for  twenty  hours.  The  printing  j^^as  given  without  charge  by  two 
large  printing  concerns,  and  the  expenses &#; 'freight,  hauling 
frames,  burlap,  expenses  of  speakers,  etc.,  amounting  in  all  to 
$225 &#; were  paid  from  subscribed  funds.

The  pathological  exhibit  from  the  Medical  Collie  of  Indiana, 
the  medical  department  of  Purdue  University,  attracted  wide  at- 
tention. 

As  part  of  the  Secretary's  report  there  is  given  herewith  reports 
of  the  bacteriologist  and  chemist 

REPORT    OF    THE    CHKMIOAL    LABORATORY    F.OR    THE    FIRST- 
CALENDAR  QUARTER  OF  190G. 

By  H.  B.  Barnard. 

I  herewith  submit  a  report  of  the  work  of  the  Chemical  Department 
of  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene  since  its  establishment  to  date,  together 
with  an  outline  of  proposed  work  for  the  coming  summer  and  recommen- 
dations for  desirable  and  necessaiy  legislation. 

Owing  to  the  time  spent  in  equipping  the  laboratory  regular  work 
was  not  begun  until  Octol)er,  when  inspectors  were  sent  out  and  analyt- 
ical Investigations  commenced.  The  laboratory  has,  therefore,  been  in 
active  operation  for  six  months.  During  that  time  we  have  analyzed 
1,984  samples  of  food  products  and  541  of  drugs.  Of  these  analyses  2,177 
have  been  reported  in  full  in  the  November  and  January  bulletins  and 
need  no  further  mention.  In  the  last  month  we  have  examined  5G  sam- 
ples of  molasses,  31  samples  of  honey,  40  miscellaneous  food  samples, 
221  samples  of  drugs,  such  as  sodium  phosphate,  sulphur,  beeswax,  etc. 
Of  these  unreported  food  samples  65  per  cent,  have  been  pure  and  35  per 
cent,  adulterated,  and  of  the  drug  samples  38  per  cent,  have  been  pure 
and  62  per  cent,  adulterated.  In  passing  I  may  observe  that  all  ttie  sul- 
phur samples  were  adulterated,  and  that  most  of  the  beeswax  was  paraf- 
fin. So  that  to  date  the  analytical  work  on  foods  and  drugs  has  given  us 
the  following  results: 

Total  number  of  samples  examined 2,398 

Total  number  of  samples  pure 995 

Total  number  of  samples  adulterated 1,403 

Percentage  of  adulteration 59.47 

Much  of  oar  time  has  also  been  devoted  to  the  sanitary  analyses  of 
waters,  usually  sent  in  by  members  of  boards  of  health  and  health  offi- 
cers. We  have  examliie.d  272  samples  of  water  and  have  found  125  sup- 
plies polluted  and  unfit  for  drinking  or  domestic  purposes.  It  is  evident 
that  the  shallow  dug  well,  supplied  by  surface  water,  is  a  menace  to  the 
health  of  the  individual  and  the  community.  Of  113  shallow  well  waters 
analyzed  85,  or  75.3  per  cent.,  have  been  polluted  by  sewage.  Many  sup- 
plies were  actually  dangerous.  Many  others  were  evidently  liable  at  any 
time  to  pass  out  of  the  safe  class  and  become  foci  for  the  spread  of  water 
borne  diseases.  The  driven  or  deep  wells  are  a  much  safer  source  of  sup- 
ply. Our  results  show  that  43.4  per  cent,  of  the  wells  examined  have 
been  contaminated,  but  the  large  percentage  of  polluted  supplies  is  in  a 
great  measure  due  to  the  fact  that  well  owners  call  all  bored  or  driven 
wells  deep  wells,  when  the  results  of  our  analyses  indicate  that  they 
really  should  be  classed  as  shallow  or  surface  water  wells.

The  salary  list  of  the  laboratory  for  the  last  six  months  approximates 
12,100.  The  normal  running  expenses  are  not  over  $100  a  month.  If,  by 
reason  of  abnormally  heavy  expenses  during  the  month  of  October  inci- 
dent to  the  collecting  of  4,000  samples  of  food  products,  we  set  the  total 
expense  of  the  laboratory  since  it  was  opened  for  worli  at  $3,000,  i  of 
which  has  been  used  in  the  water  laboratory,  we  find  that  the  cost  of  col- 
lection and  analysi8~~of  each  food  sample  has  been  80.6  cents  and  of  each 
water  sample  $3.68.  If  on  the  other  hand  we  credit  the  laboratory  with 
the  regular  fees  for  the  analytical  work  done,  the  fees  paid  the  chemists 
of  the  Ohio  Food  (Commission  for  example,  it  appears  that  the  laboratory 
has  yarned: 

In  301  milk  analyses  at  $2  per  sample $602 

In  2,097  food  and  drug  analyses  at  $5 10,485 

In  272  sanitary  water  analyses  at  $10 2,720 

A  total  of. $13,807 

A  practical  saving  to  the  State  over  the  cost  of  operation  of  $10,807. 

Outline  of  Proposed  Work. &#; We  have  still  on  hand  about  two  hun- 
dred samples  of  food  products  collected  last  fall.  These  samples  will  be 
analyzed  and  the  results  reported  in  an  early  bulletin.  We  have  on  hand 
several  hundred  samples  of  drugs,  chiefly  tinctures,  which  are  now  in 
process  of  analysis.  We. also  have  before  us  the.  examinations  of  more 
than  200  samples  of  patent  and  proprietary  medicine,  such  as  blood  reme- 
dies, catarrh  and  cough  cures,  toilet  preparations,  etc. 

This  work  will  soon  be  completed,  and  it  will  then  be  necessary  to 
collect  other  samples.  The  present  laboratory  force  can  not  afford  to 
leave  their  analytical  work  to  act  as  inspectors  for  more  than  brief 
periods,  and  it  will  be  advisable  that  a  deputy  food  and  drug  inspector 
be  employed  throughout  the  summer  months.  One  of  the  most  important 
branches  of  food  inspection  is  that  of  dairy  products.  And  beginning 
with  the  month  of  May  we  should  endeavor  to  secure  from  cities  and 
towns  samples  of  milk  for  analysis.  We  shall  have  to  rely  upon  local 
aid  for  making  the  collections,  and  we  have  already  received  assurances 
of  assistance  from  several  health  officers.  Unfortunately  there  is  no  ade- 
quate law  now  on  the  statutes  by  which  we  can  punish  the  sellers  of 
illegal  milk,  and  we  shall  be  forced  to  conduct  prosecutions  in  local  courts 
under  local  ordinances. 

Many  analyses  of  butters  have  sliown  that  much  oleomargarine  is  be- 
ing sold  as  butter  throughout  the  State,  and  investigation  shows  that  no 
attention  is  paid  by  restaurant  koor)ers  and  dealers  to  displaying  the  signs* 
"Oleomargarine  used  or  sold  here."  I  find  that  there  is  on  the  statutes 
a  law  passed  in    which  is  amply  sufl5cient  to  control  the  situation  if 
it  can  be  applied.  There  is  some  question  as  to  its  present  legality,  how- 
ever, and  I  suggest  that  it  be  tested  in  court,  that  if  necessary  It  may  be 
amended  so  as  to  be  operative. 

I  think  it  advisable  to  make  a  special  study  of  the  quality  of  the  soft 
drinks  so  lare:ely  eoiisunietl  in  the  summer  months.  Tlieir  composition  Is 
at  least  uncertain,  and  I  l)elieve  in  many  cases  of  positive  injury  to  the 
consumer.

Tlie  conditiou  of  the  public  and  private  water  supplies  is  deplorable. 
While  it  may  never  be  possible  to  eradicate  completely  the  filthy  disease 
producing  family  wells  so  situated  as  to  be  a  cesspool. for  effluents  from 
the  barnyard  and  sink  drains  and  privy,  careful  systematic  insi)ection  of 
public  supplies  is  possible,  and  should  be  made  in  the  future  for  the  pur- 
pose of  finding  out  the  condition  of 'the  water  systems.  X  have  collected 
from  eveiy  large  town  and  city  statistics  of  their  public  water  supply, 
giving  source,  system  of  operation,  per  capita  consumption  and  number 
of  persons  supplied.  During  the  summer  we  should  analyze  as  many  of 
the  public  supplies  as  possible  and  arrange  to  make  systematic  inspec- 
tions several  times  each  year.  For  the  isolated  farmhouse  well  a  chem- 
ical analysis  is  usually  quite  sufficient  to  determine  the  quality  of  the  sup- 
ply, but  in  order  to  arrive  at  a  correct  valuation  of  the  purity  of  a  public 
system  operated  perhaps  under  changing  conditions  both  the  chemical  and 
the  ImcJteriological  analyses  must  be  made. 

'it  must  be  remembered  that  as  the  work  of  the  laboratory  becomes 
known  throughout  the  Stale  an  increasing  number  of  miscellaneous  sam- 
ples of  foods,  drugs  and  water  is  constantly  coming  in  for  analysis,  and 
therefore  due  consideration  must  be  given  this  routine  work,  which,  while 
I^erhaps  not  of  special  importance  to  the  public  at  large,  Is  frequently  of 
great  value  in  impressing  the  worth  of  the  laboratory  upon  individual 
citizens  whose  support w^e  desire. 

Suggestions  for  New  Legislation. &#; The  present  pure  food  law,  while 
admirable  in  its  general  plan,  is  Wholly  useless  as  a  means  of  bringing 
violators  of  the  provisions  of  the  law  to  justice.  This  is  due  to  the  fact 
that  the  penalty  clause  of  the  law  was  evidently  Vwritten  in"  by  interests 
opposed  to  the  bill,  so  that  at  present  offenders  must  "knowingly  sell" 
"articles  injurious  to  health,"  thus  making  it  necessary  for  the  board  to 
prove  not  only  knowledge  on  the  part  of  the  seller  but  also  the  injurious 
composition  of  the  goods.  The  bill  should  ho  simply  amended  ho  that  the 
l»enalty  clause  will  read  in  effecv: 

"All  persons  violating  the  provisions  of  this  act  shall  be  for  the  first 
offense  subject  to  a  fine  of  $10  and  costs;  for  the  second  offense  subject 
to  a  fine  of  $50  and  costs;^for  the  third  offense  subject  to  a  tine  of  $100 
and  costs,  and  three  months  in  Jail." 

A  specific  milk  law  is  alisolutely  necessary.  Last  fall  I  endeavored 
in  two  cases  to  secure  conviction  of  persons  guilty  of  selling  preserved 
and  watered  milk.  At  Jeffersonville  the  grand  jury  refused  to  indict  be- 
cause it  was  so  evident  tlie  ulTendors  could  not  be  convicted  under  the 
law,  and  at  Terre  Haute  the  justice  of  the  peace  before  whom  a  case  of 
watering  was  brought  reh\ise(i  the  offenders  because  it  was  impossible 
to  prove  the  vendor  knew  the  milk  to  be  adulterated.  The  loss  of  these 
two  cases,  one  tried  under  the  general  food  laAV  and  the  otlier  under  the 
siK»cific  milk  law,  proved  how  futile  it  was  to  attempt  to  convict  an  of- 
fender under  the  present  food  statutes. 

At  the  present  time  the  supervision  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  over 
public  water  supplies  is  limltiMl  and  productive  of  small  results.  With  a 
water  laboratoiy  at  its  disposal  the  board  should  be  given  control  of  all 
])Ublic  supplies.  If  t\  law  which  has  boon  In  successful  operation  in 
Massachusetts  for  some  yonis  could  bo  enacted,  giving  the  supervision 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


60 

of  all  public  waters  to  the  board,  with  authority  to  grant  improvemeats 
uud  extensions  after  due  examination  of  the  conditions,  not  only  would 
the  quality  of  the  present  supplies  be  imi>roved  but  waste  of  money  and 
endangered  health  would  be  prevented. 

The  disposal  of  sewage,  household  and  manufacturing  wastes  is  also 
a  problem  capable  ot  being  efficiently  attacked  by  means  of  the  labora- 
tory, and  prompt  measures  are  necessary  If  we  are  to  conserve  the  purity 
of  the  streams  and  ponds  which  are  the  natural  source  of  water  supply. 

While  I  realize  the  limitations  placed  upoju  the  board  in  the  jcnatter  of 
Increasing  the  salary  of  the  chemist,  because  the  amount  to  be  paid  is 
fixed  by  statutes,  yet  I  venture  to  suggest  to  you  for  your  consideration 
the  following  facts: 

First &#; $1,500  per  year  is  wholly  inadequate  compensation  for  the  serv- 
ices required  of  your  chemist 

Second &#; He  is  in  charge  of  two  laboratories,  food  and  water,  as  either 
department  is  sufficient  to  command  his  undivided  attention.  The  Board 
of  Health  of  Massachusetts  employs  two  chemists  as  heads  of  their  food 
and  water  laboratories,  paying  each  of  them  $2,800  per  year. 

Third &#; He  accepted  this  position  with  your  board  with  full  knowl- 
edge of  present  conditions,  yet  to  do  so  refused  a  position  as  head  of  the 
government  import  laboratories  at  $2,000  per  year,  for  he  received  the  as- 
surance of  your  secretary  that  he  would  strive  to  have  the  salary  in- 
creased at  the  earliest  opportunity,  and  had  faith  that  the  board  would  be 
able  to  secure  the  necessary  legislation. 

The  work  required  of  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene  is  bound  to  increase 
rapidly  as  its  availability  and  value  become  known,,  and  the  expense  of 
operation  will  thereby  become  greater.  As  already  suggested,  food  in- 
spectors are  necessary.  A  food  law  without  inspectors  to  see  that  It  is 
enforced  is  bound  to  become  crippled  and  to  lose  its  value.  While  I  do 
not  believe  in  a  corps  of  deputies,  I  do  think  that  we  should  have  at  least 
one  conii>etent  man  on  the  road  all  the  time  and  the  funds  available  for 
another  if  he  is  needed.  We  also  must  have  funds  to  conduct  prosecu- 
tions, for  we  can  not  always  rely  on  local  prosecutors  to  convict  offenders. 
It  is  evident  that  more  money  is  needed  for  the  successful  operation  of 
the  laboratory  If  it  is  to  attain  to  its  fullest  usefulness,  and  I  beg  to  sug- 
gest that  an  increased  appropriation  of  $5,000  be  asked  of  the  incoming 
legislature. 

REPORT  OF  THE  BACTERIOLOGICAL  LABORATORY  FOR  THE 
FIRST  CALENDAR  QUARTER  OF  190(1. 

By  T.  Victor  Keene. 

The  Bacteriological  Laboratory  was  put  into  commission  January  1, 
,  although  much  work  had  been  done  previous  to  the  formal  opening 
of  the  laboratory.  Since  the  laboratory  has  been  opened  a  great  deal  of 
our  time  and  energy  has  been  spent  in  devising  a  systematic  method  of 
keeping  a  record  of  tlie  work  done,  as  well  as  devising  methods  of  tech- 
nique. 

Method  of  Keeping  Records. &#; It  was  early  seen  that  It  would  be 
necessary  to  devise  some  method  of  keeping  the  records  so  that  they 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


61 

could  be  readily  refen-ed  to.  All  the  records  are  now  kept  as  follows: 
We  have  one  card  containing  a  full  history  of  tlie  case.  This  history 
card  gives  the  clinical  histoi-y  of  the  case  and  the  record  of  when  the 
specimen  was  sent  to  the  laboratory,  when  it  was  received,  when  the  re- 
port was  mailed,  and  of  course  the  results  of  the  finding.  This  one  card 
contains  full  information  regarding  the  case.  These  cards  are  kept  in 
consecutive  order,  each  card  being  given  a  number.  It  is  very  obvious 
that  the  persons  most  liable  to  refer  to  this  record  are  the  physician  in 
the  case  and  the  patient,  so  we  have  a  cross-index  system  containing  the 
name  of  the  patient,  the  nature  of  the  specimen,  result  of  the  examina- 
tion and  the  file  number  of  the  card  giving  the  complete  history.  This 
file  by  patients  is  kept  alphabetically.  Each  physician  of  the  State  who 
submits  for  examination  a  specimen  of  any  variety  is  given  a  separate 
card  in  our  index  file  of  physicians,  and  on  this  card  we  have  a  record 
of  the  date  on  which  we  made  the  examination  for  him  for  typhoid  fev'^r, 
diphtheria  or  tuberculosis.  This  card  also  refers  back  to  the  card  con- 
taining the  complete  history  of  the  case.  The  index  to  the  physicians  and 
patients  is  alphabetically  arranged. 

As  a  further  aid  in  completing  our  cross-index  we  have  a  set  of  cards 
giving  the  name  of  both  the  physician  and  the  patie;^t,  arranged  by  coun- 
ties, so  that  at  any  time  we  can  refer  to  any  individual  county  and  in  a 
few  seconds  know  Just  how  much  work  and  what  variety  of  work  the 
laboratory  has  done  for  any  particular  section  of  the  State.  This  method 
of  keeping  the  records  is  an  original  one.  The  idea  of  course  is  the  card 
system  in  common  use  in  many  lines  of  business.  These  records  are  re- 
ferred to  much  oftener  than  would  be  supposed.  We  have  on  a  few  occa- 
sions had  physicians  complain  that  reports  had  not  been  sent  to  them. 
Reference  to  the  record  shows  at  once  the  exact  date  the  report  was 
made.  We  have  on  two  occasions  had  physicians  allege  that  examinations 
made  in  our  laboratory  gave  certain  findings,  while  examinations  made 
by  other  physicians  gave  entirely  different  findings.  Referring  to  our 
record  we  are  able  at  a  glance  to  tell  Just  exactly  what  our  findings  had 
been,  and  in  both  cases  they  were  exactly  similar  to  the  findings  reported 
by  other  physicians. 

Letter  to  Medical  Societies. &#; It  has  l>een  very  obvious  for  some  time 
that  the  physicians  throughout  the  State  at  large  did  not  know  about  the 
laboratory.  While  the  health  officers  of  the  State  have  been  informed  re- 
garding the  same,  it  seemed  to  us  that  they  had  failed  to  inform  the 
physicians  of  their  respective  communities  regarding  the  laboratory,  as  it 
was  an  almost  daily  occurrence  for  physicians  from  various  parts  of  the 
State  visiting  Indianapolis  to  drop  Into  the  laboratory  and  express  great 
surprise  at  the  existence  of  the  same.  Various  means  of  acquainting  the 
profession  of  the  existence  of  the  laboratory.  Its  scope  of  work,  etc.,  were 
discussed,  and  It  was  finally  decided  to  address  a  letter  to  the  secretary 
of  every  medical  society  of  the  State  apprising  them  of  the  fact  that  the 
laboratory  was  now  ready  to  receive  specimens  and  advising  them  how  to 
ship  the  skme,  etc.  We  further  asked  the  secretary  to  bring  up  the  mat- 
ter before  the  society  and  extend  to  tlie  society  an  invitation  to  submit 
specimens  to  the  laboratory.  We  have  received  answers  from  nearly  half 
of  the  letters  sent  out,  and  nearly  all  the  answers  received  seemed  to  show 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


62 

that  the  writer  had  not  been  aware  of  the  existence  of  this  laboratoiT- 
However,  this  work  will  roach  only  a  small  percentage  of  I  he  physicians 
in  the  State,  and  1  would  respectfully  reconunend  that  the  board  authorize 
the  issuing  and  sending  out  of  a  letter  to  every  physician  of  the  State 
apprising  him  of  the  existence  of  the  laboratory  and  inviting  hliu  to  send 
in  specimens.  The  cost  of  such  a  letter  need  not  be  great.  I  feel  cer- 
tain that  the  expenditure  would  be  justified,  and  that  it  will  greatly  in- 
crease the  amount  of  service  we  would  render  the  public. 

Organization  of  Laboratory  Proper. &#; There  are  a  grejit  many  solu- 
tions, reagents,  stains  and  varieties  of  culture  media  which  have  to  be 
made  up  in  the  laboratory.  We  have  practically  spent  the  greater  part 
of  the  time  since  the  first  of  the  year  in  getting  our  laboratory  stocked 
with  these  things. 

&#;  We  have  on  hand  at  this  time  twelve  liters  of  Ziehl  Neilson*s  Carbol- 
fuschin,  eight  litres  of  Gabbet's  Sulphuric  Acid  decolorizing  solution, 
three  litres  of  Loeflier's  Methyline  Blue  Solution,  one  litre  of  Wright's 
Blood  Stain;  six  litres  of  Delafield's  Haeniotoxylin  Solution,  one  litfe  of 
Eosiu,  and  numerous  other  stains  in  smaller  quantities.  These  stains, 
which  we  have  made  up  in  such  large  quantities,  are  stains  which  im- 
prove as  they  become  older,  and  it  is  always  a  matter  of  great  con- 
venience to  a  laboratory  to  have  old  stains  to  use,  as  they  are  much  more 
reliable  and  certain  in  tlieir  results.  We  have  the  stains  made  up  to  do 
practically  any  variety  of  bacteriological  and  pathological  work,  although, 
of  course,  we  do  not  have  the  stains  made  which  deteriorate  when  in 
solution.  In  addition  to  the  stains  we  have  made  up  and  ready  for  imme- 
diate use  the  various  hardening  and  fixing  solutions  used  for  the  preserv- 
ing of  tissues,  including  the  Kaiserling  solution  for  the  preseVvation  of 
gross  pathological  si)ecimcns.  We  are  from  time  to  time,  as  opportunity 
offers,  adding  or  collecting  Interesting  pathological  specimens,  and  while 
we  may  not  be  able  to  make  much  of  a  show  at  this  year's  meeting  of 
the  Indiana  State  Medical  Society,  it  is  our  ambition  to  each  year  have 
an  interesting  exhibit  before  the  State  Medical  Society  from  the  Labora- 
tory of  Hygiene  of  the  State  Board. 

We  have  made  up  a  large  variety  of  culture  media,  including  the 
various  sugar  broths,  gelatines  and  agars.  While  we  fully  realize  that 
for  the  time  being  at  least  research  work  in  the  laboratiuy  must  be  made 
secondaiy  to  the  routine  work,  we  have,  however,  been  doing  such  as  our 
time  would  allow.  Practically  all  the  research  work  we  Iiave  done  has 
been  along  the  lines  of  culture  media. 

Diphtheria  Serum. &#; The  manufacture  of  blood  serum  for  diphtheria 
nliagnosis  is  a  difficult  proposition,  as  tlie  media  dries  up  rapidly  and  tends 
to  become  contaminated  very  easily.  Within  the  last  few  months  Wes- 
brook,  superintendent  of  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene  of  the  Minnesota 
Board  of  Health,  published  a  paper  advocating  the  use  of  a  spmll  amount 
of  glycerine  in  the  blood  serum,  claiming  for  it  that  such  serum  did  not 
dry  out  so  rapidly,  and  tliat  the  presence  of  the  glycerine  would  prevent 
the  growtli  of  certain  varieties  of  baderia.  This  was  in  keeping  with  a 
well-known  fact  that  vaccine  virus  if  marketed  in  glycerine  did  not  tend 
to  become  contaminated,  as  the  glycerine  was  sufficiently  antiseptic  to 
destroy  large  numbers  of  bacteria.     Wesbrook  further  claimed  that  the 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


63 

diphtheria  bacillus  was  not  affected  by  glycerine,  but  grew  readily.  It  is 
vei-y  obvious  that  if  his  claims  were  warranted  the  glycerine  serum  would 
be  much  better  than  serum  without  it,  so  we  have  been  experimenting 
with  blood  serum  with  various  percentages  of  glycerine  in  it,  and  have 
found  that  blood  serum  containing  5  per  cent,  glycerine  makes  an  ad- 
mirable culture  media  for  diphtheria  bacilli.  We  expect  to  use  this 
glycerine  serum  instead  of  the  plain  serum  hereafter,  as  it  Is  superior  to 
plain  serum. 

Typhoid  Fever. &#; Conrade,  in  the  Deut.  Ikfed.  Woch..  January  11,  100(5, 
published  a  paper  on  the  result  of  some  observations  he  had  been  making 
on  the  early  isolation  of  typhoid  bacteria  from  the  blood  of  typhoid  pa- 
tients. It  is  a  well-known  fact  that  in  practically  all  cases  of  typhoid 
fever  by  the  time  the  individual  sickens  with  the  disease  the  typhoid 
bacteria  are  in  the  blood.  It  is  further  well  known  that  there  are  several 
features  which  make  its  isolation  vei^y  difficult,  the  most  prominent  of 
which  is  the  fact  that  shed  blood  is  about  ton  times  as  germicidal  as 
blood  In  the  blood  vessels,  due  to  the  coagulation  of  the  blood  and  the 
breaking  down  of  the  white  blood  cells  into  nuclenic  acid.  Conrade's 
work  was  as  follows:  He  drew  blood  from  patients  into  a  sterile  pipette, 
in  which  was  a  small  amount  of  a  5  per  cent,  solution  of  ox  bile,  the  ol)- 
ject  of  the  ox  bile  being  to  prevent  coagulation  of  the  blood.  This  blood 
was  then  put  in  a  culture  media  in  a  broth  of  specli\l  formula,  and  the 
typhoid  bacteria  grew  readily  in  most  cases.  It  at  once  occurred  to  us 
that  this  could  be  utilized  in  a  practical  way  iii  a  public  health  laboratory, 
and  we  are  at  present  working  on  the  following  hypothesis: 

We  know  absolutely  that  we  can  get  typhoid  bacteria  from  the  blood 
the  first  or  second  day.  We  know  further  that  it  is  only  a  matter  of  a 
few  hours  before  they  have  grown  in  suflficient  numbers  in  the  tube  that 
we  can  see  the  actively  motile  bacteria  under  the  microscope.  The 
identity  of  the  typhoid  bacteria  can  be  established  by  discovering  a  motile 
organism  present,  and  subjecting  this  motile  organism  to  the  action  of  a 
typhoid  bacteria  it  will  agglutinate:  if  it  is  not  the  typlioid  organism  It 
will  not  agglutinate,  so  the  plan  we  have  in  mind  for  utilizing  these  ob- 
servations in  this  laboratory  was  as  follows: 

We  would  put  out  an  outfit  composed  of  a  small  sterile  pipette,  sealed 
at  both  ends  and  having  in  its  bulb  some  of  the  ox  bile  solution.  The 
physician  would  be  instructed  to  break  off  both  ends  of  the  pipette,  which 
would  of  course  allow,  the  bile  solution  to  flow  out,  but  a  sufficient 
amount  would  adhere  to  the  walls  to  prevent  the  blood  from  coagulating. 
He  would  then  draw  his  blood  under  aseptic  precautions  and  inoculate  a 
tube  of  media  of  the  variety  needed.  This  he  would  ship  to  us  and  we 
would  incubate  it,  and  at  the  end  of  twelve  hours  examine  the  culture  to 
determine  whether  or  not  there  were  any  motile  organisms  present.  If 
there  were  any  motile  organisms  present  we  would  test  the  organism  with 
a  known  typhoid  serum,  and  if  the  same  agglutinated  we  would  be  cer- 
tain that  the  organism  was  a  typhoid  organism.  The  difficulty  in  the 
way  of  making  "the  test  lies  in  the  fact  that  the  postal  regulations  do  not 
allow  the  shipping  of  liquid  media,  so  It  la  necessaiy  to  devise  some  va- 
riety of  solid  media  which  would  work.  We  have  spent  a  great  deal  of 
time  working  with   various   modifications,  of  gelatine  and   agar,   all  of

which  we  have  found  onsatlsfactoiT.  We  are  at  this  time  working  on  a 
cultnre  media  the  solid  part  of  which  will  be  composed  of  a  low  melting: 
paraffin,  the  idea  being  that  this  being  a  solid  media  it  will  conform  witb 
the  requirements  of  the  government  in  regard  to  shipping,  but  being  a  low 
melting  paraffin  it  will  at  once  become  a  fluid  media  when  put  Into  the 
incubator.  The  practical  advantage  of  this  work,  If  after  experimenta- 
tion It  is  found  to  be  as  practical  as  it  seems  to  be  In  theory,  we  will  be 
able  to  arrive  at  a  diagnosis  of  typhoid  fever  at  the  very  beginning  of  the 
disease,  as  early  as  the  first  or  second  day;  whereas  with  the  Widal  Reac- 
tion, which  we  at  present  use,  and  which  is  in  common  use  in  public 
health  laboratories,  we  are  only  able  to  arrive  at  a  diagnosis  not  earlier 
than  the  fifth  day,  and  usually  about  the  seventh  or  eighth  day.

Ordered,  That  copies  of  the  following  circular  be  sent  to  the 
presidents  of  all  county  medical  societies: 

OIEOULAE. 

Dear  Doctor &#; It  wiH  be  appreciated  if  you  wiU  call  the  attention  of 
your  Society  to  tlie  fact  that  the  Bacteriological  Department  of  the 
laboratory  of  Hygiene,  of  the  State  Board  of  Health,  is  in  good  working 
order  and  ready  to  receive  specimens  for  examination.  We  have  already 
received  a  great  many  specimens  for  examination  from  various  parts  of 
the  State,  but  we  have  not  received  as  many  from  your  locality  as  we 
expected  to  receive. 

There  is  enclosed  herewith  a  circular  of  directions  as  to  the  manner 
of  shipping  specimens.  We  are  permitted  by  law  to  undertake  only 
such  work  as  Is  related  to  public  health,  and  to  this  end  we  examine 
sputa  submitted  for  examination  for  tubercle  bacilli;  samples  of  blood 
from  suspected  typhoid  fever  patients  for  the  Widal  Reaction,  and  cul- 
tures made  from  sore  throats,  suspected  to  X^e  cases  of  diphtheria. 

We  are  prepared  also  to  undertake 'practically  any  laboratory  ex- 
amination that  might  be  desired  by  the  physician,  provided,  of  course, 
the  same  is  a  matfer  of  public  health  administration.  We  will  examine 
urine  for  tubercle  bacilli,  although  we  do  not  make  a  chemical  examina- 
tion of  urine  nor  examine  for  any  other  elements  than  tubercle  bacilli. 
We  will  mail  to  any  physician,  requesting  the  same,  a  full  set  of  outfits 
for  the  collection  and  shipping  of  specimens  Intended  for  examination  to 
the  laboratory.  We  shall  be  glad  to  send  you  an  equipment  of  the  same, 
should  you  desire  it. 

We  hope  to  make  the  Laboratory  a  power  for  good  in  the  State,  and 
are  desirous  that  the  physicians  of  your  Society  and  section  of  the  State 
become  as  interested  and  use  the  Laboratory  as  freely  as  the  physicians 
of  other  sections  of  the  State  have  already  done.

SANITARY  SURVEY  OF  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  WEST  NEWTON,  DE- 
CATUR. TOWNSHIP,  MARION  COUNTY. 

By  J.  N.  Huity. 

In  responjse  to  an  invitation  of  the  Trustee,  Mr.  J.  D.  Sandei's,  and 
several  patrons  of  the  school,  the  State  Health  Officer  made  an  inspection 
of  the  schoolhouse  at  West  Newton,  April  23,  190U.  This  schoolhouse  is 
linown  as  West  Newton  School  No.  3. 

Site. &#; ^The  site  comprises  about  two  acres.  It  is  high  and  rolling 
and  well  drained.    It  is  in  every  way  satisfactory. 

The  Building.&#; The  building  is  frame,  built  in  .  There  are  three 
rooms  above  and  three  below;  no  basement;  narrow  box  winding  stair- 
way, heated  by  Ideal  Heaters,  which  are  not  satisfactory.  There  are 
two  fire  escapes  on  the  building.  The  foundation  is  brici^  and  somewhat 
washed  by  water,  but  not  dangerous,  nor  could  it  be  termed  bad.  The 
steps  are  in  bad  repair;  the  floors  are  worn  and  very  poor,  yet  the  build- 
ing can  not  be  said  to  be  dilapidated.- 

First  Floor. &#; The  building  is  entered  by  a  vestibule  facing  the  west. 
From  the  vestibule  a  narrow  winding  stairway  leads  to  the  upper  story. 
Two  doors  open  from  the  vestibule,  one  into  the  primary  room  and  one 
into  the  room  for  the  Sixth  anO  Seventh.  Grad>es. 

Primary  Room.&#; It  is  24xb  xl2,  total  8,640  cubic  feet,  furnishing 
space  for  forty  children.  There  axd  41  seats;  enrollment  41,  average  daily 
attendance  32.  The  light  is  admitted  from  three  sides  and  the  teacher 
is  compelled  to  look  into  the  light  Considerable  space  in  this  room  is 
occupied  by  the  Ideal  Heater.  Blacl^boards  glossy  and  teachers  com- 
plain of  this. 

Sixth  and  Seventh  Grade  Rooms.&#; This  room  is  24x30x12,  total  8,640 
cubic  feet.  Enrollment  26;  average  attendance  22.  Floors  worn,  glossy 
blackboards.  Much  space  in  this  room  is  occupied  by  the  large  Ideal 
Heater.  It  is  lighted  from  three  sides  and  the  teacher  is  compelled  to 
look  into  the  light 

Third,  Fourth  and  Fifth  Grade  Rooms. &#; This  room  was  built  on  to 
the  main  building  some  time  after  first  construction.  It  is  entered  by  a 
vestibule  built  inside  the  room.  The  said  vestibule  is  used  as  a  cloak 
room.  The  room  is  30x30x12,  which  is  9,600  cubic  feet,  supplying  space 
for  48  pupils.  There  are  50  seats*  enrollment  46,  average  attendance  40. 
Glossy  blackboards,  floors  worn,  considerable  space  occupied  by  the  large 
Ideal  Heater.  The  light  is  admitted  from  three  sides,  and  the  teacher  is 
compelled  to  look  into  the  light 

Second  Floor. &#; Second  floor  is  reached  by  a  winding  narrow  box 
stairway,  which  opens  into  a  vestibule.  Vestibule  is  lighted  by  two 
windows  and  is  used  for  a  cloak  room.    One  room  opens  into  a  narrow

hall,  which  has  been  created  by  building  a  partition  through  a  room 
which  is  immediately  above  the  primary  room.  The  room  partitioned  off 
as  described  is  used  for  a  laboratoiy,  is  lighted  from  three  sides,  floors 
are  worn,  blackboards  glossy,  ajid  is  heated  by  the  Ideal  Heater  in  the 
room  below. 

Eighth  Grade  Room. &#; This  is  the  high  school  room  and  it  is  30x30x12, 
which  makes  9,600  cubic  feet,  space  for  48  pupils;  enrollment  52,  and 
average  daily  attendance  not  given.  The  room  is  lighted  from  three 
sides.  Glossy  blackboards,  floors  worn,  heated  by  the  heater  in  the  room 
below.    Teacher  faces  light. 

Third  and  Fourth  Grade  Room. &#; This  room  is  the  second  story  of 
the  addition  which  has  before  been  described.  It  is  30x30x12,  making 
9,600  cubic  feet,  furnishing  room  for  48  pupils.  It  contains  50  seats; 
glossy  blackboards;  lighted  from  three  sides;  the  floors  are  worn.  The 
teacher  is  compelled  to  look  into  the  light.  Warmed  by  the  Ideal  Heater 
in  the  room  below. 

Remarks. &#; Whooping  cough  prevailed  in  the  school  towards  spring, 
but  no  epidemic  diseases.  Coughs,  colds  and  catarrhs  prevalent  every 
winter. 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; It  is  very  plain  that  this  schoolhouse 
is  not  sanitary.  On  account  of  defective  lighting  the  eyes  of  both  teachers 
and  pupils  are  being  injured,  and  on  account  of  defective  heating  and 
ventilation  their  general  health  is  being  injured.  It  is  very  apparent  that 
the  building  can  not  be  repaired  so  as  to  make  it  sanitary,  and  I  there- 
fore recommend  its  condemnation. 

After  consideration  of  the  above  survey,  and  after  hearing  argu- 
ments from  patrons  for  and  against  condemnation,  which  argu- 
ments were  duly  considered,  the  following  order  of  condemnation 
was  unanimously  passed: 

PROCLAMATION  OF  CONDEMNATION  OF  THE  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT 
WEST  NEWTON,  MARION  COUNTY,   INDIANA. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Indiana  State 
Board  of  Health  that  the  schoolhouse  at  West  Newton,  Decatur  Town?- 
ship,  Marion  County,  Indiana,  is  unsanitary  and  unlit  for  school  purposes; 
it  is  therefore 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhous(i  is  condemned  and  shall  not  be  used 
for  school  purposes  from  tliis  date,  May  18,  190(>,  foi^ward.  And  in  the 
event  of  the  trustee  or  any  school  teacher  or  any  person  violating  this 
order  of  condemnation,  tlu-u  the  Secretary  of  the  State  Board  of  Health 
shall  duly  inform  the  Attoriicy-CJtMieral,  wlio  will  bring  prosecution  as  In 
the  statutes  provided.

Building. &#; The  buildlDg  is  an  old  frame  with  a  much  worn  founda- 
tion, holes  are  torn  or  broken  in,  and  there  are  cracks  in  the  foundation 
in  several  places.  The  building  is  one  story.  The  plaster  is  off  in  places 
and  there  are  cracks  in  the  ceiling  and  walls. 

Eighth  (^rade  Room. &#; This  room  is  24x32x14  feet,  making  the  cubic 
contents  10J52  feet     This  supplies  space  sufficient  for  51  pupils.    The 

enrollment  is ,  and  the  attendance  is  .    The  light  is  introduced 

from  two  sides.  On  the  west  side  there  are  four  windows  and  on  the 
south  there  are  two  windows.  The  teacher  is  compelled  to  look  into  the 
light.  Each  window  has  eight  glass  lights,  12x18  inches,  making  the 
total  glass  area  for  the  whole  room  of  72  square  feet.  The  required 
amount  would  be  128  square  feet.  The  room  is  therefore  not  properly 
lighted.  The  blackboards  are  glossy  and  chipped  in  places.  The  room 
is  heated  by  a  stove  and  there  arc  no  ventilating  shafts. 

Primary  Room.&#; This  room  is  24x24x14,  making  in  all  6,0C4  cubic 
feet,  furnishing  space  for  30  pupils.  The  enrollment  is  &#; ,  the  attendance 
is  &#; .  The  ari'angement  is  such  as  to  compel  the  teacher  to  look  into 
the  light  The  room  is  heated  by  a  stove.  There  are  no  ventilating 
shafts.    The  floor  is  bad. 

Outhouses. &#; These  are  well  .separated  and  are  in  passable  condition. 

Water  Supply. &#; The  water  Is  carried  from  a  well  at  a  farmhouse, 
about  one-eighth  of  a  mile  distant.  The  well  at  the  schoolhouse  furnishes 
water  which  is  impure  and  is  not  liked  by  the  children. 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; It  is  my  opinion  that  this  school- 
house  is  unsanitary  in  every  particular  and  unfit  for  school  purposes.  1 
recommend  that  the  same  be  condemned. 

Ater  consideration  of  the  above  survey,  and  after  hearing  argu- 
ments from  patrons  for  and  against  condemnation,  which  argu- 
ments were  duly  considered,  the  following  order  of  condemnation 
was  unanimously  adopted.

REPORT  OF  SANITARY  SURVEY   OF  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  MONU- 
MENT  CITY,    HUNTINGTON    COUNTY,   POLK   TOWNSHIP. 

Survey  Made  May  10,  ,  by  J.  N.  Hurty,  Secretary. 

Site. &#; The  schoolyard  covers  about  one  acre  and  is  well  situated. 
The  ground  is  high,  gi-avel  is  found  a  short  distance  beneath  the  surface 
and  the  natural  drainage  is  excellent;  so  good,  indeed,  as  not  to  require 
tiling. 

Building. &#; The  building  is  brick  with  a  stone  foundation;  no  base- 
ment, two  stories,  two  rooms,  built  about  twenty-five  years  ago.  The 
waUs  are  sound;  no  cracks.  The  entrance  is  by  one  front  door,  which 
opens,  into  a  small  vestibule  lighted  by  one  window.  No  provision  for 
warming  vestibule. 

Primary  Room. &#; The  primary  room  is  on  the  first  floor  and  is  entered 
through  a  door  from  the  vestibule.  It  is  30x24x12  feet,  which  makes 
9,504  cubic  feet,  furnishing  space  for  47  pupils.  The  room  contains  52 
desks,  enrollment  43,  average  attendance  40.  The  desks  are  of  the  old 
wooden  variety,  yet  are  of  good  condition.  Wraps  are  hung  on  hooks 
which  are  attached  to  the  east  wall  of  the  room.  The  floor  i9  in  bad 
repaix'.  Light  enters  by  six  windows,  three  on  each  side.  Each  window 
contains  eight  panes  of  glass,  12x18  inches.  This  does  not  furnish  enough 
light,  for  the  total  number  of  square  feet  amounts  to  72,  and  if  the  rule 
of  one-sixth  of  floor  area  should  be  in  glass  is  followed  there  should  be 
192  square  feet.  In  other  words,  there  is  not  quite  one-half  as  much 
light  as  sanitary  science  demands.  The  blackboards  are  slate  and  the 
room  is  warmed  by  a  stove.    There  are  no  ventilating  shafts. 

High  School. &#; The  high  school  room  is  on  the  second  floor  and  is 
reached  by  a  narrow  stairway  of  twenty  steps,  in  which  there  is  one 
turn.  This  stairway  is  not  of  the  .variety  known  as  *'box  stairway,"  but 
is,  nevertheless,  such  in  a  general  way,  because  it  is  so  narrow  and  so 
confined  in  a  small  vestibule.  If  this  schoolhouse  were  ever  to  catch  on 
fire  there  would  certainly  be  a  pile  of  corpses  to  count  in  and  upon  the

stairway.  This  schoolroom  is  36x22x10,  making  7,920  cnbic  feet,  which 
space  is  sufficient  for  39  pupils.  There  are  40  seats,  enrollment  is  29,  and 
average  attendance  27.  Floors  are  worn;  no  ventilating  shafts;  blaclc- 
boards  are  slate.  The  room  is  lighted  by  six  windows,  three  on  each 
side.  Bach  window  pane  is  12x18  inches,  eight  in  each  window,  making 
72  square  feet  of  lighting  surface.  The  sanitary  requirements  for  light- 
ing surface  for  this  room  would  be  192  square  feet  The  room  is  heated 
by  a  stove. 

The  Water. &#; The  water  is  supplied  from  a  drilled  well,  which  the 
trustee  said  was  110  feet  deep.  From  this  it  is  fair  to  presume  the  water 
is  potable. 

Outhouses. &#; The  two  outhouses  are  ordinary  frame  and  are  widely 
separated. 

Sickness. &#; ^The  testimony  was  to  the  effect  that  no  epidemics  had 
prevailed  among  the  school  children  within  the  last  few  years;  but,  as 
would  be  expected,  coughs,  colds,  and  acute  catarrhs  were  all  frequently 
reported. 

Recommendations. &#; ^As  the*  above  report,  measurements  and  all  con- 
siderations show  this  schoolhouse  to  be  unsanitaiy  and  not  up  to  stand- 
ards. I  therefore  recommend  its  condemnation. 

After  due  consideration  the  following  order  of  condemnation 
was  unanimously  adopted: 

PROCLAMATION  OF  CONDEMNATION  OF  THE  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT 
*      MONUMENT  CITY,  POLK  TOWNSHIP, 
HUNTINGTON  COUNTY. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  ro  the  satisfaction  of  the  Indiana  State 
Board  of  Health  that  the  schoolhouse  at  Monument  City,  Polk  Township,

therefore,  it  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  for  schooi  purposes 
and  shall  not  be  used  for  said  purposes  from  and  after  this  date.  May  18.

l)erson  u^ing  the  said  schoolhouse  for  school  purposes  then  the  Secretary 
of  thp  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health  shall  duly  inform  the  Attorney- 
General,  who  will  bring  prosecution  as  In  the  statutes  provided. 


REPORT   OF   SANITARY   SURVEY   OF   SCHOOLHOUSE    AT   ROCK 

&#;CREEK  CENTER,  ROCK  CREEK  TOWNSHIP, 

HUNTINGTON  COUNTY. 

Stfrvey  Made  May  10,  190(5,  by  Trustee  W.  D.  Cline. 

Site. &#; The  site  is  bad.  It  is  low,  wet  and  undrained.  and  can  only 
l»e  drained  with  difficulty. 

Building.&#; The  building  is  brick  with  stone  foundation,  built  In  . 
It  was  originally  a  one-room  building,  but  lately  it  had  been  made  into 
two  rooms  by  a  rough  board  partition.     The  building  is  entered  by  a

vestibule  provided  with  hooks  for  wraps.  The  vestibule  is  not  warmed, 
and  the  schoolroom  is  warmed  by  stoves.  There  are  large  craclts  at  the 
angle  formed  by  the  ceiling  and  side  walls.     There  is  no  basement. 

Primary  Room.&#; This  room  is  27x30x14  feet,  making  11,340  cubic 
feet;  tEis  is  only  room  for  56  pupils.  There  are  40  desks;  enrollment  &#; ; 
attendance  27.  The  room  is  lighted  by  three  windows  on  the  west  side 
and  one  on  the  north  side.  They  are  so  situated  as  to  admit  light  from 
the  right  side  of  the  children.  Each  pane  of  glass  is  8x22  inches,  making 
58  square  feet  The  floor  area  is  810  feet,  and  there  should  be  one-sixth 
of  this  area  in  glass &#; this  would  require  135  square  feet.  The  room, 
therefore,  has  only  about  one-half  as  much  light  as  sanitary  conditions 
require.  The  floor  is  in  good  condition.  The  desks  are  almost  new  and 
of  several  different  sizes. 

High  School  Room.&#; This  room  is  16x25x14,  making  6,720  cubic  feet, 
furnishing  space  for  34  pupils.  There  are  25  seats.  The  enrollment  is  &#; : 
attendance  20.  The  room  is  lighted  by  three  windows,  two  on  the  east 
and  one  on  the  north;  each  window  has  twelve  panes  of  glass,  12x22 
inches,  making  in  all  58  square  feet  of  glass  surface.  The  floor  area  is 
264  square  feet,  and  one-sixth  of  this,  or  44  square  feet  of  glass,  is  re- 
quired. The  lighting  is  therefore  sufficient.  The  light  falls  from  the  left 
shoulder  of  the 'pupils.     The  blackboards  are  slate. 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; I  am  decided  of  the  opinion  that 
the  site  of  this  school  building  is  damp  and  low  and  diflicult  to  drain 
and  should  be  condemned.  The  school  building  has  no  basement  beneath, 
is  damp,  hard  to  heat  by  stoves,  has  no  ventilating  ducts,  the  lighting  of 
one  room  is  insufficient,  the  vestibule  is  not  heated  and  Is  an  unfit  place 
for  wraps.  I  recommend  that  this  building  be  condemned  for  school 
purposes. 

After  due  consideration  of  the  above  survey,  the  following  order 
of  condemnation  was  unanimously  adopted: 

PROCLAMATION  OP  CONDEMNATION  OF  THE  SCHOOLHOUSB  AT

SANITARY  SURVEY  0¥   SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  KENNARD,  GREENS- 
BORO TOWNSHIP,  HENRY  COUNTY. 

By  Deputy  E.  H.  Brubaker. 

New  CasUe,  Ind.,  May  4,  . 

The  buildiug  is  a  frame  structure,  which  was  originaliy  one-story, 
consisting  of  three  rooms  and  a  hallway,  with  no  basement  Then  some 
years  later  the  second  story  was  added,  making  six  rooms  in  all.  The 
building  is  located  on  a  lot  of  ample  size  and  is  reasonably  well  drained, 
with  gravel  walks  leading  up  to  the  building  from  the  street  The 
building  is  in  a  bad  state  of  repair.  On  windy  days  the  building  can  be 
felt  to  vibrate  under  the  influence  of  the  wind.  On  one  extremely  windy 
day  the  teacher  felt  alarmed,  fearing  that  the  building  would  collapse 
under  the  force  of  the  wind.  In  one  place  the  weather  boarding  is  off, 
exposing  the  framework,  which  is  decayed. 

The  blackboards  are  all  slate  and  in  good  state  of  repair.  The  plaster- 
ing is  cracked  and  in  some  places  is  off.  The  ro6ms  are  all  lighted  by 
narrow  windows  and  the  north  room  on  the  ground  floor  is  very  dark, 
especially  on  cloudy  days. 

The  rooms  are  all  heated  by  stoves  and  on  moderately  cold  days  it  is 
impossible  to  get  any  of  the  rooms  warm  enough,  sometimes  the  tempera- 
ture of  the  rooms  is  not  above  G()  degrees  all  day.  This  is  especially  true 
on  windy  days. 

I  was  informed  that  there  were  many  cases  of  colds  and  coughs,  sore 
throats  and  pneumonia  and  allied  ailments  among  the  pupils  and  teachers, 
attributed  to  the  cold  and  illy  ventilated  condition  of  the  rooms.  Many 
of  the  days  the  teachers  and  pupils  wear  their  heavy  wraps  during  school 
hours. 

The  stairs  leading  to  the  second  floor  are  steep  and  dangerous,  rising 
14  feet  in  the  same  distance,  and  are  protected  by  no  railing.  They  are  9 
feet  wide.  In  all  of  the  rooms  the  floors  are  in  bad  repair,  with  holes  in 
same  with  boards  and  pieces  of  tin  nailed  over  them. 

In  the  lower  rooms  the  wraps  and  the  dinner  pails  or  baskets  are 
hung  in  the  schoolrooms.    Upstairs  they  are  kept  in  the  hall. 

The  desks  and  other  fixtures  are  only  in  a  fair  state  of  repair. 

The  only  means  of  ventilation  is  by  windows. 

The  enrollment  during  tlie  past  winter  was  as  follows:  Primary 
room,  35;  second  room,  grades  two  and  three,  38;  third  room,  grades  three 
and  four,  38;  fourth  room,  38;  flfth  room,  38;  high  school,  28;  making  a 
total  of  215  pupils.  The  enrollment  will  show  an  increase  for  next  winter. 
I  was  not  able  to  learn  the  average  attendance  for  last  winter. 

A  large  number  of  tlio  patrons  are  complaining  and  are  dissatisfied 
with  the  building. 

The  girls*  outhouse  is  112  feet  north  of  the  west  wing  of  the  build- 
ing and  the  boys'  outhouse  the  same  distance  north  of  the  east  wing  of 
the  school  building.    The  two  being  alxuit  10()  feet  apart. 

The  schoolhouse  is  in  a  vei-y  uiLsauitary  and  unsafe  condition,  the 
latter  being  enough  to  condonm  it.  I  would  recommend  the  condemna- 
tion of  the  schoolhouse  for  school  purposes.

REPORT  OF  SECOND  SANITARY  SURVEY  OF  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT 
AVON,  WASHINGTON  TOWNSHIP.  HENDRICKS  COUNTY. 

By  J.  N.  Hurty. 

E.  B.  Blah-,  Trustee. 

In  response  to  a  petition  from  patrons,  J.  L.  Anderson,  Deputy  State 
Health  Officer,  made  a  sanitary  survey  of  the  schoolhouse  at  Avon, 
February  1,  .  Said  survey  was  duly  presented  to  the  State  Board 
of  Health  at  a  special  meeting  held  March  7,  ,  and  after  due  con- 
sideration of  the  evidence  presented  the  schoolhouse  was  condemned. 

Due  notice  of  the  complete  proclamation  of  condemnation  was  duly 
posted  on  the  schoolhouse  and  the  trustee  was  formally  notified  by  Dr. 
W.  J.  Hoadley,  Health  Officer  of  Hendriclis  County. 

Now  come  Edward  Mills,  D.  W.  Carter,  and  C.  D.  HolUngsworth, 
composing  the  Advisory  Board  of  Washington  Township,  Hendricks 
County,  and  present  the  following  petition,  which  was  received  April  28. 
: 

"We,  the  undersigned  titizens,  taxpayers  and  patrons  of  School  No. 
6,  in  Washington  Township,  Hendriclfs  County,  State  of  Indiana,  re- 
spectfully petition  you  to  reconsider  the  action  of  your  Honorable  Board 
concerning  the  inspection  of  Schoolhouse  No.  0.  located  at  Avon,  in  said 
Washington  Township,  and  for  the  purpose  of  reconsidering  the  matter 
we  desire  to  call  your  attention  to  the  following  facts: 

First.  The  building  as  it  now  stands  was  originally  built  as  a  two- 
story  building  and  was  not  built  as  a  one-story  building  and  an  additional 
stoi-y  added  thereto,  as  represented  to  you. 

Second.  The  roof  of  said  building  is  a  jrood  slate  roof,  and  in  good 
condition  except  in  two  places  around  flues. 

Third.  The  floors  of  the  various  rooms  are  considerably  worn,  but 
these  conditions  could  be  remedied  by  reflooring.

Fourth.  If  tbe  plan  for  heating  the  house  Is  not  suflleient  we  believe 
that  it  could  be  made  sufficient  without  much  exi>ense. 

Fifth.  While  the  plastering  Is  cracked  in  a  few  places,  it  is  only 
where  the  leaks  above  refen-ed  to  have  damaged  it,  and  it  could  be  re- 
paired with  little  expense. 

Sixth.  The  outer  walls  of  said  building  are  apparently  in  as  good 
condition  as  they  were  when  first  constructed.  Upon  careful  examina- 
tion we  are  unable  to  find  any  serious  defects  or  cracks  in  the  outside 
walls  and  only  one  small  crack  in  the  partition  wall  between  the  two 
lower  rooms. 

Seventh.  There  has  been  some  drainage  constructed  for  the  school- 
house  lot,  and  if  it  is  not  sufficiently  drained  It  will  be  a  very  easy  matter 
to  put  in  whatever  amount  of  ditching  is  necessary  to  drain  the  same. 

Eighth.  The  schoolhouse  as  it  now  stand's  is  centrally  located,  and  a 
good  barn  and  sheds  have  been  erected  on  the  schoolhouse  lot  to  accom- 
modate the  scholars  and  patrons  of  the  school.  Said  buildings  may  not  be 
entirely  modem,  but  the  same  is  well  ventilated  and  lighted  and  if  its 
sanitiiry  conditions  can  be  improved  we  will  appreciate  any  suggestions 
you  desire  to  make. 

Ninth.  As  persons  interested  in  having  the  right  thing  done  we 
believe  that  this  schoolhouse  building  is  sufficient  to  accommodate  the 
demands  of  the  district  in  the  township  in  which  it  Is  located,  and  that  it 
can  be  put  in  the  proper  condition  at  very  little  expense.  We  also  believe 
that  It  will  be  an  unnecessary  and  useless  burden  to  the  taxpayers  of  the 
township  to  have  the  building  torjQ  down  and  a  new  one  constructed. 

We,  therefore,  ask  you  to  consider  the  above  facts  and  we  ask  you 
to  make  a  careful  investigation  as  to  the  true  situation  in  regard  to  the 
sufficiency  of  the  present  building  for  school  purposes."

SECOND  SANITARY  SURVFA'  OF  SCHOOLHOUSE. 

Upon  Monday,  April  30,  ,  State- Health  Officer  made  a  second 
sanitary  survey  of  the  said  schoolhouse  as  follows: 

Site. &#; The  schoolyard  is  about  two  acres  in  extent.  One-third  is  low 
wet  ground.  Trustee  E.  E.  Blair,  upon  being  questioned,  said  that  In 
the  winter  of    and    fully  one-third  of  the  schoolyard  was  covered 
with  water  for  a  period  oC  many  days.  At  one  time  it  was  necessaiy  to 
wade  through  water  two  Inches  deep,  with  mud  beneath,  to  get  coal  from 
the  coaihouse  immediately  in  the  rear  of  the  schoolhouse  yard. 

Mr.  J.  Langston,  Principal,  upon  being  questioned,  said  that  in  rainy 
weather  the  schoolhouse  was  very  damp;  the  walls  at  times  being  so 
moist  that  the  blackboards  could  not  be  used.  At  these  times  the  atmos- 
phere in  the  room  felt  damp. 

The  trolley  line  runs  within  42  feet  of  the  front  door  and  the  noise  of 
the  passing  cars  is  bound  to  be  detrimental  to  the  school,  as  attention  to 
books  and  recitations  will  be  disturbed  and  confusion  caused.

The  water  supply  is  trom  a  dug  well  which  is  18  feet  deep  and  which 
Is  immediately  in  the  center  of  the  trolley  track.  The  top  of  the  well 
has  been  covered  over  with  bricic  and  the  water  piped  to  a  pump  12  feet 
away.  This  well  may  become  polluted  at  any  time  through  the  dropping 
of  excreta  upon  the  track  from  passing  trolley  cars. 

Conclusion. &#; The  site  is  unsanitai-y  and  unfit  in  every  particular  for 
a  schoolhouse. 

Building. &#; The  !)uilding  is  brick  with  a  brick  foundation.  No  base- 
ment, two  stories  high,  four  rooms,  built  in  .  Cracks  were  discovered 
to  exist  on  all  sides  of  tlie  build  in  j?.  The  roof  is  slate  and  although  not 
waterproof  at  the  present  time,  could  easily  be  made  waterproof.  The 
building  is  heated  by  two  Peck- Williamson  Ideal  Heaters.  These  heaters 
are  in  the  lower  rooms  and  take  up  a  great  deal  of  space.  According  to 
the  plan  of  these  heaters  they  receive  cold  air  from  the  outside  and  after 
warming  Introduce  it  into  the  lower  and  upper  rooms. 

There  is  also  an  appliance  ])y  which  these  heaters  are  designed  to  re- 
move the  foul  air  from  near  tlie  floor  of  each  room.  According  to  the 
testimony  received  from  the  trustee,  teachers  and  pupils  these  heaters 
are  not  adequate  and  do  not  maintain  a  uniform  or  proper  temperature 
and  do  not  properly  pump  the  foul  air  away.  At  this  point  I  will  say  that 
if  the  heaters  were  satisfactory  they  would  be  the  first  ones  of  the  kind 
that  I  have  ever  known  which  were. 

A  winding  stairway,  4  feet  wide  with  23  steps,  leads  to  the  upper 
story.  The  outer  edge  of  the  stairway  is  protected  by  a  strong  banister 
and  the  entrances  to  the  two  rooms  in  the  upper  story  are  through  two 
small  doors,  one  on  each  side  of  a  narrow  vestibule.  This  constitutes  a 
firetrap,  and  if  the  house  should  catch  on  fire  while  school  Is  in  session 
many  lives  would  doubtless  be  lost  upon  this  steep,  winding,  narrow 
stairway.  If  the  schoolhouse  is  remodeled  the  stairway  must  be  so  con- 
structed as  to  lessen  to  the  fullest  degree  possible  the  danger  from  acci- 
dent by  fire. 

The  total  enrollment  during  the  last  term  was  135,  with  a  daily 
average  attendance,  of  104.  This  makes  an  average  absence  of  31,  or  22.9 
per  cent.  Much  of  this  absence  was  caused  by  sickness,  for  coughs,  colds, 
catarrhs,  headaches,  and  rheumatism  prevailed  among  the  chil<^en.  The 
children  are  reported  as  continually  complaining  of  cold  feet  in  cold 
weather. 

A  marked  unsanitary  feature  of  the  present  building  is  the  fact  that 
the  cold  damp  halls  is  the  only  plnce  for  keeping  wraps. 

Intermediate  Room.~On  the  first  floor,  30x21^x12  feet,  making  7,740 
cubic  feet  in  all.  The  room  contains  38  seats,  with  40  pupils  enrolled, 
average  daily  attendance  26.  The  cubic  space  is  sufficient.  The  floor  is 
badly  worn.  IJght  falls  over  the  right  shoulders  of  the  pupils.  Black- 
boards are  painted,  but  not  plossy.  Ceilinc:  cracked  in  several  places. 
Seats  vary  in  size  to  fit  pii]iils  of  different  aijos. 

Primary  Room.&#; On  first  floor,  on  west  side,  30x21^x12.  7,740  cubic 
feet  In  all;  30  seats,  42  pupils  enrolled,  average  daily  attendance  32. 
There  is  an  abundant  cubic  space  for  each  pupil.  Floor  much  worn. 
Blackboards  painted,  but  not  jjlossy.  Ceiling  much  cracked.  Seats  vary 
in  size  to  fit  pupils  of  different  ages.

Grammar  Room. &#; ^This  is  the  east  room,  in  second  story,  30x21^x14, 
making  9,030  cubic  feet.  The  room  contains  33  seats,  26  pupils  enrolled, 
average  attendance  24.  There  is  ample  cubic  space  for  each  pupil.  The 
light  falls  over  the  right  shoulders  of  the  pupils.  Blackboards  painted; 
but  not  glossy.  Ceiling  is  cracked.  Bloor  much  worn.  Seats  are  proper 
size. 

High  School  Room. &#; ^This  is  the  west  room  in  second  story,  30x21^x14, 
making  9,030  cubic  feet  In  all;  25  seats,  27.  pupils  enrolled,  average  attend- 
ance 22,  Floor  badly  worn.  Cracked  ceiling.  Blackboards  painted,  but 
not  flossy.    Light  falls  over  left  shoulders  of  pupils. 

History. &#; There  were  four  teachers  in  this  building  last  year.  The 
Principal,  Mr.  J.  Langston.  says  the  school  house  is  very  unsanitary.  He 
asserts  that  the  heating  and  ventilating  are  far  from  what  they  should 
be  and  that  the  almost  continued  dampness  is  a  cause  of  rheumatic 
pains.  One  lady  teacher  last  term  quit  on  account  of  bad  l^ealth  after 
three  and  one-half  months  service.  She  claimed  the  unsanitary  condi- 
tions of  the  schoolhouse  caused  her  illness.  The  teacher  who  took  her 
place  taught  five  weeks,  for  she  claimed  her  health  was  being  injured  by 
the  unsanitary  surroundings,  namely,  continued  dampness,  uneven  warm- 
ing and  poor  ventilation. 

Trustee  Blair  reports  that  none  of  the  four  teachers  will  accept  a 
position  for  the  next  year,  although  the  patrons  of  the  school  especially 
request  that  they  be  employed  again.  The  refusal  of  the  teachers  to 
tach  In  this  school  building  is  announced  by  them  to  be  because  of  the 
unsanitary  surroundings. 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; I  am  very  confident  that  the  school- 
house  at  Avon  is  unsanitary.  It  is  insufl5ciently  ventilated  and  warmed, 
and  in  two  of  the  rooms  the  light  Is  introduced  over  the  right  shoulders 
of  the  pupils.  It  is  also  unsanitary  because  of  its  dampness  and  because 
of  the  cold  damp  halls  where  wraps  are  kept.  * 

The  water  supply  is  not  now  polluted,  but  the  well  is  in  a  dangerous 
situation,  and  may  become  polluted  at  any  time,  and  this  threatens  a 
further  unsanitary  condition.  The  site  has  already  been  shown  to  be  low 
and  wet.    It  could  be  drained  and  filled  at  considerable  expense. 

I  recommend  th*it  the  former  condenmation  be  not  repealed  and  that 
It  do  stand. 

In  order  to  put  this  schoolhouse  in  good  sanitary  condition  the  grounds 
must  be  well  drained  and  filled:  a  basement  must  be  placed  under  the 
entire  building,  with  foundation  walls  built  of  stone  or  vitrified  brick  or 
other  impervious  material.  The  said  basement  must  have  a  cemented 
floor  and  an  efRcient  heating  and  ventilating  system  must  be  supplied. 
Cloakrooms  properly  warmed,  lighted  and  ventilated,  must  be  constructed. 
As  for  the  enrollment  for  next  year,  according  to  the  estimate  of  the 
trustee,  It  will  be  IW,  and  so  it  Is  plain  that  an  addition  must  be  built  to 
the  present  schoolhouse  if  it  Is  remodeled,  for  there  is  not  a  square  foot 
of  space  for  more  pupils  In  the  present  structure. 

After  due  consideration  of  the  ar^iments  of  a  paid  attorney 
and  of  citizens  of  the  township,  which  were  all  duly  weighed  and 
considered,  the  former  condemnation  of  this  schoolhonse  was 
unanimously  reaflSrmed.

REPORT  OF  SANITARY   SURVEY   OF   SCHOOLHOUSE  AT   KENT. 
REPUBLICAN  TOWNSHIP,  JEFFERSON  COUNTY. 

Made  April  17, : 

In  accordance  with  request  of  County  Superintendent  and  several 
patrons  of  the  school,  I  made  an  Inspection  of  the  schoolhouse  at  Kent, 
Jefferson  County,  Indiana. 

Site. &#; The  site  is  not  a  good  one.  It  is  not  high  and  dry  and  yet 
can  not  be  said  to  be  wet.  The  schoolyard  is  too  small  and  it  is  impos- 
sible to  add  more  ground  on  account  of  the  residence  district  adjoining. 

Building. &#; The  building  is  an  old  dilapidated  two-story  frame  struc- 
ture, stone  foundation.  The  plastering  has  fallen  off  in  many  places  and 
cracks  are  frequent.  There  ts  no  basement.  Both  rooms  are  heated  by 
stoves  and  there  are  no  ventilating  shafts.  The  windows  are  broken  and 
in  a^ramshackle  condition.  On  standing  in  the  center  of  the  room  and 
jumping  up  and  down  the  walls  of  the  building  would  shake.  One  floor 
has  been  placed  on  top  of  another  until  now  there  are  three  floors  In  the 
room.  The  rooms  are  lighted  by  three  windows  on  each  side.  The  light 
admitted  is  not  sufllclent.  Both  rooms  are  overcrowded  and  complaints 
are  frequent.  The  report  of  the  teacher  shows  that  colds,  coughs,  and 
rheumatism  are  frequent.  There  have  been  no  reports  of  diphtheria  or 
other  infectious  diseases.  The  per  cent,  of  attendance  during  last  term 
was  90. 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; My  opinion  is  that  this  schoolhouse 
is  unsanitary  and  unsafe  for  school  purposes  and  I  therefore  recommend 
its  absolute  condemnation,  and  the  condemnation  of  the  present  site. 

After  due  consideration  of  the  above  survey  the  following  order 
of  condemnation  was  unenimously  adopted : 


PROCLAMATION  OF  CONDEMNATION  OF  THE  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT 
KENT,  REPUBLICAN  TOWNSHIP,  JEFFERSON  COUNTY. 

Whereas,  It  has  been  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Indiana  State 
Board  of  Health  that  the  schoolhouse  at  Kent,  Republican  Township. 
Jefferson  County,  Indiana,  is  unsanitary  and  unfit  for  school  purposes; 
therefore  It  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  for  school  purposes 
and  shall  not  be  used  for  said  purposes  from  and  after  this  date.  May  18, 
190C,  and  in  the  event  of  the  trustee  or  any  school  teacher  or  other  person 
using  said  schoolhouse  for  school  purposes,  then  the  Secretary  of  the 
Indiana  State  Board  of  Health  shall  inform  the  Attomey-Qeneral,  who 
will  bring  prosecution  as  in  the  statutes  provided.

UPPKB  8BMINABT. 

Made  April  18»  . 

Site. &#; ^The  site  is  a  good  one,  but  area  is  not  quite  sufficient. 

Building. &#; ^The  building  iB  veiy  old,  having  been  built  over  sixty-five 
years  ago.  The  front  part  of  originally  four  rooms  has  been  added  to 
from  time  to  time  until  now  there  are  eight  rooms,  and'  their  arrange- 
ment is  such  as  to  be  a  threat  against  life  in  case  of  flre  or  special  alarm. 
The  building  is  two  stories,  walls  cracked  and  unsafe,  no  basement,  worn 
floors,  dangerous  stairways,  warmed  by  stoves,  no  ventilating  shafts,  not 
sufficiently  or  properly  lighted.  The  facilities  for  the  care  of  wraps  are 
poor  and  unsanitary,  and  repulsive  odora  from  the  privies  enter  some  of 
the  rooms  when  windows  are  open.  It  is  entirely  unnecessary  to  make  a 
detailed  description  of  each  room,  for  the  whole  building  and  every  room 
is  very  unsanitary. 

RecommendatlonsL &#; I  recommend  that  the  schoolhouse  be  condemned 
for  school  puipofles. 

After  due  consideration  of  the  above  account  of  the  Upper 
Seminary  Schoolhouse  at  Madison  the  following  order  of  con- 
demnation was  unanimously  adopted:

By  order  of  the  State  Board  of  Health. 


BEPOBT  OF  THE  INDIANA  STATE  BOARD  OF  HEALTH  TO  THE 

CONFERENCE  OF    STATE   AND    PROVINCIAL   BOARDS   OF 

HEALTH  OF  NORTH  AMERICA  WITH  THE  PUBLIC 

HEALTH  AND  MARINE  HOSPITAL  SERVICE, 

HELD  MAY  23,  .  WASHINGTON,  D.  C. 

As  the  Legislature  of  the  State  of  Indiana  has  not  been  in  session 
since  the  last  report  of  this  Board,  there  are  no  new  Health  Laws  and  no 
changes  to  record. 

The  campaign  against  tuberculosis  by  the  State  Board  has  been 
actively  carried  on.  Lectures  upon  this  subject  and  the  general  subject 
of  the  preservation  of  the  public  health  have  been  supplied  to  thirty-two 
teachers'  institutes  and  farmers'  Institutes  during  the  velnter.  Over 
25,000  health  circulars  have  been  distributed.  During  the  weelt  begin- 
ning March  5  a  tuberculosis  exhibition  was  given  in  Indianapolis  under 
the  auspices  of  the  Indianapolis  Commercial  Club  and  the  Indiana  State 
Board  of  Health.  This  exhibition  was  secured  from  the  National  Asso- 
ciation for  the  Study  and  Prevention  of  Tuberculosis.  It  was  held  in 
Tomlinson  Hall  at  Indianapolis.  Lectures  upon  different  phases  of  tuber- 
culosis were  given  every  night  and  every  afternoon.  The  Governor  and 
Lieutenant  Governor  of  the  State  took  active  part  in  the  work.  Five 
thousand  and  one  hundred  and  twenty-eight  people  visited  the  exhibition, 
and  each  visitor  was  supplied  with  a  pamphlet  treating  of  the  prevention 
of  tuberculosia. 

During -the  past  year  the  State  Board  has  condemned  twenty-eight 
schoolhouses  as  unsanitary  and  unfit  for  school  purposes,  and  twenty-five 
new  school  houses  have  been  constructed  and  three  remodeled.  The 
Indiana  law  gives  full  power  to  the  State  Board  of  Health  in  this  matter. 
The  Legislature  of    gave  to  the  State  Board  two  laboratories,  which 
together  constitute  a  State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene.    The  laboratory  con-

sists  of  two  dlYisioiis &#; chemical  and  pathological.  Each  division  has  a 
skilled  superintendent,  with  assistants.  The  work  of  the  chemical 
division  to  date  has  been  concerned  mostly  with  making  food  and  drug 
analyses,  for  the  enforcement  of  the  pure  food,  and  drug  law.  It'  has, 
however,  made  oner  500  sanitary  water  analyses  and  has  commenced  the 
sanitary  survey  of  White  River.  The  bacteriological  division  is  doing 
such  work  for  the  medical  profession  and  the  people  generally  as  pertains 
to  hygienic  bacteriology  and  pathology.  The  Hygienic  Laboratory  has 
not  yet  finished  its  first  year's  work,  but  it  is  growing  constantly,  and 
numerous  acknowledgments  from  citizens  are  received  concerning  its 
usefulness. 

It  is  now  seven  years  since  the  State  Board,  under  a  special  law,  has 
been  collecting  accurate  mortality  statistics.  The  statistics  of  births  and 
cases  of  infectious  diseases  have  not  been  heretofore  a  credit  to  the  State, 
as  the  statutes  did  not  permit  of  their  accurate  collection.  An  improve- 
ment, which  is  expected  will  be  striven  for  by  the  Board,  will  be  a  law 
to  be  presented  to  the  Legislature  of    which  will  make  it  possible  to 
collect  accurate  birth  and  Infectious  disease  records. 

The  Board  takes  pride  in  calling  attention  to  the  decreased  death  rate 
in    as  compared  with  the  preceding  five  years.  This  decrease  is  0.3. , 
The  figures  show  for    a  death  rate  of  14  per  1,000,  and  the  average 
for  the  five  preceding  years  was  14.3.  ^  This  means  a  saving  of  over  700 
lives.  There  also  appears  a  decrease  in  the  death  rate  by  the  same  com- 
parison in  tuberculosis,  typhoid  fever,  diphtheria,  scarlet  fevcsr  and  pneu- 
monia. There  is  a  slight  increase  in  cancer  and  in  deaths  from  violence. 
Smallpox  has  been  epidemic  in  many  parts  of  the  State,  but  has  been 
mild,  with  very  few  mortalities.  The  total  deaths  from  this  disease  for 
the  year    numbered  35.  It  is  thought  fair  to  conclude  that  at  least 
some  part  of  the  reduction  in  the  deaths  from  infectious  diseases  has 
been  due  to  the  activity  of  the  State  Health  Department 

Approved  and  ordered  forwarded  as  the  report  of  the  Board  for 
the  year  ending  May  1,  ,  to  the  Surgeon-General  of  the 
United  States  Public  Health  and  Marine  Hospital  Service.

QUARTERLY  REPORT  OF  THE  SECRETARY. 

The  health  of  the  State,  as  shown  by  reports  to  this  Board, 
was  generally  better  during  the  quarter  ending  June  30  than  in 
the  corresponding  month  last  year.  Smallpox  still  prevails  to  a 
slight  degree,  generally  in  mild  form.  There  were  no  smallpox

Cases  decreased  31  per  cent.,  deaths  decreased  100  per  cent, 
area  invaded  decreased  21  per  cent

ing the  quarter.  No  marked  epidemics  are  to  be  recorded.  The 
work  in  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene  has  been  going  on  as  usual, 
and  it  is  a  pleasure  to  report  that  these  departments  are  meeting 
with  increased  favor  from  the  people  and  physicians  of  the  State.

and  Kent,  JeflFerspn  County;  and  of  West  Newton  and  Valley 
Mills,  Marion  County;  of  Rockcreek  Township  and  Polk  Town- 
ship, Huntington  County,  were  formally  made  out  and  sent  to 
the  officers  having  jurisdiction  on  May  26,  .  Instructions  to 
said  officers  being  duly  given. 

VISITS  AND  INSPECTIONS. 

May  22,  Monroeville. &#; On  account  of  inspection  of  schoolhouse 
and  to  confer  with  town  authorities  in  regard  to  general  sanitary 
matters.  The  report  of  this  survey  was  presented  at  the  special 
meeting  held  June  28^  and  action  taken. 

May  28,  Zionsville. &#; On  this  date,  in  accordance  with  a  request 
from  the  school  trustees  of  Zionsville,  I  visited  the  place  and  made 
a  sanitary  sur\'^ey  of  the  schoolhouse.  I  was  met  by  the  three 
trustees  and  three  or  four  other  citizens,  and  the  schoolhouse  was 
thoroughly  inspected.  I  deem  it  unnecessary  to  here  give  all  the 
facts  secured  by  the  inspection,  because  the  trustees  immediately 
.  agreed  that  all  changes  and  improvements  recommended  should 
be  made  before  opening  the  school  in  the  fall. 

May  28,  Shelbyville. &#; I  visited  this  city  upon  request  of  the 
City  Board  of  Health,  who  wished  to  have  a  consultation  in  regard 
to  the  sanitary  affairs  of  their  city.  Upon  arrival  I  was  met 
bv  the  members  of  the  Board  and,  together  with  the  Mayor,  we 
held  a  consultation.  The  authorities  named  desired  to  draw  up 
and  have  passed,  if  possible,  a  local  ordinance  controlling  the 
meat  supply  and  in  regard  to  the  removal  of  nuisances  affecting 
the  public  health.  The  subject  was  discussed  for  fully  two  hours, 
and  then  we  rode  over  the  city  inspecting  various  imsanitary  condi- 
tions. I  think  my  visit  was  productive  of  good,  for  ordinances 
governing  the  subjects  named  above  have  since  been  passed,  and

are  being  enforced.  The  Mavor  of  Shelbyville  and  the  Board  of 
Health  passed  a  resolution  of  thanks  for  the  visit  and  help  ren- 
dered. 

May  30,  Michigan  City. &#; I  visited  Michigan  City  in  accord- 
ance with  an  invitation  from  the  Lake  County  Medical  Society 
in  order  to  read  a  paper  on  the  subject  of  "The  Early  Diagnosis 
of  Tuberculosis,"  and  to  deliver  an  illustrated  lecture  to  the  public 
4ipon  "Tuberculosis ;  Its  Prevention  and  Cure."  I  was  cordially 
received  by  the  representatives  of  the  association  named  and  by  the 
city  and  county  health  officers.  I  think  not  a  little  good  was 
accomplished  for  the  public  health  cause. 

June  22,  Richmond. &#; On  this  date  I  visited  Richmond  in  order 
to  deliver  a  lecture  at  a  called  meeting  of  citizens  upon  the  "Pre- 
vention of  Tuberculosis."  A  good  audience  gathered  in  the  High 
School  auditorium,  and  afterward  the  Wayne  County  Anti- 
Tuberculosis  Society  was  organized  with  96  charter  members.  Mr. 
Jesse  Reeves  was  elected  president. 

The  Annual  Health  Officers'  School  was  held  June  28  and  29. 
The  Claypool  Hotel,  Indianapolis,  was  made  headquarters,  and, 
with  the  exception  of  two  sessions,  the  meetings  were  held  in  the 
auditorium  of  the  hotel.  The  following  program  was  carried 
out  and,  in  addition,  a  special  lecture  was  given  by  the  Secretary 
concerning  "Recent  Improvements  in  Antitoxin."

much  good  for  the  public  health  cause. 

SANITARY  SURVEY  OF  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  SPICELAND,  HE2NRY 
COUNTY,  JUNE  29,  . 

This  building  belongs  to  a  society  known  as  "The  Spiceland  Acad- 
emy." 

Site. &#; The  site  is  satisfactory  in  every  way.  Indeed,  it  is  a  beautiful 
park  and  has  excellent  natural  drainage. 

Building. &#; It  is  an  old  frame  building  and  has  been  painted  within 
the  last  two  years.  It  has  two  stories,  four  schoolrooms,  two  halls,  three 
cloakrooms.  The  stairs  are  of  easy  ascent,  floors  throughout  the  building 
are  bad;  foundation  is  stone;  no  basement  There  is  a  dugout,  or  hole, 
beneath  the  building  in  which  are  placed  two  ordinary  wood  stoves  with 
galvanized  iron  jackets.  From  these  jackets  tin  pipes  conduct  heat  to 
the  various  rooms  above.  This  is  a  makeshift  furnace,  receiving  all  its 
air  from  the  dugout  or  hole.  It  is  therefore  true  that  the  rooms  above 
receive  ground  air  and  frequently  damp  air  which  has  been  warmed  by 
passing  over  the  surfaces  of  the  stoves.  This  heating  arrangement  is  un- 
sanitary, inadequate  and  dangerous.  In  addition  to  this  makeshift 
furnace  stoves  are  placed  in  each  room. 

The  building  is  too  much  shaded.  I^rge,  beautiful  shade  trees  spread 
their  foliage  on  every  side,  obstructing  sunshine,  light  and  air. 

Primary  Room. &#; This  room  is  33x33x13  feet,  52  seats,  enrollment  50; 
lighted  by  eight  windows;  ventilation  by  windows  alone;  no  ventilating 
ducts.  There  Is  ample  space  in  this  room  for  the  children  enrolled  and 
the  light  Is  ample,  but  the  teacher  Is  compelled  to  look  into  the  light. 
Slate  blackboards. 

Room  No.  2. &#; This  room  is  33x33x13  feet,  contains  39  seats,  enroll- 
ment 86.    It  is  lighted  by  eight  windows,,  blackboard  is  painted  on  the 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


88 

walls  and  shiny  and  chipped  in  places.  Part  of  the  blackboard  is  wood; 
the  ceiling  is  br(^en  and  has  fallen  off  in  several  places.  This  room  is 
heated  by  a  coal  stove  in  conjunction  with  the  makeshift  furnace  above 
described. 

Room  No.  3. &#; This  room  is  24x45x13;  contains  50  seats;  enrollment 
not  given.  It  is  lighted  by  eight  windows;  teacher  is  compelled  to  look 
into  the  light;  blackboards  are  painted  on  the  plaster  walls  and  shiny  and 
chipped'.  The  room  is  heated  by  a  coal  stove  in  conjunction  with  the 
makeshift  furnace  above  described.   * 

Room  No.  6. &#; This  room  is  33x24x14  feet,  and  contains  42  seats;  en- 
rollment is  46.  There  is  ample  space  and  light  for  the  pupils,  but  the 
teacher  is  compelled  to  look  into  the  light.  The  slate  blackboards  are 
satisfactory.  The  room  is  heated  by  a  wood  stove  in  conjunction  with 
the  makeshift  furnace  above  described. 

Outhouses. &#; There  are  two  outhouses  for  the  sexes,  but  both  are  old, 
dilapidated  frame  affairs  in  an  awful  condition.' 

Opinion  and  Recommendations. &#; In  addition  to  what  has  been  told 
above^  the  testimony  is  to  the  effect  that  in  cold  weather  school  is  fre- 
quently dismissed  from  this  building  or  the  children  hover  around  the 
stove  to  keep  warm.  Inquiry  dieveloped  the  fact  that  coughs,  colds, 
catarrh  and  rheumatism  prevail  every  winter  among  the  students.  All  of 
this  is  to  be  expected  from  the  survey  above  given.  It-  is  my  opinion  the 
schoolhouse  Is  unsanitary  in  every  way  and  it  Is  certainly  true  that  many 
children  have  been  injured  In  their  health  in  the  past  while  attending 
school  in  it  Indeed,  I  have  no  doubt  that  many  children  have  not  only 
suffered  from  sickness,  but  also  have  died  in  after  life  from  injuries  re- 
ceived to  their  health  In  this  damp,  poorly  lighted,  poorly  heated  and  in- 
sufficiently ventilated  old  schoolhouse. 

I  recommend  that  the  above  schoolhouse  at  Spiceland,  Indiana,  be 
condemned  for  school  purposes,  the  condemnation  to  go  into  effect  June 
1,  ,  and  that  the  Spiceland  school  authorities  be  ordered  tQ  make 
certain  sanitary  improvements  for  this  winter.  The  following  proclama- 
tion of  condemnation  is  recommended: 

PROCLAMATION   OF  CONDEMNATION  BY  THE  INDIANA  STATK 

BOARD  OF  HEALTH.  FOR  PUBLIC  SCHOOL  PURPOSES,  OF 

THE  FRAME  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  SPICELAND,  HENRY 

COUNTY,  KNOWN  AS  THE  SPICELAND  ACADEMY. 

Whereas,  It  appears  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Indiana  State  Board 
of  Health  In  regular  session  July  13,  ,  that  the  frame  schoolhouse 
belonging  to  the  Spiceland  Academy,  situated  in  the  town  of  Spiceland, 
Henry  County,  Indiana,  and  used  for  public  school  purposes  in  said  town 
of  Spiceland,  is  unsanitary,  causing  sickness  among  the  pupils,  and  is 
unfit  for  school  uses;  therefore  it  is 

Ordered,  That  said  schoolhouse  is  condemned  and  it  shall  not  be  used 
for  school  purposes  the  coming  school  term  of  lOOG  and    unless  the 
following  improvements  are  made,  to-wit: 

First  All  windows  shall  be  made  easily  movable  for  ventilation  pur- 
poses and  shall  be  provided  with  dark-colored  shades,  5o  light  may  be 
properly  tempered.

Second.  All  stoves  shall  be  provided  with  galvanized  Iron  jackets 
and  the  unsanitary  and  dangerous  Jacketed  stove  arrangement  In  the  hole 
beneath  the  building  shall  be  abolished.  It  Is  recommended  that  a  base- 
ment of  proper  size,  with  -^alla  and  cemented  floor  be  made,  supplied  with 
efficient  furnaces,  taking  air  from  the  outside. 

Third.  Decent  outhouses  shall  be  supplied  for  the  sexes  and  shall 
be  kept  clean  and  decent  with  good  walks  leading  to  them.  And  it  Is 
further 

Ordered,  That,  as  the  said  schoolhouse  at  Splceland,  Henry  County, 
Indiana,  can  not  be  made  truly  sanitary  by  repairs,  and  as  the  Improve- 
ments ordered  are  merely  temporary  makeshifts  Intended  to  obviate  the 
necessity  of  closing  the  school  at  Spiceland,  Henry  County,  Indiana,  the 
coming  winter,  therefore  the  said  frame  schoolhouse,  belonging  to  the 
Splceland  Academy,  at  Spiceland,  Henry  County,  Indiana,  Is  finally  and 
absolutely  condemned  for  public  school  purposes  and  shall  not  be  used 
for  such  purposes  after  July  1,  ;  and  any  board  of  school  trustees,  or 
any  township  trustee,  or  any  school  teacher,  or  any  other  person  who 
f^hall  violate  this  proclamation  of  condemnation  and  shall  hold  school  In 
the  said  schoolhouse  after  July  1,  ,  shall  be  prosecuted  In  the  courts 
of  the  State  by  the  Attorney-General  as  In  the  statutes  provided. 

Passed  July  13,  . 

After   discussion   the    above   proclamation   was    imanimonsly 
pasaed  as  an  order  of  the  Board. 

REPORT  OF  INSPECTION  OF  THE  SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  EMINENCE. 

By  T.  Victor  Keene. 

May  31,  . 

Approaches. &#; The  only  approach  to  the  school  building  is  a  gravel 
road.  There  are  pieces  of  an  old  wooden  sidewalk  remaining,  but  the 
gravel  road  is  the  approach  commonly  used.  This  Is  a  good  roadway, 
but  in  rainy  weather  It  is  certain  to  be  muddy.  The  schoolhouse  Is 
located  ten  feet  off  this  road.  Leading  from  the  road  to  the  entrance  of 
the  building  is  a  wooden  walk  about  six  feet  wide  and  In  fairly  good 
repair.  i 

Grounds. &#; ^The  ground  is  located  on  a  high  point,  with  excellent 
drainage.  The  entire  area  of  the  ground  is  about  one  acre.  The  build- 
ing is  located  on  the  roadside  of  the  ground  at  about  Its  center,  thus 
dividing  the  ground  into  two  play  lots &#; one  for  the  boys  and  one  for  the 
girls.  It  is  fairly  well  sodded  and  well  drained.  On  the  grounds  are  two 
closets  of  the  type  ordinarily  seen  in  country  schoolhouses,  but  both  are 
in  a  very  dilapidated  and  dirty  condition.  One  closet  Is  75  feet  from  the 
driven  well,  from  which  the  water  supply  for  the  school  Is  taken,  but  the 
drainage  from  the  closet  Is  away  from  It  instead  of  towards  It. 

Description  of  School  Building. &#; The  schoolhouse  is  a  two-story  brick 
building,  with  brick  foundation  and  no  basement.  The  building  occupies 
on  area  of  about  50x25  feet,  with  a  small  hall  in  front,  about  12x10  feet. 
The  building  is  in  a  very  dilapidated  condition;  the  walls  bulging,  and 
in  some  places  to  such  an  extent  that  it  can  be  readily  seen  with  the

naked  eye.  Efforts  have  evidently  been  made  from  time  to  time  to 
stregnthen  the  weakened  walla,  for  there  are  numerous  bolts  and  braces 
present.  The  interior  consists  of  four  rooms,  about  25x25  feet  The 
rooms  are  ail  of  the  same  dimension  and.  general  height  Bach  room  has 
five  windows,  2^x6  feet  The  windows  were  in  good  condition,  every 
window  In  the  building  being  easily  raised  and  lowered,  and  the  glass 
plates  were  all  intact.  Each  room  was  heated  by  a  stove,  which  was 
not  surrounded  by  protective  screen.  I  was  told  that  in  the  winter  time 
those  children  sitting  Aear  the  stove  suffered  because  of  tue  heat,  while 
those  far  removed  from  the  stove  were  always  complaining  of  lack  of 
heat 

The  blackboards  In  all  the  rooms  were  made  by  painting  the  plaster- 
ing with  a  heavy  black  enamel  paint  and  were  glossy  and  very  hard  on 
the  eyes.  In  many  places  they  were  cracked. and  chipped.  The  ceilings 
were  all  of  painted  wood  and  were  15  feet  high.  The  plastering  on  the 
side  walls  was  loose  and  in  many  places  had  fallen  off.  The  floors  were 
all  shaky  and  unsafe.  In  one  room,  owing  to  the  bulging  of  the  brick 
wall,  the  joists  had  slipped  out  of  the  sockets  in  the  brick  wall  and  the 
floor  in  that  part  of  the  room  sagged  three  inches.  In  places  the  bricks 
In  the  wall  were  so  loose  that  they  could  be  picked  out  with  the  hand. 

The  primary  room  was  much  too  small.  This  room  was  about  25x^ 
and  accommodated  67  pupils.  The  seats  were  old  fashioned  straight- 
back  ones,  and  owing  to  the  bad  condition  of  the  floor  many  of  the  seats 
were  not  level;  in  some  instances  one  of  the  seats  would  be  two  inches 
lower  than  the  other,  although  the  desk  in  front  would  be  perfectly  level. 
The  desks  were  old  and  were  of  different  sizes  and  models.  This  primary 
room  was  always  overcrowded,  according  to  the  statement  of  the  teacher. 
Treading  from  one  side  of  this  primary  room  was  a  cloakroom,  18x6.  The 
cloakroom  did  not  have  enough  hooks  to  accommodate  the  number  ol 
pupils  in  the  school.  It  was  necessary  for  a  child  before  entering  the 
cloakroom  to  pass  into  the  schoolroom,  as  the  only  entrance  was  by  way 
of  the  schoolroom.     This  is  a  very  bad  condition. 

Although  the  roof  had  apparently  been  shingled  very  recently  and 
was  in  good  repair,  the  statement  was  made  to  me  that  every  time  it 
rainedPor  stormed  water  leaked  into  the  room,  and  I  know  this  to  be  a 
fact,  because  it  was  raining  at  the  time  the  writer  was  inspecting  the 
school,  and  In  one  portion  of  the  rickety  floor  was  a  puddle  of  water, 
and  water  could  be  seen  dripping  down  the  wall  The  blackboards  in 
this  room  were  In  bad  condition,  being  glazed.  The  seating  capacity  of 
this  room  was  much  less  than  its  floor  area  would  seem  to  Indicate,  owing 
to  the  fact  that  the  heating  was  by  a  stove, which  caused  a  loss  of  con- 
siderable floor  space.  The  other  room  on  the  ground  floor  was  of  much 
the  same  type  as  the  one  just  described &#;had  the  same  glazed  black- 
l)oards,  the  same  number  of  windows  and  window  arrangement  the  same 
heating  plan,  the  same  variety  of  desks,  the  same  cloakroom  arrangement 
except  that  the  area  of  this  cloakroom  was  al)0ut  12x6  and  contained  a 
small  round  window  about  18  inches  in  diameter.  Only  30  pupils  are  In 
this  room,  it  beiiiff  used  for  pupils  from  eight  to  fifteen  years  of  age. 
This  room  was  in  a  worse  condition  than  the  one  previously  descril)ed, 
for  the  reason  that  the  floor  was  less  solid  and  the  brick  wall  less  safe.

It  would  have  been  a  very  simple  matter  to  have  picked  out  part  of  the 
wall  with  the  hands,  the  bricks  were  so  loose. 

Halls. &#; From  the  downstairs  hall  a  set  of  winding  steps  about  six 
feet  wide  lead  to  the  second,  story.  This  stairway' was  solid,  but  in  case 
of  fire,  if  there  would  be  any  resulting  panic,  it  is  hard  to  see  how  It 
would  be  possible  to  avoid  injury  to  pupils  on  this  stairway.  It  is,  how- 
ever, well  lighted. 

On  the  second  floor  there  are  two  rooms  of  the  same  size  as  the  ones 
just  described. 

Water  Supply. &#; The  teacher  of  the  school  informed  me  that  all  the 
drinking  water  used  was  obtained  from  a  driven  well,  which  is  said  to  be 
101  feet  deep.  There  were  no  water  buckets  or  cups  at  all  in  the  school, 
the  children  going  to  the  well  and  drinking  freshly  drawn  water.  There 
were  two  cups  on  chains  attached  to  the  pump. 

Surroundings. &#; There  are  no  houses  nearer  than  250  feet. 

Managing  Board. &#; Mr.  J.  C.  Blunk,  of  Littlepoint,  is  trustee,  and 
Mr.  H.  A.  Blunk  and  H.  K.  Lee,  of  Hall,  R.  R.  No.  2,  are  the  members  of 
the  Board  of  Education. 

Local  Feeling. &#; There  seemed  to  be  considerable  local  feeling  against 
the  use  of  the  building.  Several  citizens  told  me  that  whenever  a  storm 
came  up  they  immediately  went  to  the  schoolhoiise  and  removed  their 
children;  that  in  several  instances  the  teacher  had  taken  it  upon  himself 
to  dismiss  the  school  because  of  a  storm.  Mr.  H.  A.  Blunk,  a  member 
of  the  Board,  stated  that  it  was  his  desire  to  repair  the  building  to  such 
an  extent  as  to  make  it  safe,  which  he  admitted  was  not  the  case  at  the 
present  time,  and  to  then,  later,  if  possible,  secure  the  abandonment  of 
several  small  district  schools  by  uniting  them  into  one  large  school,  and 
then  erecting  a  modem  building  at  an  expense  of  from  $16,000  to  $20,000. 
Mr.  J.  G.  Blunk,  Trustee,  would  not  express  an  opinion  regarding  the 
situation.  He  admitted  that  the  building  was  unsafe,  but  seemed  to 
think  the  building  could  be  repaired  and  made  so.  He  stated  that  he 
personally  did  not  think  it  advisable  to  repair  the  building  for  at  least 
a  year,  for  it  could  probably  be  done  cheaper  later  than  at  the  present 
time.  However,  he  expressed  himself  as  perfectly  willing  to  do  anything 
that  seemed  desirable.    Mr.  H.  K.  Lee  did  not  exprss  any  opinion. 

This  schoolhouse  Is  the  property  of  the  township,  and  the  township 
win  be  the  body  that  will  have  to  build  a  new  building  or  repair  the  old 
one.  The  township  at  this  time  is  nearly  out  of  debt,  according  to  the 
statement  of  the  Trustee,  and  is  in  a  position  financially  to  do  anything 
which  may  be  indicated. 

I  recommend  that  this  building  be  condemned,  as  in  my  judgment  it 
is  Impractical  to  attempt  to  repair  it. 

After  discussion  this  *  school  building  at  Eminence  was  con- 
demned.

REPORT   OF   INVESTIGATION    OF   TYPHOID   FEVER   EPIDEMIC 
AT  GRBBNOASTLE. 

By  Dr.  Heleue  Knabe. 

The  undersigned  was  sent  to  Greencastlo,  Indiana,  April  10,  to  Investi- 
gate an  epidemic  of  typhoid  fever  which  has  appeared  there. 

Upon  my  arrival  I  conferred  immedidtely  with  Dr.  W.  M.  McGaughey 
and  Dr.  Hutcheson,  the  local  and  county  Health  Officers.  Fifteen  cases 
had  been  reported,  one  of  whom  had  died  April  7.  The  majority  of  the 
cases  were  children,  some  in  school,  others  below  six  years.  Only  a  few 
adults  were  siclc  at  the  time. 

There  were  a  few  cases  Itnown  to  have  a  little  fever  during  the  pre-- 
ceding  weelis,  but  none  of  them  had  been  diagnosed  typhoid  fever.  The 
physicians  in  whose  practice  the  cases  occurred  gave  me  their  addresses 
and  I  obtained  specimens  of  blood  from  all  of  them.  I  was  also  fortunate 
in  meeting  four  persons  who  had  not  been  under  a  physician's  care  at 
all,  but  in  every  case  enough  of  a  history  could  be  obtained  to  suspect 
typhoid  fever,  and  here  also  I  toolt  blood  for  WidaJ  tests.  Other  cases 
had  been  diagnosed  lagrippe,  nervousness,  remittent  fever,  etc. 

Of  the  twenty-two  specimens  of  blood  to  which  I  applied  the  Widal 
tjest  every  one  showed  a  pronounced  reaction,  thus  clearly  demonstrating 
that  the  infection  is  now  widespread  in  Greencastle. 

The  universal  belief  among  the  citizens  of  Greencastle  was  that  the 
infection  had  come  through  mills  obtained  from  the  Forrest  Hill  Dairy, 
owned  by  Mr.  J.  W.  Lemmlnlc.  Two  sons  oi  this  family  were  sicit  for  a 
short  time  in  March,  though  not  diagnosed  typhoid  fever,  and  as  most 
of  the  patients  had  been  taking  mills  from  this  dairy  they  suspected  it 
first  of  all.  Careful  consideration  of  the  circumstances,  however,  seems 
to  show  that  a  cause  other  than  milk  was  at  work  here,  for  some  of  the 
families  in  which  typhoid  fever  has  appeared  use  no  milk;  others  do  not 
get  it  from  .the  Forrest  Hill  Dairy. 

An  investigation  of  the  sanitary  conditions  in  Greencastle  reveals  de- 
fects enough  to  account  for  the  spread  of  typhoid  fever,  or  any  other  in- 
fectious disease.  The  town  has  about  5,000  inhabitants  and  its  location 
is  near  the  river.  Part  of  the  streets  are  macadam  and  reasonably  dry; 
others  are  not'  improved  and  in  very  bad  condition. 

Greencastle  has  no  sewer  and  many  dwellings  are  provided  with 
surface  privies,  which  do  not  often  require  cleaning,  since  after  a  rain 
the  soft  earth  absOTbs  nearly  all  of  their  contents;  at  the  same  time  water 
appears  m  many  a  cellar  in  town.  Not  infrequently  I  found  people  who 
stated  that  their  cellars  were  damp  during  the  greater  part  of  the  year. 

The  cleaning  of  streets  is  not  given  sufticient  attention.  Many  of 
the  alleys  are  in  a  very  bad  condition,  for  lustance,  the  alley  on  Vine 
street,  behind  W.  L.  Deuman's  property,  Is  a  regular  dumping  ground. 
Center  street,  bordering  the  campus  of  De  Pauw  University,  is  strewn 
with  all  kinds  of  filth.  On  Water  street,  veiy  near  to  the  point  where 
it  crosses  Washington  street,  I  saw  a  large  accumulation  of  waste  from 
a  grocefy  store,  decaying  vegetables,  etc.  Besides  those  places  mentioned 
there  are  many  others  equally  as  bad. 

Very  unsanitary  is  a  contrivance  which  I  now  wish  to  describe.    A

part  of  the  hotels  and  residences  are  supplied  with  cesspools,  from  whl(fh 
ft  line  of  tiling  is  laid,  eventually  draining  at  some  point  in  an  open  gutter 
on  the  streets.  These  drains  in  warm  weather  give  rise  to  a  condition 
that  l8  no  credit  to  any  town.  The  day  of  my  visit  to  these  places  was 
cool  and  damp,  and  the  heavy  rain  had  washed  away  most  of  the  con- 
tents of  these  cesspools,  still  there  hovered  the  strong  odor  of  urine  about 
the  outlets  of  the  drains.  Residents  of  the  place  declared  it  was  not  at 
all  uncommon  during  the  summer,  after  a  rain  sufficient  to  overflow  the 
cesspools,  to  find  their  contents  lying  In  the  gutter,  covered  with  flies  and 
emitting  a  most  unpleasant  odor. 

One  place  standing  in  sore  need  of  betterment  is  in  the  rear  of 
Florence  Hall,  which  is  used  for  a  boarding  house  for  De  Pauw  students. 
The  untidy  back  porch,  with  its  dirty  uncovered  barrel,  half  filled  with 
waste  from  the  kitchen;  the  outhouse  a  short  distance  away,  which  drains 
its  foul  contents  into  a  shallow  ravine  after  a  rainfall,  where  a  tiny 
stream  of  water  washes  away  some  of  the  filth,  to  distribute  it  where 
the  ravine  extends  in  the  immediate  vicinity  of  dwellings;  these  are  con- 
ditions which,  if  not  changed  very  soon,  will  surely  give  trouble  in  the 
coming  warm  season.  There  are  also  several  cesspools  in  this  location. 
One  of  them  is  leaky,  the  seex>age  appearing  on  the  slope  at  the  side  of 
the  ravine;  the  other  two  were  filled  to  the  brim,  when  I  saw  the  place,  one 
of  them  having  run  over  ihe  week  before  on  account  of  heavy  rains. 

An  old  well  is  also  to  be  found  In  this  vicinity.  The  brick  with 
which  it  is  built  over  is  crumbling  away,  and  as  it  is  on  the  level  with 
the  grass,  with  no  railing  there  to  hinder  any  one  from  walking  right 
into  it,  there  is  reason  to  suppose  that  some  one  may  come  to  his  deatli 
by  drowning.    The  well  should  at  least  be  fenced  in. 

Water  Supplies. &#; Qreencastle  receives  a  large  part  of  its  water  from 

water  works.    The  filters  are  laid  in  the  bed  of Creek.    A  large 

open  well  receives  the  filtered  water.  From  here  it  is  pumped  into  a 
standpipe  over  thirty  feet  high,  and  thence  passes  into  the  general  pipe 
system.  The  water  has  been  of  good  quality  until  a  year  ago,  when  it 
began  to  be  muddy  after  heavy  rains.  Nothing  was  done,  however,  to 
get  at  the  root  of  the  trouble.  Since  the  present  epidemic  of  typhoid  fever 
appeared  the  Health  Officer  sent  some  of  the  water  to  the  State  Labora- 
tory and  the  examination  showed  the  water  to  be  badly  polluted. 

When  I  visited  the  water  works  I  noticed  that  there  was  an  intake 
from  the  creek.  I  suggested  that  there  might  be  the  source  of  the  trouble. 
The  engineer  stated  that  it  was  sealed,  however,  but  when  the  water  in 
the  creek  was  high  he  could  see  the  muddy  water  come  in  from  the  filter, 
an  evidence  that  the  filter  was  damaged. 

At  the  present  time  I  am  certain  of  37  cases,  four  of  which  may  be 
accounted  for  by  diirect  contact,  because  they  developed  subsequently  to 
nursing  a  patient  in  their  house.  In  eleven  instances  two  cases  occurred 
hi  the  same  family,  but  seven  of  them  came  so  near  together  that  I  could 
not  positively  determine  whether  or  not  one  of  the  patients  had  been  in- 
fected from  the  other.  I  am  Inclined  to  believe  the  infection  in  the  ma- 
.  jority  of  these  cases  occurred  at  the  same  time.  In  one  family  three 
cases  occurred  at  the  same  time.  Two  of  the  little  patients  are  in  school; 
the  oldest  sister,  age  sixteen,  at  home.    TheseT  three  cases  were  diagnosed

afi  remittent,  fever.  I  did  not  have  a  chance  to  get  blood  from  the  young^er 
children,  and  they  are  not  included  in  the  above  number.  If  the  state- 
ment of  the  attending  physician &#; "all  three  had  the  same  trouble" &#; ^is  to 
be  taken  as  correct,  the  number  of  cases  rises  to  thirty-nine,  for  the  blood 
of  the  older  sister  gave  a  positive  Widal  reaction.  Three  other  cases  of 
whom  I  was  unable  to  get  any  blood  on  account  of  temporary  absence 
were  children,  two  of  whom  had  been  with  their  mother  in  Muncie  four 
or  five  weeks  ago  and  when  there  a  short  time  became  sick.  The  diag- 
nosis was  'indigestion."  Now  the  mother  is  in  bed  with  fever  and  her 
blood  shows  positive  Widal  reaction.  (Mrs.  Maxwell.)  The  third  case  is 
Mrs.  Detro's  little  boy.  She  stated  that  he  had  been  sickly  and  is  now 
very  anemic.  Mrs.  Detro  has  been  under  a  physician's  care  for  **nervous- 
ness."    Her  blood  shows  also  a  typhoid  reaction. 

Of  thirty-nine  cases  (omitting  the  three  last  mentioned)  twenty-four 
have  the  city  water  as  their  house  supply  and  seven  drink  it  every  day  in 
school.  Four  cases,  including  the  deceased,  had  their  places  of  employ- 
ment down  town,  and  probably  used  the  city  water  there.  In  six  of  the 
houses  where  typhoid  fever  is  now  present  the  water  supply  is  from  a 
dug  well;  in  three  cases  cistern  water  is  used. 

The  first  case  which  appeared  this  winter  was  that  of  a  teamster, 
Mr.  Gladwell,  and  he  stated  that  he  had  been  drinking  almost  anywhere 
around  the  country,  from  little  ditches,  etc.,  so  that  there  is  a  probability 
of  his  having  been  infected  outside  of  the  city.  The  other  case,  Irving 
Brown,  age  seven,  at  watercress  which  he  and  several  boy  friends  were 
picking  at  a  branch  outside  of  the  city.  This  branch  of  water  is  known 
to  receive  sewage,  and  the  child  fell  ill  on  the  fourteenth  day  after  eating 
the  cress. 

Taking  it  altogether,  the  water  and  general  unsanitary  conditions 
seem  to  me  the  most  potent  factors  causing  this  epidemic.

INSPECTION  OF  DAIRIES  AT   GREENCASTLB. 

In  connection  with  the  investigation  of  the  epidemic  of  typhoid  fever 
at  Greencastle  I  inspected  the  following  dairies: 

De  Pauw  farm  dairy,  owned  by  Mr.  Harry  Nugent  and  Dr.  Bence. 
This  dairy  does  not  supply  many  customers;  ten  milk  cows  are  kept.  The 
stable  is  not  very  well  arranged,  providing  also  shelter  for  the  horses. 
The  floor  on  which  the  cows  stand  is  covered  with  boards;  walls  and  ceil- 
ings are  not  as  clean  as  ihey  ought  to  be.  The  stable  also  held  many 
chickens.  The  water  is  used  for  washing  the  cans  and  is  taken  from  a 
spring.  This  spring  is  covered  by  a  small  stone  house.  Bottles  and  milk 
cans  are  kept  outside.

Dairy  of  Mr.  Sldener:  Thirty-flve  cows.  The  barn  floor  is  partly 
wood  and  partly  clay,  which  was  very  soft  on  the  day  of  my  visit  I  hap- 
pened to  get  there  during  milking  time.  Neither  the  man  who  did  the 
milking  nor  the  cows  did  look  very  clean.  The  milk  can  was  kept  In  the 
stable  during  milking  time.  Harness  and  other  utensils  were  hanging  in 
the  same  barn.  One  cow  was  sick,  probably  hurt,  having  homed  itself  a 
week  before  with  other  cows. 

Dairy  belonging  to  Mr.  Paul  Tucker:  Twenty-five  cows.  Barnyard 
very  idirty.  The  dung  from  the  stables  had  not  been  hauled  away  for 
several  weeks  and  was  heaped  up  around  the  barn  so  that  It  was  trouble* 
some  to  get  inside  without  wading  through  it.  The  cows  did  not  look 
very  clean,  neither  did  the  inside  of  the  stable.  The  milk  is  taken  into 
the  house,  down  a  small,  dingy  stairway  into  a  kitchen  in  the  basement. 
There  it  is  strained  and  filled  into  cans  or  bottles.  This  kitchen  was 
clean  when  I  saw  the  place.  The  trough  around  the  cistern  pump  con- 
tained chloride  of  lime.  Filtered  cistern  water  is  used  for  cleaning  and 
scalding  cans,  etc. 

Forest  Hill  dairy,  owned  by  J.  W.  Lemmink:  On  account  of  the 
suspicion  which  people  had  regarding  the  spread  of  typhoid  fever  from 
this  place  I  made  a  thorough  examination  of  the  whole  place.  The  dairy 
is  several  miles  away  from  town.  In  the  open  country,  with  buildings 
situated  on  a  little  hill.  A  large  barn  accommodates  the  cows.  About 
one-quarter  is  utilized  for  the  horses,  but  they  are  far  removed  from  the 
cows,  and  between  them  is  a  high  board  wall.  The  fioor  is  made  of  clay 
and  is  dry  and  hard.  A  wooden  gutter  behind  the  cows  is  kept  very 
clean,  and  everything  is  in  good  condition.  I  saw  this  dairy  at  milking 
time,  and  dare  say  it  was  done  In  the  cleanest  way  in  which  I  have  yet 
observed.  The  air  In  the  stable,  both  doors  of  which  were  open,  was 
very  good,  and  the  cows  were  very  clean,  Mrs.  Lemmink,  who  did  the 
milking,  used  a  two-quart  cup  to  receive  the  milk.  When  half  filled  this 
was  emptied  into  a  bucket  which  stood  covered  in  the  barn  door.  The 
straining  was  done  on  the  side  porch,  where  a  table,  bottle  rack,  etc., 
were  provided  for  this  purpose.  Cans,  strainer,  etc.,  as  well  as  the  table 
and  small  tubs  in  which  the  bottles  were  scalded,  were  scrupulously 
clean.  Some  of  the  bottles  were  kept  in  the  bottle  rack,  mouth  down- 
ward, others  in  boxes  provided  with  oilcloth  cover,  and  all  very  clean. 

The  milk  is  rich  and  of  good  quality,  as  shown  by  the  examination 
made  In  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  which  showed  5  per  cent,  fat  The 
house  in  which  Mr.  Lemmink  and  his  family  live  is  old,  but  the  rooms  are 
kept  clean  and  tidy.  A  privy  vault  at  the  side  of  the  house  opposite  from 
the  porch  where  the  milk  is  handled  is  not  in  good  condition,  and  Mr. 
Lemmink  stated  that  he  was  preparing  to  remove  it  and  make  a  new 
one  further  away.  Its  drainage  does  not  come  hear  the  house,  nor  could 
it  go  Into  the  spring  from  which  the  water  Is  used.  This  spring  is  quite 
a  distance  from  the  house  and  also  from  the  barn,  but  some  seepage  from 
the  barnyard  is  evidently  getting  into  it,  as  shown  by  analysis  of  the 
water  which  was  made  a  short  time  ago  In  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene. 
When  I  saw  the  place  the  barnyard  was  clean  and  dry.  Mr.  Lemmink 
stated  that  the  cows  were  kept  In  the*  barn  only  at  milking  time,  except 
in  very  cold  winter.    One  case  of  typhoid  fever  occurred  in  this  house

two  years  ago;  other  cases  have  been  found  in  town  more  or  less  at  all 
times.  There  were  also  several  cases  in  town  before  the  two  children, 
Charles  and  Lawrence,  were  sick  this  winter.  Both  children  had  no 
symptoms  to  make  any  one  suspect  typhoid  fever,  and  as  Dr.  Hutcheson, 
who  is  the  family  physician,  verified  the  statements  made  by  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Lemmlnk  In  every  particular  I  have  no  doubt  that  they  were  true. 
Dr.  Hutcheson's  books  showed  that  he  was  called  only  once,  because  the 
children  were  sick  with  acute  symptoms,  having  had  a  very  hearty  meal 
the  day  before,  and  twice  after  that  time  some  members  of  the  family 
came  to  the  doctor's  office  for  medicine. 

There  is,  of  course,  no  doubt  that  both  of  the  children  had  a  mild 
case  of  typhoid  fever,  because  their  blood  gave  a  positive  reaction  to  the 
Widal  test 

The  foregoing  investigations  I  have  carried  out  to  the  best  of  my 
ability,  taking  great  care  not  to  be  biased  by  any  opinion  advanced  by 
persons  with  whom  I  came  in  contact

TUBERCULOSIS   MEETING   AT   SOUTH   BEND. 

On  July  25,  upon  invitation  of  the  St.  Joseph  Medical  Society 
and  the  health  authorities  of  South  Bend,  I  visited  that  place, 
carrying  with  me  the  tuberculosis  exhibit  of  the  Board.  Upon 
arrival  said  exhibit  was  promptly  put  into  position,  and  at 
2  o^clock  a  lecture  upon  the  'Prevention  of  Disease"  was  delivered 
to  an  audience  of  about  five  hundred  persons.  In  the  evening 
the  exhibit  was  visited  by  one  thousand  persons,  and  when  gath- 
ered in  the  audience  chamber  I  made  an  illustrated  address  upon 
the  "Cure  of  Tuberculosis  in  the  Incipient  Stage.''  The  following 
day,  July  26,  another  audience  inspected  the  exhibit  and  further 
addiesses  were  made.  The  South  Bend  daily  papers  published 
full  accounts  of  the  meeting  and  the  addresses,  and  gave  editorials 
upon  the  subject.  It  is  believed  that  this  visit  was  attended  with 
good  results,  and  was  many  times  worth  the  work  and  expense 
given  to  it 

SCHOOLHOUSE  AT  KKNNARD. 

The  school  building  at  Kennard  was  condemned  by  the  State 
Board  of  Health  last  fall,  and  the  authorities  were  in  dispute  as  to 
the  location  of  the  new  building.  The  controversy  ran  high,  and 
at  last  all  'concerned  agreed  to  abide  by  the  decision  of  the 
Secretary.  Accordingly  I  visited  the  place,  met  the  committees  of 
citizens,  inspected  the  various  proposed  sites,  and  made  my  recom- 
mendations. I  have  since  learned  that  a  second  compromise  was 
effected,  and  the  old  site  was  adopted. 

PETERSBURG  SCHOOLnOUSE. 

The  schoolhouse  at  Petersburg  is  brick,  a  very  old  structure,  and 
unsanitary  in  every  respect.  The  })coplo  of  the  city  know  this  to 
be  true.  Several  letters  were  received  from  citizens  asking  the 
State  Board  of  Health  to  make  inspection  of  the  building.  All 
of  these  represented  that  the  majority  of  the  patrons  were  afraid 
of  the  present  schoolhouse  because  of  its  clacked  walls  and  general 
unsafe  condition,  and  also  because  it  was  unsanitary.  They  were 
told  to  petition  the  State  Board  of  Health  in  regard  to  the  build- 
ing to  show  that  the  people  were  in  favor  of  action.  Accordingly 
the  following  petitions  were  received.  The  first  one  was  dated 
May  11,  the  second  August  t3,  accompanied  by  a  letter  signed 
by  the  Treasurer  and  Secretary  of  the  School  Board :

PETITION. 

Petersburg,  May  11,  IIKKJ. 
State  Board  of  Health: 

Gentlemen &#; We,  the  undersigned  patrons  of  the  Petersburg  public 
school,  do  hereby  petition  you  to  visit  this  place  and  make  an  examina- 
tion of  the  school  buildings  here.  In  our  judgment  the  building  is  unsafe 
and  unsanitary  and  should  be  condemned. 

DR.  T.  W.  BASINGER, 
Ex-Secy.  County  Board  of  H.,  and  69  others. 

Petersburg,  August  7,  . 

We  are  enclosing  you  a  certified  copy  of  the  petition  gotten  up  here 
in  the  last  few  days  relative  to  the  building  of  a  new  scboalhouse.  Mr. 
Nichols,  president  of  th6  School  Board,  is  out  of  town  and  will  not  be 
home  for  ten  days.  His  absence  accounts  for  his  not  joining  us  in  the 
affidavit  herewith  attached. 

The  original  petition  is  kept  here  to  file  with  the  clerk  of  the  town, 
to  which  officer  you  are  refeiTed  if  you  deem  it  advisable  for  further  in- 
formation. The  petition  is  to  be  brought  before  the  Town  Board  for  the 
purpose  of  securing  a  permit  in  accordance  with  the  law  to  proceed  to  the 
erection  of  a  school  building. 

In  the  last  town  election  there  were  489  votes  polled.  Since  then, 
owing  to  the  closing  down  of  the  glass  factory,  about  eighty  voters  have 
gone  from  here,  leaving  at  this  time  about  409  voters  in  the  corporation. 
As  you  will  observe,  there  are  851  signatures  to  the  petition,  making 
almost  86  per  cent  of  the  present  voting  population  of  the  town.  Some 
voters  are  out  of  town  and  were  not  canvassed.  In  all  there  are  not  more 
than  twelve  or  fifteen  voters  in  the  corporation  opposed  to  the  plans  of  the 
School  Board,  and  they  are  under  tlie  direct  influence  of  interested  parties. 

J.  R.  CHEW,  Treasurer. 

H.  H.  TISLOW,  Secretary. 

PETITION. 

Petersburg,  August  3,  . 
We,  the  undersigned  taxpayers  and  patrons  of  the  Petersburg,  In- 
diana, public  schools,  knowing  the  unsanitary  and  dangerous  condition  of 
the  public  school  buildings  in  said  town,  and  further  knowing  the  said 
school  buildings  are  inadequate  to  properly  accommodate  the  large  num- 
ber of  school  children  in  said  town,  hereby  ask  that  a  new  and  com- 
modious school  building  be  erected  at  the  earliest  possible  date. 

I.  H.  LAMAR,  M.  D.,  and  350  others. 

On  account  of  these  petitions  tlie  Secretary  visited  Petersburg 
on  July  31.  A  delci^ation  of  citizens,  headed  by  the  members  of 
the  School  Board  just  named,  and  accompanied  by  the  entire 
to^\Ti  board,  accompanied  the  Secretary  to  the  building.  A  very 
casual  inspection  shows  it  to  be  unsafe,  for  the  walls  on  every  side

are  cracked.  It  is  braced  with  iron  rods  running  through  the 
building  from  all  four  directions.  The  floors  are  in  bad  repair, 
every  room  improperly  lighted,  insufficiently  ventilated,  and  in- 
sufficiently warmed.  The  stairway  leading  to  the  upper  story  is 
boxed  part  of  the  way,  narrow  and  steep.  It  is  imnecessary  to 
here  detail  the  size  of  the  rooms  with  the  lighting  facilities,  be- 
cause the  whole  building  is  so  bad  from  every  point  of  view. 
There  are  closets  for  the  sexes  in  the  basement  which  are  hardly 
possible.  They  have  cemented  floors,  but  are  dimly  lighted  by 
windows  which  enter  just  above  the  ground  level.  The  entrances 
to  said  closets  are  from  the  rear  of  the  building,  and  the  children 
must  walk  from  the  front  aroimd  the  building  to  use  them.  As 
said  above,  every  feature  of  this  building  is  unsanitary,  and  it  is 
also  imsafe.  I,  therefore,  urgently  recommend  its  absolute  con- 
demnation for  school  purposes.  The  building  is  occupied  at  this 
time,  has  had  some  repairs  and  further  bracing,  and  it  perhaps 
would  be  best  not  to  close  the  building,  but  to  let  it  be  used  this 
winter,  and  to  pass  an  order  of  condemnation  to  take  effect  June 
1,  .  It  is  to  be  regretted  that  the  petition  could  not  be 
attended  to  sooner.  Had  it  been  possible  for  the  Secretary  to 
make  the  survey  soon  after  the  first  petition  was  received,  which 
was  May  11,  the  condemnation  might  have  been  early  enough 
to  secure  a  new  building  for  this  winter. 

KOKOMO. 

On  August  6  I  visited  Kokomo  to  meet  the  County  Superin- 
tendent and  Trustees  of  the  county  to  consider  the  subject  of 
school  hygiene.  Two  hours  work  was  consumed  in  discussing 
what  could  be  done  to  better  the  sanitary  surroundings  of  the 
school  children  in  the  country  schools  of  Howard  Coimty.  The' 
fact  in  r^ard  to  the  prevalence  of  imperfect  vision  in  school 
children  was  presented,  and  a  sample  of  Snellen's  vision  chart  was 
shown.  The  Trustees  were  urged  to  purchase  a  supply  of  these 
charts,  and  to^  direct  their  teachers  to  watch  the  children  closely 
and  examine  the  eyes  of  all  who  wrinkled  their  foreheads  when 
looking  at  their  books  and  who  would  be  discovered  glancing  at 
their  work  at  various  angles.  They  were  urged  also  to  require 
that  the  teachers  examine  the  ears  of  children  who  seemed  dull

and  would  ask  to  have  questions  repeated.  The  Trustees  were 
unanimous  that  they  would  attend  to  this.  Further  recommenda- 
tions were  given  in  regard  to  ventilation  and  lighting  the  school- 
rooms, also  in  regard  to  keeping  them  clean.  Prof.  E.  E.  Roby, 
County  Superintendent,  formulated  the  recommendations  in  writ- 
ing, and  they  were  agreed  to  by  all  present.  I  am  confident  this 
conference  with  the  Trustees  of  Howard  County  was  attended 
with  excellent  results. 

Meeting  of  County  Commissioners. &#; Finding  that  the  County 
Commissioners  were  *  in  session,  I  called  upon  them  with  the 
secretary.  Dr.  E.  H.  Smith.  In  a  general  conversation  upon  the 
care  of  the  public  health  the  facts  of  the  relations  of  the  County 
Board  to  the  work  were  fully  brought  out.  All  three  of  the  Com- 
missioners were  deeply  interested,  and  a  formal  meeting  of  the 
County  Board  of  Health  was  called.  An  order  was  issued  au- 
thorizing the  County  Officer  to  have  circulars  printed  upon  the 
prevention  of  various  diseases  and  circulated  throughout  the 
county.  An  order  was  also  passed  that  the  Secretary  should  also 
employ  a  deputy  when  necessary  for  the  disinfection  of  houses 
which  had  been  occupied  by  cases  of  infectious  diseases.  It  is 
certainly  true  that  this  conference  with  the  County  Health  Board 
resulted  in  much  good. 

GREENSBURG. 

On  account  of  an  invitation  from  the  Decatur  County  Medical 
Society  and  tlie  County  Superintendent  of  Schools,  I  visited 
Greensburg  August  8.  Dr.  Knabe  accompanied  me  to  aid  in  the 
management  and  presentation  of  the  tuberculosis  exhibit  We 
had  two  meetings,  one  in  the  afternoon  and  one  in  the  evening. 
The  tuberculosis  exhibit  was  placed  in  position  in  one  of  the 
large  rooms  of  the  high  school  building,  and  during  the  day  was 
visited  by  several  hundred  citizens  and  all  of  the  teachers,  num- 
bering 210.  A  lecture  upon  school  hygiene  was  delivered  before 
the  teachers  in  the  afternoon;  and  in  the  evening,  the  hall  being 
crowded  and  overflowing,  an  illustrated  lecture  upon  tuberculosis 
was  given.  A  vote  of  thanks  was  offered  for  the  instructions,  and 
also  a  vote  of  confidence  and  approval  of  the  general  work  of 
the  State  Board  of  Health.

DECATUR. 

I  visited  Decatur  August  20  in  answer  to  an  invitation  of  the 
citizens  of  the  city  and  the  connty  superintendent.  The  tuber- 
culosis exhibit  .was  taken  along  and  placed  in  position  in  the 
lecture  room  of  a  churoh  where  the  teachers'  meetings  were  held. 
This  exhibit  was  visited  by  several  hundred  citizens  and  all  of 
the  teachers.  In  the  afternoon  a  lecture  upon  school  hygiene  was 
delivered  before  the  institute,  and  in  the  evening  a  popular  illus- 
trated lecture  upon  the  prevention  and  cure  of  tuberculosis.  The 
audiences  in  both  instances  were  large.  In  the  evening  all  who 
applied  could  not  be  admitted.  As  in  former  instances  of  this 
kind,  resolutions  of  thanks  and  confidence  and  approval  of  the 
work  of  the  State  Board  of  TTcalth  were  passed. 

MEROM. 

On  August  22  I  visited  Merom,  Sullivan  County,  to  lecture 
upon  disease  prevention  and  the  public  health  at  the  Merom 
Chautauqua.-  This  Chautauqua  Assembly  has  become  quite  cele- 
brated. The  grounds  are  situated  on  the  east  bank  of  the  Wabash 
River,  overlooking  vast  areas  of  beautiful  country,  the  Wabash 
being  visible  in  its  windings  for  many  miles.  It  is  a  beauti- 
ful spot,  and  a  fit  place  in  which  to  study  the  questions  which  are 
usually  presented  at  assemblies  of  this  kind.  The  audience  num- 
bered about  fifteen  hundred,  and  close  attention  was  given  to  the 
teachin<G;s  which  were  offered. 

NEW  CASTLE. 

August  30  I  visited  New  Castle  to  address  the  annual  Teacliers' 
Institute  upon  the  subject  of  school  hygiene  and  the  general  pre- 
vention of  disease.  The  conference  was  held  in  thecourt  room  of 
the  county  court  house.  Two  hundred  and  fifteen  teachers  were 
present,  and  probably  one  hundred  citizens.  The  address,  which 
was  along  the  usual  lines,  was  well  received,  and  a  warm  resolution 
of  thanks  wsfs  passed. 

NOBLESyiLLE. 

September  5  I  went  to  Noblesville  to  lecture  upon  school 
hygiene  aiid  the  general  prevention  of  disease  before  the  County 
Teachers'  Institute.     Over  three  hundred  teachers  were  present 


Digitized  by  VjQOQ IC 


104 

and  a  number  of  citizens.  This  is  the  third  time  the  Secretarj 
has  been  invited  to  Noblesville,  and  he  thinks  this  indicates  that 
the  people  of  that  county  have  become  deeply  interested  in  dis- 
ease prevention  work.  Much  of  this  interest  is  imdoubtedly  due  to 
the  work  of  Dr.  F.  A.  Tucker,  who  has  persistently  made  known 
to  the  public  the  advantages  to  be  derived  from  the  ounce  of 
prevention.  Close  attention  was  given  to  the  lecture,  and  a  resolu- 
tion of  thanks  was  passed. 

The  Britton  Schoolhouse. &#; This  schoolhomse  is  in  Delaware 
Township,  Hamilton  County.  I  visited  this  schoolhouse  to  make 
a  survey  of  the  same  in  company  with  Dr.  F.  A.  Tucker,  Septem- 
ber 5. 

Sita &#; The  site  is  satisfactory,  having  good  natural  drainage 
but  no  artificial  drainage,  which  hardly  seems  necessary. 

Building. &#; The  building  is  an  old  dilapidated  frame,  stone 
foundation,  no  basement,  and  only  one  room.  This  room  is 
30  X  24  feet.  It  contains  48  desks  and  has  an  enrollment  of  17. 
The  floor  is  bad ;  ceiling  is  broken  in  places,  and  has  fallen  off ; 
no  cloalcroom ;  heated  by  stoves ;  ventilation  only  by  windows  and 
doors;  roof  is  in  bad  condition.  Windows  are  six  in  number, 
three  on  each  side,  and  furnigh  sufficient  light,  but  are  objection- 
able on  account  of  cross-lights.  The  chimney  is  cracked  and  rests 
upon  the  joists  which  support  ceiling.  The  chimney  is  unsafe. 
Further  evidence  in  dilapidation  lies  in  the  fact  that  the  paper  is 
coming  off. 

Outhouses. &#; These  are  separate  for  the  sexes,  but  dilapidated, 
and  in  places  in  awful  condition. 

Conclusion. &#; This  schoolhouse  is  unfit  for  school  purposes,  and 
I  recommend  that  it  be  condemned. 

MONTI  CELLO. 

September  7  I  went  to  Monticello  to  lecture  before  the  County 
Teachers'  Institute.  The  meeting  was  held  in  the  audience  room 
of  the  high  school  building.  Early  in  the  spring  the  old  high 
school  building  at  Monticello  was  abandoned,  thus  necessitating 
the  construction  of  a  new  one.  Tlie  new  building  is  beautiful, 
well  built,  and  every  attention  has  been  given  to  sanitary  features. 
The  audience  numbered  over  three  hundred,  and  the  usual  lecture 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


105 

was  received  with  attention  and  respect,  and  the  usual  vote  of 
thanks  was  passed,  containing  a  clause  expressing  confidence  in 
the  work  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  and  approval  of  what  it 
had  done. 

OTTAWA,  ILL. 

I  visited  Ottawa,  111.,  September  16,  in  order  to  become 
acquainted  with  the  work  being  carried  on  there  in  the  cure  of 
tuberculosis  in  the  Ottawa  Tent  Colony.  This  institution  was 
founded  three  years  ago  by  the  Illinois  State  Medical  Society  in 
order  to  make  plain  to  the  people  that  incipient  tuberculosis  was 
curable  in  the  climate  of  this  region.  The  institution  started 
with  three  patients,  an  ordinary  frame  dwelling  for  an  adminis- 
tration building  and  an  old  frame  structure  for  surgical  and 
general  purposes.  In  three  years  the  institution  has  grown  until 
there  is  now  foimd  upon  this  beautiful  site  a  large  administra- 
tion building,  which  cost  thirty  thousand  dollars,  and  seventy-five 
tents,  all  arranged  in  streets.  The  site  of  the  colony  is  on  the 
high  western  banks  of  the  Illinois  River.  The  view  from  the 
administration  porches  is  very  beautiful.  The  winding  river  and 
the  fertile  bottoms  to  the  north  and  woods  and  meadows  to  the 
south.  The  groimds  are  laid  out  A^^th  curved  paths  and  flower- 
beds, and  the  shrubbery  has  been  tastefully  placed.  Dr.  J.  W. 
Pettit  is  the  presiding  genius,  and  is  aided  by  Dr.  Butterfield. 
There  were  fifty-seven  patients  at  the  time  of  my  visit,  and  five 
nurses.  The  treatment  of  the  patients  is  the  well  known  ou^doo^ 
life,  with  an  abimdance  of  plain,  well  cooked  food  given  at 
regular  intervals  and  under  rational  directions. 

The  bathhouse,  which  is  a  separate  building,  furnishes  every 
facility  required  in  such  a  building.  Life  is  entirely  out  of  doors, 
the  tents  simply  sheltering  the  patients  from  the  dews  and  rain. 
At  night  when  they  are  in  bed  the  flaps  at  both  ends  are  opened, 
and  the  air  blows  over  their  faces  and  their  bodies  all  night 
All  tents  have  wooden  floors  and  are  very  simple  and  plainly 
furnished.  Dr.  Pettit  is  a  master  in  this  work,  for  he  has  built 
up  this  institution  from  nothing  until  it  has  become  known  all 
over  the  United  States  as  one  of  the  best  conducted  and  most 
successful  of  private  sanatoriim[is  for  consumptives.  I  secured  sets 
&#;  of  blanks  used  at  this  institution,  also  took  copious  notes  in  regard 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


106 

to  the  management  of  patients  and  in  regard  to  diet,  entertain- 
ments, and  the  various  points  used  in  the  cure  of  the  disease.  This 
visit  was  most  satisfactory,  and  the  benefit  derived  can  not  be 
expressed  in  a  few  words. 


MADISON. 

In  conjunction  with  Dr.  Geo.  T.  McCoy  I  visited  Madison 
September  20  in  order  to  hold  a  tuberculosis  symposium.  The 
tuberculosis  exhibit  was  carried  along,  and  was  shown  in  one  of 
the  rooms  of  the  high  school  building.  Many  hundred  people 
visited  the  exhibit,  and  Dr.  McCoy  and  myself  explained  its 
various  features.  Addresses  were  delivered  in  the  afternoon  and 
the  evening.  In  the  afternoon  the  audience  was  small,  but  atten- 
tive and  appreciative.  In  the  evening  it  was  large  and  overflowing 
the  high  school.  It  is  certain  that  this  visit  to  Madison  was 
attended  with  good  results.  Many  citizens  expressed  their  ap- 
proval and  offered  their  services  in  procuring  proper  legislation 
in  pushing  onward  the  general  health  cause. 

COLUMBIA  CITY. 

In  response  to  a  cordial  invitation  from  the  Whitley  County 
Medical  Society,  I  visited  Columbia  City  on  September  25.  In 
the  afternoon  I  read  a  paper  before  the  Society  entitled,  "The 
Preparation  of  Antitoxins,  Methods  of  Purification  and  Notes 
Upon  Its  Administration."  The  paper  was  given  mostly  to  a  con- 
sideration of  diphtheria  antitoxin.  Its  history  was  perfectly  re- 
viewed, and  its  preparation  was  entered  into  quite  minutely. 
Special  attention  was  given  to  the  purification  and  concentration 
of  the  remedy  as  discovered  and  invented  by  Dr.  Gibson  of  the 
Xew  York  Board  of  Health.  The  notes  upon  the  administration 
were  kindly  received  and  thoroughly  discussed.  In  the  evening, 
under  the  auspices  of  the  society,  a  public  meeting  was  held  in 
the  Methodist  Church,  where  I  gave  my  usual  illustrated  lecture 
upon  the  prevention  and  cure  of  tuberculosis.  Close  and  appre- 
ciative attention  was  given,  and   a   cordial  vote  of  thanks  was

PERU. 

On  September  26  T  visited  Peru  to  deliver  an  illustrated  lecture 
upon  "Tuberculosis;  Its  Prevention  and  Cure"  before  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  I  was  greeted  by  a  large  audience,  which  filled  the  hall  to 
suffocation.  The  effort  was  certainly  appreciated,  for  a  unani- 
mous vote  of  thanks  was  passed,  and  several  speakers  offered  con- 
gratulations and  confidence  upon  the  work  which  was  being  done 
by  the  State  Board  of  Health. 

RICHMOND. 

I  went  to  Richmond  September  28  to  confer  with  President 
Davis  and  Prof.  Sackett  in  regard  to  making  a  sanitary  survey 
of  White  Eiver.  The  object  of  the  survey  was  to  determine  the 
degree  and  amount  of  pollution  which  this  stream  receives,  so 
that  authoritative  data  could  be  presented  to  the  coming  Legis- 
lature in  regard  to  the  matter. 

Upon  arrival  I  first  met  Dr.  Geo.  H.  Grant,  County  Health 
Officer,  who  expressed  himself  as  highly  concerned  in  regard  to 
the  typhoid  existing  in  the  city.  He  reported  seventeen  cases  in 
September,  and  at  the  time  of  the  visit  there  were  eight  in  the 
City  Hospital.  Many  mild  cases  had  existed,  as  was  proved  by 
blood  examinations  made  in  the  State  Laboratory.  Mr.  Barnard, 
Chemist  of  the  Board,  had  visited  at  Richmond  and  made  a  survey 
of  the  water  works,  and  numerous  analyses  were  made,  and  his 
report  is  inserted  herewith.  A  review  of  this  report  shows  that 
the  Gorman  gallery  had  certainly  re<;eived  water  from  the  river. 
Subsequent  examinations  by  workmen  discovered  a  large  hole, 
probably  four  inches  in  diameter,  leading  through  the  bank,  thus 
confirming  the  work  of  the  chemist.  This  hole  was  stopped  up, 
and  appropriate  cement  walls  built*  along  the  river's  edge  at  the 
said  gallery.  This  has  completely  shut  off  the  river,  and  analyses 
since  these  improvements  show  the  gallery  water  to  be  without 
fault  It  is  now  believed  that  the  Richmond  supply  is  satisfactory 
in  every  respect.  It  is  very  probable  that  Hot  a  little  of  the 
typhoid  was  spread  by  the  public  water ;  yet  it  is  certain  that  very 
many  cases  were  caused  by  polluted  wells.  Together  with  Dr. 
Grant  I  visited  the  homes  of  six  of  the  patients  lying  in  the 
hospital  with  the  fever.     All  of  these  homes  might  well  be  termed 


Digitized  by  VjOOQIC 


108 

typhoid  homes.  They  all  had  shallow  wells  with  dirty  back- 
yards, and  open,  reeking  outhouses.  None  of  the  families  were  of 
that  degree  of  cleanliness  and  neatness  which  is  necessary  to 
keep  typhoid  at  a  distance.  While  two  of  the  patients  whose 
homes  were  visited  might  have  secured  their  disease  from  the 
public  water  supply,  it  is  more  than  probable  that  they  caught  it 
at  home. 

In  the  evening,  with  Dr.  Davis,  I  called  upon  Dr.  Charles  Bond, 
City  Health  Officer,  and  there  the  typhoid  situation  was  lior- 
oughly  considered.  Reports  of  the  facte  obtainable,  together  with 
the  opinions  of  several  physicians,  pointed  to  the  conclusion  that 
the  outbreak  had  passed  its  height  and  was  now  on  the  decline. 
It  has  not  been  deemed  necessary  to  recommend  to  the  people 
that  the  water  from  the  public  water  supply  be  boiled,  because 
only  one  of  the  galleries  was  found  to  be  suspicious,  and  the 
source  of  its  supply  was  so  quickly  corrected. 

It  was  arranged  with  Prof.  Sackett  to  commence  the  survey 
of  White  River  as  soon  as  he  possibly  could,  arid  he  would  be 
paid  from  the  general  funds  of  the  Board  at  the  rate  of  $250 
per  month. 

REPORT  OF  EXAMINATION  OF  THE  RICHMOND  WATER  SUPPLY. 
H.  E.  Barnard,  Chemist. 

In  response  to  a  request  from  Dr.  T.  Henry  Davis,  health  officer  of 
the  city  of  Richmond,  and  Howard  DiU,  superintendent  of  the  Richmond 
Water  Works  Company,  on  August  27,  ,  I  visited  the  various  sources 
of  supply,  collected  suitable  samples  for  chemical  and  microscopical  analy- 
sis.   The  results  of  the  examination  are  as  foUows: 

The  water  supply  of  the  city  of  Richmond  is  furnished  by  the  Rich- 
mond Water  Works  Company,  and  consists  of  a  double  system,  employing 
both  direct  pressure  on  the  mains  and  gravity  system  with  reservoir. 
The  water  is  taken  from  two  sources,  one  the  Cooper  weU,  so  caUed,  and 
the  other  a  chain  of  gallery  wells  sunk  along  the  bank  of  the  East  Fork 
of  the  Whitewater  at  varying  distances  from  the  river. 

THE  COOPER  WELL. 

The  Cooper  well  is  situated  near  the  center  of  a  natural  basin  having 
a  watershed  two  and  one-half  square  miles  in  area.  This  watershed  is 
largely  cultivated  land,  and  consists  of  several  farms,  each  with  a  group 
of  buildings,  and  has  nn  approximate  population  of  thirty  persons  and  a 
large  number  of  cattle  and  hogs.  None  of  the  farm  yards  or  buildings 
are  nearer  than  forty  rods,  and  none  are  so  located  that  drainage  flows

In  the  direction  of  the  well.  The  well  consists  of  a  large  bricked  basin 
covered  and  protected.  The  basin  is  about  twenty  feet  deep  and  fifteen 
feet  in  diameter,  and  contains  normally  ten  or  twelve  feet  of  water.  The 
well  is  sunk  in  a  bed  of  gravel  overlaid  with  two  feet  of  black  loam.  The 
gravel  is  fine  and  the  bed  evidently  covers  the  entire  area  of  the  water- 
shed, and  is,  in  fact,  a  large  natural  filter.  The  well  is  supplied  with 
water  from  this  gravel  bed.  a  surface  or  shallow  well  water  derived  from 
the  rains  falling  upon  the  watershed  and  modified  by  slow  filtration  and 
oxidation  of  organic  matter.  The  temperature  of  the  water  is  nearly  con- 
stant at  52  degrees  F.  throughout  the  year.  An  analysis  of  the  water 
shows  a  normal  water  containing  a  small  amount  of  iron,  which  slowly 
precipitates  when  the  water  is  exposed  to  light  and  air.  Pathogenic  and 
sewage  bacteria  are  absent.  The  water  from  the  Cooper  w^ell  flows  by 
gravity  through  a  IG-inch  pipe  to  the  pumping  station,  being  carried  over 
the  eight  feet  of  elevation  at  the  crest  of  the  basin  by  a  syphon,,  and  there 
enters  a  receiving  basin,  is  mixed  with  gallery  water  and  pumped  directly 
to  the  mains,  the  overflow  going  to  the  reservoir 

THE  WHITE  GALLERY. 

The  White  gallery,  so  called,  is  simply  a  well  which  extends  under 
the  ground  horizontally  for  Bome  hundred  feet.  It  is  arched  over  with 
brick  laid  in  cement  and  built  upon  a  stone  foundation,  and  so  con- 
structed that  water  can  enter  only  from  the  bottom.  The  gallery  is  100 
feet  from  the  bed  of  the  river,  and  derives  its  supply  from  the  water- 
shed extending  above  and  away  from  the  river  for  an  eighth  of  a  mile 
or  more,  and  from  infiltration  from  the  East  Fork  of  the  Whitewater. 
The  analysis  of  the  water  shows  no  jwllutlon  whatever.  The  water  is  of 
the  same  composition  as  the  river  water,  except  that  a  more  complete 
oxidation  has  taken  place,  as  is  sliown  by  decreased  albuminoid  ammonia 
content,  the  absence  of  nitrites  and  increased  nitrates. 

It  is  evident  that  the  earth  iiank,  100  feet  or  more  in  thickness,  be- 
tween the  gallery  and  the  river  is  actinc:  as  an  efficient  filter  and  is  re- 
moving entirely  all  of  its  undesirable  characteristics  that  are  present  in 
the  river  water  itself. 

THE  HILL  GALLERY. 

The  Hill  gallery,  so  called,  is  constructed  like  the  White  gallery,  being 
a  brick  arched  gallery  GOO  feet  long,  some  150  feet  from  the  bed  of  the 
river,  which  it  parallels.  The  composition  of  the  water  is  excellent  and  is 
identical  with  that  from  the  White  gallery. 

THE  GORMAN   GALLERY. 

The  Gorman  gallery,  located  along  the  river  bed  some  twenty-five 
feet  from  the  bank,  and  the  nearest  galleiy  to  the  pumping  station,  is 
constructed  like  the  other  galleries.  It  receives  water  from  the  Hill  gal- 
lery, and  under  usual  conditions  delivers  a  mixed  supply.  Tlie  sanipio 
analyzed  was  taken  at  the  lower  end  of  the  gallery  after  the  supply  had 
been  cut  off  frbm  the  Hill  gallery,  and  represents  as  nearly  as  possible

no 

the  water  which  collects  in  the  Gorman  gallery.  The  composition  of  the 
water  is  very  similar  to  that  of  the  raw  river  water.  The  albuminoid 
ammonia  is  higher  than  in  the  other  gallery  samples,  the  nitrates  lower; 
nitrites  are  present,  and  the  sample  examined  showed  B.  coli  present  in 
both  5  c.  c.  and  1  c.  c.  samples.  It  Is  evident  that  the  Gorman  gallery  is 
receiving  water  from  the  river  that  is  not  fully  oxidized,  and  that  the 
twenty-flve  feet  of  earth  between  the  river  and  the  galltflry  is  insufficient 
to  purify  properly  the  water. 

THE  RESERVOIR. 

Under  ordinary  conditions  the  water  service  is  by  direct  pressure  on 
the  mains,  but,  as  an  auxiliary  supply,  a  reservoir  is  provided  with  a  ca- 
pacity of  8,000,000  gallons.  The  reservoir  is  twenty -five  feet  deep,  cover- 
ing an  area  of  two  acres,  and  has  a  cemented  bottom  and  sloping  sides 
built  of  stone  laid  up  with  loose  joints.  The  Interstices  between  the 
stones  are  filled  with  mud  and  sludge,  and  afford  a  foothold  for  algae  and 
gn'asses.  The  composition  of  the  water  in  the  reservoir,  as  is  indicated 
by  the  several  analyses  made  of  samples  collected  on  different  days,  is 
practically  constant  and  is  an  average  of  the  supplies  from  the  Cooper 
well  and  the  other  galleries.  There  Is  a  decided  increase  in  albuminoid 
ammonia  and  nitrite  contents,  together  with  lowered  solids  and  hardness. 
The  increased  ammonia  contents  are  due  to  the  presence  in  the  supply 
of  decomposing  organic  matter,  and  the  lessened  solids  to  the  precipita- 
tion of  iron  and  calcium  salts  in  the  form  of  sludge,  due  to  the  continued 
exposure  of  the  water  In  the  reservoir  to  the  sun  and  air.  A  bacterial 
examination  of  the  water  made  on  n  sample  kept  at  ordinary  summer 
temperature  for  twenty  hours  showed  but  31  per  cc.,  after  forty-eight 
hours'  growth,  a  very  favorable  showing  indeed.  There  is  a  perceptible 
odor  to  the  water  at  the  reservoir,  which  becomes  pronounced  after  the 
water  has  stood  In  a  closed  receptacle  or  is  heated.  The  odor  is  due  to 
the  decomposition  of  a  plant'  of  the  order  "characeae,"  known  as  "chara." 
The  characeae  are  plants  which  occupy  an  intermediate  position  between 
the  algae  and  the  higher  cryptograms.  The  plant  has  a  distinct  stem, 
with  whorls  or  branches  at  regular  intervals.  These  branches  are  some- 
times spoken  of  as  leaves,  and  at  the  lower  end  of  the  stem  assume  a  root- 
like form  which  fastens  the  plant  to  the  mud  and  gives  It  stability.  This 
characteristic  of  the  plant  makes  it  impossible  to  eradicate  it  except  by 
taking  away  Its  moans  of  support.  This  can  be  done  by  cementing  the 
walls  of  the  reservoir.  The  characeae  injure  the  water  only  by  rendering 
It  unpleasant  to  the  taste  and  smell.  This  species  i>ossesses  the  property 
of  secreting  calcium  carbonate,  and  properly  servo  in  a  measure  to  soften 
the  water  in  the  rosorvoir. 

SUMMARY. 

The  water  supplying  the  city  of  Richmond  is  of  excellent  quality, 
free  from  an  excess  of  organic  matter  and  Iron.  The  water  from  the 
Cooper  well  Is  slightly  harder  than  that  from  the  galleries,  and  contains 
a  slight  amount  of  iron  that  precipitates  out  on  standing.

The  White  and  Hill  galleries  provide  a  supply  of  pure,  well-filtered 
water,  probably  largely  derived  from  the  East  Fork  of  the  Whitewater. 
The  filtration  is  perfect,  and  the  distance  between  the  galleiies  and  the 
river  insures  continued  efilciency  of  the  intervening  earth  well  as  a  filter. 

The  Gorman  gallery  receives  water  from  the  river  which  has  not 
been  thoroughly  purified.  It  is  of  practically  the  same  composition  as  the 
river,  containing  high  albuminoid  ammonia,  nitrites  and  the  bacilli  coll 
communis.  The  Gorman  gallery  is  located  too  near  the  river,  for  while 
all  sediment  is  removed,  the  filtration  is  not  suflicient  to  remove  patho- 
genic bacteria,  and  oxidation  of  organic  matter  is  not  completed  as  in  the 
case  of  the  other  galleries.  The  reservoir  is  well  located,  protected  against 
outside  contamination,  and,  except  for  the  presence  of  the  chara,  in  good 
condition.  The  chara  can  best  be  eradicated  by  drawing  off  the  water, 
cleaning  out  the  interstices  between  the  stones  forming  the  sides  and 
washing  with  a  strong  cement,  so  that  the  crevices  are  filled  and  no  lodg- 
ment provided  for  mud  and  sediment.  It  is  not  necessary  to  put  a  cement 
fioor  on  the  side  of  the  reservoir,  as  has  been  done  to  the  bottom,  as  a 
comparatively  inexpensive  wash  will  serve  the  same  purpose. 

In  enlarging  the  capacity  of  the  system,  water  taken  from  the  basin 
near  the  Cooper  well  or  from  gallery  wells  located  at  least  100  feet  from 
the  river  bank  will  be  entirely  satisfactory,  free  from  the  possibility  of 
present  or  future  pollution,  and  of  a  moderate  hardness  and  well  adapted 
to  the  uses  of  a  public  water  supply.

ROCIIESTKR. 


On  October  2,  in  response  to  an  invitation  of  the  ^'University 
Association  of  Rochester/'  I  visited  this  place  to  give  my  illus- 
trated lecture  upon  the  ".Prevention  and  Cure  of  Tuberculosis."

I  was  surprised  to  be  made  the  honor  guest  of  a  dinner  by  Dr. 
Shafer,  who  had  invited  the  physicians  of  the  county  to  said 
dinner  in  his  new  sanatorium.  The  occasion  was  most  enjoyable, 
and  the  communication  with  these  practitioners  of  the  county  was 
surely  beneficial  to  the  public  health  cause. 

In  the  evening  my  lecture  was  delivered  in  church,  that  was 
filled  and  overflowing.  Upon  arrival  I  was  unable  to  get  in  at  the 
front,  and  was  compelled  to  enter  through  a  rear  door.  Mr. 
Bidder,  editor  of  the  Rochester  Republican,  manipulated  the  lan- 
tern, and  among  the  audience  was  Senator  Stephenson  and  Mr. 
Bamhart,  editor  of  the  Rochester  Sentinel.  The  superintendent  of 
the  schools,  the  mayor  and  the  president  of  the  Rochester  College, 
with  teachers  and  citizens,  were  present.  A  resolution  of  thanks 
and  approval,  also  commendation  of  the  work  of  the  State  Board 
of  Health  was  passed. 

MUNCIE. 

On  October  8  I  visited  Muncie  to  deliver  the  usual  illustrated 
lecture  upon  "Tuberculosis ;  Its  Prevention  and  Cure,"  before  the 
meeting  of  the  citizens  with  the  State  Charities  Association.  At- 
torney-General Miller  presided,  and  State  Senators  Kimbrough 
and  Hendee,  together  with  prominent  citizens,  were  present  in  the 
audience.  Gen.  Miller,  as  presiding  officer,  made  an  address  in 
which  he  approved  and  urged  others  to  help  in  the  work  of 
creating  a  State  health  farm  for  consumptive^.  My  lecture  was 
followed  with  fifteen  minute  remarks  by  Dr.  Hugh  Cowing, 
Health  Officer  of  Delaware  County,  and  the  same  time  was  given 
to  "The  Social  -Aspect  of  Tuberculosis,"  by  Mr.  Fagg,  of  Evans- 
ville.  This  meeting  was  a  very  great  success,  and  doubtless  much 
good  was  accomplished. 

MUNCIE. 

October  10  I  visited  Muncie  to  lecture  before  the  Indiana  Fed- 
eration of  Women's  Clubs.  The  lecture  was  entitled  "What  Can 
the  Women  Do  to  Help  On  the  Public  Health  Cause?"  The 
exercises  were  held  in  the  Commercial  Club  rooms,  the  same  being 
crowded  to  overflowing.  The  lecture  called  the  attention  to  the 
fact  that  almost  one  thousand  mothers  in  the  ages  of  eighteen  to' 
forty  died  annually  of  one  disease,   and   this   is  a  preventable

disease ;  that  their  sisters,  the  women  of  the  State,  could  certainly 
do  a  great  deal  to  bring  before  the  people  the  importance  of  pre- 
venting tuberculosis.  Many  of  the  well  known  methods  now  prac- 
ticed in  this  work  were  reviewed  and  detailed,  special  stress  being 
laid  upon  the  point  that  "success  lay  in  education."  Resolutions 
of  thanks  were  adopted  on  account  of  the  lecture,  and  expressing 
confidence  and  approval  in  the  work  of  the  State  Board  of 
irealth. 

DEATHS  AND  DISEASES  DURING  THE  QUARTER. 

Total  deaths  8,812.  In  same  quarter  last  year  8,625.  There 
was  more  smallpox  than  in  same  quarter  last  year,  and  fewer 
deaths,  but  other  infectious 'diseases  show  no  diminution. 

The  following  table  gives  the  smallpox  comparisons :

given  the  Widal  reaction  in  instances  where  the  disease  was  not 
suspected. 

PROSECUTION  OF  BUTCHERS. 

The  prosecuting  attorney  of  the  Indianapolis  district  was  duly 
informed  of  the  adulteration  of  sausages  and  chopped  meats  found 
in  the  Indianapolis  Market.  The  attorney  thereupon  began 
direct  prosecution  in  the  Marion  County  Criminal  Court  in  July, 
.  Fourteen  meat  dealers  were  arraigned,  their  names  appear- 
ing below  in  the  report  of  the  Chemist.     The  first  case  tried  was

against  Harry  Matzke,  charged  with  using  sodium  sulphite  as  a 
preservative  and  color  keeper  in  Hamburg  steak. 

The  trial  attracted  much  public  attention,  for  the  defendants 
brought  expert  witnesses  from  Chicago  and  other  places  to  testify 
to  the  harmlessness  of  sulphite  of  soda  in  food  as  a  preservative. 
The  trial  extended  over  three  days,  and  evidently  the  jury  was 
not  convinced  that  sodium  sulphite  was  injurious  to  health,  for 
it  stood  seven  to  five  for  convictioiL 

Upon  consultation  with  the  prosecutors,  it  was  decided  that  as 
all  the  dealers  promised  not  to  use  preservatives  hereafter,  that 
it  would  be  best  not  to  bring  the  accused  to  trial,  and  accordingly 
the  cases  were  dismissed.  Following  is  the  record  of  the  dealers 
and  the  articles  adulterated.

INSPECTION  OF  SLAUGHTER  HOUSES. 

In  July  Dr.  Davis  directed  that  an  inspection  of  slaughter- 
houses in  the  State  be  made>.  Accordingly  a  blank  was  prepared 
and  supplies  of  the  same  sent  to  all  city  and  town  health  officers. 
Of  the  390  officers  of  this  class,  351  promptly  replied  by  making 
surveys  of  the  slaughter-houses  furnishing  meats  in  their  juris- 
dictions. Upon  review  of  the  records  ,it  appears  that  of  460 
slaughter-houses  inspected  77  per  cent,  were  exceedingly  unsani- 
tary, 16  per  cent,  passable,  and  only  7  per  cent  in  good  condi- 
tion. Somie  of  the  terms  used  in  describing  the  conditions  were: 
"revolting,"  "horrible  stench,''  "rotting  blood  and  entrails,"  "in- 
describably awful,"  "sickening." 

In  August  letters  were  ^^ent  to  the  authorities  of  cities  and 
towns  where  unsanitary  slaugliter-housos  were  reported,  calling 
attention  to  the  necessity  of  correction.  Tt  was  recommended  that 
an  ordinance  be  passed  excluding  moats  from  any  slauglitcT-house 
which  was  not  sanitary  according  to  the  definition  laid  down  in 
said  ordinance.    The  ordinance  read  as  follows :

THE  SECOND  ANNUAL  MEETING  OF  THE  NATIONAL  ASSOCIA- 
TION FOR  THE  STUDY  AND  PREVENTION 
OF  TUBERCULOSIS. 

Washington,  D.  C,  May  16-18,  ,  Reported  by  Geo.  T.  McCoy,  M.  D., 
Member  of  the  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health,  Columbus,  Indiana. 

To  the  President  and  the  Members  of- the  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health: 

Gentlemen &#; As  your  representative  I  attended  the  second  annual 
meeting  of  **The  National  Association  for  the  Study  and  Prevention  of 
Tuberculosis,"  which  convened  In  Washington,  D.  C,  May  16,  . 

The  first  meeting  was  held  in  conjunction  with  the  Association  of 
American  Physicians,  and  was  addressed  by  Dr.  Simon  Flexner,  of  New 
York,  on  the  subject  of  "Immunity  in  Tuberculosis."  The  meeting  was 
presided  over  by  Dr.  Frank  Billings,  of  Chicago.  There  were  500  dele- 
gates present  at  this  first  meeting,  showing  the  interest  the  public  is  tak- 
ing In  the  crusade  against  tuberculosis.  Dr.  Edward  I^  Trudeau,  of 
Saranac  Lake,  New  York,  also  addressed  the  meeting,  detailing  some  of 
his  results  in  preventive  inoculation  among  animals.  Dr.  Trudeau  was 
encouraged  from  his  success  to  predict  that  the  same  results  would  ulti- 
mately be  accomplished  In  treating  human  beings. 

The  general  attendance  of  the  meetings  was  something  less  than  the 
first  meeting,  in  ,  but  the  character  of  the  papers  presented  was  be- 
yond the  standard  then  obtained. 

The  scientific  work  this  year  was  grouped  in  five  sections,  two  new 
ones  (surgery  and  tuberculosis  in  children)  having  been  added. 

Many  important  and  timely  subjects  were  discussed.  "Tuberculosis 
Nostrums"  was  the  title  of  a  characteristic  paper  by  Samuel  Hopkins 
Adams,  of  New  York.  He  finds  cause  for  the  encouragement  in  the  fact 
that  the  whole  matter  of  nostrum  control  is  under  adjustment.  Patent 
medicine  bills  have  been  agitated  in  many  State  Legislatures  and  the 
press  of  the  country  is  taking  a  more  commendable  stand  upon  the 
subject 

"Three  Cases  of  Placental  Tuberculosis,"  illustrated  by  lantern  slides, 
was  the  subject  of  a  very  interesting  paper  by  Dr.  Alfred  Scott  Warthin, 
of  Ann  Arbor.  In  the  discussion  Dr.  W.  H.  Welch,  of  Johns  Hopkins 
University,  stated  that  the  evidence  Is  becoming  stronger  and  stronger 
that  conveyance  from  mother  to  fetus  Is  at  least  not  so  very  extraordinary, 
and  is  probably  far  more  frequent  than  is  commonly  supposed.  Twenty 
cases  of  placental  tuberculosis  have  been  reported.  Dr.  Welch  regards 
the  question  of  placental  lesions  as  a  subject  of  really  fundamental  Im- 
portance In  the  etiology  of  tuberculosis.  That  tuberculosis  in  the  new 
bom  does  not  more  frequently  develop  has  been  explained  in  two  ways; 
first,  that  the  bacilli  get  in  late,  and  hence  there  is  no  time  for  tuber-

122 

culosls  to  develop;  and,  second,  that  the  fetus  Is  relatively  insusceptible. 
The  fetal  blood  may  be  filled  with  tubercle  bacilli,  and  no  localized  lesion 
be  developed.  There  is  abundant  evidence  to  show  that  the  fetus  may 
harbor  tubercle  bacilli  for  weeks  without  the  development  of  lesions. 

"The  Serum  Diagnosis  of  Tuberculosis"  was  presented  by  Drs.  King- 
horn  and  Twitchell,  of  Saranae  Lake  The  results  of  their  experiments 
seem  to  show  that  it  is  not  a  specific  sign  of  the  presence  of  tuberculosis, 
and  that  it  is  of  no  value  in  the  early  dhignosis  of  the  disease.  ("The 
Serum  Prognosis  of  Tuberculosis"  is  attracting  much  attention,  and  is 
likely  to  become  a  valuable  aid  to  the  clinician.)  The  same  may  be  said 
of  the  Opsonic  Index  of  Wright  and  Douglas,  especially  in  its  relation  to 
the  treatment  of  tuberculin. 

**The  Therapeutic  Use  of  Tuberculin  Combined  with  Sanatorium 
Treatment  of  Tuberculosis"  was  the  subject  of  an  exhaustive  report  by 
Dr.  Trudeau,  in  which  he  presented  a  summary  of  the  impressions  gained 
from  its  use  at  Sarnnac  Lake  since  .  Tuberculin  is  a  powerful  agent 
and  must  be  used  with  care.  Fever  reaction  is  not  necessary,  and  every 
effort  should  be  made  to  avoid  its  production;  hence  very  minute  doses 
are  to  be  used  in  the  beginning.  The  danger  from  tuberculin  lies  wholly 
in  Its  faulty  administration.  Six  months  me  almost  always  necessary 
for  the  treatment,  and  in  many  cases  a  year  would  be  better.  The  reac- 
tion of  the  patient  is  of  more  value  in  determining  the  dosage  than  is  the 
Opsonic  Index.  As  a  result  of  his  exi)erienoe  Dr.  Trudeau  still  holds  to 
the  opinion  formed  years  ago.  namely,  that  tuberculin  aids  in  the  sana- 
torium treatment  of  tuberculosis,  but  he  re.i^rets  tliat  there  is  no  standard 
strength  for  the  preparation,  and  that  there  is  so  little  known  positively 
about  the  action  and  the  streugtli  of  the  dose  that  would  give  the  best 
results.  Therefore  its  use  must  be  left  largely  to  the  skill  and  Judgment 
of  the  physician  in  each  individual  case. 

One  of  the  most  important  sessions  was  that  devoted  to  "Tuberculosis 
in  Children."  A  number  of  valuable  papers  were  presented  in  this  sec- 
tion, and  the  discussions  were  the  most  spirited  of  any  during  the  entire 
meeting.  In  the  absence  of  Dr.  A.  Jacobi,  Dr.  David  Bovaird,  of  New 
York,  presented  the  subject  of  "Sources  of,  and  Portal  Entry  'of,  the  In- 
fectious Agents  in  Tuberculosis  of  Infants  and  Young  Children."  Dr. 
Bovaird  has  had  a  large  experience  in  autopsies  on  children,  and  was 
well  qualified  to  speak  of  the  sources  of  infection  as  displayed  in  post- 
mortem findings.  He  said  that  while  there  were  records  of  cases  of  local 
infection,  tuberculosis  of  the  skin,  bones,  the  eye,  etc.,  where  there  was 
no  doubt  that  the  infection  came  from  contact  of  tuberculosis  material 
with  the  part  affected,  they  are  so  rare  as  to  form  an  almost  negligible 
quantity  In  the  general  consideration  of  the  subject.  The  results  of 
autopsies  showed  that  infection  came  almost  solely  from  two  sources,  the 
inhalation  of  the  tubercle  bacilli,  or  its  ingestion  with  food.  In  this  con- 
nection it  is  remarkable  how  few  cases  of  intestinal  tuberculosis  are  found 
even  when  the  lungs  are  seriously  affected,  and  where  the  patient  must 
have  been  swallowing  millions  of  tubercle  bacilli  every  day.  Reasoning 
from  this  standpoint,  the  drinking  of  milk  from  tuberculosis  cows  is  not 
attended  with  veiy  grave  dangers,  but  the  apparent  protection  of  the 
intestinal  glands  in  those  having  the  disease  in  the  lungs,  may  not  extend

123 

to  the  non-tubercular.  He  did  not  advocate  any  relaxation  In  the  strin- 
gency of  milk  laws  on  this  account.  Tuberculosis  of  the  intestinal  tract 
is  much  more  common  among  children  in  English,  German  and  French 
hospilals  than  in  American  liospitals. 

'&#;Protection  of  Infants  and  Young  Children  from  Tuberculosis"  was 
the  subject  of  a  paper  presented  by  Dr.  John  Lovett  Morse,  of  Boston. 
This  is  an  exceedingly  difficult  problem,  especially  in  the  crowded  environ- 
ment of  tenements,  and  after  such  diseases  as  measles,  whooping  cough 
and  influenza.  The  danger  of  infection  of  the  children  is  greatest  on  ac- 
count of  their  association  with  tuberculous  parents.  The  parent  should 
Hut  bi!  allowed  to  keep  and  handle  the  child;  they  should  be  separated  at 
the  earliest  possible  moment  if  the  child  is  to  escape  infection.  The 
establishment  of  as  many  playgrounds  and  places  of  outdoor  exercise  and 
eniortiiiiiment  as  is  possible  should  be  urged  upon  those  in  authority,  the 
results  largely  depending  upon  the  amount  of  money  that  the  public  Is 
wJiling  to  spend  in  its  campaign  of  education  and  in  making  provision 
b/  means  of  sanatoria  and  other  institutions  for  the  care  of  less  fortunate 
individuals. 

Surgeon  General  Wyman  addressed  the  Association  in  its  last  session 
on  the  methods  employed  by  the  government  for  the  prevention  of  the 
spread  of  consumption  among  Government  employes.  General  Wyman 
related  that  In  accordance  with  the  resolution  passed  by  the  Association 
last  ye'ar,  the  President  had  appointed  boards  of  inquiry  to  determine  the 
best  method  to  be  followed  in  the  sanitation  of  public  buildings,  and  the 
conduct  of  the  emi)loyes  in  relation  to  tuberculosis.  Under  the  terms  of 
the  executive  order  the  public  buildings  under  the  War  and  Navy  De- 
partments will  be  inspected  by  board's  of  medical  officers  appointed  by 
the  respective  Surgeons  General  of  these  two  departments.  AU  other 
public  buildings  will  be  inspected  by  boards  appointed  by  the  Surgeon 
General  of  the  Public  Health  and  Marine  Hospital  Service.  The  reports 
of  these  boards  will  be  made  under  two  distinct  heads:  first,  unsanitary 
conditions  immediately  remediable;  and,  second,  unsanitary  conditions 
requiring  structural  changes.  A  start  has  been  made  In  the  City  of 
Washington,  and  with  the  experience  gained  there  the  inspections  will 
be  gradually  oxtencied  throughout  the  United  States.  The  organization 
of  this  great  work,  as  outlined  above,  has  been  most  carefully  considered, 
and  it  is  confidently  expected  that  great  good  will  result. 

In  the  absence  of  Dr.  Herman  Biggs,  President  of  the  Association, 
the  annual  address  was  delivered  by  Dr.  Lawrence  F.  Flick,  of  Phila- 
delphia, Vice-President.  Dr.  Flick  spoke  of  the  good  work  accomplished 
by  the  Association  during  the  past  year,  prominent  among  which  is  the 
establishment  of  tuberculosis  exhibition  meetings  throughout  the  country, 
and  the  bringing  to  this  country  the  "International  Tuberculosis  Associa- 
tion" in  .  The  local  exhibitions  hold  in  a  number  of  cities  of  the  coun- 
try during  the  past  winter  ncconiplisliod  a  groat  deal  of  good  in  educating 
the  people.  The  program  is  to  be  extended  to  other  cities  and  towns. 
The  advisability  of  establishing  permanent  exhibitions  In  the  large  cities 
Is  to  be  considered.  For  the  Congress  he  urges  the  raising  of  a  fund  of 
,000  for  expenses,  and  the  early  opening  in  Washington  City  of  an 
ofQce  for  arranging  the  details  of  the  meeting.     Dr.  Flick  asserted  that

124 

the  strength  of  the  National  Association  lay  in  the  fact  that  its  ambition 
to  eradicate  consumption  could  be  gratified.  He  advocated  the  establish- 
ment of  hospitals,  sanatoria,  convalescent  farms,  public  dispensaries, 
where  the  poor  could  be  served,  and  the  scientific  care  of  the  a£91cted  in 
their  homes.  He  with  others  criticises  the  medical  schools  for  turning 
out  graduates  unacquainted  with  the  best  methods  of  diagnosis,  and  the 
best  means  of  combating  the  disease.  To  create  a  more  widespread  in- 
terest in  the  subject  of  the  prevention  of  tuberculosis,  he  recommended 
the  establishment  of  a  lecture  bureau,  providing  speakers  to  visit  every 
part  of  the  country,  and  disseminate  knowledge  of  how  to  combat  the 
disease  successfully. 

The  emblem  of  membership  of  the  National,  State  and  Local  Tuber- 
culosis Associations  was  declared  to  be  the  double  red  cross. 

It  would  be  impossible  in  a  report  of  this  kind  to  more  than  mention 
the  many  excellent  papers  presented,  and  the  earnest  discussions  follow- 
ing the  reading  of  each  paper.  One  must  have  been  there  to  appreciate 
the  great  work  accomplished  at  this  meeting.  The  attendance  at  each 
session  was  remarkably  good,  and  the  best  of  attention  was  given  to  the 
reading  and  discussion  of  papers.  The  coming  and  going  of  members 
during  the  reading  of  papers,  that  is  (fften  so  annoying  at  large  meetings 
of  this  klr^d,  was  not  noticed. 

Besides  the  pleasure  of  listening  to  the  reading  and  discussion  of 
papers,  the  mingling  with  the  delegates  and  listening  to  the  words  of 
wisdom  from  the  lips  of  the  great  men  in  the  profession  in  quiet  conversa- 
tion was  a  pleasure  that  one  can  scarcely  forget.  The  whole  meeting 
seemed  to  b  pervaded  with  an  atmosphere  of  earnestness  and  deep 
learning. 

It  was  with  much  chagrin  that  your  representative  noticed  the  marks 
of  evident  surprise  opon  the  countenances  of  inquiring  members  when 
the  statement  had  to  be  made  that  the  great  State  of  Indiana,  one  of  the 
foremost  States  of  the  Union,  had  no  plan  to  care  for  her  unfortunate 
consumptives.  i 

Ordered,  That  Secretary's  report  be  spread  of  record,

After  due  consideration  of  Dr.  Keene's  resignation  the  following 
resolution  was  adopted : 

Kesolved,  That  the  resignation  of  Dr.  T.  Victor  Keene,  as 
Superintendent  of  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  to  take  effect  November 
30,  ,  be  accepted,  and  in  accepting  said  resignation  the  Board 
wishes  to  convey  to  Dr.  Keene  its  sincere  thanks  for  the  very  com- 
petent way  in  which  he  has  conducted  the  work  of  the  Laboratory 
and  that  its  best  wishes  for  his  success  go  with  him  in  his  future 
work. 

The  following  letter  from  Lederle  Antitoxin  Laboratories  was 
read : 

October  5,  . 
State  Board  of  Health,  Indinnar'Olls,  Ind.: 

Gentlemen &#; We  beg  to  submit  the  following  proposition  for  supply- 
lug  the  local  Boards  of  Health  throughout  the  State  of  Indiana  with  diph- 
theria antitoxin  for  the  free  treatment  of  those  in  the  State  too  poor  to 
otherwise  procure  antitoxin.  This  is  the  same  plan  that  is  now  in  force 
in  Oliio  and  which  is  working  out  very  satisfactorily  there. 

We  are  sending  you,  under  separate  cover,  by  mail,  a  package  of  anti- 
toxin as  we  prepare  it  for  the  Ohio  State  Board  of  Health.  You  will 
notice  we  have  a  special  label  for  them.  We  enclose  herewith  a  clinical 
report  blank,  one  of  which  is  enclosed  In  each  package  of  antitoxin 
shipped  to  the  Ohio  State  Board  of  Health.  We  propose  to  prepare  the 
packages  for  your  State  Board  in  the  same  manner  as  we  prepare  those 
for  Ohio.  We  wUl  ship  you  a  stock  of  the  various  doses  required,  1,000, 
2,000.  3,000,  4,000  and  5,000  units,  together  with  memorandum  sheets  in 
triplicate  similar  to  the  set  enclosed  marked  number  one.  Upon  shipment 
of  a  lot  of  goods  to  any  Board  of  Health  in  your  State  one  of  these  blanks 
properly  filled  out  should  be  mailed  to  us,  another  to  the  Board  of  Health, 
and  the  third  copy  kept  for  your  own  file.  Upon  receipt  of  this  memo- 
randum we  will  forward  bill  for  the  goods  from  this  office  and  take  care 
of  the  account  in  future. 

It  is  not  customfiry  with  us  at  the  figures  we  quote  on  these  goods 
to  exchange  them,  but  in  order  to  promote  the  use  of  antitoxin  we  will 
permit  the  return  to  you  of  unused  antitoxin  by  your  local  boards  within 
a  period  of  thirty  days  from  its  receipt.  This  gives  the  local  board  ample 
opportunity  to  know  whether  there  is  likelihood  of  the  remedy  being  re- 
quired and  at  the  same  time  permits  of  the  antitoxin  being  used  in 
another  locality,  as  during  the  period  named  its  efficiency  has  not  been 
affected.  We  enclose  blanks,  marked  set  number  two.  Upon  receipt  of 
any  return  goods  from  a  local  Board  of  Health  you  will  have  a  set  of 
these  blanks  filled  out,  mailing  one  to  this  ottice,  keep  one  for  your  tile, 
and  the  third  send  to  the  local  Board  of  Health.  Upon  receipt  of  this 
blank  we  will  charge  your  stock  account  with  the  amount  of  goods  you 
have  reported  received  from  the  local  Board  and  will  credit  the  account 
of  the  local  Board  with  the  necessary  amount.

127 

From  time  to  time  you  may  order  from  us  such  stock  a^  may  be  re- 
quired to  tteep  your  own  in  good  condition,  making  a  point,  however,  of  al- 
ways shipping  your  oldest  stock  first.  At  the  end  of  each  month  a  stock 
statement  will  be  rendered  you  from  this  office.  This  will  be  made  up  of 
all  the  stock  shipped  you  during  the  month,  plus  such  as  you  have  received 
from  local  Boards  less  such  as  our  memorandums  show  has  been  shipped 
from  your  office  to  Boards  of  Health.  The  balance  shown  on  this  state- 
ment should  agree  with  ^ur  stock  on  hand  at  the  end  of  the  month.  This 
yon  can  have  checked  up  and  return  to  us  with  your  O.  K. 

We  will  supply  this  antitoxin  to  the  Boards  of  Health  throughout 
your  State  at  the  following  prices: 

1,000  units $0  75 

2,00<)  units 1  25 

3,000  units 1  75 

4,000  units 2  25 

5,000  units 2  75 

&#;  We  will  pay  any  transportation  charges  on  these  goods  to  your  office 
and  also  such  expenses  as  you  may  have  in  shipping  the  goods  to  local 
Boards  of  Health.  Elach  week  or  month,  as  you  prefer,  a  bill  of  expense 
for  transportation  charges  may  be  furnished  us. 

We  enclose  a  copy  of  a  circular  which  Dr.  Probst  used  in  instnicting 
the  Boards  of  Health  in  his  State  conceniing  the  arrangement  he  had 
made  with  us.  You  may  find  some  suggestions  in  this  that  you  will  care 
to  make  use  of. 

We  believe  that  we  have  covered  fully  the  plan  as  is  at  present  in 
operation  In  Ohio,  and  should  you  have  any  suggestions  which  you  feel 
win  promote  Its  better  working  out  in  your  State,  we  shall  be  glad  to  en- 
tertain them.  We  believe  we  can  have  this  plan  in  operation  within  a 
week  or  ten  days  after  receiving  a  favorable  report  from  your  Board. 
Very  truly  yours,

FIRST   ANNUAL   REPORT   OF   THE   WORK   OF   THE 
CHEMICAL  DEPARTMENT  OF  THE  LABOR- 
ATORY OF  HYGIENE. 


By  H.  B.  BARNARD,  B.  Sc. 

At  the  opening  of  the  chemical  department  of  the  laboratory 
several  fields  for  investigation  were  waiting,  each  one  of  which 
deserved  inmiediate  attention.  The  public  and  private  water  sup- 
plies of  the  State,  hitherto  unguarded  and  uncontrolled  by  other 
than  local  watchfulness,  were  in  great  need  of  inspection,  and  the 
food  and  drug  laws,  which  had  been  on  the  statute  books  in  one 
form  and  another  for  many  years,  and  which  had  never  been  put 
into  operation  because  of  lack  of  facilities  for  the  necessary  lab- 
oratory work,  were  waiting  enforcement.  The  question  of  pure 
water  is  primarily  one  of  health,  that  of  pure  foods  and  drugs  is 
concerned  both  with  disease  prevention  and  the  suppression  of 
economic  fraud.  The  health  and  wealth  of  citizens  are  each 
equally  to  be  safeguarded. 

The  chemical  laboratories  were,  therefore,  equipped  for  both 
lines  of  work  and  separate  rooms  fitted  up,  one  for  water  and  one 
for  food  and  drug  analysis.  This  division  was  made  necessary 
because  of  the  impossibility  of  making  water  analyses  in  a  labor- 
atory used  for  other  work.  The  division  of  effort  thus  outlined 
has  operated  admirably  in  practice.  The  laboratories,  though 
devoted  to  entirely  different  uses,  are  so  arranged  that  work  can 
be  carried  on  in  each  simultaneously  by  the  same  corps  of  chemists. 

During  the  year  Harry  E.  Bishop,  B.  Sc,  Assistant  Chemist, 
has  had  charge  of  most  of  the  work  of  the  water  laboratory  and  of 
the  department  in  the  absence  of  the  chemist  He  is  a  skilful  and 
resourceful  analyst  and  has  filled  the  position  with  entire  satis- 
faction. Since  the  first  of  January  Norris  Thompson  has  been 
on  the  analytical  force  and  has  done  much  valuable  work  in  con- 
nection with  food  and  drug  analyses.  During  the  summer  months 
Jack  Hinman  assisted  in  the  food  laboratory,  and  although  he  was 
drawing  no  salary  for  his  services  he  did  much  work  that  is  to  be

oommended.  To  Mrs.  E.  T.  Coney,  clerk  of  the  department^  is 
due  much  credit  for  the  conscientious  and  thorough  manner  in 
which  she  has  performed  the  work  of  the  oflSce. 

But  little  attempt  has  been  made  to  enforce  the  food  law 
through  the  courts.  In  November,  ,  several  cases  involving 
the  sale  of  adulterated  milk  were  presented  to  the  Grand  Jury  of 
Clark  County,  but  since  it  was  impossible  to  prove  the  knowing 
violation  of  the  law  necessary  imder  the  present  statute  no  indict- 
ments were  returned.  Milk  cases  were  also  brought  in  a  justice's 
court  in  Terre  Haute,  but  it  was  impossible  to  convict  the  de- 
fendants for  similar  reasons.  In  June  of  this  year  a  number  of 
cases  were  brought  against  dealers  in  meats  in  the  city  of  Indi- 
anapolis who  were  selling  products  preserved  with  antiseptics  in 
violation  of  the  food  laws.  One  case  only  came  to  trial,  that  of 
the  State  vs.  Matzke,  before  the  Criminal  Court  of  Marion 
County.  The  case  involved  the  necessity  of  the  State  proving  the 
drug  employed  to  be  poisonous,  a  fact  well  established  by  elaborate 
investigations  of  the  United  States  Department  of  Agriculture 
and  physiological  experts,  but  not  easily  shown  except  by  expen- 
sive expert  testimony.  The  jury  was  unable  to  agree  as  to  the 
verdict  to  be  rendered  and  no  further  steps  have  been  taken  to  dis- 
pose of  the  case. 

The  experience  gained  in  these  few  cases  is  sufficient  to  show 
the  need  of  some  changes  in  the  present  food  law  that  will  make 
it  possible  to  punish  violations  by  fine  and  imprisonment  when- 
ever such  measures  seem  necessary  to  secure  a  proper  observance 
of  the  law. 

In  the  following  report  is  summarized  the  result  of  a  year's 
work.  Special  studies  have  been  made  of  the  public  water  sup- 
plies, private  supplies,  cistern  and  deep  well  waters  in  the  water 
laboratory,  and  of  many  cases  of  foods  and  drugs  in  the  food  and 
drug  laboratory. 

THE  PUBLIC  WATER  SUPPLY. 

When  this  country  was  entirely  agricultural,  and  the  population 
widely  scattered,  the  family  water  supply  was  of  necessity  the  farm- 
house well ;  but  as  the  crossroads  settlement  grew  to  a  village  and 
with  the  passing  years  attained  a  city's  attributes,  the  well  became

134 

unsafe  and  the  supply  inadequate.  Water  became  more  and  more 
a  necessity;  the  few  gallons  that  sufficed  for  the  daily  needs  of 
the  early  settler  would  no  longer  satisfy  the  householder,  who 
must  have  running  water  in  kitchen  and  bathroom,  sewer  con- 
nections and  lawn  sprinklers.  So  public  water  supplies  were 
sought  and  built  either  by  private  capital  or  public  funds.  Many 
cities  and  towns  built  their  own  water  systems  and  sold  the  serv- 
ice at  cost  to  the  consumer ;  many  other  supplies  were  constructed 
by  companies  or  corporations  looking  for  profitable  investments. 
The  service  has  extended  until  at  present  there  are  but  few  com- 
munities that  do  not  have  a  water  supply.  Fire  protection  alone 
makes  an  adequate  supply  a  necessity  even  where  the  water  is  not 
employed  for  domestic  uses.  With  the  rapid  development  of 
public  water  systems,  there  has  not  always  been  manifested  the 
wisdom  in  a  selection  of  a  source  of  supply  that  is  desirable. 
To  the  early  settler,  water  was  water,  a  fair  conclusion  where  there 
could  be  no  pollution ;  so  it  was  that  the  first  corporations  build- 
ing reservoirs  and  sinking  wells  consulted  primarily  the  cost  of 
installation  and  but  secondarily  the  character  of  the  supply.  That 
policy  did  provide  water-works,  but  as  the  years  have  passed  by, 
one  system  after  another  has  been  abandoned  at  heavy  loss  and 
new  ones  constructed. 

The  water  supply,  furnishing  as  it  does  water  for  drink- 
ing and  domestic  purposes,  becomes  an  important  factor  in 
determining  the  health  of  a  community.  Indeed  it  is  the  most 
important  of  all  the  agents  which  administer  to  healthful 
life.  Certain  diseases  are  largely  water  borne,  particularly 
diseases  of  the  intestinal  tract,  such  as  cholera  and  typhoid  fever, 
and  the  quality  of  water  supplied  to  perhaps  90  per  cent  of  a 
town's  population,  is  of  first  importance.  This  is  realized  more 
and  more  and  the  consumers  today  refuse  to  drink  water  that  a  few 
years  ago  was  used  without  the  slightest  fear.  Whenever  typhoid 
fever  is  reported  in  a  community,  the  water  supply,  whether  it 
be  from  a  well  or  the  public  main,  should  at  once  be  brought  imder 
suspicion.  And  more  than  that,  the  water  supply  should  be  in- 
vestigated before  fever  breaks  out.  It  is  not  enough  to  lock  the 
stable  door  after  the  horse  is  stolen,  though  that  practice  is  the  one 
usually  followed.  Water  supplies  should  be  constant^  subjected 
to  rigid  inspection.     Their  source  should  be  of  known  purity,

and  every  condition  surrounding  the  distribution  of  the  water 
such  that  contamination  is  impossible.  It  is  the  province  of  the 
health  boards  to  control  the  water  supply  of  cities  and  towns. 
Their  powers  in  this  direction  are  almost  unlimited.  The  so- 
called  police  powers  of  common  law  which  give  them  the  author- 
ity to  protect  the  public  health,  authorize  every  action  that  may 
tend  to  prevent  disease. 

A  prominent  feature  of  the  work  of  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene 
is  to  assist  local  health  officers  in  determining  the  character  of  the 
local  water  supplies.  But  before  satisfactory  and  reliable  assist- 
ance can  be  given,  a  thorough  knowledge  of  conditions  is  neces- 
sary, and,  therefore,  one  of  the  first  steps  in  our  work  was  to  ob- 
tain a  full  report  of  the  various  public  supplies  yf  the  State.  In 
order  to  obtain  this  information  the  following  blank  was  sent  to 
every  health  oflScer  and  superintendent  of  water  companies :

REMARKS.    (Here  give  any  facts  or  information  relating  to  the  subject 
not  incorporated  in  above  answers) 


From  the  records  obtained,  the  following  figures  concerning  the 
public  water  supplies  of  the  State  of  Indiana  are  compiled.  One 
hundred  and  forty-one  cities  and  towns  are  provided  with  water 
systems;  84  cities  and  towns  own  their  own  supply;  51  are  under 
the  control  of  private  corporations.  The  ownership  of  six  other 
small  supplies  could  not  be  determined.  Seventy-five  systems  are 
supplied  with  driven  wells;  9  small  systems  employ  dug  wells; 
7,  springs;  8,  flowing  artesian  wells  over  1,200  feet  deep;  29 
supplies  are  obtained  from  rivers,  of  which  the  Ohio  supplies  5 
cities,  the  White  Kiver  and  forks  5,  and  the  Wabash  2.  All  of 
these  river  supplies  receive  sewage  in  large  quantities,  and  but 
three  of  the  systems  depend  upon  filtration  to  purify  the  water. 
It  is  evident  that  this  unsanitary  condition  will  eventually  result 
in  serious  epidemics.  Ten  supplies  are  from  lakes,  Lake  Michigan 
furnishing  the  water  for  four  cities.  All  of  these  cities  empty 
their  sewage  into  the  lake  and  occasionally  complain  that  the 
water  supply  is  polluted.  Ninety-three  of  the  supplies  are  gravity 
systems,  while  41  are  operated  by  direct  pressure  upon  the  mains; 
56  systems  have  standpipes  and  31  reservoirs  as  storage  basins.

137 

Nine  of  the  supplies  are  filtered  either  by  the  slow  sand  filtration 
process  or  after  chemical  treatment.  Nine  of  the  supplies  are 
used  wholly  for  fire  and  hydrant  purposes  and  are  not  used  for 
drinking.  Six  of  the  supplies  are  reported  as  bad,  one  as  some- 
times bad,  and  one  fair.  The  rest  of  the  supplies,  in  the  opinion 
of  the  informers,  are  of  good  quality.  .  One  thousand,  seven  hun- 
dred and  thirty  miles  of  distributing  mains  are  in  use;  1,711  miles 
of  these  are  of  cast  iron  and  19  miles  of  wood.  Eight  hundred 
and  ninety-one  thousand  people  use  the  water  from  public  sup- 
plies for  drinking  purposes,  while  1,757,000  people  are  wholly 
dependent  upon  private  wells  for  their  water ;  or  two-thirds  of  the 
entire  population  of  the  State  depend  upon  the  private  supply, 
while  one-third  uses  public  waters.  A  reasonable  estimate  allows 
one  well  to  every  five  persons.  There  are,  then,  351,000  wells  in 
use  in  this  State,  the  majority  of  which  are  so  located  as  to  be 
liable  to  pollution  by  household  and  by  barnyard  sewage. 

It  is  of  course  impossible  for  the  State  Board  of  Health  to 
examine  all  these  private  wells.  It  can,  however,  exercise  a  rigid 
control  over  the  purity  of  the  141  public  systems  and  as  well, 
through  the  aid  of  local  health  officers,  condemn  annually  a  large 
number  of  the  polluted  private  supplies. 

Of  the  141  supplies  of  the  State  which  furnish  the  water  for 
891,000  inhabitants,  or  33.3  per  cent  of  the  population,  we  have 
been  able  to  obtain  information  as  to  the  sanitary  character  of 
but  41  systems.  It  is  the  desire  of  the  Laboratory  to  develop 
eventually  a  system  of  inspection  that  will  record  at  least  four 
times  a  year  the  sanitary  condition  of  every  public  water  supply  in 
the  State.  In  no  other  way  can  the  public  health  be  safely 
guarded  and  purity  of  the  water  supply  be  assured. 

Three  factors  determine  the  value  of  a  water  supply:  First 
and  of  most  importance  is  freedom  from  disease  germs ;  second, 
the  supply  must  be  so  abundant  that  it  will  furnish  sufficient 
water  to  check  the  most  extensive  fire  ]  and,  third,  it  must  be  of  a 
character  that  adapts  it  for  use  in  domestic  economy,  such  as  for 
toilet  and  laundry  purposes,  and  for  industrial  use  in  boilers  and 
as  wash-water  in  mechanical  operations.  The  water  which  most 
clearly  satisfies  these  requirements  is  a  so-called  surface  water, 
water  which  falls  to  the  groimd  as  rain,  and  flowing  over  unin- 
habited areas,  collects  in  natural  basins  as  lakes  or  rivers.     The 

Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


138 

water  as  it  reaches  the  earth  is  as  pure  as  it  is  found  in  nature. 
As  it  flows  over  the  surface  of  the  ground  it  dissolves  mineral 
matter  from  the  rocks  and  soil  and  takes  up  organic  constituents 
from  decayed  leaves  and  grasses.  When  it  reaches  a  resting  place 
in  a  natural  basin,  all  suspended  particles  are  gradually  precip- 
itated and  the  chemical  action  of  light  and  air  rapidly  oxidizes 
and  destroys  the  dissolved  organic  material  accumulated  in  the 
rush  through  forests,  over  meadows,  stony  pasture  lands  and  cul- 
tivated fields. 

Surface  water  supplies  are  usually  soft  and  palatable,  and 
whenever  properly  protected  against  pollution  furnish  the  safest 
of  potable  waters.  The  water  supplied  New  York,  Boston  and 
Chicago  is  of  this  class. 

When  surface  water  reaches  a  river  it  flows  rapidly  away  from 
its  origin  and  is  exposed  to  all  forms  of  poUtition.  Rivers  have 
wrongly  enough  been  considered  the  sewers  of  industrial  activities 
rather  than  arteries  bearing  the  great  necessity  of  life,  and  they 
are  continually  subject  to  contamination.  They  receive  the  un- 
treated and  unpurified  sewage  of  cities,  and  the  offal  of  manufac- 
ture, so  that  in  an  unpurified  state,  river  water  is  no  longer  to 
be  considered  suitable  for  public  supply.  When  no  other  supply 
is  obtainable  it  is  possible  to  so  purify  a  sewage  laden  stream  that 
it  again  becomes  suitable  for  consumption.  The  process  of  purifi- 
cation removes  disease  germs  as  well,  and  depends  upon  sediment- 
ation, filtration,  nitrification  and  oxidation  of  organic  matter  to  ac- 
complish this.  Some  river  waters  like  the  Ohio  and  Missouri  carry 
large  quantities  of  silt,  silica  in  suspension,  that  it  is  with  great 
difficulty  removed  by  filtration.  If  given  time,  however,  the  silt 
subsides  and  as  it  precipitates  it  carries  down  with  it  most  of  the 
injurious  bacteria,  and  the  water  so  purified  again  becomes  suit- 
able for  use.  Other  waters  are  more  advantageously  treated  by 
allowing  them  to  flow  onto  beds  of  sand  and  gravel  through  which 
they  slowly  percolate.  Gross  impurities  remain  on  the  top  of  the 
filter,  while  organic  matter,  bacteria,  etc.,  passing  slowly  over  the 
surface  of  the  grains  of  sand  as  a  thin  film,  is  subjected  to  the 
action  of  countless  millions  of  so-called  nitrifying  bacteria  and  is 
changed  from  its  organic  to  an  inorganic  and  harmless  state.  The 
slow  sand  filtration  system  of  purification  is  employed  with  much 
Buccees  by  many  cities  of  this  country.    Lawrence,  Mass.,  was  one 

Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


139 

of  the  first  cities  to  adopt  the  system  on  the  heavily  polluted  Mer- 
rimac  Kiver  water.  In  ,  before  the  installation  of  the  filter, 
the  typhoid  death  rate  was  123  per  100,000 ;  after  the  filtration 
system  was  placed  in  use  there  was  a  rapid  decrease  in  the  death 
rat©  until  in    it  was  but  33  per  100,000. 

The  deep  well  supply  is  very  popular  with  many  cities  and  water 
companies.  Deep  well  waters,  that  is,  waters  that  come  from  strata 
lying  in  or  below  an  impervious  layer  of  stone  or  clay,  in  this  State 
the  limestone  formations,  are  not  liable  to  be  contaminated  by  sew- 
age and  are  more  easily  obtained  and  distributed  than  surface 
waters  which  have  to  be  brought  miles  from  their  source  or  purified 
at  great  expense.  Deep  well  waters  are  not  desirable  as  public  sup- 
plies for  several  reasons.  In  the  first  place  the  supply  is  always 
limited.  If  the  watershed  is  large  or  if  the  wells  are  sunk  in  a 
valley  which  conveys  underground  waters  flowing  off  an  extensive 
watershed,  the  supply  may  be  ample.  But  if  the  watershed  is  not 
large,  the  supply  of  water  underlying  it  will  be  limited,  and  no 
number  of  wells  can  obtain  the  necessary  amount  of  water.  It  is 
inevitably  the  case  that  the  deep  well  system  gives  out  as  the 
demand  increases.  Deep  well  waters  are  usually  hard  and  fre- 
quently contain  much  iron.  Hard  waters  are  not  desirable  for 
domestic  or  laundry  purposes,  and  when  used  for  making  steam, 
have  to  be  "broken"  or  softened  before  they  are  suitable  for  use. 
The  deep  well  supplies  now  in  use  in  Indiana  are  for  the  most 
part  furnishing  a  safe  water  at  the  present  time,  and  some  of  the 
systems  are  supplied  with  an  abundance  of  water.  But  as  far  as 
the  majority  of  the  systems  are  concerned,  it  is  inevitable  that 
sooner  or  later  the  supplies  will  prove  inadequate. 

The  composition  of  the  public  waters  of  Indiana,  as  determined 
by  analyses  made  during  the  past  year,  is  illustrated  by  the  fol- 
lowing tables :

In  all,  the  water  from  146  public  supplies  has  been  analyzed, 
and  of  this  number  74  supplies  were  of  good  quality,  43  were  bad, 
and  29  were  of  such  character  that  they  were  classed  as  doubtful. 
Most  of  the  bad  waters  were  taken  from  shallow  or  driven  wells 
located  in  the  public  square  or  by  the  side  of  the  street  where  they 
were  exposed  to  all  sorts  of  pollution.  In  order  to  better  illustrate 
this  point  we  have  made  another  classification  based  on  the  source 
of  the  sample.  Of  the  57  deep  or  subsurface  waters  used  as  public 
supplies,  42  were  entirely  free  from  pollution,  ten  were  classed  as 
bad,  and  five  were  of  doubtful  quality.  Several  of  the  bad  and 
most  of  the  doubtful  waters  were  so  classed  because  of  the  high 
content  of  ammonia,  chlorine,  and  iron  present,  and  not  because 
there  was  any  evidence  of  pollution  by  sewage.  Certain  waters, 
especially  from  the  coal  and  gas  belt,  have  a  high  chlorine  and  am- 
monia content,  which  renders  them  undesirable  for  drinking  or 
dom^tic  use,  although  there  is  no  claim  that  such  waters  are  ca- 
pable of  producing  disease.  Of  the  shallow  or  surface  wells  but 
11  could  be  passed  as  pure,  while  20  were  undoubtedly  bad  and  9 
were  evidently  in  a  transition  stage  from  good  to  bad.  If  we  class 
these  last  wells  as  bad,  a  condition  they  will  doubtless  reach  event- 
ually, we  find  that  but  11  out  of  the  40  shallow  wells  used  as 
public  supplies  were  above  suspicion.  But  6  of  the  18  stream 
supplies  were  pure ;  2  were  undoubtedly  bad  and  10  were  receiv- 
ing sewage  either  directly  or  as  the  runoff  from  cultivated  and  in- 
habited ground.  None  of  the  8  pond  supplies  were  bad,  although 
3  were  of  doubtful  quality.  Of  the  23  springs,  10  were  good,  11 
bad  and  8  of  doubtful  quality.  It  is  not  probable  that  these  bad 
springs  were  true  spring  supplies.  They  were  evidently  waters 
draining  off  inhabited  areas  and  breaking  out  at  some  fault  a 
short  distance  below  the  surface,  rather  than  deep  ground  waters. 

PRIVATE  WATER  SUPPLIES. 

At  least  2,000,000  citizens  of  Indiana  are  dependent  upon  wells 
for  their  water  supply  for  drinking  and  domestic  purposes.  In 
country  districts  no  community  system  is  possible  and  in  many 
small  villages  the  expense  of  installing  a  public  supply  is  as  yet 
sufliciently  prohibitive  to  compel  the  continued  use  of  the  well. 

In  pioneer  days  the  first  desideratum  for  home-making  was  an 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


144 

abundant  supply  of  pure  water,  and  a  flowing  spring  was  quite  as 
attractive  to  the  early  settler  as  fertile  acres.  When  springs  were 
not  found  the  dug  well  supplied  the  family  with  an  abundance  of 
pure  wholesome  water.  Unfortunately  the  conditions  of  early 
days,  when  pumps  were  not  obtainable,  made  it  advantageous  to 
dig  the  well  as  near  the  kitchen  door  or  barnyard  as  possible,  thus 
saving  the  task  of  carrying  water  long  distances  by  hand  or  with 
the  aid  of  the  shoulder  yoke.  The  same  wells  still  supply  later 
generations,  but  instead  of  furnishing  pure  water,  they  now  all 
too  frequently  are  but  pools  of  filtered  sewage,  the  effluents  of  the 
barnyard,  kitchen  sink  or  adjacent  privy,  liable -at  any  time  to 
bring  sickness  to  the  user,  or  an  epidemic  to  the  community. 

It  is  usually  thought  that  if  a  well  is  thirty  feet  from  a  contam- 
inating source  it  is  safe  from  pollution;  that  if,  perchance,  any 
seepage  does  take  place,  the  effluents  will  have  been  made  as  pure 
as  water  from  the  skies,  in  the  mysterious  laboratory  of  the  earth. 
Such  reasoning  has  long  been  proved  false.  If  a  well  is  freely 
used,  so  the  level  of  the  water  is  below  that  of  the  water  in  the 
surrounding  earth,  inflow  wilt  take  place  for  a  distance  of  one 
hundred  feet  laterally,  and  in  the  direction  from  which  the  ground 
water  flows  for  a  much  greater  distance.  Hence,  ordinarily  a 
source  of  filth,  in  order  to  contaminate  a  well,  must  be  within  one 
hundred  feet,  or,  in  extreme  cases,  two  hundred  feet,  except  in 
the  direction  from  which  the  ground  water  flows.  But  this  is  not 
the  whole  truth,  for  the  original  source  of  filth  may  be  much  far- 
ther removed  and  have  gradually  defiled  the  soil  in  the  direction  of 
the  well,  until  it  has  extended  within  its  influence.  Cesspool 
filth  has  been  known  to  seep  through  the  soil  for  a  distance  of  two 
hundred  yards  and  poison  wells. 

In  a  small  rural  village  the  supply  of  water  may  have  been  of 
unexceptionable  quality  for  an  indefinite  time,  but  as  the. place 
grows,  population  becomes  more  dense,  the  ground  water  is  drawn 
on  in  excess  of  the  supply,  the  drainage  area  of  the  well  is  in- 
creased and  the  water  becomes  less  pure,  both  from  this  cause  and 
from  the  increased  amount  of  sewage  returned  to  the  soil,  which  is 
sure  to  be  saturated  with  organic  matter  beyond  its  power  of  oxi- 
dation, and  pollution  of  the  wells  is  inevitable. 

During  the  past  year  we  have  made  a  large  number  of  analyses 
of  water  from  private  wells.    In  many  cases  the  samples  were  not

submitted  for  analyses  until  illness,  usually  typhoid  fever,  aroused 
the  family,  or  more  frequently  the  family  physician,  to  question 
the  purity  of  the  supply.  The  blind  faith  in  the  purity  of  well 
water,  especially  when  it  has  been  used  by  several  generations  of 
the  same  family,  is  one  of  the  chief  reasons  why  typhoid  fever  so 
constantly  ravages  country  districts.  The  honor  of  the  family 
weU  is  held  as  inviolate  as  the  honor  of  the  family  name,  and  any 
hint  or  suggestion  of  possible  impurity  is  met  with  a  laugh  of 
scorn.  We  have  heard  time  and  again  the  statement,  '^My  well 
water  is  the  beet  in  the  county  or  State,''  and  have  foimd  by 
analysis  that  it  was  but  little  better  than  raw  sewage ;  clear  and  cool 
perhaps,  but  nevertheless  reeking  with  the  putrefactive  bacteria 
of  the  privy  vault  and  filthy  hogpen. 

The  condition  of  the  private  well  is  best  illustrated  by  graphic 
representation,  and  the  following  charts  indicate  clearly  the  re- 
sults of  a  year's  work  and  as  well  hint  what  will  have  to  be  done 
before  the  character  of  the  water  used  by  the  country  householder 
is  as  good  as  that  supplied  the  residents  of  cities  and  towns  where 
public  water  systems  are  in  use. 

If  these  charts  are  summarized  we  find  that  492  private  well 
waters  have  been  analyzed,  of  which  236  were  pure,  202  bad  and 
54  of  doubtful  quality.  If  we  class  the  doubtful  waters  as  bad, 
since  they  will  eventually  reach  this  condition,  we  see  that  256, 
or  52  per  cent,  of  the  private  well  supplies  are  of  such  quality  as 
to  be  imsuitable  for  drinking  and  domestic  use.  If  this  figure 
holds  good  throughout  the  State  we  can  readily  see  why  the  ty- 
phoid returns  from  the  country  districts  are  always  high.  Making 
another  classification  based  on  the  source  of  the  waters,  we  find 
that  of  150  deep  well  waters  analyzed  but  25  were  bad,  while  111 
were  of  good  quality.  The  deep  well  is  evidently  a  satisfactory 
private  supply  if  it  is  derived  from  true  secoird  water.  Of  342 
shallow  wells,  177  were  undoubtedly  bad,  125  were  good  and  40 
were  of  doubtful  quality.  It  is  not  surprising  that  many  wells 
are  polluted,  because  the  universal  custom  of  grouping  the  house, 
bam  and  water  supply  within  easy  reach  of  each  other  has  made 
the  well  the  center  of  drainage  area  for  all  household  sewage  and 
farmyard  waste.  Great  numbers  of  these  old  wells  are  still  in 
common  use,  and,  save  where  analysis  has  proven  the  water  to  be 
a  filtered  sewage,  of  good  repute  in  the  community.     The  impor-

tance  of  an  analysis  of  these  well  waters  can  not  be  over  estimated. 
In  some  towns  where  public  sentiment  has  been  aroused,  a 
series  of  analyses  lias  shown  that  hardly  a  single  well  in  the 
thickly  settled  village  was  suitable  for  use,  because  of  the 
presence  of  sewage  effluents.  Where  such  conditions  exist,  and 
our  results  convince  us  that  they  are  by  no  means  uncommon,  a 
water  supply  brought  from  some  uncontaminated  source  becomes 
a  public  necessity. 

TITE    CHEMICAL   ANALYSES    OF   SOME    SO-CALLED 
CISTEKN  WATERS. 

^Vhen  suitable  ground  or  surface  water  is  not  obtainable  the 
collection  and  storage  of  rain  water  is  resorted  to.  In  some  parts 
of  the  world  no  other  water  is  used  for  drinking  purposes.  This 
has  been  the  case  in  the  city  of  New  Orleans  until  continually  re- 
curring epidemics  of  yellow  fever  spread  by  mosquitoes  bred  in 
cisterns  and  water  tanks  forced  the  introduction  of  a  munici- 
pal Water  supply.  Indiana  has  an  abundance  of  both  ground  and 
surface  waters,  but,  since  in  some  cases  the  water  is  not  suitable 
for  use  and  more  particularly  because  of  the  adaptability  of  rain 
water  to  domestic  and  laundry  purposes,  cisterns  are  common  in 
all  parts  of  the  State.  Cistern  water  is  rain  water  collected  from 
a  flat  surface,  usually  a  roof,  and  stored  in  vaults,  generally  under- 
ground but  sometimes  built  in  cellars.  The  character  of  the  water 
is  entirely  dependent  on  the  condition  of  the  roof  which  is  washed 
by  the  rains  and  the  suitability  of  the  storage  reservoir.  The 
roof  of  a  house,  exposed  as  it  is  to  the  dust  from  the  streets, 
excrement  from  birds,  fallen  leaves  and  mossy  growths,  is  not  an 
attractive  nor  sanitary  place  from  which  to  collect  drinking  water, 
and  the  gutters  and  down  pipes  should  be  so  arranged  that  the 
first  water  which  falls  is  not  allowed  to  flow  into  the  cistern.  After 
the  roof  is  well  cleansed  the  subsequent  rainfall  may  reach  the 
cistern  in  a  fair  degree  of  purity. 

A  question  of  first  importance  in  considering  a  rain  water 
supply  is  the  material  out  of  which  the  walls  of  the  storage 
cistern  are  to  be  made.  Slate  and  stone  are  the  most  suitable 
materials  but  are  not  often  available  except  for  small  cisterns. 
Brick  walled  cisterns  lined  with  cement  are  by  far  the  most

us 

common,  and  though  the  hardness  of  the  water  is  somewhat 
increased  by  the  solubility  of  the  lime  salts  in  the  cement, 
they  are  easily  built  and  at  low  cost  and  if  properly  con- 
structed, well  adapted  for  the  purpose.  Tanks  of  wood  make  good 
cisterns  provided  they  are  kept  full,  but  if  there  is  fluctuation  in 
the  water  level,  organic  development  will  occur  and  impart  a  dis- 
agreeable taste  and  odor  to  the  water.  Cement  or  concrete  cisterns 
are  rapidly  coming  into  use  and,  aside  from  increasing  its  hard- 
ness, do  not  injure  the  quality  of  the  water.  Cisterns  so  con- 
structed are  very  desirable  and  are  to  be  preferred  above  all  other 
kinds  where  a  large  volume  of  water  is  to  be  stored.  One  form  of 
cistern  that  is  frequently  built  has  a  partition  wall  across  it  mak- 
ing a  chamber  that  is  filled  with  charcoal  or  other  filtering  mate- 
rial. When  new  this  construction  furnishes  a  water  with  a  less 
pronounced  "cistern"  taste  than  is  obtainable  from  the  ordinary 
form.  This  arrangement  is  not  desirable  because  the  water  is 
simply  strained,  never  purified,  and  the  filter  or  retaining  basin 
rapidly  becomes  filled  with  filth  that  can  not  be  readily  removed. 
The  suitable  location  of  the  cistern  is  of  first  importance  in  de- 
termining the  quality  of  the  water  it  furnishes.  Frequently  it  is 
in  the  back  yard,  exposed  to  drainage  arid  seepage  from  gar- 
bage piles,  accumulated  filth  and  open  privy  vaults.  During  the 
past  year  we  have  analyzed  the  water  from  27  cistern  supplies. 
Of  the  entire  number  we  found  but  13  that  could  be  classed  as 
potable;  in  all  the  other  cases  the  cisterns  had  evidently  received 
water  from  the  surrounding  ground  as  well  as  from  the  roof. 
Several  samples,  notably  numbers  56,  294  and  396  (see  p.  149), 
were  nothing  but  sewage  effluents,  and  were  dangerous  waters  for 
use. 

A  good  cistern  water  should  be  soft,  free  from  sediment  and 
vegetable  growths,  and  its  chemical  composition  should  be  prac- 
tically that  of  rain  water.  It  should  be  free  from  chlorine  and 
nitrates  and  low  in  solids.  The  following  tables  show  the  compo- 
sition of  some  of  the  cistern  waters  analyzed  during  the  past  year 
and  are  suflScient  condemnation  of  the  average  cistern  supply  as 
a  source  of  water  for  drinking  and  domestic  purposes.

THE  INTEKPRETATION  OF  WATER  ANALYSES. 

The  problems  of  the  water  analyst  are  many  and  varied. '  Every 
new  sample  submitted  for  examination  brings  with  it  its  own  pecu- 
liar conditions,  and  must  be  considered,  not  in  relation  to  other 
analyses,  but  as  an  original  study.  The  evidences  of  the  mound 
builders  are  passed  unnoticed  by  the  casual"  observer,  and  an  up- 
turned flint  bears  no  story,  but  the  skilled  eye  and  trained  knowl- 
edge of  the  patient  student  gives  to  each  a  meaning  that  reveals 
the  history  of  prehistoric  days.  Water,  like  clay  and  stone,  bears 
evidence  of  its  previous  history  no  less  intelligible  to  him  who 
can  read  the  records.  To  a  chemist  each  determination  in  the 
course  of  a  water  analysis  has  its  value,  and  the  sum  of  these, 
when  added  to  a  knowledge  of  surroundings,  reveal's  the  purity  or 
the  pollution  of  the  water,  conditions  which  are  so  often  falsely 
interpreted. 

In  the  course  of  our  work  we  are  frequently  asked  to  explain 
the  results  of  our  analyses  and  to  tell  why,  in  the  case  of  two 
analyses  apparently  similar,  ^ve  have  classed  one  supply  as  pure 
and  condemned  the  other  as  polluted.  We  also  meet  with  prej- 
udiced opinion,  born  of  a  mistrust  of  the  chemist's  ability  to  judge 
of  a  water's  purity,  a  condition  of  mind  unfortimately  too  often 
the  result  of  experience  with  some  dabbler  with  test  tubes  who 
made  snap  judgments  based  upon  imperfect  analyses  of  unsuitable 
samples,  or  again  witli  men  who  believe  that  the  less  an  analyst 
knows  about  the  sample  at  hand  the  more  free  from  prejudice  will 
be  his  opinion  concerning  it.  We  even  more  frequently  suffer 
because  of  that  admiration  for  chemical  knowledge  and  belief  in 
chemical  clairvoyance  which  expects  us  to  decide  from  a  sample, 
while  you  wait,  if  a  certain  water  caused  the  death  of  a  person  a 
year  since,  in  a  distant  town,  under  unknown  conditions,  a  mark 
of  appreciation  very  trying  to  a  man  who  knows  his  own  limita- 
tions. Hardly  a  day  passes  but  we  receive  from  some  anxious 
person  or  a  physician  who  should  be  better  informed,  a  vest  pocket 
sample  of  water  or  a  perfume  bottle  containing  traces  of  its  orig- 
inal contents,  whisky  flasks,  catchup  bottles,  piccalilli  jars,  marked 
sample  1  and  sample  2,  and  a  request  for  immediate  examination. 
With  a  view  to  dispelling  some  of  these  illusions  and  placing  the 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


151 

work  of  the  water  laboratory  more  clearly  before  its  patrons  it 
will  be  well  to  discuss  in  imtechnical  phrases  jnst  what  is  meant 
by  water  analysis  and  the  conditions  that  make  it  necessary. 

The  correct  interpretation  of  analytical  results  requires  a  knowl- 
edge of  the  source  of  a  water,  its  surroundings,  geological  horizon 
and  past  history.  Every  water  has  its  own  characteristics.  The 
presence  of  any  given  element  of  its  composition  is  interpreted  ac- 
cording to  the  kind  of  water  under  consideration.  Spring  water 
is,  of  course,  colorless ;  river  water  of  equal  purity  is  probably 
colored  and  turbid ;  pond  water  may  contain  considerable  amounts 
of  organic  vegetable  matter  without  becoming  unusable,  which,  if 
present  in  a  well  water  would  place  it  in  the  polluted  class.  Deep 
well  water  normally  may  contain  large  amounts  of  chlorine,  while^ 
an  equal  amount  in  a  surface  or  dug  well  would  be  a  mark  of  sew- 
age pollution. 

In  the  examination  of  a  water  we  classify  the  substances  found 
in  it  as  mineral  and  organic.  This  distinction  is  not  altogether  a 
permanent  one,  for  the  mineral  and  organic  conditions  are  depend- 
ent on  one  another,  and  in  part  pass  into  each  other.  The  mineral 
constituents  are  usually  potash,  soda,  lime,  magnesia,  iron  and 
alumina,  in  combination  with  chlorine  and  sulphuric,  silicic,  ni- 
tric and  carbonic  acids.  The  organic  constituents  are,  first,  living 
organisms &#; animal  and  vegetable ;  second,  the  products  of  organic 
life,  such  as  albumen,  urea,  tissue,  etc.;  third,  products  of  the 
decomposition  of  organic  matter. 

The  ordinary  methods  of  analysis  determine  the  form  and 
amount  of  these  constituents  at  the  time  the  water  is  analyzed. 
It  is  usually  not  necessary  to  determine  the  mineral  constituents, 
but  only  those  factors  which  are  influenced  by  the  presence  of  sew- 
age or  contaminating  material.  Sewage  is  very  rich  in  organic 
matter,  chlorine  and  solids,  and  so  a  determination  of  these  com- 
ponents will  give  us  the  information  we  desire.  The  organic  mat- 
ter contains  large  amounts  of  nitrogen,  which  analytical  processes 
enable  us  to  determine  with  great  accuracy  in  four  forms,  najnely, 
as  organic  nitrogen,  as  ammonia,  as  nitrous  acid  and  as  nitric 
acid.  This  order  represents  the  order  of  change  from  organic 
nitrogen  to  its  most  highly  oxidized  condition.  If  we  find  am- 
monia present  in  the  last  form,  that  is,  as  nitric  acid,  we  know  that 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


152 

whatever  organic  matter  was  present  has  heen  oxidized  or  de- 
stroyed, and  the  source  of  danger  removed;  but  if  we  find  much 
ammonia  or  nitrous  acid  present  we  see  that  oxidation  is  not  com- 
plete, a  proof  that  the  source  of  pollution  is  not  far  from  the  sup- 
ply, and  therefore  the  water  must  be  regarded  as  unwholesome^ 

It  must  be  understood  that  the  various  constituents  determined 
in  a  water  analysis  are  not  of  themselves  injurious ;  they  are  but 
indexes  of  pollution,  and  the  factors  found  are  valuable  only  as 
they  are  comparable  with  factors  predetermined  on  a  water  of 
known  purity  of  the  same  class.  That  this  important  fact  may  be 
&#;perfectly  understood,  below  are  given  detailed  analyses  of  both 
good  and  bad  waters  of  several  classes :

In  every  analysis  given  above  the  polluted  samples  were  of 
better  appearance  than  the  pure  waters,  and  when  subjected  to 
ordinary  physical  examination  would  have  been  accepted  as  pure. 
The  high  ammonia,  nitrate,  nitrite  and  chlorine  factors  obtained 
showed  that  on  the  contrary  the  supplies  were  heavily  polluted 
with  sewage  and  absolutely  unfit  for  drinking  or  domestic  use. 

Bacteriological  examinations,  that  is,  the  determination  of  the 
number  and  kind  of  bacteria  present  in  water,  are  necessary  in 
many  cases,  but  a  single  bacterial  analysis  is  so  subject  to  experi- 
mental error  that  the  results  obtained  are  of  small  value.  For  the 
purpose  of  judging  the  efficiency  of  filter  beds  and  water  purifica- 
tion systems,  bacterial  tests  are  most  valuable;  the  filtered  water 
may  be  changed  but  little  from  raw  water  so  far  as  chemical  analy- 
sis can  determine,  and  yet  bacterial*  tests  may  show  that  a  source 
of  danger  is  largely  or  entirely  removed.  Clark  and  Gage  say:* 
"In  the  examination  of  samples  of  spring  water  collected  in  the 


*Am.  Pub.  H«alth  Ann.  Report,  Vol.  xxii. 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


154 

proper  manner  the  degree  of  purity  is  shown  almost  absolutely  by 
chemical  analysis.  The  complete  analyses  of  samples  from  a  large 
number  of  domestic  wells  show  that  polluted  waters  that  might 
become  unfit  for  consumption  at  any  moment  are  more  plainly  in- 
dicated by  a  single  chemical  analysis  than  by  a  single  determina- 
tion of  B.  CoM.  The  presence  of  B.  Coli  at  the  time  of  examina- 
tion may  indicate  actual  danger  to  health,  and  its  absence  even 
in  the  most  polluted  of  these  waters,  chemically,  may  indicate 
lack  of  imminent  danger,  but  the  chemical  analyses  are  certainly 
the  most  decisive." 

Water  analyses  are  desirable  whenever  the  supply  is  subjected  to 
probable  pollution  because  of  unfavorable  location,  or  when  sick- 
ness occurs  of  a  type  usually  communicated  in  a  water  supply. 
We  receive  many  samples  for  analysis  collected  from  sources 
known  to  be  polluted.  Such  examinations  are  unnecessary.  It 
does  not  need  extensive  chemical  analyses  and  a  dozen  plate  cul- 
tures to  prove  the  presence  of  filth  in  a  stream  that  is  used  as  a 
sewer  for  a  city,  nor  is  it  necessary  to  waste  time  over  the  water 
from  a  dug  well  that  by  reason  of  its  location  must  be  a  cesspool 
for  household  wastes  or  barnyard  washings.

WATER  SUPPLY  OF  INDIANA, 


ADAMS  COUNTY. 

Berne. &#; No  public  supply.  Water  is  obtained  from  private 
wells  and  cisterns.  The  town  is  located  directly  on  the  Mississippi 
and  St.  Lawrence  watershed. 

Geneva. &#; This  town  is  supplied  for  the  most  part  by  private 
wells.  Most  of  the  wells  are  driven ;  two  or  three  open  wells.  A 
few  cisterns  are  in  use. 

ALLEN  COUNTY. 

Fort  Wayne. &#; This  city  has  its  own  water  supply,  built  in  . 
The  water  comes  from  wells  bored  60  to  150  feet  through  soil, 
gravel,  sand,  blue  clay,  hardpan  into  rock.  It  is  pumped  into  a 
reservoir  that  has  a  capacity  of  3,000,000  gallons.  The  water  is 
hard  and  at  times  has  a  metallic  taste.  There  are  100  miles  of 
distributing  mains  in  use,  and  the  service  pipes  are  lead.  About 
3,500,000  gallons  are  used  daily  by  about  90  per  cent  of  the  popu- 
lation.   There  are  about  10,000  taps. 

Monroeville. &#; Water  supply  is  from  private  wells. 

BARTHOLOMEW  COUNTY. 

Columbus. &#; The  water  system  is  owned  by  the  city  and  was 
built  in  .  The  water  is  taken  from  East  Fork  of  White 
River  just  below  the  junction  of  Flat  Rock  and  Driftwood  Fork. 
The  water  is  obtained  from  a  gallery  well  which  extends  diag- 
onally across  the  river.  Sewage  enters  the  river  a  short  distance 
below  the  intake  of  the  water  supply.  The  supply  is  insufficient 
and  must  soon  be  increased.  The  water  is  moderately  hard  and 
flows  through  twenty  miles  of  cast  iron  mains.  The  service  pipes 
are  of  wrought  iron.  There  are  about  2,500,000  gallons  used 
daily  by  about  890  families.  Very  few  families  use  the  water  for 
drinking  or  domestic  purposes,  getting  the  water  for  that  purpose 
from  private  wells.

BROWN  COUNTY. 

Nashville. &#; The  water  supply  is  altogether  from  wells,  mostly

is  sandy,  with  a  gravel  subsoil  and  underlying  strata  of  clay. 

CARROLL  COUNTY. 

Delphi. &#; The  city  purchased  their  supply  in  .  It  comes 
from  three  springs  flowing  from  gravel,  underlying  strata  and  blue 
clay.  The  water  runs  to  the  reservoir  by  gravity  and  from  there 
is  pumped  to  the  standpipe,  which  holds  27,000  gallons.  The 
reservoir  is  60  feet  in  diameter  and  14  feet  deep,  with  a  capacity 
of  350,000  gallons.  There  are  4f  miles  of  mains.  Wooden  pipes 
are  used  to  reservoir  and  the  rest  are  iron,  with  lead  and  iron  serv- 
ice pipes.  Four  hundred  and  twenty-five  families,  or  about  85 
per  cent.,  used  about  250,000  gallons  daily.  The  water  has  been 
analyzed. 

Flora. &#; Springs  and  wells  furnish  the  water  supply.  Some

Jeffersonville. &#; The  Jeffersonville  Water  Supply  Co.  furnishes 
the  water  for  this  city.  This  was  built  in    by  S.  E.  Bullock 
&  Co.,  and  the  w^ter  is  taken  from  the  Ohio  River.  The  water 
receives  a  large  amount  of  sewage  or  waste,  mostly  from  a  dis- 
tance, the  nearest  point  being  the  city  of  Madison,  50  miles  above. 
A  standpipe  15  feet  in  diameter  and  150  feet  in  height  has  the 
water  pumped  into  it  The  water  is  soft.  There  are  12  miles  of 
cast  iron  mains,  galvanized  iron  being  used  for  the  service  pip^s. 
Twenty-five  per  cent,  or  600  families,  use  daily  about  1,000,000 
gallons.  The  Water  Company  is  installing  a  water  supply  system 
from  driven  wells,  the  quality  of  which  is  excellent 

Sellersburg. &#; Wells  and  cisterns  furnish  the  supply  for  Sellers- 
burg.  Some  of  the  wells  are  from  12  to  35  feet  in  depth,  and  are 
through  clay,  subsoil,  slate,  cement  rock  and  limestone.  Some  few 
wells  pass  into  aand  and  gravel.  Much  of  the  water  is  of  inferior 
quality,  and  little  else  than  surface  water. 

CLAY  COUNTY. 


Brazil. &#; This  city  owns  a  public  water  supply  of  drilled  wells, 
but  when  there  is  a  fire  the  water  has  to  be  pumped  from  a  mud 
pond.  The  inhabitants  on  the  watershed  number  about  1,000,  and 
the  land  is  cleared.  The  water  is  hard  and  is  pumped  direct  in 
cast  iron  mains,  with  lead  and  iron  service  pipes.  About  500,000 
gallons  are  used  daily,  but  is  not  used  for  domestic  purposes  ex- 
cept after  boiling,  as  most  of  the  drinking  water  is  obtained  from 
private  wells.  The  city  is  putting  in  more  drilled  wells  and  ex- 
pects soon  to  have  sufficient  water  from  this  source  to  serve  all 
purposes. 

Bowling  Green. &#; Supply  from  dug  wells. 

Carbon. &#; Supply  is  from  wells.    Water  is  of  good  quality. 

Center  Point. &#; Water  supply  from  wells  driven  and  dug ;  depth 
from  16  to  60  feet  through  soil,  yellow  clay  1^2  to  2  feet,  subsoil, 
white  clay,  blue  clay,  black  jack,  slate  and  coal.  The  water  at 
times  has  a  mineral,  sulphur,  sweetish  and  vegetable  taste  and  is 
very  hard  as  a  rule.  The  supply  is  not  the  best  in  the  shallow 
wells. 

Clay  City. &#; Families  have  own  wells,  dug  through  clay  and  sub- 
soil with  an  underlying  strata  of  rock  and  coal.

Staunton. &#; The  water  used  in  Staunton  is  from  private  wells 
usually  about  17  feet  deep.  Probably  80  per  cent  of  these  wells 
go  dry  one  or  more  times  a  year.  Water  is  good  when  supply  is 
plentiful. 

CLINTON  COUNTY. 

Colfax. &#; All  private  wells.  Some  are  driven,  and  range  from 
27  feet  to  more  than  100  feet  deep.  Dug  wells  are  different 
depths,  some  not  more  than  12  feet 

Frankfort &#; The  Frankfort  Water  Works  Co.  supplies  this  city 
with  water  from  driven  wells.  The  wells  are  86  feet  in  depth, 
through  20  feet  of  an  impervious  blue  clay  into  a  gravel  strata 
from  which  water  is  taken  at  30  feet.  The  reservoir  is  20  feet 
deep  and  covered  and  is  filled  by  direct  pressure.  Capacity 
300,000  gallons.  The  water  is  hard  and  about  five  years  ago 
became  unpleasant  to  taste  or  smell.  There  are  16  miles  of  mains 
of  wrought  iron  laid  and  lined  with  cement,  and  the  service  pipes 
are  galvanized  iron.  There  are  1,650  connections  with  mains, 
and  75  per  cent  of  the  people  use  this  water.  The  daily  consump- 
tion is  about  1,000,000  gallons. 

Kirklin. &#; ^No  water  supply  but  private  wells. 

Michigantown. &#; ^Private  wells  bored,  driven  or  dug  from  10  to 
50  feet  deep. 

Rossville. &#; Both  dug  and  driven  private  wells  furnish  this 
water  supply.  The  greatest  menace  to  health  is  a  number  of  false 
wells  dug  in  the  bottom  of  cellars  for  purpose  of  drainage.  Many 
of  them  reach  down  to  the  strata  of  sand  from  which  the  private 
wells  get  their  water.

size  60x80x10.  This  plant  was  established  in  .  The  well  is 
77  feet  deep  through  sand  and  gravel.  There  is  a  bad  taste  oc- 
casionally caused  by  decayed  leaves  that  have  blown  in  the  reser- 
voir. There  are  7,140  feet  of  cast  iron  mains  and  galvanized  iron 
service  pipes ;  2,700  gallons  are  used  daily,  and  10  per  cent,  or

underlying  strata  is  gravel.    The  water  is  hard. 

Montgomery. &#; There  are  two  public  wells  20  to  25  feet  in 
depth.  As  this  is  very  shallow  there  is  no  way  of  accounting  for 
the  Tack  of  typhoid  fever.  One  well  most  used  is  within  three  feet 
of  an  uncemented  street  drainage  pipe.  The  private  wells  are 
dug  from  15  to  40  feet  deep,  but  generally  they  are  20  to  25  feet

iron  with  galvanized  iron  service  pipes.  About  20,000  gallons 
are  used  per  day,  but  only  a  few  of  the  people  use  the  water, 
about  20  families,  or  1  per  cent,  of  the  population. 

DELAWARE  COUNTY. 

Albany. &#; Six  years  ago  the  Albany  Water  &  Light  Co.,  using 
a  system  of  drilled  wells,  began  supplying  the  city  of  Albany 
with  water.  The  wells  are  drilled  165  feet,  and  the  water  is  sup- 
plied by  direct  pressure.  About  five  miles  of  cast  iron  pipe  dis- 
tribute the  water.  The  service  pipes  are  of  cast  iron,  and  75  per 
cent,  of  the  population  use  this  supply. 

Eaton. &#; About  a  dozen  families  in  Eaton  are  supplied  with 
water  piped  from  a  deep  well.  This  water  is  pumped  into  an  ele- 
vated tank  by  a  gas  engine.  Private  wells  supply  the  rest  of  the 
town. 

Muncie. &#; Muncie  is  supplied  with  water  by  the  Muncie  Water 
Works  Co.,  a  private  concern.  The  water  is  taken  from  deep 
wells  and  White  River  and  Buck  Creek.  The  watershed  of  Buck 
Creek  is  15  square  miles.  In  the  summer  there  are  frequently 
picnic  parties  along  White  River  above  the  intake.  Each  stream 
at  point  of  intake  has  an  inflow  of  5,000,000  gallons  daily.  There 
is  no  waste  or  sewage  received  in  the  stream  other  than  that  from 
the  oil  wells,  and  that  is  equal  to  15  per  cent  of  the  flow  of  the 
stream  at  low  water.  The  wells  are  drilled  about  100  feet  and 
the  supply  comes  from  rock.  The  water  is  pumped  direct  into 
the  mains,  which  are  of  cast  iron.  Wrought  iron  and  lead  are 
used  for  the  service  pipes.  The  water  from  White  River  has  an 
unpleasant  taste  of  salt  and  oil.  About  3,500,000  gallons  are  used 
daily.  An  auxiliary  pump  house  has  now  been  erected  on  Buck 
Creek  and  line  run  to  filter  plant  at  main  pumping  station  to  de- 
liver water  to  filter,  from  which  it  is  pumped  to  consumers.

6  feet  deep,  with  a  mud  bottom.  The  watershed  is  about  500 
acres  in  extent,  and  is  partly  wooded  and  partly  cleared,  with 
about  20  inhabitants  thereon.  The  water  is  pumped  from  the 
pond  into  a  standpipe  that  has  a  capacity  of  125,000  gallons.  At 
times  the  water  develops  an  implcasant  odor  and  taste  as  of  decay- 
ing vegetable  matter.  This  water  is  soft.  Four  and  one-half 
miles  of  mains  are  used,  and  these  are  made  of  iron  with  galvan- 
ized iron  service  pipes,  166,664  gallons  of  water  being  used  daily, 
and  about  600  families,  or  75  per  cent,  use  the  water.  The  city 
is  building  a  new  pond  or  lake  in  addition  to  the  present  one, 
which  will  have  an  average  depth  of  20  feot,  and  cover  from  40  to 
50  acres.  The  watershed  will  be  the  same  as  the  old  pond,  the 
new  one  being  immediately  below  the  old.  The  old  pond  will  be 
used  as  a  catch  basin. 

Jasper. &#; -The  town  of  Jasper  built  its  water  supply  about  10 
years  ago  and  uses  the  water  from  the  Patoka  river.  The  water 
is  pumped  into  a  reservoir,  and  from  there  flows  through  about 
four  or  five  miles  of  distributing  mains  or  iron.  One  thousand 
families  use  this  supply.  The  water  is  soft  In  the  spring  the 
water  is  not  clear,  but  otherwise  is  fine  water.  There  are  two 
reservoirs  in  Jasper,  but  only  one  is  in  use. 

ELKHART  COUNTY. 

Bristol. &#; There  is  no  public  supply  in  Bristol. 

Elkhart. &#; The  Elkhart  Water  Company,  a  corporation  mainly 
owned  by  Chicago  capitaMsts,  was  built  in  .  This  supply 
consists  of  five  dug  wells  34  feet  i;n  depth,  in  gravel  mostly.  The 
water  is  medium  soft  and  gets  yellow  after  a  fire.  The  mains  are 
of  iron  and  the  service  pipes  lead.  About  two-thirds  of  the  popu- 
lation use  the  water. 

Goshen. &#; In    the  city  of  Goshen  built  a  public  supply. 
There  are  two  open  wells  40  feet  in  diameter  and  35  feet  deep, 
with  a  sand  bottom,  and  this  water  is  pumped  to  a  standpipe.  The 
water  has  an  irony  taste.  About  27  miles  of  distributing  iron 
mains  with  iron  and  lead  service  pipes  are  in  use.  About  3,000,- 
000  gallons  are  consumed  daily.  Probably  only  100  families  use 
the  water,-  as  wells  are  plentiful  and  that  water  is  used.  The 
public  supply  is  good.

water  is  pumped  into  a  tank  20  feet  in  diameter  and  24  feet  deep, 
with  a  capacity  of  75,000  gallons;  from  this  the  water  flows 
through  six  miles  of  iron  mains.  Very  often  an  unpleasant  odor 
and  taste  develops.  About  300  families,  or  50  per  cent,  of  the 
people,  use  the  water,  and  there  are  200,000  gallons  used  daily. 
There  are  also  many  private  wells  in  use. 

Middlebury. &#; There  is  no  regular  public  water  system  in  this

fed  by  the  west  fork  of  Whitewater  river  and  is  pumped  from 
the  canal  into  the  city  mains.  The  watershed  qonsists  of  250,000 
acres,  partly  wooded,  partly  cleared  and  having  about  6,000  in- 
habitants thereon.  The  flow  of  the  stream  is  about  5,000,000 
gallons  daily.  The  water  at  times  develops  an  odor  of  decaying 
mosses  and  grasses  and  is  soft.  Fifteen  to  eighteen  miles  of  dis- 
tributing mains  are  in  use.  These  are  of  iron,  with  lead  and  iron 
service  pipes.  The  supply  is  ample  for  fire  purposes,  but  is  not 
good  for  drinking  purposes,  and  nearly  all  the  people  use  well 
water  for  domestic  supply.  About  1,000,000  gallons  per  day  of 
the  city  water  is  used.

the  same.  This  well  is  20  feet  deep  and  16  feet  wide,  and  dug  in 
a  gravel  bed.  It  is  walled  with  an  18-inch  wall  of  hard  brick  laid 
in.  cement,  gravel  bottom.  The  water  ordinarily  stands  about  10 
feet  in  the  well,  but  with  the  pump  running  continuously  the 
water  stands  about  four  feet  in  the  well.  It  is  pumped  to  a  stand- 
pipe  having  a  capacity  of  42,500  gallons.  Water  is  hard.  Four- 
inch,  6-inch,  8-inch  and  10-inch  glazed  iron  pipes  are  used  for  the 
four  and  a  half  miles  of  distributing  mains;  galvanized  iron  is 
used  for  service  pipes.  The  supply  is  used  by  125  families,  or 
about  33  per  cent,  of  the  population,  and  169,205  gallons  are 
consumed  daily.

Hammond.; &#; ^Hammond  owns  its  own  public  Biipply,  which  was 
built  in    by  the  Lake  Water  Co.  The  source  of  the  supply  is 
Lake  Michigan.  The  lake  receives  sewage,  etc.,  from  South  Chi- 
cago, HI.  The  water  is  pumped  direct  from  the  lake  into  the 
mains,  of  which  there  are  from  65  to  67  miles.  There  is  an  odor 
and  taste  of  petroleum  from  the  Standard  Oil  Co.  at  Whiting. 
The  mains  and  service  pipes  are  of  iron.  The  entire  population 
Tises  this  supply  and  about  6,000,000  gallons  per  day  aie  con- 
sumed. 

Hobart &#; The  supply  of  Hobart  is  from  wells  which  were  built 
by  John  P.  Dales.  These  wells  are  dug  and  driven  through  sub- 
soil, and  the  water  is  pumped  to  a  standpipe.  There  are  four 
miles  of  cast  iron  mains,  8-inch,  6-inch  and  4-inch,  and  115  famil- 
ies use  the  supply,  or  35  per  cent  of  the  population.  Twenty-two 
thousand  gallons  per  day  are  used.  The  standpipe  holds  56,000 
gallons. 

Lowell. &#; ^Lowell  owns  an  8-inch  bored  well  187  feet  deep,  which 
was  built  for  the  town  in    by  the  John  P.  Dales  Co.,  of  Chi- 
cago. The  well  is  bored  80  feet  through  solid  rock,  and  the  water 
rises  to  within  five  feet  of  the  surface.  The  capacity  of  the  lift 
pump  is  500,000  gallons  per  day.  This  water  is  pumped  to  a 
standpipe  100  feet  high  and  20  feet  in  diameter  with  a  capacity 
of  80,000  gallons.  At  times  the  water  develops  an  unpleasant 
odor  and  taste.  The  supply  is  soft  Cast  iron  mains  four  miles 
in  extent  and  of  4-inch,.  6-inch  and  8-inch  pipe  distribute  the 
water.  The  service  pipes  are  %-inch  gas  pipe.  Two  hundred  and 
forty  families,  or  70  per  cent,  use  the  supply. 

Whiting. &#; The  Standard  Oil  Co.  built  a  plant  at  Whiting  about 
15  years  ago,  and  still  own  it  The  water  is  taken  from  Lake 
Michigan  and  is  supplied  by  direct  pressure.  Occasionally  the 
water  develops  an  oily  taste.  Ten  miles  of  mains  are  used,  these 
and  the  service  pipes  both  being  of  iron.  The  entire  population, 
probably  from  1,000  to  1,200  people,  use  the  supply,  and  from 
500,000  to  1,000,000  gallons  per  day  are  used. 

LAPOBTB  COUNTY. 

Laporte. &#; ^In    the  city  of  Laporte  built  its  public  water 
supply.  The  water  is  obtained  from  Pine  and  Stone  lakes  with  a 
large  well  and  pumps  five  miles  east  in  Little  Kankakee  bottom.

The  area  of  the  two  lakes  is  about  one  and  a  half  square  miles, 
depth  of  the  lakes  is  estimated  at  12  feet,  with  places  50  feet 
deep,  sandy  bottom  mostly.  The  watershed  area  is  about  four 
square  miles,  one-fourth  wooded  and  three-fourths  cleared,  with 
400  inhabitants  thereon.  There  are  many  summer  cottages  on 
these  lakes  and  picnic  parties  are  held  there  often.  The  well  of 
the  Little  Kankakee  is  sunk  at  the  foot  of  the  eastern  slope,  upon 
the  marsh,  and  is  of  brick.  It  is  30  feet  in  diameter,  25  feet  deep 
and  is  covered.  The  bottom  is  sand.  This  is  pumped  by  electric- 
ity, which  is  generated  at  the  pumping  station  at  Laporte.  The 
water  is  distributed  from  the  reservoir  by  Nordyke  pumps.  The 
reservoir  is  part  of  Lily  Lake  fenced  off  and  is  about  60  feet  in 
diameter  and  five  feet  deep.  The  water  is  hard  and  the  water 
from  the  well  has  considerable  mineral  salts  in  it  Cast  iron 
is  used  for  the  mains  and  wrought  iron  for  the  service  pipes. 
One  million  gallons  a  day  are  consumed,  and  about  50  per  cent 
of  the  population  use  the  water,  but  it  is  not  used  for  drinking  or 
domestic  purposes  as  that  supply  is  all  from  private  wells. 

Michigan  City. &#; The  Michigan  City  Water  Co.  was  established 
in    and  the  city  now  controls  it  and  owns  most  of  the  stock. 
The  state  also  has  a  water  plant  for  supplying  the  State  Prison. 
The  water  is  taken  from  Lake  Michigan,  and  is  supplied  by  di- 
rect pressure.  At  times  the  water  develops  an  unpleasant  odor 
and  taste.  It  is  soft,  and  there  are  18  miles  of  jAains  used. 
These  are  of  cast  iron,  and  the  service  pipes  are  iron  and  lead. 
About  1,300  families,  or  25  per  cent,  of  the  population,  use  the 
supply,  and  2.700,000  gallons  per  day  are  consumed.  There  are 
many  private  wells  used,  these  varying  from  15  to  50  feet  The 
intake  is  at  a  depth  of  about  42  feet,  not  entirely  belo^  the  depth 
of  driftwood.  It  is  also  at  the  distance  from  the  shore  where  slush 
ice  is  common  and  often  the  current  takes  the  sewage  from  the 
city  at  least  into  the  neighborhood  of  the  intake.  But  when  the 
conditions  are  such  as  were  evidently  contemplated  when  the 
plant  was  built,  pure  water  is  obtained. 

Westville. &#; No  public  water  supply. 

LAWRKNCB  COUNTY. 

Bedford. &#; This  city  owns  its  water  plant,  which  was  built  in

The  water  is  soft  and  there  are  10  miles  of  distributing  maina. 
These  mains  are  of  cast  and  wrought  iron  and  the  service  pipes 
are  galvanized  iron.  Four  hundred  families,  or  25  per  cent,  use 
the  water,  and  1,500,000  gallons  daily  are  .consumed.  The  water 
is  not  filtered  and  is  not  used  for  drinking  purposes  except  by  very 
few.    Private  wells  furnish  most  of  the  drinking  water.

MADISON  COUNTY. 

Alexandria. &#; In    the  Segner  Contracting  Co.  built  a  sys- 
tem of  wells  for  Alexandria.  These  wells  are  drilled  300  to  900 
feet  deep,  and  one  is  a  flowing  well,  which  is  connected  with  the 
pumping  station  by  common  iron  pipe,  but  it  is  to  be  replaced 
with  wood  pipes.  The  water  is  pumped  to  a  standpipe  with  a 
capacity  of  235,000  gallons.  The  water  is  hard  and  at  times  has 
a  slight  taste  of  iron.  About  four  and  a  half  miles  of  cast  iron 
distributing  mains  are  used,  with  galvanized  wrought  iron  service 
pipes.  About  800  families  use  this  supply  and  the  average  daily 
.consumption  is  500,000  gallons.  There  are  also  many  private 
wells. 

Anderson. &#; ^Illeven  or  twelve  years  ago  the  city  of  Anderson 
built  a  public  water  supply,  which  gets  its  water  from  White  Kiver. 
This  stream  is  very  variable,  volume  indefinite,  slow  current,  shal- 
low; no  sewage  goes  in  the  stream  withiij  three  miles  above  the 
intake  of  the  supply  at  present.  The  water  is  supplied  by  direct 
pressure  from  clear  well.  There  are  thirty-one  miles  of  distrib- 
uting mains  of  standard  cast  iron  with  lead  and  galvanized  iron 
service  pipes.  About  2,100  taps  are  used,  or  about  50  per  cent 
of  the  people  use  the  water,  and  the  average  amount  used  daily 
is  2,000,000  gallons.  There  are  also  many  private  wells.  A  me- 
chanical filter  plant  has  been  installed  recently  and  is  doing  good 
work.  During  hot  weather  a  grassy  odor  was  noticeable  in  the 
raw  river  water,  but  is  not  in  the  filtered. 

Elwood. &#; The  Elwood  Water  Co.,  a  private  company,  built  in 
,  furnishes  Elwood  with  its  public  water  supply.  The  sys- 
tem is  one  of  driven  wells  ranging  from  100  to  175  feet  in  depth 
imd  furnishing  from  15,000  to  20,000  gallons  per  day.     The  soil

The  water  is  pumped  into  the  mains  except  in  case  of  fire,  when 
water  from  a  reservoir  is  forced  into  the  mains.  At  some  of  the 
hydrants  there  is  a  musty.odor.  Iron  mains  are  used  17  miles  in 
extent  and  iron  and  lead  service  pipes  are  used.  Seven  hundred 
or  800  families^  or  five  or  six  per  cent  of  the  population,  use  the 
supply  and  about  100,000  gallons  per  day  are  consumed.  Many 
private  wells  are  used,  these  generally  being  shallow  or  from  10  to 
20  feet  in  depth.

providing  a  large  storage  reservoir.  This  reservoir  or  lake  is 
largely  frequented  by  visitors  and  during  the  sunmier  season  thou- 
sands visit  the  park  along  its  shores  each  day.  Canoeing  and  boat- 
ing is  not  pitohibited  and  all  waste  from  the  adjacent  park  flows 
into  the  river:  The  stream  also  receives  sewage  in  large  quanti- 
ties from  above  the  intake.  The  average  depth  of  the  wells  is  300 
feet,  capacity  18,000,000  gallons  every  24  hours;  and  the  capacity 
of  the  filtration  system  is  24,000,000  gallons  per  24  hours.  The

NOBLE  COUNTY. 

Albion. &#; ^In    this  town  had  Olds,  of  Ft  Wayne,  build  for 
it  a  system  of  driven  wells.  These  weUs  are  97  feet  deep  and  are 
driven  through  soil,  black  loam,  subsoil,  blue  clay;  underlying 
strata,  gravel.  The  water  is  pumped  by  direct  pressure  and  is 
hard.  Iron  pipes  are  used  for  the  mains  and  service  pipes  and 
about  eight  miles  of  distributing  mains  are  in  use.  Two  hundred 
and  fifty  families,  or  60  per  cent  of  the  population,  use  this  sup- 
ply, and  about  50,000  gallons  daily  are  used. 

Avilla. &#; ^Avilla  owns  its  own  water  supply,  which  it 
built  some  time  ago ;  this  consists  of  a  drilled  well  100  feet  deep, 
the  water  from  which  is  pumped  to  a  reservoir  18  feet  high  by  18 
feet  in  diameter.  The  watershed  is  1^  square  mites  cleared  and 
with  750  inhabitants.  The  supply  is  slightly  hard  and  fiows 
through  1%  miles  of  distributing  mains.  These  mains  are  of  4- 
inch  iron  pipes  with  %-inch  galvanized  iron  service  pipes.  Sev- 
enty-five families  use  the  water,  and  an  average  of  500  gallons 
daily  is  used.     Boied  wells  owned  by  the  people  are  also  used.     &#; 

Ligonier. &#; Sixteen  years  ago  Ligonier  built  a  public  water  sup- 
ply, and  in    and    a  new  plant  was  installed.  This  sup- 
ply is  of  driven  wells,  four  in  number,  65  feet,  126  feet,  82  feet 
and  92  feet  in  depth.  These  wells  are  driven  through  upper  soil, 
sand  and  gravel,  10  feet  deep,  blue  clay  about  30  feet  deep,  then 
water  gravel.  About  170  feet  is  sandstone  and  beyond  that  fine 
sheet  water.  The  water  is  pumped  to  a  tank  that  holds  100,000 
gallons.  Cast  iron  is  used  for  the  distributing  mains,  and  gal- 
vanized wrought  iron  is  used  for  service  pipes.  Nine  miles  of 
mains  are  used  to  distribute  the  water,  and  350  taps  are  used,  or 
about  50  per  cent  of  the  people  use  the  supply,  and  an  average  of 
200,000  gallons  per  day  is  used.

families,  or  50  per  cent,  use  25,000  gallons  per  day.  The  Secre- 
tary of  the  Board  of  Health  reports  that  the  water  at  times  de- 
velops a  very  bad  odor,  and  that  the  reservoir  is  nothing  but  a

waste  and  sewage  from  all  factories  and  cities  on  both  forks 
above  the  intake  in  very  large  quantities.  This  water  is  pumped 
to  a  standpipe  which  holds  120,000  gallons.  There  is  both  an 
unpleasant  odor,  musty,  and  a  bad  taste.  Five  and  a  half  miles  of 
mains  are  used,  these  being,  of  cast  iron  with  galvanized  service 
pipes.  One  hundred  families,  or  20  per  cent  of  the  population,

supply  for  this  city.  At  present  it  is  the  property  of  a  private  com- 
pany, but  as  soon  as  the  city  pays  off  the  bonds  against  it,  it  will 
become  the  property  of  Valparaiso.  The  plaiit  was  built  in   
by  the  Henry  B.  Smith  Co.,  of  Bay  City,  Mich.  The  water  is 
taken  from  a  lake  two  square  miles  in  area  and  25  feet  deep,  with 
loamy  bottom.  The  watershed  is  eight  square  miles  in  area,  with 
50  inhabitants  thereon  in  winter  and  200  during  the  summer 
months.  Picnic  parties  are  held  there  frequently  in  the  summer. 
This  water  is  pumped  by  direct  pressure.  When  water  stands  in 
the  pipes  in  hot  weather  it  develops  an  unpleasant  odor  and  taste ; 
it  is  soft  Thirteen  miles  of  wood  mains,  with  lead  service  pipes, 
are  used.  One  thousand  families,  or  65  per  cent,  use  the  supply 
and  950,000  gallons  are  used  daily.  The  greatest  trouble  experi- 
enced with  this  supply  is  to  control  the  ground  adjacent  to  the 
lake  during  the  summer.

Union  City. &#; In    this  city  built  a  system  of  wells  for  fur- 
nishing the  public  water  supply.  Two  of  these  wells  are  dug  to 
a  depth  of  35  feet,  with  a  capacity  of  275,000  gallons,  dug 
through  sand  and  gravel;  four  wells  are  drilled  through  lime- 
stone, furnishing  500,000  gallons  per  minute,  but  these  wells  are 
only  used  when  the  dug  wells  are  not  sufficient,  as  in  case  of  fire 
or  drought  The  water  is  piunped  into  mains  with  pressure  suf- 
ficient for  fire.  Seventeen  miles  of  mains  of  wood  and  iron,  with 
lead  service  pipes,  are  used.  Pive  hundred  families,  or  90  per

RIPLEY  COUNTY. 

Batesville.&#; The  Batesville  Water  Works  Co.,  built  in  , 
and  owned  by  a  private  company,  furnishes  the  water  supply  for 
this  town.  The  supply  is  frorn  ponds  and  a  spring.  One  pond 
is  located  in  the  Fair  Grounds  inside  of  the  half-mile  track; 
depth  six  or  eight  feet,  with  white  clay  bottom.  There  are  also 
two  small  ponds  connected  to  water  works.  The  watershed  is 
about  60  acres,  partly  wooded  and  with  one  family  living  on 
grounds.  Picnic  parties  are  frequent  in  summer  and  boating  is 
allowed  on  the  pond.  The  spring  is  18  feet  deep  and  supplies  30,- 
000  gallons  of  water  per  day:  clay  and  sand  bottom.  This  spring 
is  dug.  The  water  is  pumped  to  a  tank  holding  50,000  gallons, 
and  the  water  often  develops  an  unpleasant  taste  and  smell  like 
that  of  swamp  water.  There  are  three  miles  of  mains  in  use, 
these  being  of  cast  iron,  with  rod  iron  and  lead  for  the  service 
pipes.  About  80  families  use  this  supply  and  an  average  of  60,000 
gallons  per  day  are  used.

Rockport. &#; A  private  company,  called  the  Rockport  Water 
Works  Co.,  built  in    by  A.  H.  Kennedy,  and  getting  the  sup- 
ply from  deep  wells,  furnishes  this  town  with  its  public  water 
supply.  These  well's  are  90  feet  deep  through  hardpan,  about  20 
feet  from  the  surface,  into  gravel.  The  water  is  pumped  to 
standpipe  holding  60,000  gallons.  This  water  is  hard.  Six  miles 
of  distributing  mains  are  used,  these  being  of  cast  iron  with  gal- 
vanized iron  service  pipes.  Nearly  all  the  population  uses  the 
supply  and  about  450  taps,  consuming  daily  250,000  gallons,  are 
in  use. 

St.  Meinrad. &#; In    this  town  built  a  supply  consisting  of 
well  and  spring.  The  spring  is  piped  into  the  well,  going  about 
300  feet  under  ground.  The  land  is  all  cleared  on  the  watershed 
and  about  200  inhabitants  live  thereon.  The  flow  is  from  500  to 
1,000  gallons  per  day.  The  well  is  15  feet  deep,  through  rich 
ground  subsoil,  some  clay,  underlying  strata  mostly  slate.  The 
well  is  dug  and  the  vein  of  water  comes  from  what  was  formerly 
an  old  coal  bank.  The  water  is  supplied  by  gravity  from  the 
spring  to  the  well.  The  wat^r  tastes  and  smells  of  iron  and  sul- 
phur. An  iron  pump  is  used  and  the  pipe  connecting  the  spring 
and  well  is  of  galvanized  iron.  On  top  and  on  the  other  side 
of  the  hill  from  the  source  of  the  water  supply,  about  200  feet 
distant,  is  a  cemetery.  There  is  a  very  small  brook  between  the 
spring  and  the  cemetery.

Sullivan. &#; Sullivan  now  owns  a  public  system,  the  supply  of 
which  is  taken  from  a  small  creek.  This  was  built  by  Howe  & 
Co.  eight  years  ago.  This  creek  receives  much  water  from  several 
c()al  mines  above  the  dam  and  is  far  from  being  a  satisfactory 
supply.  It  is  pumped  to  a  standpipo  80x20  feet  and  from  there 
flows  through  eight  miles  of  mains  having  galvanized  iron  service 
pipes.  About  450,000  gallons  per  day  are  used,  but  only  for 
sprinkling  and  such  purposes,  the  water  for  drinking  and  domestic 
purposes  coming  from  private  wells.  The  town  is  now  figuring  on

VIGO  COUNTY. 

Terre  Haute. &#; A  private  company  called  the  Terre  Haute 
Water  Works  Co.,  and  owned  by  them  since  ,  gets  its  supply 
from  the  Wabash  River.  All  sewers  discharge  below  the  intake. 
The  water  is  pumped  through  filters  direct  In  the  winter  the 
water  developed  an  especially  bad  woody  taste,  which  is  due  to 
plant  life  in  the  water.  Sixty  miles  of  mains  are  used,  these  be- 
ing of  cast  iron  with  a  little  wrought  iron,  and  lead  and  galvan- 
ized iron  service  pipes.  Probably  40  per  cent  of  the  population 
use  the  public  supply  and  60  per  cent  are  supplied  by  private 
wells. 

WABASH  COUNTY. 

North  Manchester. &#; This  town  owns  a  system  of  flowing  wells 
which  was  built  in  .  These  wells  are  driven  100  feet  deep 
and  are  14  in  number,  flowing  about  55,000  gallons  in  seven 
hours.  These  are  driven  through  clay  top  soil,  gravel  and  sand 
below,  and  the  water  is  pumped  to  a  standpipe  16  feet  by  110  feet 
high,  holding  approximately  162,000  gallons.  The  sup])ly 
is  hard.  About  five  miles  of  distributing  mains  of  iron,  with  gal- 
vanized iron 'Service  pipes,  are  used.  Two  hundred  families,  or 
25  per  cent,  use  daily  70,000  gallons.

Wabash. &#; Wabash  is  supplied  with  its  water  by  the  Wabnsh 
Water  Co.,  a  private  company  built  in  18S6  by  Samuel  Bullock 
&  Co.  The  water  comes  from  bored  wells  60  feet  deep,  bored 
through  a  layer  of  very  hard  blue  clay,  then  into  gravel.  This  is 
pumped  to  a  standpipe  100  feet  high  and  25  feet  in  diameter  and 
covered.  The  water  is  medium  hard.  Twenty-six  miles  of  mains 
of  cast  iron,  with  service  pipes  of  the  same,  are  in  use.  Fifteen 
hundred,  or  75  per  cent  of  the  families,  use  about  750,000  gallons 
per  day.  There  are  some  private  wells  on  the  south,  but  not  on 
the  north  side  of  the  city.

WARRICK  COUNTY. 

Boonville. &#; This  city  owns  an  artificial  lake  6  to  13  feet  in 
depth,  which  was  built  in  .  The  watershed  consists  of 
200  acres  with  three  houses  thereon.  A  standpipe  is  used  and 
the  water  is  pumped  to  it  This  standpipe  is  100  feet  high  and 
is  20x30  feet.  The  water  from  this  supply  is  soft.  Iron  on  steel 
is  used  for  the  nine  miles  of  distributing  mains,  and  350  families 
use  the  water.    There  are  also  many  private  wells  in  use. 

WASHINGTON  COUNTY. 

Campbellsburg. &#; No  public  supply. 

Hardinsburg. &#; 'So  public  water  supply. 

Livonia. &#; Private  bored  wells  furnish  the  supply  for  this  town. 

New  Pekin. &#; No  public  supply. 

Salem. &#; This  town  has  a  system  of  springs  which  they  had 
built  in  ,  and  which  is  owned  by  Salem.  The  watershed  is 
1,000  acres,  wooded  and  cleared  and  with  about  75  inhabitants 
thereon.  The  flow  from  these  springs  averages  125,000  gallons. 
The  water  is  hard  and  the  soil  is  clay,  limestone  subsoil.  A  res- 
ervoir with  a  capacity  of  60,000  gallons  is  used.  At  times  the 
water  develops  a  taste  of  mud  and  rotten  leaves.  After  hard 
rains  the  water  becomes  muddy,  but  this  will  be  remedied  soon  by 
improvements.  About  five  miles  of  mains  of  iron  are  used,  with 
gas  pipe  for  service  pipes.  Four  hundred  families,  or  66  2-3  per 
cent  of  the  population,  use  the  supply,  and  the  average  daily 
consumption  is  80,000  gallons.     A  few  private  wells  are  used. 

WAYNE  COUNTY. 

Boston. &#; No  public  supply. 

Cambridge  City. &#; The  only  public  supply  Cambridge  City  has 
is  for  sprinkling  and  fire  protection.  The  taste  and  appearance  of 
well  water  used  is  good,  but  the  nearness  of  many  of  the  wells  to 
privy  vaults  is  not  assuring  that  in  the  future  the  water  may  not 
be  contaminated. 

Centerville. &#; No  public  water  supply.

THE  INSPECTION  AND  CONTROL  OF  FOOD  AND 

DRUGS. 

In  the  absence  of  national  legislation  on  the  subject  it  has 
remained  for  the  several  States  to  solve  the  problem  of  pure  food 
as  best  they  might.  Inability  of  the  individual  State  to  interfere 
with  interstate  commerce  has  been  one  of  the  chief  drawbacks  to 
the  framing  of  an  entirely  satisfactory  pure  food  law.  A  State 
can,  provided  the  means  are  afforded  it,  regulate  the  manufac- 
ture and  sale  of  all  home  products.  But  when  all  other  States  are 
allowing  the  manufacture  of  impure  goods  it  becomes  an  impossi- 
bility for  any  one  State  to  keep  such  goods  from  coming  over  its 
borders.  Notwithstanding  this  vital  defect  in  the  working  of  any 
local  pure  food  law,  every  State  has  some  form  of  a  food  law  on 
its  statute  books. 

Pure  food  laws  are  a  part  of  the  police  power  of  the  State, 
and  as  such  are  subject  to  the  broadest  interpretation.  The  ex- 
tent to  which  a  State  may  go  to  protect  public  health  and  prevent 
fraud  is  indefinable  and  unlimited.  The  laws  are  justified  by  the 
unquestioned  fundamental  right  of  tlie  State  to  provide  for  the 
protection  and  preservation  of  health.  Even  before  .the  enact- 
ment of  special  food  laws,  it  was  an  indictable  offense  to  mix 
fiLything  in  the  food  made  and  supplied  for  human  consumption 
wbicli  would  be  unwholesome  and  deleterious  to  health,  and  the 
wilful  adulteration  or  mixing  unwholesome  ingredients  in  foods 
was  considered  an  act  dangerous  to  the  public  health  and  to  life, 
and  constituted  a  public  nuisance. 

The  State  food  laws  were  first  intended  IjO  prohibit  the  sale  of 
foods  injurious  to  health.  The  statutes  were  strictly  drawn  for 
this  purpose  and  the  courts  have  in  all  instances  upheld  them. 
This  class  of  adulteration  has  been  so  rigidly  restricted  that  its 
extent  is  much  less  than  formerly,  except  in  the  case  of  the  use  of 
antiseptics  and  coloring  materials.  The  contention  is  made  that 
the  use  of  the  extremely  small  quantities  of  antiseptics  necessary 
to  prevent  fermentation  and  decay  in  no  way  imperils  the  life  or 
health  of  the  consumer.  But  the  courts  frequently  have  held  that 
"It  is  not  the  quantity  but  the  nature  of  the  substance  which  the 
act  prohibits." 

By  far  the  gronter  part  of  the  adulteration  of  food  is  not  an

attack  upon  the  health  of  the  consumer,  hnt  an  economic  fraud, 
and  consists  in  forcing  upon  him  without  his  knowledge  products 
diflFerent  from  what  they  purport  to  be,  lacking  in  valuable  con- 
stituents or  made  from  cheap  ingredients  so  prepared  as  to  coun- 
terfeit the  genuine  article.  It  is  to  the  suppression  of  adultera- 
tions of  this  class  that  most  recent  legislation  has  been  directed. 

The  food  law  under  the  provisions  of  which  the  laboratory  is 
operated  dates  back  only  as  far  as  .  Earlier  than  this  there 
had  been  some  food  legislation,  chiefly  of  a  specific  character, 
but  lack  of  enforcement  rendered  it  of  little  value.  In    the 
oleomargarine  bill  was  enacted,  making  it  obligatory  upon  dealers 
in  oleo  to  label  their  product.  The  General  Assembly  in   
re-enacted  all  food  laws  passed  by  earlier  legislatures,  making 
such  changes  therein  as  were  suggested  by  a  committee  appointed 
to  revise  the  code.  The  present  food  law  of  the  State  was  given 
in  full  in  the  annual  report  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  for 
,  together  with  the  food  standards  and  definitions  adopted 
July  7,  ,  by  the  State  Board  of  Health.  These  rulings  fur- 
nish a  definite  basis  for  work  in  the  enforcement  of  the  pure  food 
law.  The  definitions  and  standards  adopted  are  those  established 
as  official  for  the  United  States  Government  or  given  in  the  latest 
edition  of  the  Pharmacopoeia.  The  analytical  methods  employed 
are  the  official  methods  approved  and  adopted  by  the  Association 
of  Official  Agricultural  Chemists. 

In  the  absence  of  any  definite  information  as  to  the  character 
of  the  foods  and  drugs  sold  in  the  State,  before  a  proper  enforce- 
ment of  the  law  could  be  undertaken,  it  was  necessary  to  learn 
of  conditions  that  needed  a  remedy.  In  order  to  get  this  infor- 
mation, and  to  be  fully  advised  as  to  the  conditions  of  the  mar- 
kets throughout  the  State,  the  first  step  taken  towards  law  enforce- 
ment was  to  send  out  inspectors  to  every  section,  for  the  purpose 
of  taking  samples  of  foods  and  drugs  for  analysis,  and  to  spread 
among  manufacturers,  wholesalers  and  retailers  of  those  products, 
information  as  to  the  character  of  the  law,  its  provisions  and 
intentions.  Proper  observance  of  food  and  drug  laws,  which  are 
technical  in  character  and  the  meaning  of  which  is  not  easily  in- 
terpreted, can  only  follow  a  clear  understanding  of  the  law.  The 
inspectors  have  given  much  attention  to  tins  phase  of  the  work, 
which  is  educational  rather  than  corrective,  and  their  results  cout

firm  the  idea  that  law  violation  is  more  often  the  result  of  igno- 
rance and  unskilful  preparation,  than  of  wilful  misrepresentation 
and  fraud.  During  the  year,  L.  W.  Bristol,  Bert  W.  Cohn, 
Chas.  Bragg,  Wm.  McAbee  and  K.  E.  Bishop  have  acted  as  food 
and  drug  inspectors,  and  have  visited  nearly  all  the  larger  cities 
and  towns  of  the  State  at  least  twice,  and  in  some  cases  three 
times.  The  cities  so  inspected  were  Indianapolis,  Anderson,  Mun- 
cie.  Ft.  Wayne,  South  Bend,  Elkhart,  Goshen,  Hammond,  Michi- 
gan City,  Whiting,  Peru,  Marion,  Alexandria,  Elwood,  Nohles- 
ville,  Lafayette,  Crawfordsville,  Brazil,  Greencastle,  Terre  Haute, 
Vincennes,  Evansville,  New  Albany,  Madison,  Jeflfersonville, 
Washington,  Franklin,  Edinburg,  Martinsville,  Bloomington, 
Richmond,  Connersville,  -Columbus,  Covington,  Attica,  Williams- 
port,  Veedersburg,  Hillsboro,  Kokomo,  Huntington,  Huntingburg, 
Boonville,  Salem,  Mt.  Vcmon,  Delphi,  Logansport,  Auburn,  Tip- 
ton, Plymouth,  Rushville,  Oakland  City,  Princeton,  Wabash,  La- 
porte,  Albion,  Valparaiso  and  Rochester.  In  addition  to  the  col- 
lection of  samples  for  analysis  the  inspectors  made  note  of  the 
character  of  the  stores  and  markets  visited,  and  have  reported  all 
unclean,  filthy  or  unsanitary  places,  visited  slaughter-houses,  and 
examined  into  local  health  conditions. 

The  results  of  these  investigations  are  described  under  the  title, 
"Condition  of  Groceries^  Markets  and  Slaughter-Houses." 

In  addition  to  the  regular  inspectors  who  have  been  engaged 
entirely  in  work  outside  the  laboratory,  the  chemical  force  has 
also  made  frequent  inspection  trips  for  the  purpose  of  purchas- 
ing samples  and  investigating  unsatisfactory  conditions.  The  cost 
of  inspectors'  traveling  and  hotel  expenses  and  the  purchase  of 
samples  has  been  $1,581.20.  The  number  of  samples  brought  in 
and  analyzed  was  5,200 ;  the  cost  per  sample  was,  therefore,  30.46 
cents,  a  figure  which  is  very  low  in  view  of  the  fact  that  at  least 
a  part  of  each  inspector's  time  was  occupied  in  other  than  food  and 
drug  work. 

Much  work  has  also  been  done  at  the  laboratory  for  the.  pur- 
pose of  informing  wholesalers  and  manufacturers  as  to  the  char- 
acter of  the  products  they  were  handling.  These  samples  have 
been  sent  to  the  Laboratory  accompanied  by  proper  information 
as  to  their  source.  The  results  of  the  analyses  which  have  been 
fumished  the  dealers  have  been  heartily  appreciated  by  them,  and

have  contribiited  largely  in  assisting  them  to  remove  their  stock 
of  adulterated  goods  and  as  well  have  assured  them  that  the  qual- 
ity of  new  invoices  was  satisfactory.  Manufacturers  and  whole- 
salers all  over  the  State  have  taken  advantage  of  the  opportunity 
the  Laboratory  has  afforded  for  this  work,  and  have  not  failed  to 
express  their  appreciation  of  the  assistance  they  have  received. 
The  Laboratory  was  opened  for  work  about  the  1st  of  September, 
,  and  in  this  report  is  enumerated  all  the  work  done  since 
that  time  up  to  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year,  covering  a  period  of 
about  14  months.  During  that  time  there  have  been  analyzed 
3,641  samples  of  food  products,  and  1,559  samples  of  drugs.  Of 
the  total  number  of  food  products  examined  57.7  per  cent,  have 
been  pure,  while  of  the  drug  samples  37.5  per  cent,  have  been  pure. 

The  expense  of  maintaining  the  Food  and  Drug  Laboratory 
from  September  1,  ,  the  time  when  work  was  commenced, 
to  October  31,  ,  including  salaries  of  chemists,  clerk  and 
janitor,  laundry  bills,  sundry  drug  bills,  apparatus  to  replace 
breakage  during  the  year,  postage,  etc.,  was  $4,588.43.  The  total 
number  of  food  and  drug  samples  analyzed  was  5,200,  thus  mak- 
ing the  cost  per  sample  88.24  cents.  The  total  cost  per  sample  for 
collection  and  analysis  was  $1,187.  Included  in  this  estimate  are 
many  expenses  that  were  not  actually  incurred  in  the  food  and 
drug  work.  For  instance,  much  of  the  office  work  consists  in  an- 
swering queries  and  sending  out  information  concerning  the  food 
and  drug  laws,  and  much  of  the  time  of  the  chemist  is  occupied 
in  executive  rather  than  in  analytical  and  inspection  work. 

The  following  summary  srives  in  detail  the  character  and  va- 
riety of  the  work  done  and  the  analytical  results :

It  has  been  tlie  custom  of  the  Laboratory  to  publish  from  time 
to  time  in  the  Monthly  Bulletin  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  sum- 
maries of  the  work,  giving  names  of  dealers  and  manufacturers  of 
products  both  good  and  adulterated.  The  press  of  the  State  has 
also  given  wide  publicity  to  the  results  of  the  Laboratory  in  fre- 
quent popular  articles,  and  as  well  by  occasionally  reporting  in 
full  the  results,  has  contributed  largely  to  a  better  understanding 
of  what  the  Food  and  Drug  Law  is,  and  of  the  conditions  of  the 
markets  which  make  its  enforcement  necessary.  The  Bulletin  has 
also  been  distributed  widely  among  manufacturers,  wholesalers,  re- 
tailers and  the  public,  and  has  served  to  convey  much  informa- 
tion as  to  the  character  of  the  food  and  drugs  sold.  The  health 
officers  of  many  cities  and  towns  have  acted  as  food  and  drug  in- 
spectors and  have  devoted  much  attention  to  the  quality  of  the 
goods  sold  in  their  cities.  The  cities  of  Indianapolis,  South  Bend, 
Ft  Wayne,  Orawfordsville,  Terre  Haute,  Evansville,  Noblesville, 
Newcastle  and  Columbus  have  done  valuable  work,  particul'arly  in 
controlling  the  quality  of  their  milk  supply.  It  is,  of  course,  very 
desirable  that  every  city  have  its  own  milk  inspector  and  a  proper- 
ly equipped  laboratory  where  the  necessary  analytical  work  may  be 
done.  In  the  absence  of  such  facilities,  however,  the  State  Lab- 
oratory endeavors  to  assist  local  authorities,  and  has  furnished 
material  help  in  many  instances. 

MILK. 

During  the  fall  of    our  inspectors  visited  most  of  the 
larger  cities  and  towns  and  collected  samples  of  milk  which  were 
shipped  to  thd  Laboratory  for  analysis.  The  quality  of  the  milk 
supplies  thus  investigated  was  found  to  be  good.  In  only  a  few 
instances  did  it  appear  that  preservatives  or  coloring  matter  had 
been  used.  The  results  of  the  examination  show  that  of  the  461 
samples  analyzed  368  were  pure  and  93  were  adulterated.  These 
figures  do  not  express  the  true  character  of  the  milk,  however,  so 
far  as  wilful  violation  of  the  law  is  concerned,  for  most  of  the 
milks  reported  as  adulterated  were  so  classed  because  they  con- 
tained a  slightly  lower  fat  content  than  that  required  by  law,  and 
not  because  they  bore  evidence  of  having  been  skimmed  or  wa- 
tered. The  control  of  the  purity  of  a  milk  supply  by  Laboratory 
methods  is  satisfactory  in  so  far  as  it  insures  the  sale  of  milk  of

standard  composition,  free  from  added  water,  color  and  preserva- 
tives. But  it  does  not  guard  against  unsanitary  conditions  of 
production  and  handling  that  are  of  far  more  importance  to  the 
public  health  than  the  frauds  practiced  by  unscrupulous  dealers. 
The  healthf  ulness  of  the  cows,  well  kept  dairies,  and  suitable  appli- 
ances for  cooling  and  marketing  milk  before  it  becomes  the  host 
of  myriads  of  abnormal  bacteria,  are  factors  which  can  not  be 
neglected  if  a  city's  milk  supply  is  to  be  kept  clean  and  whole- 
some. It  is  obvious  that  State  inspection  of  dairies  can  not  well  be 
undertaken-  The  State  can  not  keep  a  host  of  inspectors  to  cover 
36,000  square  miles  nor  control  the  conditions  of  thousands  of 
dairim.  Such  work  should  be  the  duty  of  sanitary  officers  ap-

pointed  for  the  purpose  by  each  city.  Several  cities  of  the  State 
have  already  undertaken  such  inspection  and  report  that  at  the 
beginning  of  the  work  but  few  dairies  were  found  that  were  prop- 
erly arranged  and  handled.  Indianapolis  is  requiring  of  its  milk 
dealers  the  observance  of  scrupulous  cleanliness  about  the  bam 
and  milkhouse,  and  milk  inspectors  make  frequent  inspections  to 
see  that  the  regulations  are  lived  up  to  by  the  producers.  New 
Albany  has  recently  adopted  a  comprehensive  milk  inspection  ordi- 
nance that  may  well  be  adopted  by  other  cities.  It  differs  from 
the  usual  ordinance  in  that  no  license  fee  is  charged  the  dairyman 
for  his  permit  to  sell  his  produce.  Instead  he  pays  a  veterinarian 
for  inspecting  his  herd  at  least  four  times  a  year.  This  the  dairy- 
man is  usually  willing  to  do,  for  such  inspection  is  now  a  part  of 
the  routine  of  successful  dairying. 

GRBAM. 

Of  the  48  samples  of  cream  examined,  19,  or  39.5  per  cent, 
were  classed  as  adulterated.  The  standard  fat  content  of  cream  is 
18  per  cent,  and  it  is  apparent  from  the  results  obtained  that 
many  dealers  put  out  cream  containing  much  less  than  that.  One 
sample  examined  contained  only  4  per  cent  of  fat  and  was  in 
truth  nothing  more  than  a  rich  milk.  We  have  found  no  evidence 
of  cream  thickeners,  gelatine  compounds,  etc.,  having  been  used. 

BUTTER. 

Of  the  samples  of  butter  analyzed  27  have  been  good  and  11 
adulterated.  The  condition  of  the  butter  market  is  worthy  of 
serious  attention.  A  single  inspection  of  the  city  market  of  In- 
dianapolis showed  that  of  nine  samples  of  so  called  "dairy  butter" 
purchased,  six  were  oleomargarine.  Several  of  the  samples  so  sold 
were  wrapped  in  brown  paper  which  when  taken  from  the  butter 
was  found  to  bear  the  stamp  "oleomargarine."  It  is  evident  that 
the  dealers  using  such  a  stamp  were  doing  it  only  for  the  purpose 
of  complying  with  the  regulations  of  the  Internal  Revenue  De- 
partment, rather  than  to  give  any  information  as  to  the  article 
purchased.  The  stamp  was  nearly  illegible  and  so  placed  as  to  be 
entirely  hidden  from  the  purchaser.  The  addition  of  the  word 
"oleomargarine"  in  such  a  fashion  does  not,  however,  comply 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


243 

with  the  Government  regulations.  The  regulations  for  the  sale 
of  oleomargarine  by  retail  dealers  as  laid  down  by  the  Internal 
Revenue  Department  are  as  follows : 

"Each  retailer's  wooden  or  paper  package  must  have  the  name 
and  address  of  the  dealer  printed  or  branded  thereon,  likewise  the 
words  'pound'  and  'oleomargarine'  in  letters  not  less  than  one- 
quarter  of  an  inch  square,  and  the  quantity  written,  printed  or 
branded  thereon  in  figures  of  the  same  size  (one-quarter  of  an 
inch  square),  substantially  as  follows:

the  disguised  natne  of  "dairy  butter"  that  was  properly  marked. 
The  dealers  stoutly  maintain  their  rights  to  sell  oleomargarine 
under  fancy  names.  They  insist  that  it  is  called  "dairy  butter" 
by  the  trade:  that,  in  fact,  long  continued  usage  authorizes  the 
sale  of  oleomargarine  when  dairy  butter  is  called  for.  The  phrases 
"Country  Roll,"  "Jersey  Roll,"  etc.,  are  also  applied  to  oleo- 
margarine. Of  course,  such  misleading  terms  are  used  only  to 
deceive  the  customer  and  promote  the  sale  of  oleomargarine.  There 
is  no  contention  nowadays  that  oleomargarine  is  not  as  wholesome 
as  butter ;  the  illegality  of  its  sale  consists  in  the  fact  that  the  re- 
tailer purchasing  it  for  35  cents  a  pound  or  less,  is  able  by  selling 
it  as  butter  to  make  an  enormous  profit 

.  Within  recent  years  a  very  large  business  has  been  built  up  in 
the  manufacture  and  sale  of  so-called  renovated  butter.  Reno- 
vated butter  is  made  from  butters  that  are  unsalable  because  of 
their  appearance,  odor,  rancidity  and  general  unfitness  for  con- 
sumption. Renovated  butter  stock  is  collected  throughout  the 
countr^y  much  as  soap  grease  is  collected.  It  is  hauled  to  some  cen- 
tral depot  and  there  melted,  strained,  treated  with  acids  or  alkali 
or  blown  with  steam  until  it  is  deodorized  and  its  rancidity  is  re- 
moved. The  butter  is  then  rechumed,  usually  with  milk,  and 
worked  up  into  salable  form.  The  better  grades  of  renovated  but- 
ter are  of  fine  appearance  and  of  good  quality,  and  large  amounts 
of  renovated  butter  are  manufactured  yearly,  and  yet  after  fre- 
quent inquiry  of  dealers  in  butter  we  fail  to  find  that  the  renovated 
article  is  ever  sold.  It  undoubtedly  comes  to  market  as  creamery 
butter,  and  the  extent  of  the  imposition  practiced  by  butter  deal- 
ers or  house  to  house  vendors  must  be  veiy  great

GHEE7SE. 

Of  the  19  cheeses  analyzed  all  have  been  pure.  The  use  of  pre- 
servatives is  not  uneommon  in  soft  cheese,  such  as  the  so-called 
'^Neufchatel"  or  cream  mixtures,  but  on  the  whote  we  find  but 
little  evidence  of  adulteration  in  this  dairy  product 

CONDENSED  MILK. 

Condensed  milk  is  made  by  evaporating  milk  to  one-half  or 
one-third  its  original  volume  and  adding  cane  sugar.  In  report- 
ing the  results  of  the  analysis  of  the  samples  examined,  we  have 
given  the  amount  of  fat  present  in  the  sample  and  also  the  amount 
of  fat  present  in  the  original  milk.  The  results  show  that  every 
sample  but  one  examined,  was  made  from  normal  whole  milk;  no 
preservatives  were  present.  Several  samples  of  so-called  evap- 
orated cream  were  analyzed,  but  proved  to  be  simply  whole  milk 
evaporated  to  a  creamlike  consistency.  Aside  from  this  resem- 
blance they  were  in  nowise  condensed  cream.  Under  the  new 
food  law  this  misleading  term  or  name  will  be  abandoned  and  the 
product  will  be  sold  for  what  it  is,  simply  evaporated  milk.

ICE  CREAM. 

The  product  sold  as  ice  cream  is  of  varying  composition,  the 
basis  of  which  is  a  cream  or  milk  mixture  flavored  and  frozen. 
Genuine  ice  cream  should  be  made  wholly  of  cream,  properly  fla- 
vored. Such  a  mixture  will  not  remain  in  a  solid  condition  long, 
and  the  practice  of  adding  some  solidifier  such  as  gelatin  or  gum 
tragacanth  has  become  common  among  dealers.  Starch  may  also 
be  employed  as  a  thickener.  The  U.  S.  Department  of  Agriculture 
standard  for  ice  cream  requires  that  at  least  14  per  cent  of  butter 
fat  be  present.  Under  this  standard  none  of  the  six  samples  of 
ice  cream  analyzed  were  pure.  Three  contained  large  quantities 
of  gelatiiL

BAKING  POWDER, 

Baking  powder  is  a  leavening  agent  now  in  general  use  which 
has  taken  the  place  of  the  cream  of  tartar  and  saleratus  mixture 
formerly  employed  in  raising  bread.  It  acts  in  the  same  manner 
as  the  older  preparation  and  leavens  the  bread  by  the  formation 
within  the  loaf  of  carbon  dioxid.  Baking  powder  is  composed 
of  acid  and  alkaline  constituents  so  prepared  that  when  brought 
into  contact  with  water  a  chemical  reaction  takes  place  between 
the  acid  and  alkaline  carbonate  with  the  resulting  liberation  of 
carbon  dioxid. 

The  value  of  a  baking  powder  depends,  therefore,  on  the  amount 
of  gas  liberated  in  the  process  of  bread  making.  A  good  powder 
is  one  so  compounded  that  the  acid  salt,  which  may  be  bitartrate 
of  potassium,  calcium  acid  phosphate,  or  alum,  is  present  in  just 
the  quantity  required  to  set  free  all  of  the  carbon  dioxid  in  the 
bicarbonate  of  soda,  the  alkali  usually  used.  Normal  baking 
powders  will  give  10  per  cent  and  over  of  their  weight  as  gas. 
All  powders  producing  less  gas  are  deficient  either  because  of 
deterioration  by  age  or  improper  compounding. 

In  reporting  the  results  we  have  given  the  percentage  of  carbon 
dioxid  capable  of  being  liberated  in  the  process  of  baking,  and 
have  also  designated  the  character  of  the  powder.  Several  of 
the  samples  were  not  of  the  composition  claimed  for  them  and 
a  large  number,  26,  or  54.1  per  cent.,  were  low  in  carbon  dioxid. 
Probably  many  of  the  powders  classed  as  illegal  were  up  to  the 
standard  when  packed,  but  had  deteriorated  with  age.  This  can 
not  be  taken  into  consideration,  however,  either  by  the  housewife 
or  the  chemist,  and  it  becomes  the  duty  of  the  manufacturer  to 
recall  his  stock  before  it  is  so  old  as  to  be  worthless.    One  sample 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


248 

contained  lees  than  2  per  oent  of  available  carbon  dioxid,  and  a 
cook  using  this  powder  would  have  to  employ  at  least  20  teaspoon- 
f  uls  to  the  quart  of  flour.

CREAM  OF  TARTAR. 

Potassium  bitartrate,  ordinarily  known  as  cream  of  tartar,  is  the 
agent  once  much  used  together  with  sodium  bicarbonate  or  cook- 
ing soda,  for  leavening  bread,  biscuit,  etc.  The  development  of 
the  modem  baking  powder  has  largely  diminished  the  use  of  cream 
of  tartar  and  now  but  small  quantities  are  sold.  During  the 
year  we  have  examined  256  samples  of  cream  of  tartar,  collected 
for  the  most  part  from  drug  stores,  of  which  248,  or  96.9  per  cent, 
of  the  samples  were  pure.  This  condition  is  somewhat  surpris- 
ing in  view  of  the  fact  that  cream  of  tartar  was  formerly  one  of 
the  most  heavily  adulterated  food  products.  All  of  the  adulterated 
samples  were  bought  at  grocery  stores  and  consisted  of  mixtures 
of  alum,  gypsum  and  starch.  One  of  the  samples  was  so  carefully 
compounded  that  its  acidity  was  exactly  that  of  normal  cream  of 
tartar.  Other  samples  were  poorly  made,  and  one  was  so  low 
in  acidity  that  it  had  no  value  as  a  liberator  of  carbon  dioxid. 

COFFEE. 

Of  the  23  coffee  samples  analyzed,  15  have  been  pure  and  eight 
were  classed  as  adulterated  because  of  the  use  of  facings  or  the 
admixture  of  chicory  and  roasted  cereals.  The  adulteration  of 
coffee  is  now  rarely  practiced,  since  the  introduction  of  the  cheap 
Brazilian  and  Central  American  products  which  sell  as  low  as 
seven  cents  a  pound  does  away  with  the  necessity  of  artificial 
coffee  substitutes.  Coffee  is  faced  or  coated  by  some  manufac- 
turers for  the  purpose,  as  they  claim,  of  retaining  the  aroma  of 
the  coffee.  Such  treatment,  however,  is  more  frequently  em- 
ployed to  make  a  low  grade  coffee  look  like  a  better  article.  The 
facing  or  polishing  of  coffee  with  sugars,  water,  albumen  or  any 
other  preparation,  is  illegal;  But  one  sample,  and  that  a  package 
coffee,  cx>ntained  chicory.  The  chief  fraud  of  the  coffee  trade  con- 
sists in  the  sale  of  inferior  grades  for  the  more  desirable  higher 
priced  berry.  The  amount  of  Mocha  coffee  imported  from  Arabia 
each  year  is  but  a  tithe  of  the  coffee  sold  as  Mocha.  The  same 
is  true  of  Java  coffees.  It  is  probably  true  that  almost  all  of  the 
so-called  Mocha  and  Java  coffees  on  the  market  are  nothing  but 
the  better  grades  of  Central  American  coffees,

CHOCOLATE  AND  COCOAS. 

Cocoa  and  chocolate  are  preparations  made  from  tlie  cocoa 
bean.  The  ground  kernel  of  the  cocoa  bean  is  known  as  chocolate. 
When  a  portion  of  the  cocoa  butter  or  fat  of  the  bean  is  removed 
by  pressure,  the  resulting  product  is  called  cocoa.  Chocolate  and 
cocoa  are  adulterated  by  the  admixture  of  starc'hes,  such  as  arrow- 
root, wheat  and  corn  starch,  or  by  the  use  of  cocoa  shells.  Of 
the  28  samples  of  cocoa  analyzed  22  were  pure  and  six  were  adul- 
terated. Of  the  chocolates  21  were  pure  and  two  were  adulterated. 
Several  samples  of  sweet  chocolate  prepared  in  cake  form  as  a 
confection  contained  added  starch.  One  cocoa  sample  contained  a 
large  excess  of  cocoa  shells.

TEAS. 


But  few  teas  were  examined  and  these  were  all  ])ure,  if  we 
except  the  addition  of  coloring  matter  usually  known  as  facing. 
The  Board  of  Tea  Experts  of  the  Treasury  Department  which 
has  fixed  the  standard  of  purity,  quality  and  fitness  for  consump- 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


254 

tion  of  tea  imported  into  the  United  States,  allows  the  importa- 
tion of  teas  which  have  a  minimum  amount  of  coloring  substances 
not  deemed  unwholesome  or  deleterious  to  the  consumer.  In  line 
with  this  decision  we  have  not  cl'assified  faced  teas  as  adulterated. 

LEMON  EXTRACTS. 

In  the  analysis  of  lemon  essences  or  extracts  we  have  required 
that  at  least  five  per  cent,  of  pure  lemon  oil  should  be  present 
Many  terpeneless  lemon  extracts  are  sold  as  pure  extracts,  but  as 
they  contain  no  lemon  oil,  or  are  made  from  oils  from  which  the 
terpenes  have  been  removed,  they  must  be  considered  to  be  adul- 
terated. The  sale  of  compound  lemon  extract  is  not  allowable. 
The  value  of  an  extract  for  flavoring  purposes  depends  upon  the 
amount  of  pure  lemon  oil  present,  and  the  compounding  of  oil  of 
lemon  grass,  citral  and  dilute  alcohol  makes  a  fraudulent  product. 

The  action  of  certain  manufacturers  of  flavoring  extracts  in 
attempting  to  override  the  standard  which  we  have  adopted  for 
lemon  extract  by  claiming  that  their  products  made  from  citral, 
or  with  a  "washed  out  oil,"  are  pure  lemon  extract,  and  therefore 
not  adulterated,  calls  for  special  attention  on  the  part  of  whole- 
salei-s  and  retailers  to  the  fact  that  our  standard  for  lemon  ex- 
tract reads  as  follows : 

"Lemon  extract  shall  contain  at  least  five  per  cent,  of  the  pure 
oil  of  lemon  dissolved  in  alcohol." 

Under  this  ruling,  which  is  in  accordance  with  the  standard 
sot  by  the  United  States  government  and  by  all  the  States  that 
have  adopted  a  standard,  the  extracts  made  from  the  "terpeneless" 
lemon  oil  and  from  "washed  out  oil"  must  be  considered  to  be 
adulterated,  \^^lile  oil  of  lemon  owes  much  of  its  characteristic 
aroma  to  citral,  it  is  none  the  less  true  that  lemon  extract,  as  we 
know  it,  does  not  depend  for  its  flavor  on  the  citral  alone,  but  that 
its  character  is  influenced  to  a  considerable  degree  by  the  ter- 
penes present  in  normal  oil  of  lemon.  Limonene,  the  chief  ter- 
pene  of  lemon  oil,  is  an  essential  constituent,  and  when  blended 
with  the  citral  gives  the  true  flavor  of  lemon. 

To  claim  that  extract  made  from  citral  and  "washed  out  oil"  is 
made  from  lemon  oil  is  as  fallacious  as  the  statements  of  the 
vinegar  manufacturer  that  his  compound  of  acetic  acid,  water 
and  color  is  cider  vinegar  because  the  acetic  acid  is  present 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC

Terpeneless  extracts  <»n  legally  be  sold  if  they  are  so  labeled, 
but  when  lemon  extract  is  ordered,  only  the  standard  article  should 
be  supplied. 

The  results  of  our  analyses  show  that  but  few  pure  goods  are 
sold,  and  that  most  of  the  so-called  lemon  extracts  are  inferior 
substitutes,  of  little  value  to  the  housewife.  We  found  but  56 
pure  extracts  out  of  343  examined,  while  287,  or  83.7  per  cent., 
were  either  low  in  lemon  oil,  contained  no  lemon  oil  at  all,  or 
were  artificially  colored  with  yellow  dyes.

VANIIvLA  EXTRACTS. 

We  have  examined  189  samples  of  vanilla  extract,  and  found 
53  to  be  pure  and  136,  or  71.9  per  cent,  adulterated  or  below 
standard.  Many  drug/g^sts'  samples  were  made  from  the  vanilla 
bean,  but  because  of  faulty  methods  of  preparation  are  low  in 
vanillin  content  and  must  therefore  be  classed  as  impure.  A  true 
vanilla  extract  is  made  by  macerating  the  vanilla  bean  with  sugar 
and  extracting  the  mass  with  diluted  alcohol.  Adulteration  of 
vanilla  extract  consists  of  substituting,  wholly  or  in  part,  the  in- 
ferior and  cheaper  Tonka  bean  for  the  vanilla  bean,  or  the  addi-

tion-of  the  artificial  coumarin  to  weak  extracts  of  the  true  bean, 
or  even  preparing  solutions  of  artificial  vanillin  or  artificial  cou- 
marin in  dilute  alcohol',  colored  with  caramel  or  coal  tar  dye  to 
represent  the  true  extract 

Extract  of  Tonka  has  a  decided  value  as  a  flavoring  medium, 
and  if  compounded  with  extract  of  vanilla,  can  be  sold  if  labelled 
"Extract  of  Vanilla  and  Tonka."

MISCELLANEOUS  FLAVORING  EXTRACTS. 

TJiider  this  head  we  have  classed  a  variety  of  pTodncts  occa- 
sionally used  for  flavoring  cakes,  confections  and  dessert  prepara- 
tions. 

But  four  out  of  twenty-four  samples  examined  were  legal.  In 
most  cases  the  goods  were  misbranded  or  improperly  labeled,  most 
of  the  pineapple,  banana,  strawberry,  raspberry,  peach  extracts, 
etc,  being  sold  as  pure  fruit  extracts. 

As  a  matter  of  fact  it  is  impossible  to  make  them  from  the 
fruits,  and  they  must  be  made  from  solution  in  alcohol  of  syn- 
thetic organic  preparations  known  as  compound  ethers.  Some 
of  the  compound  ethers  possess  a  remarkable  resemblance  to  fruits. 
Butyric  ether  has  a  distinct  pineapple  flavor,  and  a  mixture  of 
amyl  acetate  and  butyric  ether  counterfeits  very  closely  the  flavor 
of  the  banana. 

If  these  extracts  are  marked  "Artificial  Fruit  Flavors**  they 
can  be  legally  sold.

HONEY. 

Of  the  35  samples  of  honey  analyzed  but  six,  or  17.1  per 
cent,  were  impure.  Comb  honey  is  not  subject  to  adulteration, 
but  strained  honey  is  frequently  mixed  with  glucose  or  sugar 
syrup.  We  have  found  some  samples  purporting  to  be  pure 
"White  Clover"  honey  and  containing  a  piece  of  honey  comb,  to 
be  nothing  but  glucose  syrup.

MAPLE  SYRUP. 

No  other  articles  come  to  our  tables  under  such  false  colors  as  do 
maple  syrup  and  sugar.  The  results  of  the  analyses  of  54  weD 
known  brands  indicate  that  the  real  maple  syrup  rarely  or  never 
is  procurable  and  that  the  syrup  sold  under  that  name  is  a  prod- 
uct of  the  cane  instead  of  the  sugar  maple.  The  high  price  which 
maple  syrup  commands  because  of  its  peculiar  flavor  has  led  man- 
ufacturers to  prepare  all  sorts  of  imitation  goods,  and  the  great 
demand,  largely  in  excess  of  the  normal  supply,  enables  them  to 
sell  their  spurious  products  at  the  price  of  the  true  article.  Cane 
syrup,  made  by  dissolving  cane  sugar  in  water,  is  colored  with 
caramel,  a  burnt  sugar,  and  flavored  with  decoctions  of  com 
cobs,  hickory  bark  or  maple  chips  and  sold  to  the  public  under 
the  name  of  "Fancy  Vermont  Maple  Syrup."     Several  samples

analyzed  have  oontained  glucose  aymp,  one  brand  containing  over 
50  per  cent  Maple  products,  although  owing  their  sweetness  to 
sucrose,  the  same  sugar  that  is  produced  by  sugar  cane  or  the  sugar 
beet,  possess  a  peculiar  aromatic  odor  and  delicious  flavor,  which 
renders  them  much  more  valuable  than  ordinary  cane  sugar  prod- 
ucts. Since  it  is  this  characteristic  which  fixes  the  price  and 
creates  the  demand,  as  well  as  furnishes  a  valuable  product  for  the 
farmer,  we  insist  that  all  syrup  or  sugar  sold  as  maple  shall 
be  pure.  No  compounds  of  cane  and  maple  can  be  sold  unless 
marked  "cane  and  maple,"  with  the  percentage  of  each  ingredient, 
and  all  goods  sold  as  "syrup"  in  packages  bearing  pictures  of 
maple  grocers  or  sugar  houses  shall  be  considered  to  be  intention- 
ally misleading  and  misbranded.

MOLASSES. 

Molasses  is  made  from  the  jnice  of  cane  or  other  sugar  produc- 
ing plants,  and  is  commonly  understood  to  be  the  liquid  material 
draining  from  granulated  sugar  made  from  sugar  cane,  either  by 
natural  percolation  or  by  being  treated  in  centrifugal  machines. 
The  commercial  term,  molasses,  however,,  applies  to  other  syrups, 
including  that  made  from  sorghum.  The  perfection  of  sugar 
making  processes  has  increased  the  amount  of  cane  sugar  obtain- 
able from  a  given  quantity  of  juice  and,  consequently  diminished 
the  molasses  residue. 

With  the  diminishing  of  the  quantity  the  quality  of  the  mo- 
lasses has  also  depreciated  until  frequently  it  is  unsuitable  for 
table  use.  It  has  become  a  common  custom,  for  that  reason,  to 
add  glucose,  or  com  syrup,  to  these  dark,  strong  residuums,  and 
thereby  produce  a  lighter  colored  and  more  attractive  syrup,  of 
finer  body  and  flavor. 

While  this  addition  produces  an  article  of  increased  value  from 
a  commercial  standpoint,  the  use  of  glucose  in  improving  the  grade 
of  molasses  is  considered  by  all  authorities  to  be  an  adulteration, 
and  is  prohibited  by  our  law,  unless  goods  so  blended  are  properly 
branded.

80RGHTJM  MOLASSES. 

Sorghum  molasses  is  made  by  evaporating  sorghum  juice  to 
the  required  consistency.  Most  of  the  product  on  the  market  is 
made  in  a  small  way  by  concentrating  in  open  pans.  None  of 
the  sugar  is  removed  because  of  the  difficulty  with  which  it  can 
be  freed  from  the  starches  and  uncrystallizable  sugar.  Soi^hum 
syrup,  because  of  the  presence  of  large  quantities  of  saccharine 
matter,  is  very  liable  to  ferment,  and  the  use  of  preservatives  to 
check  fermentation  is  not  uncommon.  We  have  recently  had  oc- 
casion to  examine  a  sample  of  sorghum  syrup  which  was  preserved 
with  boric  acid  and  beta  naphthol,  and  also  contained  whiting  as 
a  filler.  Much  glucose  is  used  with  sorghum  syrup.  Some  sam- 
ples examined  contained  as  high  as  80  per  cent.  Six  of  the  16 
samples  examined  were  adulterated.

MEAT  PRODUCTS,  STEAKS,  SAUSAGES,  PRESSED  MEATS.  ETC. 

Considerable  work  has  been  done  in  investigating  the  quality 
of  the  fresh  prepared  meats  sold  on  our  markets.  Samples  sent 
in  by  our  insjyectors  from  different  cities  show  a  decided  difference 
in  composition  so  far  as  the  use  of  preservatives  is  concerned. 
The  dealers  of  certain  cities  evidently  have  relied  entirely  upon 
borax,  and  in  other  places  they  have  used  sulfites  as  preservatives. 
Collections  of  meat  from  the  Indianapolis  city  markets  showed  an 
almost  universal  use  of  sodium  sulfite  in  chopped  meat 

Of  twenty-one  samples  of  Hamburger  steak,  which  is  prepared 
by  mincing  scraps  of  beef,  eighteen  contained  sulfites,  which,  cal- 
culated as  sodium  sulfite,  the  salt  usually  used,  ranged  in  amount 
from  .015  per  cent,  to  .601  per  cent 

The  sulfites  are  used  for  two  reasons;  they  are  preservatives 
and  they  act  as  colorants  by  preserving  the  color  of  the  blood 
corpuscles  by  forming  oxyhaemaglobin,  which  is  of  a  bright 
red  color.  They  are  the  most  dangerous  of  all  the  preservatives 
used  in  food  products,  not  only  because  of  their  physiological 
action  on  the  individual,  but  because  they  possess  the  property  of 
masking  the  odor  and  appearance  of  decay  .so  that  putrefaction, 
usually  intelligible  to  the  senses,  is  not  noticed  until  the  meat  is  in 
an  advanced  stage  of  decomposition.  Sulfurous  acid,  or  sulfites, 
produce  a  marked  toxic  effect  on  the  individual,  even  in  doses  as 
small  as  are  employed  in  preparing  meats,  and  even  when  their 
inhibition  is  not  attended  by  apparent  ill  effect,  it  is  probable  that 
they  may  produce  kidney  lesions  of  a  serious  character.  Their 
use  is  absohitely  prohibited  by  the  German  government  and  by  the 
new  national  food  laws  of  this  country. 

The  claim  by  the  users  of  these  preservatives  that  it  is  im- 
possible to  do  without  them  and  that  their  abandonment  would 
injure  business  is  a  specious  argument,  and  endangers  the  public 
health.  The  use  of  proper  precaution  in  handling  meats,  coupled 
with  a  realization  that  meat  so  aged  that  its  odor  and  evidences  of 
decay  must  be  masked  to  appear  presentable  is  not  fit  food  for 
human  consumption,  will  make  it  possible  for  the  public  to  obtain 
wholesojne  provisions. 

It  is  probable  that  many  dealers  who  resort  to  the  use  of  pre- 
servatives do  so  under  the  impression  that  they  are  not  injurious 


Digitized  by  VjOOQIC 


285 

to  health.  This  belief  is  fostered  by  the  fact  that  they  see  no  ill 
effects  following  their  use  in  their  customers  (a  fact,  however, 
which  a  physiologist  and  post  mortem  can  alone  determine),  and 
the  extravagant  claims  for  healthfulness  advanced  by  the  manu- 
facturers of  these  vicious  products. 

As  the  result  of  the  revelations  at  the  city  market  legal  pro- 
ceedings were  instituted  against  30  of  the  dealers  selling  goods 
containing  sodium  sulfite,  and  by  agreement  of  counsel  for  the 
county  and  the  defendant,  one  case  only  was  tried.  The  results 
of  this  trial,  which  extended  over  a  week  and  which  was  bitterly 
fought  by  the  defendant  with  the  assistance  of  Chicago  lawyers 
and  the  president  of  the  comj)any  manufacturing  the  preserva- 
tive used,  was  that  the  jury  disagi-eed.  The  outcome  of  the  case, 
however,  was  that  of  a  victory  for  the  State,  since  by  the  advice 
of  their  counsel  the  dealers  in  meats  throughout  the  city  aban- 
doned at  once  the  use  of  sulfites  or  other  illegal  meat  preserva- 
tives. Later  examinations  of  meats  sold  throughout  the  city  show 
invariably  the  absence  of  sulfites.  For  a  time  much  complaint 
was  heard  that  meats  could  not  be  kept  without  them,  but  as  the 
dealers  became  accustomed  to  the  handling  of  their  meats  they 
found  that  they  had  no  difficulty  in  keeping  them  fresh  and  at- 
tractive even  when  no  chemical  preservatives  were  employed. 

Preservatives,  whether  they  be  called  Preservaline,  Antisour, 
or  by  any  other  name,  are  illegal.  The  only  preservative  agents 
permissible  in  the  curing  of  meats  are  salt,  saltpeter,  wood  smoke, 
vinegar,  sugar  and  spices.

LARD  AND  LARD  COMrOUNDS. 

Our  analyses  have  shown  that  much  of  the  lard  known  as  lard 
or  pure  leaf  lard,  contains  beef  stearine,  put  in  to  raise  its  melting 
point  and  thereby  stiffen  it.  Pure  lard  must  be  made  from  the 
melted  fat  of  the  hog  and  contain  no  added  ingredients ;  the  incor- 
poration of  beef  stearine  or  lamb  suet  constitutes  an  adulteration. 
The  compounds  made  from  cottonseed  oil  and  beef  stearine  are 
wholesome  products,  but  such  goods  must  be  sold  for  what  they  are 
and  not  as  lards.     Under  the  operation  of  the  Federal  Meat  In- 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ  IC 


293 

spcction  Law,  the  addition  of  not  to  exceed  4  per  cent,  of  lard 
stearine  will  be  allowed.  This  ruling  will  be  followed  in  this 
State. 

Of  the  42  samples  of  lard  examined  during  the  year,  27  have 
been  passed  as  pure,  while  15,  or  35.6  per  cent,  have  been  adul- 
terated, either  by  the  addition  of  cottonseed  oil  or  beef  stearine.

OUVB  OIL. 


Olive  oil  is  the  expressed  oil  of  the  mature  fruit  of  the  culti- 
vated olive  tree,  and  must  be  free  from  admixtures  of  other  vege- 
table or  animal  oils.  TJntil  within  recent  years  it  has  been  difficult 
to  purchase  pure  olive  oil,  but  at  present  there  is  little  oil  imported 
that  is  not  genuine.  Our  work  shows,  however,  that  many  of  the 
oils  on  the  Indiana  market  are  adulterated  with  cottonseed  or  pea- 
nut oil.  Of  the  188  samples  examined  56,  or  29.8  per  cent,  were 
adulterated.  Many  of  these  adulterated  goods  were  pure  cotton- 
seed oil",  prepared  and  bottled  in  this  country  under  a  foreign 
label,  that  of  "E.  Loubon  et  Cie,  K^ice,"  being  most  commonly 
used.  Many  of  the  druggists'  samples  of  olive  oil  have  been 
found  to  be  pure  cottonseed  oil,  otherwise  known  to  the  drug  trade 
as  "sweet  oil."  One  sample  marked  "Pure  Olive  Oil,"  bore  the 
following  label:  "Those  using  olive  oil  should  be  very  careful 
tx)  discriminate  between  the  medicinal  olive  oil  and  the  impure 
sweet  oil,  which  on  account  of  its  impurities  is  only  used  for 
external  and  mechanical  uses."  And  yet  the  sample  was  nothing 
but  the  sweet  oil  the  customer  is  cautioned  against  using.

PRESERVED  FRUITS,  JELLIES  AND  JAMS. 

Under  this  heading  is  put  all  products  made  from  fruit  and 
sugar,  either  cane  or  glucose,  and  including  fruit  butters,  fruit 
preserves,  fruit  jellies  and  jams,  etc. 

The  base  of  the  imitation  fruit  jelly,  jam,  etc.,  is  apple  juice 
or  apple  pulp,  obtained  principally  from  the  waste  parings  and 
cores  of  the  apple  drying  or  evaporated  apple  factory.  These 
waste  products  are  partially  dried  at  the  factory,  packed  in  bales 
or  barrels,  and  shipped  to  the  manufacturer  of  fruit  products  at 
a  very  low  cost.  Upon  arriving  at  the  factory  the  stock  is  boiled 
for  a  time  in  open  kettles  and  then  placed  in  large  closed  copper 
kettles  and  heated  by  blowing  with  superheated  steani  until  the 
clear  apple  juice  drains  out  of  the  mass  to  the  bottom  of  the  kettle. 
It  is  then  drawn  off  into  tanks  and  serves  as  stock  for  making  all 
varieties  of  jellies  and  preserved  fruits. 

For  the  production  of  a  satisfactory  jelly  or  jam  large  quanti- 
ties of  sugar  are  necessary  for  jellifying  and  preserving  the  fruit. 
The  cost  of  this  sugar  contributes  largely  to  the  cost  of  manufac- 
ture. Cheaper  sugars  in  the  form  of  glucose  and  glucose  syrup  are 
therefore  employed  as  a  substitute  for  cane  sugar.  Glucose  is  a 
wholesome  and  nutritious  article  of  food,  and  no  objection  can  be 
made  to  its  use  except  that  products  containing  it  are  sold  at 
prices  not  warranted  by  their  actual  cost.  In  some  cases  sac- 
charin, a  coal  tar  product  of  no  food  value  but  of  great  sweetening 
power,  is  used  where  a  very  sweet  article  is  desired.    Saccharin

has  antiseptic  properties  which  make  its  use  profitable.  Its  in- 
fluence on  the  system  is  not  determined  and  its  employment  is  not 
allowable.  !  | 

The  apple  juice  and  glucose  syrup  are  mixed  in  the  necessary 
proportions,  colored  with  a  coal  tar  dye  to  counterfeit  the  genuine 
product;  flavored  with  compound  ethers,  synthetic  fruit  ethers, 
technically  known  as  ethyl  buterate,  amyl  acetate,  etc. ;  preserved 
by  the  addition  of  benzoate  of  soda  or  salicylate  of  soda,  and  ul- 
timately placed  upon  the  market  as  pure  currant,  raspberry,  or 
strawberry  jelly. 

Foreign  coloring  matter  is  employed  in  preparing  fruit  prod- 
ucts for  two  reasons:  one  is  that  the  color  of  fruit  is  not  very 
stable  and  is  liable  to  be  destroyed  during  the  process  of  preserv- 
ing, and,  furthermore,  that  goods  packed  in  glass  will  lose  their 
color  when  constantly  exposed  to  the  light  on  the  grocer's  shelves. 
The  other  reason  for  the  use  of  dye  colors  is  that  they  enable  tlie 
niamifaclurcT  to  use  fruit  of  deficient  color  and  thus  to  conceal 
inferiority.  Apple  stock  uncolored  is  readily  distinguished,  but 
when  dyed  a  Irilliant  crimson  passes  to  the  eye  of  the  inexperi- 
enced buyer  for  the  genuine  fruit  color.  The  preservation  of  this 
color  is  important,  a?  the  value  of  the  jelly  or  jam  f«,i*  table  use 
or  in  the  sick  n  om  is  doubtless  enhanced  by  the  attractiveness  of 
its  coloring,  i)nt  the  possibility  for  deception  as  to  quality  and 
purity  afforded  by  the  use  of  coloring  matter  overbalances  any 
argument  in  its  favor.  By  the  judicious  use  of  coal  tar  colors 
apple  jellies  flavored  with  small  quantities  of  the  true  fruit,  or 
by  the  artificial  fruit  ethers,  can  be  given  the  appearance  of  the 
genuine  article,  or  a  cheap  fruit  or  a  vegetable  pulp  can  be  mixed 
into  a  jam,  and  jellies  made  from  glucose  and  starch  may  be 
served  to  consumers  who  demand  pure  goods. 

The  harmfulness  of  the  coal  tar  dyes  depends  on  their  composi- 
tion. Many  of  them  are  quite  innocuous,  but  are  always  liable  to 
contain  metallic  impurities,  such  as  zinc,  copper,  tin,  lead,  and 
arsenic  retained  during  the  process  of  manufacture.  Others  are 
distinctly  injurious  and  entirely  unsuitable  for  use  in  food 
products. 

The  cheap  food  products  have  imdoubtedly  become  a  necessity 
in  the  homes  of  the  poor,  where  they  have  supplanted,  to  a  large 
degree,,  more  x»ostly  forms  of  food.    But  the  apparent  demand  for 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


299 

low-priced  food  does  not  amount  to  a  license  to  the  manufacturer 
to  place  adulterated  goods  on  our  market  nor  authorize  him  to 
lower,  still  further,  the  cOaSt  of  production  by  making  entirely 
fraudulent  articles  that  would  not  command  a  sale  at  any  price 
if  honestly  labeled  and  sold  for  what  they  were. 

The  custom  of  labeling  jellies  made  from  apple  stock  with 
some  trade  name  that  does  not  in  any  way  lead  the  purchaser  to 
suppose  he  is  getting  something  which  he  is  not  is  becoming  more 
common.  The  sale  of  the  cheap  and  wholesome  apple  jellies  is 
thus  placed  on  an  honest  basis  and  relieves  the  trade  of  the  re- 
sponsibility incurred  by  meeting  the  demand  for  cheap .  goods 
with  baso  imitations. 

Compo\md  fruit  products  can  legally  be  sold  if  they  are  labeled 
&#;*Frnit  Tellies"  instead  of  ''Currant,"  ''Strawberry"  jellies,  etc. 
and  if  they  bear  a  formula  correctly  stating  the  name  and  per- 
centage of  the  ingredients  used  in  their  production.  Of  the  119 
samples  examined  97,  or  81.5  per  cent,  have  been  illegal.  Some 
of  these  goods  were  meant  to  be  the  pure  article,  but  the  majority 
of  them  were  imitations.  In  many  instances  the  manufacturer  had 
evidently  attempted  to  mark  properly  his  goods,  but  notwith- 
standing this  he  had  failed  to  comply  with  all  the  details  of  the 
labeling  clause.

PRESERVED  FRUITS  PUT  UP  IN  TIN  PACKAGE. 

We  have  examined  13  samples  of  fruits,  blackberries,  straw- 
berries, etc,  put  up  in  tin.  All  of  the  samples  were  pure,  con- 
taining neither  coloring  matter  or  added  preservatives.  The 
difference  in  character  between  goods  put  up  in  glass  and  those 
put  up  in  tin  is  very  apparent.

CANNED  GOODS.  VEGETABLES. 

One  of  the  leading  staples  of  the  modem  grocery  store  and  an 
essential  of  every  well-stocked  larder  is  an  assortment  of  canned 
v^tables.  These  goods  are  put  up  in  tin  and  sterilized  by  heat 
and  will  keep  indefinitely  in  any  climate,  thus  providing  the 
table  with  apparently  fresh  vegetables  when  they  are  long  out  of 
season  or  can  not  be  obtained.  Of  the  20  samples  of  sweet  com 
analyzed,  15  were  pure,  free  from  preservatives,  saccharin  or 
bleach.  Four  contained  saccharin  and  one  sample  was  a  field 
com  boiled  until  soft  and  mixed  with  com  meal  gruel.  It  was 
solid  in  the  can  and  possessed  none  of  the  qualities  of  a  sweet  com. 

Canners  and  packers  are  accustomed  to  regulate  the  value  of 
their  output  by  increasing  or  diminishing  the  quantity  of  water 
in  which  the  goods  are  packed.  The  least  quantity  of  water  found 
was  61  per  cent,  and  the  largest  amount  82.6  per  cent  That  is, 
the  first  sample  contained  89  per  cent  of  solid  matter,  the  second 
17.4  per  cent,  or  less  than  one-half  as  much.  The  weight  of  the 
ocmtentB  of  the  cans  varied  from  567  to  616  grams.

Of  the  ten  samples  of  canned  peas  examined  five  were  pure 
and  five  adulterated.  One  sample  was  a  "soaked"  pea,  that  is, 
made  by  swelling  up  dried  peas  and  canning  them  as  fresh, 
though  it  is  obvious  that  goods  so  packed  lack  the  fresh,  succulent 
flavor  which  makes  the  v^etable  desirable. 

Four  samples  contained  saccharin.  Some  years  ago  saccharin 
was  extensively  used  by  packers,  but  at  present  no  up-to-date 
house  relies  on  this  coal  tar  sweetener  as  a  substitute  for  sugar. 
None  of  the  peas  were  colored  with  salts  of  copper.  The  use  of 
copper  in  greening  vegetables  is  not  an  American  trick  and  most 
of  the  goods  so  colored  are  of  French  origin. 

All  of  the  canned  tomatoes  were  pure,  free  from  added  color 
and  preservative. 

Two  of  the  three  baked  beans  w^re  pure.  One  contained 
saccharin.  The  same  ratio  of  adulteration  was  found  in  the 
canned  beans,  one  sample  of  which  was  sweetened  with  saccharin. 

Four  of  the  six  samples  of  mushrooms  were  illegal,  two  because 
of  the  presence  of  sulphurous  acid,  one  because  it  was  sour  and 
one  sample  consisted  of  pieces  and  stems. 

Two  of  the  five  samples  of  asparagus  contained  small  quanti- 
ties of  sulphurous  acid.

SPIOBS. 

At  the  time  of  the  opening  of  the  Laboratory,  if  the  statements 
of  wholesalers  in  spices  are  to  be  believed,  the  Indiana  public  did 
not  know  the  character  of  pure  spices,  and  was  only  content  when 
supplied  with  imitation  goods  which  contained  so  much  starch, 
ground  cocoanut  shells  and  sawdust  that  the  most  susceptible 
palate  would  not  respond  unless  tempted  with  teaspoonful  doses. 

We  were  informed  that  if  pure,  full  strength  goods  were  sold, 
the  consumer  would  return  them  because  their  strong  characteristic 
flavor  excited  his  suspicions. 

The  results  of  the  examination  of  248  samples  of  spices  cor- 
roborated in  a  measure  this  statement  of  the  trade. 

In  the  January  Bulletin  of  this  year  we  said : 

"Of  68  samples  of  ground  cloves  purchased  from  drug  stores 
22,  or  32.4  per  cent.,  were  adulterated  by  reason  of  added  cocoa- 
nut  shells,  dirt,  etc.,  while  of  52  samples  collected  from  grocery 
stores  25,  or  48.1  per  cent.,  were  impure. 

"One  sample  of  ground  cloves  consisted  of  wheat  starch,  cayenne 
pepper  and  a  small  amount  of  cloves,  and  other  samples  were  al- 
most entirely  cocoanut  shells. 

"Twenty-three  samples  of  ground  mustard  were  examined  and 
seven  proved  to  be  grossly  adulterated  with  wheat  or  com  starch 
colored  with  turmeric. 

"Seven  samples  of  capsicum,  or  cayenne  pepper,  out  of  22  ex- 
amined were  adulterated. 

"But  the  pepper  samples  were  most  heavily  adulterated  and  of 
84  samples  analyzed  47,  or  55.0  per  cent,  were  impure. 

"Ground  olive  stones  are  evidently  the  chief  adulterant,  al- 
though the  various  starches  are  much  used.  Some  samples  con- 
tained ground  olive  stones,  wheat  and  buckwheat  flour,  together 
with  a  small  percentage  of  pepper." 

Our  analyses  of  spices  collected  the  summer  following  the  open- 
ing of  the  Laboratory  showed  a  very  great  difference  in  the  qual- 
ity of  the  spices  sold ;  but  six  of  52  black  peppers  and  one  of  35 
cloves  were  impure.  This  remarkable  improvement  is  due  to  the 
position  taken  by  the  wholesalers  and  spice  grinders  of  Indiana, 
who  since  the  publication  of  our  first  analyses  have  refused  to 
handle  other  than  pure  goods.    Their  repeated  statement  that  the

spice  business  has  never  been  better  than  during  the  last  year 
is  a  sufficient  denial  of  their  former  argument  that  pure  spices 
were  not  in  demand  by  their  customers. 

It  is  only  fair  to  the  manufacturers  to  say  that  the  analyses  fol- 
lowing were  made  on  old  goods,  probably  put  in  stock  by  the  re- 
tailer before  the  pure  food  law  went  into  actual  effect.

TOMATO  CATSUPS. 

We  have  examined  75  samples  of  tomato  catsup  and  found  67, 
or  89.3  per  cent.,  to  be  adulterated.  The  adulteration  in  many 
instances  was  due  to  the  use  of  benzoate  of  soda  as  a  preservative 
without  declaring  the  fact  on  the  label.  Other  samples  contained 
coal-tar  dye  or  an  excess  of  starch.  Under  the  ruling  of  the  State 
Board  of  Health  one-tenth  of  one  per  cent  of  benzoate  of  soda  can 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


he  used  in  making  tomato  catsup  if  the  fact  of  its  presence  is 
stated  on  the  label,  but  coal-tar  dye  or  other  dye  is  not  allowable. 
Tomato  catsup  naturally  made  is  broTm  in  color,  and  the  unnat- 
ural desire  on  the  part  of  the  consumer  for  a  highly  colored  prod- 
uct, together  with  the  fact  that  the  use  of  color  made  it  possible 
to  employ  green  and  inferior  stock,  induced  the  manufacturer  to 
resort  to  artificial  color.  At  the  present  time,  however,  the  public 
taste  has  completely  changed,  and  all  high  grade  catsups  are  now 
sold  uncolored.  The  use  of  starch  as  a^  filler  and  of  saccharin  as 
a  sweetener  is  both  illegal  and  unnecessary.  Several  bottTes  of  ar- 
tificial goods  bore  a  compound  label  which  was  pasted  directly  on 
the  bottom  of  the  package  in  such  a  way  that  its  presence  would 
not  likely  be  detected.  Such  labeling  is  an  evasion  of  the  law  as 
the  goods  might  as  well  bear  no  label  whatever.

BEERS,  WINES  AND  SUMMER  DRINKS. 

WTiile  certain  classes  of  beverages,  notably  those  containing 
greater  or  less  quantities  of  alcohol,  are  consumed  throughout  the 
year,  during  the  hot  summer  months  the  x)eople  demand  a  light, 
refreshing,  attractive  beverage  that  is  not  consumed  at  other  sea- 
sons. In  the  summer  months,  too,  the  consumption  of  malt  li- 
quors is  largely  increased.  The  number  and  variety  of  the  sum- 
mer drinks  is  very  large.  For  the  most  part  they  are  produced 
by  bottlers  and  dealers  who  supply  the  local  market,  although  cer- 
tain of  the  fruit  juices  have  obtained  a  widespread  sale  through-

328 

out  the  country.  In  order  to  determine  the  purity  of  these  sum- 
mer drinks  we  have  collected  and  analyzed  many  samples  of  the 
products  sold  on  the  Indianapolis  market  The  results  of  our 
anal^^ses  follow  the  remarks  under  each  class  described  below, 

BEER. 

The  production  of  malt  liquors  in  this  country  as  an  industry 
is  second  only  in  importance  to  the  production  of  breadstuffs. 
Their  consumption  is  steadily  on  the  increase,  as  is  also  the  amount 
consumed  in  proportion  to  other  kinds  of  alcoholic  beverages. 
Beer  is  prepared  largely  from  malted  grain,  usually  barley,  al- 
though other  substances,  such  as  com,  rice  and  glucose,  frequently 
enter  into  its  composition.  Properly  defined,  beer  is  a  beverage 
produced  by  alcoholic  fermentation  from  a  hopped  infusion,  either 
of  malted  cereals,  preferably  malted  barley  exclusively,  or  with 
the  addition  of  unmalted  or  prepared  cereals.  Besides  the  malt 
and  sugars  which  enter  into  the  composition  of  beer,  and  which, 
in  the  form  of  infusions,  are  converted  by  yeast  into  alcohol,  hops 
are  also  employed  to  give  a  palatable  bitter  to  the  product  Be- 
sides the  malt  or  some  fermentable  sugar  and  the  hops  no  other 
constituent  should  be  present.  The  chemical  composition  of  the 
finished  product  is,  however,  very  complex,  the  principal  con- 
stituents being  alcohol,  various  sugars  and  carbohydrates,  nitro- 
genous matter,  carbonic,  acetic,  succinic,  lactic,  malic,  and  tannic 
acids,  bitter  and  resinous  extractive  matter  from  the  hops,  glycer- 
ine and  various  mineral  constituents,  consisting  mainly  of  phos- 
phates of  the  alkalies  and  alkali  earths. 

The  names  given  to  different  kinds  of  malt  liquors  relate  to 
various  attributes,  as  the.  country  where  they  were  produced,  as 
English,  German,  Bavarian  beer,  etc.  Thus  porter  Is  simply  a 
beer  of  high  percentage  of  alcohol  and  made  from  malt  dried  at 
a  somewhat  high  temperature,  which  gives  it  its  dark  color.  Ale 
is  a  pale  beer,  likewise  of  high  attenuation  and  made  of  pale  malt, 
with  more  hop  extract  than  porter.  Stout  has  less  alcohol  and 
more  extract  and  still  less  hops  than  porter.  These  terms  are  used 
chiefly  with  reference  to  English  malt  liquors.  The  terms  used 
for  German  beers,  such  as  Erl anger,  Munchener,  etc,  are  for  the 
most  part  names  of  places,  and  are  applied  to  beers  made  in  im-

itation  of  the  beers  originally  brewed  in  those  cities.  Export 
beer  is  beer  that  is  specially  prepared  with  a  Tiew  to  long-keeping 
qualities. 

The  analyses  made  at  this  Laboratory  comprise  27  samples, 
this  number  being  about  all  of  the  different  brands  and  varieties 
of  beer  obtainable  in  Indianapolis.  The  analyses  were  made  prin- 
cipally for  the  purpose  of  determining  the  extent  and  nature  of 
their  adulteration  or  the  tise  of  antiseptic  and  preservative  agents. 
As  a  basis  for  determining  adulteration,  however,  it  is  necessary 
to  know  the  chemical  composition  of  the  sample,  and  for  that  rea- 
son a  complete  analyses  of  all  the  beers  has  been  made.  Besults 
of  the  analyses  show  very  little  adulteration  either  in  imported  or 
domestic  beers.  Several  of  the  samples  examined,  namely,  Nos. 
,  ,    and  ,  contain  sul'phurous.acid  or  sulphites; 
none  contained  benzoic  or  salicylic  acids,  and  but  one  sample, 
which  was  a  Weiss  beer,  contained  saccharin.  An  examination  of 
the  tabulated  results  shows  that  none  of  the  beers  departed  widely 
in  composition  from  the  normal  products.  The  imported  beers 
have  a  high  alcohol  and  extract  content,  and  were  brewed  from  a 
much  heavier  wort  than  were  the  domestic  beers.  From  a  chemical 
standpoint  the  domestic  beers  were  very  uniform  in  composition, 
there  being  no  great  difference  in  either  the  alcohol  or  extract 
content

MALT  EXTRACTS. 

True  malt  extract  is  a  synipy  fluid  made  by  extracting  and 
digesting  coarsely  powdered  malt  with  water  and  evaporating  the 
strained  liquid  to  the  consistency  of  thick  syrup.  Such  an  extract 
contains  at  least  70  per  cent,  of  maltose  and  converts  starch  very 
rapidly.  At  the  present  there  are  on  the  market  a  very  large  num- 
ber of  so-called  malt  extracts  which  are  widely  advertised  as  a 
tonic  and  nonintoxicating  malt  food.  These  extracts  are,  for  the 
most  part,  simply  heavy  beers,  containing  considerable  quantities 
of  alcohol  and  extract  and  no  diastase.  Two  of  the  three  samples 
of  so-called  malt  extract  examined  contained  5  per  cent  of  alcohol 
each  and,  8  per  cent,  and  over  of  extract,  largely  maltose.  In 
other  respects  the  samples  were  merely  heavy  beers.  The  third 
sample  analyzed  was  of  quite  different  composition,  being  low  in 
alcohol  and  high  in  extract

WINES. 


American  wines  are  rapidly  becoming  known  for  their  excellent 
qualities  and  are  competing  with  European  brands  for  a  reputa- 
tion.    That  there  are  many  imitation  wines  on  the  market  has 
been  comlnon  knowledge,  but  the  most  pessimistic  observer  would 
hardly  wish  to  concede  that  more  than  50  per  cent  of  the  cheap 
wines  never  saw  a  grape.     The  results  of  the  analyses  of    20 
samples  of  wines  purchased  at  drug  stores  and  grocery  stores  show 
this  to  be  a  fact     The  first  seven  samples  analyzed  were  wholly 
artificial  products.     They  were  made  by  soaking  fruits,  possibly 
raisins,  fortifying  the  extracts  with  12  to  15  per  cent  of  alcohol, 
adding  large  quantities  of  glucose,  in  one  instance  over  20  per 
cent,  and  in  addition  sweetening  with  saccharin  to  further  de- 
velop the  sweet  taste.     These  samples  contain  salicylic  acid  and 
benzoate  of  soda  as  well  as  the  saccharin,  which  is  of  itself  a  pre- 
servative.    Evidently  the  original  maker  used  a  preservative  to 
stop  fermentation,  and  then  the  bottler  used  some  more  preserva- 
tive of  a  different  character  to  keep  the  goods  after  they  had  left 
his  hands.     The  two  blackberry  cordials  examined  were  entirely 
artificial,  and  consisted  of  glucose  syrup  colored  with  coal-tar  dye 
and  preserved  with  aalicyly;  acid  and  benzoate  of  soda,  flavored 
with  sjTithetic  flavors  to  counterfeit  the  missing  blackberry.    Wine 
has  been  adulterated  for  2,000  years,  but  the  harvest  time  of  the 
manufacturer  of  artificial  goods  is  evidently  the  present.     An  at- 
tractively labeled  bottle  marked  "Purity  Guaranteed,"  and  filled 
with  a  decoction  of  salicylic  acid,  benzoate  of  soda,  saccharin,  glu- 
cose, grain  alcohol,  synthetic  flavors,  glycerine,  coal-tar  dye  and 
water,  meets  a  ready  sale  af^  pure  California  port  or  sherry,  de- 
pending upon  the  aromatic  employed. 

Samples  Nos.  ,  17S3,  ,  854S,  37S8,  o789  and   
are  evidently  grape  products  of  a  fair  degree  of  purity,  although 
of  poor  quality.  Ifost  of  them  contain  either  saccharin  or  some 
preservative  which  necessitates  tlieir  being  classed  as  illegal. 

Samples  TSTos.  ,    and    are  evidently  pure  and 
free  from  any  preservatives  or  saccharin.

GINGER  ALES. 

Ginger  ale  is  a  nonalcoholic  beverage  made  by  carbonating  a 
dilute  solution  of  extract  of  ginger,  sugar  and  some  simple  acid 
in  water.  It  is  a  pleasant  and  refreshing  beverage  when  properly 
prepared.  The  formula  employed  and  the  method  of  preparation 
varies  greatly  with  the  different  manufacturers.  Examination  of 
the  analyses  shows  very  little  uniformity  of  composition.  The 
amount  of  residue 'on  evaporation  varies  from  3  to  20  per  cent 
and  the  sucrose  content  from  nothing  to  8.44  per  cent.  Since  a 
sweet  drink  is  desired,  many  of  the  manufacturers  resort  to  the 
use  of  saccharin  to  develop  this  taste,  since  saccharin  is  much  less 
expensive  than  sugar  and  is  not  fermentable  but  is  in  itself  a  pre- 
servative. The  use  of  saccharin  is  condemned  by  most  medical  au- 
thorities and  all  food  experts.  It  was  formerly  much  used  by  can- 
ners  and  packers  ofn^^etables,  such  as  tomatoes,  sweet  com,  etc, 
but  at  the  present  time  it  is  no  longer  employed  by  reputable  man- 
ufacturers. It  has  no  place  in  the  manufacture  of  a  summer  drink 
and  its  use  should  be  discontinued.  One  sample  was  preserved 
with  salicylic  acid  and  one  was  colored  with  dinitrocresol.

MISCELLANEOUS  FRUlt  BEVERAGES. 

&#;  Three  of  the  four  ciders  analyzed  were  preserved  with  either 
benzoic  or  salicyKc  acid  and  the  fourth  sample  was  entirely 
artificial;  three  of  the  five  grape  juices  contained  sulfurous  or 
salicylic  acid.  Of  the  four  lime  juices  examined  three  were  of 
full  strength  and  free  from  preservatives.  Of  the  four  root  beers 
analyzed  three  were  free  from  preservatives,  saccharin  or  glucose. 
One  of  the  samples  contained  40.96  milligrams  of  SOg  per  liter, 
which  had  evidently  been  added  as  an  antiseptic.

CARBONATED  SOFT  DRINKS. 

Included  under  this  title  is  a  variety  of  products  made  by  the  use 
of  various  syrups  and  carbonated  water.  Some  of  them  are  plain 
sugar  syrups  flavored  with  lemon  or  vanilla.  Others  purport  to 
be  made  from  fruit  syrups,  such  as  strawberries,  raspberries,  etc. 
Still  others  sold  as  tonics  contain  various  root  extracts.  While 
the  composition  of  these  drinks  varies  widely,  yet  one  fact  is 
very  noticeable &#; ^nearly  all  of  them  contain  large  quantities  of 
saccharin  and  veiy  small  quantities  of  cane  sugar.  K"o  preserva- 
tives were  preseirt  in  any  of  the  samples ;  indeed,  the  large  amount 
of  saccharin  used  obviated  the  necessity  for  sugar  syrup  and  of 
itself  assisted  in  arresting  fermentation.  The  analyses  of  these 
samples  are  given  in  full  for  the  purpose  of  supplying  data  con- 
cerning the  much  used  summer  drinks.

VINEGARS. 


Cider, &#; ^It  has  many  times  been  asserted  by  those  engaged  in 
enforcing  pure  food  laws  that  vinegars  are  subject  to  adulteration 
.to  an  extent  perhaps  greater  than  is  the  case  with  any  other  ar- 
ticle of  food. 

Analyses  of  samples  of  vinegar  collected  from  every  part  of 
Indiana  oflFer  good  evidence,  that,  in  this  State,  at  least,  the  state- 
ment is  not  overdrawn. 

Two  hundred  and  thirty-nine  samples  of  cider  vin^ar  were 
analyzed  and  187  were  foimd  to  be  adulterated. 

Of  adulterated  samples  157  were  artificial  and  30  were  below 
the  standard  required  for  cider  vinegars,  in  acidity  or  solids,  or 
both. 

The  striking  fact  to  be  noticed  in  the  summary  of  results  is 
that  nearly  80  per  cent,  of  the  vinegars  examined  were  adulterated, 
a  finding  which  is  remarkable  in  view  of  the  fact  that  our  State  is 
well  able  to  make  every  gallon  of  vinegar  consumed  within  it. 
The  home  product  is  displaced  by  the  artificial,  acetic  acid  solu- 
tion, colored  with  caramel,  to  the  loss  of  the  farmer  or  local  man- 
ufacturer, and  the  defrauding  of  the  consumer  who  pays  cider 
vinegar  prices  for  a  cheap,  spurious  product,  lacking  all  the  pe- 
culiar aroma  and  delicate  flavor  which  has  given  cider  vinegar  its 
reputation. 

When  the  standard  of  acidity  and  solids  is  fixed  all  vinegars 
which  do  not  come  up  to  the  standard  are  adulterated,  and  the 
manufacturer  or  dealer  in  such  an  article  is  liable  for  violation  of 
the  pure  food  laws.  The  practice  of  saving  the  first  pressing  from 
apple  pomace  for  cider  and  then  wetting  down  the  exhausted 
cheese  with  water  before  a  second  pressing  produces  a  diluted  cider 
which  is  low  in  solids  and  malic  acid  and  which  will  never  make 
good  vinegar.  Imperfect  acetification  is  regularly  met  with. 
In  such  cases  the  vinegar  has  not  been  sufficiently  aged  or 
has  been  kept  out  of  access  to  air.  The  oxidation  of  alco- 
hol to  acetic  acid  can  only  take  place  in  the  presence  of  a  liberal 
supply  of  oxygen,  and  vinegar  makers  should  not  expect  that  cider 
put  into  a  cool  cellar  in  unvented  barrels  will  make  vinegar. 

The  quality  of  a  vinegar  is  sometimes  injured  by  an  abnormal 
fermentation  or  the  development  of  moulds,  or  by  the  presence  of

vinegar  eels  (Angiiillula  Oxophila).  Foreign  substances  are  oc- 
casionally accidentally  introduced  into  vinegar  which  injure  its 
color  or  render  it  injurious  to  health.  The  common  practice  of 
using  as  a  funnel  a  wooden  bucket  with  a  lead  tube  or  of  em- 
ploying a  lead  spigot,  leads  to  the  formation  of  sugar  of  lead  . 
(lead  acetate),  which  is. an  active  poison. 

The  manufacturers  of  artificial  vinegars  are  all  located  outside 
the  State  where  we  have  been  unable  to  reach  them  except  by 
correspondence.  The  business  methods  of  some  of  these  firms  are 
nefarious,  and  the  opportunity  that  will  be  given  us  under  the  new 
Federal  law  for  keeping  products  of  such  firms  off  our  markets, 
will  afford  us  a  welcome  relief.  One  firm  in  particular,  the 
"Red  Cross  Cider  &  Vinegar  Co.,"  of  St.  Louis,  has  been  a  per- 
sistent violator  of  the  law.  Their  method  has  been  to  send  a 
salesman  through  the  state  offering  to  sell  a  quantity  of  cider 
vinegar  at  a  price  somewhat  below  the  market  price,  and  to  throw 
in  one  barrel  with  every  six  purchased.  A  guarantee  of  purity  is 
pasted  on  every  barrel  which  covers  the  entire  head  and  reads 
thus :  ' 

"NOTICE. 

We  will  forfeit  $100.00  for  every  barrel  of  vin- 
egar bearing  this  certificate  that  is  not  the  product 
of  pure  apple  juice.  This  vinegar  is  pure,  fer- 
mented apple  juice  and  is  warranted  to  more  than 
fill  the  requirements  of  the  pure  food  laws. 

The  Red  Cross  Vin^ar  Co." 

This  guarantee  and  the  strong  assertion  of  the  salesman  has 
convinced  many  dealers  that  their  goods  were  genuine.  In  fact 
in  some  instances  the  first  few  barrels  shipped  have  been  pure,  al- 
though the  last  consignment  was  invariably  a  fictitious  article. 
These  artificial  vinegars,  while  formerly  simply  colored  distilled 
vinegar,  are  now  very  skillfully  made;  the  dealers,  starting  with  a 
distilled  stock,  add  apple  solids,  salts  of  potash,  malic  acid,  phos- 
phoric acid,  or  some  other  substance  that  produces  a  heavy  precip- 
itation with  lead  acetate;  sugars,  colors  and  flavoring  essences, 
until  their  blend  not  only  resembles  cider  vinegar  in  appearance 
and  flavor,  but  has  most  of  "its  chemical  characteristics.  It  is 
impossible  for  the  honest  manufacturer  or  dealer  in  cider  vinegar 
to  compete  with  these  spurious  articles.

MALT  VINEGAR. 

The  practice  of  selling  colored  distilled  or  spirit  vinegar  for  a 
malt  vinegar  is  very  common.  A  charitable  explanation  of  this 
violation  of  the  law  is  that  long  continued  trade  in  the  imitation 
product  has  in  a  way  fixed  the  name  of  "Malt"  on  the  colored 
distilled  vinegar,  although  it  should  be  applied  only  to  nondis- 
tilled  goods  made  by  the  alcoholic  and  acetous  fermentation  of 
grain  infusions. 

Of  the  20  samples  of  malt  vinegar  examined,  but  four  were 
genuine  malt  vinegar,  the  rest  were  simply  colored  distilled  vine- 
gars.

GRAIN  VINEGAR. 


Grain  vinegar  is  iincolored  distilled  vinegar.  Ten  of  the  15 
grain  vinegars  analyzed  were  illegal,  either  because  of  the  addi- 
tion of  caramel  color  or  an  acidity  below  the  4  per  cent  standard.

M1SCELI4ANE0US  FOOD  PRODUCTS. 

Under  this  head  is  placed  a  variety  of  subjects  such  as  obesily 
cures,  soda  fountain  syrups,  coffee  essences,  vegetable  butters, 
sausage  fillers,  junket  tablets,  pudding  preparations,  table  sauces, 
etc  Of  the  80  articles  of  this  class  17,  or  21  per  cent,  were 
ill^aL 

DRUGS. 

Drugs  are  primarily  intended  for  the  cure  of  disease  or  the  cor- 
rection of  abnormal  conditions.  While  food  adulteration  is  an 
economic  fraud  and  rarely  works  an  injury  to  the  health  of  the 
consumer,  the  adulteration  of  drugs,  either  by  lessening  their 
strength  or  adding  foreign  ingredients,  places  in  the  hand  of  the 
physician  an  inferior  article  not  adapted  for  the  use  to  which  it 
is  put  .  When  such  drugs  are  used  in  the  treatment  of  disease  the 
adulteration  becomes  dangerous.  A  preparation  of  morphine  may 
be  prescribed  by  a  physician  for  the  relief  of  pain,  the  dose  is 
fixed ;  if  results  are  not  forthcoming  because  of  the  adtlteration  or 
the  weakening  of  the  strength  of  the  article,  the  dose  is  increased. 
When  the  bottle  is  empty  the  prescription  may  be  refilled,  this 
time  with  a  full  strengtli  article.  If  the  patient,  thinking  the  drug 
is  the  same  as  before,  takes  a  double  dose,  serious  results  will 
fallow.  Again,  if  the  physician  who  prescribes  a  certain  drug  does 
not  get  the  results  he  expects  with  his  patient,  he  may  change  the 
prescription  entirely,  when  all  the  fault  may  be  due  to  an  adultera- 
tion of  the  medicine  in  question.  Certain  classes  of  drugs  are  very 
liable  to  adulteration;  indeed,  some  things  which  are  pharma- 
copoeia preparations  are  rarely  or  never  carried  in  stock  by  drug- 
gists as  pure  articles.  This  is  true  of  blnck  antimony,  precipitated 
sulphur,  and  beeswax.  Other  goods  frequently  called  for 
both  by  prescriptions  and  customers  are  very  liable  to  be  of  in- 
ferior strength.  The  tinctures  prepared  by  the  dispenser  we 
have  found  to  be  frequently  l^elow  standard.  The  same  is  true  of 
many  of  the  extracts ;  on  the  other  hand  chemicals,  such  as  potas- 
sium iodide,  Eochelle  salts,  sodium  phosphate,  zinc  sulphate, 
boric  acid,  cream  of  tartar,  etc.,  are  evidently  not  adulterated. 

Two  conditions  operate  against  the  sale  of  pure  drugs.  The  first 
is  the  fault  of  the  druggist  himself  who  may  either  be  unfamiliar

with  the  preparation  of  the  articles  he  dispenses,  or  who  dele- 
gates to  boys  or  untrained  clerks  the  preparation  of  medicines 
which  can  only  successfully  be  produced  by  a  skilled  pharmacist. 
Secondly,  the  lack  of  care  in  the  purchase  of  stock.  While  the 
wholesalers  for  the  most  part  carry  pure  lines  of  goods,  there  are 
some  concerns  (fortunately  for  the  honor  of  the  drug-  trade  in 
Indiana  located  outside  the  State),  that  make  a  practice  of  supply- 
ing low  grade,  cut  rate  drugs  which  they  know  to  be  impure 
when  they  sell  them.  The  grocer  may  excuse  the  sale  of  adul- 
terated goods  on  the  plea  that  his  customers  want  cheap  things, 
but  the  druggist  has  no  such  excuse.  Realizing  that  the  prepara- 
tions that  he  dispenses  are  to  be  used  as  medicine,  usually  by 
people  not  familiar  with  the  drug  they  are  taking,  it  becomes  his 
duty  to  see  that  the  drugs  he  sells  are  of  normal  strength  and 
purity.  The  selling  of  patent  medicines  and  fraudulent  remedies 
which  purport  to  be  curealls  and  relief  for  every  disease,  has  never 
been  regulate<l  in  Indiaixa.  Enormous  (juantities  of  worthless 
mixtures  of  alcohol  or  bad  whisky  with  caramel  and  bitters,  or 
even  preparations  containing  morphine,  oj^ium,  heroin,  cocaine 
and  habit  forming  drugs,  are  sold  without  restriction.  The  use 
of  cocaine  is  on  the  increase  among  the  pof)reT  classes,  especially 
among  the  negroes.  The  habit  is  formed  by  tlie  use  of  so-called 
catarrh  cures  which  are,  in  fact,  nothing  but  cocaine  preparations 
put  up  and  sold  for  the  purpose  of  satisfying  the  cravings  of  the 
'cocaine  fiend.  Fortunately  for  the  people,  the  Federal  Food  and 
Drug  Law  which  (compels  the  ])lacing  on  the  lal)el  of  every  pack- 
age containing  alcohol,  morphine,  opium,  cocaine,  heroin,  chloro- 
form, chloral  h3'drate,  and  acetanilide,  a  statement  of  the  quantity 
of  such  ingredients  present,  will  make  it  clear  t/O  the  purchaser 
what  he  is  buying  and  will  tend  to  sup])ress  the  manufacture  and 
sale  of  a  large  number  of  worthless  preparations.  During  the 
year  there  have  been  collected  and  analyzed  1,559  samples  of 
drugs.  Of  this  numl.)er  50(5  have  l)een  pure  and  9G3,  or  02.5  per 
cent.,  adulterated.  This  percentage  of  adulteration  is  very  high 
and  indicates  either  a  demoralized  drug  market  or  extreme  care- 
le-ssness  on  the  part  of  the  druggist  and  dealer.

ALCOHOL. 

Thirty-two  of  the  132  samples  of  alcohol  analyzed  were  impure 
or  below  standard.  In  almost  every  case  the  alcohols  were  but 
slightly  below  the  pharmacopoeia  standard  of  94.9  per  cent  by 
volume.  One  sample  only  was  diluted  with  water  and  in  no  case 
was  methyl  alcohol  substituted  for  the  grain  alcohol  purchased.

AQUA  AISIMONIA. 

U.  S.  p.  Aqua  Amnionia  contains  10  per  cent,  bv  weight  of 
^aseoHS  aninionia.  Of  the  75  samples  examined,  Avliieh  were  col- 
lected from  both  drnc:  ^nd  grocery  stores,  but  seven  were  up  to 
strength;  00.8  per  cent,  were  weak,  dilute  solutions,  ranging  from 
20  to  90  per  cent.  T^.  S.  P.  strength.  The  so-called  aimnonia  water 
dispense<l  by  gi'oc(*rs  for  laundry  purjXKses  is  rarely  or  never  as 
strong  as  it  should  b^.  There  is  always  some  l^ss  of  strength  as 
the  stock  grows  old,  but  it  is  eA'id(»nt  that  the  chief  cause  of 
weakness  is  not  due  to  deterioration  but  to  wilful  dilution  with 
water  in  the  endeavor  to  produce  a  cheap  article,  to  satisfy  the 
demand  of  an  ignorant  public  for  a  quart  bottle  for  ten  cents.

BAY  RUM. 

Seventy-eight  samples  of  bay  rum  were  analyzed,  of  which  10, 
or  12.9  per  cent,  were  adulterated.  In  every  case  the  adulteration 
consisted  in  the  use  of  methyl  or  wood  alcohol.  Most  of  the 
samples  so  adulterated  contained  but  small  quantities  odf  ethyl 
alcohol.  The  use  of  methyl  alcohol  in  such  preparations  is  in 
violation  of  good  business  ethics  and  the  pure  drug  law.

BLACK  ANTIMONY. 

Of  45  samples  of  black  antimony  but  two  were  pure  antimony 
sulfid.*  All  the  others  were  almost  entirely  fraudulent.  But  seven 
of  the  entire  number  contained  any  antimony  sulfid  whatever, 
powdered  coal,  graphite  or  charcoal,  mixed  with  small  quantities 
of  oxid  of  iron  and  marble  dust  being  the  usual  article  dispensed 
as  black  antimony.

The  excuse  of  the  wholesaler  of  such  fraudulent  mixtures  is 
that  hlack  antimony  is  used  only  as  horse  medicine.  Such  an 
argument  is  a  severe  reflection  on  the  intelligence  of  the  veterina- 
rian, for  anyone  who  would  knowingly  prescribe  a  compoimd  of 
coal  and  marble  dust  as  a  cure  for  disease  knows  no  medicine.

GLYCERINE. 


Of  the  6r  samples  of  glycerine  analyzed  47,  or  77  per  cent., 
did  not  eonfoiTO  to  the  .standard  of  the  TJ.  S.  Pharmacopoeia,  In 
no  case  was  there  evidence  of  fraud,  but  the  larger  number  of 
samples  of  inferior  quality  indicate  that  the  trade  .uses  little 
care  in  purchasing  this  article.  Many  of  the  samples  contained 
free  sulphuric  acid,  butyric  acid,  acrolein,  etc.,  due  to  improper 
purification  in  the  process  of  manufacture,  and  several  contained 
a  large  amount  of  sugar.

LIMEWATER  (LIQUOR  CALOIS). 

One  hundred  and  sixty-six  samples  of  limewater  were  analyzed, 
and  of  that  number  75,  or  45.1  per  cent,  were  below  the  U.  S.  P. 
standard.  Limewater  is  simply  a  saturated  aqueous  solution  of 
pure  unslaked  lime,  the  most  easily  prepared  article  to  be  found 
in  a  drug  store.  And  yet  the  large  number  of  adulterated  samples 
would  indicate  that  in  nearly  fifty  per  cent  of  the  drug  stores  of 
the  State  this  article  is  not  properly  prepared.  The  explanation 
is  doubtless  that  water  is  added  to  the  jug  containing  the  lime 
long  after  all  of  the  lime  haa  been  dissolved.  A  number  of  the 
samples  were  entirely  neutral,  having  no  more  alkalinity  than  tap 
water.  The  ignorance  or  greed  of  anyone  who  will  dispense  tap 
water  when  asked  for  something  to  correct  aciiity  in  milk  fed  an 
infant  can  onlj^  be  suitably  corrected  by  a  severe  application  of 
official  punishment

PKECrriTATICD  SULPHUR    (SUT,1>TTUK    PRAKCI  PITATUm). 

Of  the  141  samplas  of  preoipitatecl  snlpluir  analyzed  but  17 
were  pure.  All  the  other  samples,  or  8S.0  j)er  cent,  contained 
large  quantities  of  calcium  sulfate.  But  few  samples  contained 
more  than  55  p(»r  cent,  of  sulphur,  and  in  most  of  the  samples  the 
calcium  sulfate  content  was  about  ofpial  to  that  of  sulphur.  This 
condition  is  imdobutedly  tlio  result  of  carcloss  preparation. 

Precipitated  sulphur  is  a  preparation  made  by  boiling  a  mixture 
of  powdered  sulphur  and  slaked  lime,  filtering  the  solution,  and

BEESWAX. 


Beeswax  is  prepared  hy  melting  tlie  honey  free  eoiiib  made  by 
the  bees,  and  skimming  and  filterinc:  off  the  impurities.  It  is  very 
liable  to  adulteration,  as  is  shown  hy  tlie  results  of  our  analyses. 
Of  87  samples  of  yellow  or  natural  beeswax,  00  contained  ])araffin 
in  quantities  ran<j:ini^  fr(3m  10  ])er  cent  to  100  per  cent,  while  but 
two  out  of  70  sampk^s  of  bleached  or  white  wax  were  free  from 
paraiBn. 

Beeswax  is  worth  50  cents  a  pound,  paraffin  but  10  cents,  a 
difference  which  readily  ex])lains  the  heavy  adulteration  of  this 
articla

BEESWAX. 

The  butyro-ref  ractometer  of  Zeiss  can  be  used  advantageously  in 
determining  the  purity  of  a  beeswax,  the  refractive  index  being 
very  different  from  that  of  paraffin,  its  chief  adulterant  If  care 
is  taken  to  control  the  temperature  at  which  the  reading  is  made  it 
is  possible  to  determine  accurately  the  percentage  of  adulteration. 
The  addition  of  each  ten  per  cent,  of  paraffin  decreases  the  butyro 
reading  1.6  degree.  Based  on  this  constant  difference  one  of  the 
assistant  chemists,  N.  Thompson,  has  plotted  the  following  curve, 
taking  for  a  basis  for  work  definite  mixtures  of  beeswax  and 
paraffin.

He  has  also  determined  the  change  in  melting  point  for  dif- 
ferent mixturevS  of  beeswax  and  paraffin  and  the  results  are  plotted 
in  the  following  curve.

SPIRITS  OF  CAMPHOR  (SPIRITUS  CAMPHORAE). 

U.  S.  p.  spirits  of  camphor  is  prepared  by  dissolving  100 
grams  of  camphor  gimi  in  800  centimeters  of  alcohol  and  making 
up  to  one  liter.  But  80  to  70  samples  analyzed  contained  a  suffi- 
cient quantity  to  satisfy  this  formula.  One  sample  contained  but 
16  per  cent,  of  the  required  amount.

TINOTURB  OP  IODINE  (TINCTURA  lODI). 

But  21  out  of  133  samples  of  tincture  of  iodine  analyzed  were 
of  full  strength.  This  corresponds  to  84.2  per  cent  adulteration. 
The  fault  is  doubtless  in  the  method  of  preparation,  neglect  to  use 
the  proper  quantities  of  iodine  and  potassium  iodide,  or  incom- 
plete solution  of  the  chemicals.

Of  177  samples  analyzed  138,  or  78.5  per  cent,  were  below  the 
TJ.  S.  P.  standard  of  not  less  than  13.28  per  cent  of  anhydrous 
ferric  chloride.  The  low  percentage  of  iron  may  be  due  to  the 
use  of  impure  chemicals,  incomplete  solution,  or  carelessness  in 
preparation.  We  have  prepared  several  samples  according  to  the 
official  TJ.  S.  P.  method  and  had  no  trouble  in  producing  a  normal 
article.

MISCELLANEOUS  DRUGS. 

We  have  devoted  some  time  to  the  examination  of  drugs  in  the 
form  of  chemicals  commonly  carried  in  stock  by  druggists.  The 
samples  analyzed  were  for  the  most  part  of  good  quality. 

Of  the  seven  samples  of  potassium  iodide  all  were  pure  and  up 
to  the  standard.  Of  the  nine  samples  of  potassium  chlorate  five 
were  pure  and  four  below  standard.  Two  of  the  three  samples 
of  zinc  sulfate  were  pure.  The  third  sample,  although  pure, 
was  improperly  labeled. 

All  the  fourteen  samples  of  boric  acid  were  pure,  as  were  the 
seven  samples  of  sodium  phosphate,  the  four  samples  of  Rochelle 
salts,  and  single  samples  of  tartaric  and  salicylic  acids.

INSPECTIOX  OF  GROCERY  STORES,  MARKETS  AND 
SLAUGHTER  HOUSES. 

Freedom  from  adulteration  is  an  important  requisite  in  foods. 
It  is  of  even  greater  importance  that  the  foods  be  handled  in  a 
cleanly  manner,  protected  from  dirt  and  flies,  and  kept  from  the 
outside  contamination  that  is  often  more  to  be  feared  than  mere 
adulteration.  Proper  care  of  stores  and  markets  can  only  be  se- 
cured at  the  price  of  eternal  vigilance  of  the  health  officer  or  food 
inspector.  Several  cities  of  the  State,  notably  Indianapolis, 
Crawfordsville,  Ft  Wayne  and  Columbus,  through  local  inspect- 
ors have  done  much  to  abolish  filthy  conditions  and  have  secured 
reasonably  satisfactory  results.  The  State  Food  Inspectors 
have  made  note  of  the  conditions  of  the  stores  and  markets  which 
they  visited  during  the  summer  of  .    Their  instructions  were 


Digitized  by  VjOOQIC

to  note  the  general  condition  of  the  stores  as  to  deanliness,  the 
waj  in  which  stock  was  cared  f or^  as  to  protection  from  flies,  dirt, 
etc,,  the  condition  of  the  rear  room  or  store  room  in  the  back,  and 
the  condition  of  the  refrigerator,  taking  special  pains  to  notice  its 
odor  and  appearance.  The  reports  handed  in  bj  inspectors  are 
given  below:

SLAUGHTER  HOUSES. 

Snyder's.  JeflPersonville.  Inspected  October  6,  .  Horrible  con- 
dition of  tilth  and  stench ;  very  old  tumble-do\^Ti  buildings,  impossible  to 
clean;  offal  fed  to  hogs;  slaughter  house  only,  as  carcasses  are  hauled 
away  soon  after  killing;  fat  and  tallow  rendered  in  filthy  kettle;  entire 
surroundings  could  not  be  worse. 

Wm.  Haspel,  Greencastle.  Inspected  September  26,  .  This 
slaughter  house  is  in  a  very  dirty  condition.  The  hides  are  salted  down 
on  the  killing  floor;  the  offal  is  thrown  through  a  window  to  the  ground 
where  it  is  eaten  by  sickly  looking  hogs  or  left  to  decay.  This  pile  is 
about  a  foot  thick  and  ten  feet  in  diameter.  Flies  go  from  the  rotting 
reluse  to  the  interior  of  the  house,  as  no  screens  are  in  the  building.  They 
wash  the  house  occasionally  and  at  certain  seasons  of  the  year  the  stream 
which  flows  nearby  overflows  and  floods  the  yard,  house,  etc.,  washing 
everything  away.  There  are  two  other  slaughter  houses  in  Greencastle, 
both  in  fair  condition,  although  not  screened  nor  sanitarily  kept 

F.  H.  .Tones  &  Go.,  Brazil.  Inspected  September  29,  .  This 
slaughter  house  is  in  very  good  condition:  there  are  cement  floors  and 
the  water  supply  is  abundant  for  keeping  the  place  clean.

Terre  Ha^ute  Abattoir  &  Stockyards  Ck>.  Inspected  October  1,  . 
The  surroundings  of  this  place  are  very  dirty  and  the  platform  where 
the  meat  is  loaded  on  is  unclean.  *  The  slaughtering  rooms  are  in  good 
condition,  having  a  plentiful  supply  of  water;  there  are  no  screens  in  the 
windows.  The  room  where  the  fertilizer  is  made  is  in  direct  connection 
with  both  killing  rooms.  The  manager  promised  to  clean  up  and  use 
screens,  and  the  inspector  recommended  that  the  fertilizer  room  be 
separated  by  a  partition  from  the  rest  of  the  plant  The  cooling  room 
was  in  excellent  condition. 

Valentine  &  Ck>.,  Terre  Haute.  Inspected  October  1,  .  This  is  a 
new  slaughter  house;  conditions  are  good,  although  no  screens  are  used

cooling  room. 

Anderson  Dressed  Beef  Co.,  Anderson.  Inspected  September  9,  . 
This  slaughter  house  has  rather  good  external  appearance  and  consists  of 
three  rooms;  the  cooling  room  is  fairly  clean,  although  an  odor  is  notice- 
able; the  slaughtering  room  had  considerable  refuse  on  the  floors;  the 
rendering  room  is  very  flithy,  the  tanks  being  covered  with  grease  and 
dirt,  with  refuse  all  around  and  the  walls  coated  with  dirt;  a  decided 
odor  is  noticeable  in  this  room.  The  offal  is  fed  to  the  hogs  and  they 
wallow  in  a  pool  of  blood  and  water.

CHARACTER  OP  WORK  AND  AIMS 


Bacteriological  and  Pathological  Division 


STATE  LABORATORY  OF  HYGIENE. 


The  practical  work  of  this  laboratory  is  the  examinatioii  of 
samples  of  sputum,  the  examination  of  diphtheria  cultures,  the 
examination  of  samples  of  blood  and  the  examination  of  curet- 
tings  and  other  pathological  specimens,  to  aid  physicians  in  making 
diagnoses,  to  the  end  that  the  people  may  be  benefited.  It  is  ob- 
vious that  if  diagnosis  of  disease  is  made  more  accurate  and  made 
earlier,  that  more  cures  can  be  made  and  more  lives  saved  by  the 
medical  art  It  not  infrequently 'happens  in  regard  to  diphtheria 
that  the  physicians  of  a  neighborhood  differ  as  to  the  diagnosis, 
some  contending  for  diphtheria  and  others  for  tonsilitis  or  other 
forms  of  angina.  In  such  instances,  the  laboratory  can  make  ac- 
curate decision,  which  is  a  great  point  in  the  isolation  and  quar- 
antine of  the  disease  for  the  purpose  of  its  control.  In  consump- 
tion, the  microscopical  examination  of  the  sputum  is  of  great 
importance,  for  frequently  patients  will  not  accept  the  clinical  di- 
agnosis of  physicians,  and  then  they  do  not  observe  the  health 
rules  for  disease  prevention,  and  go  on  spreading  the  disease. 
And  again,  in  such  instances,  the  patient  is  lost,  because  he  neg- 
lects to  apply  proper  methods  of  cure,  but  goes  on  taking  medicine 
in  the  hope  of  relief.  &#; 

Blood  examinations  to  diagnose  typhoid  fever  are  at  this  time 
a  necessity.  This  is  because  at  certain  stages  of  these  maladies 
it  is  impossible  for  the  clinician  to  make  absolute  diagnosis.  As 
it  is  with  diphtheria,  so  it  is  with  typhoid,  the  unrecognized  and

mild  cases  spread  the  infection.  As  for  the  differentiation  of 
typhoid  and  malaria^  it  is  true  that  in  not  a  few  instances  this 
can  he  done  in  the  laboratory  only.  At  the  Indiana  Soldiers' 
Home  a  year  ago  and  at  Richmond  in  the  summer  of  ,  it  was 
discovered  through  the  laboratory  that  epidemics  of  typhoid  pre- 
vailed, most  of  the  cases  being  mild,  but  competent  to  spread  the 
disease  in  virulent  form.  This  discovery  was  of  much  importance 
in  staying  the  further  spread  of  the  disease. 

Examinations  made  are  herein  tabulated  and  summarized.  The 
tables  show  total  number  of  examinations,  and  results  by  counties, 
and  are  followed  by  summaries. 


REPORT  FROM  THE  DIVISION  OF  BACTERIOLOGY 

AND  PATHOLOGY  OF  THE  INDIANA  STATE 

LABORATORY  OF  HYGIENE. 

January. &#; A  number  of  the  specimens  which  appear  in  this 
month's  report  were  examined  during  October,  November  and 
December,  before  the  State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene  was  formally 
established.  Indeed,  many  of  the  physicians  who  had  keenly  felt 
the  need  of  such  an  institution  for  a  long  time  began  to  send 
specimens  to  the  State  Board  of  Health  as  soon  as  it  became  known 
that  an  appropriation  had  been  made  by  the  Legislature  for  this 
purpose.

February.&#; We  did  not  receive  many  specimens  and  were  rather 
glad  of  it,  because  of  the  number  of  outfits  for  the  collection  of 
sputum,  blood  and  diphtheria  cultures  which  were  to  be  sent  to 
all  parts  of  the  State.  These  outfits  are  prepared  and  shipped  by 
the  employes  of  this  laboratory.  Letters  have  also  been  written 
to  the  health  officers  and  the  secretaries  of  the  coimty  medical 
societies,  explaining  the  rules  governing  the  work  in  this  labora- 
tory, and  inviting  the  physiciajis  to  pvail  theynselves  of  our  ser- 

yiops,

Of  the  21  examinatioiis  for  bacillus  diphtherifle,  13  were  posi- 
tive, and  of  these  six  specimens  were  received  from  Fort  Wayne, 
three  from  Michigan  City  and  three  from  Indianapolis,  these 
specimens  having  been  sent  by  one  physician  respectively  ironx 
each  city.

March. &#; We  note  with  pleasure  the  increase  of  specimens  sent 
for  diagnosis,  as  this  is  only  the  third  month  since  the  formal  open- 
ing of  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene. 

Diphtheria  has  not  been  much  in  evidence,  only  four  of  eight 
cultures  giving  a  positive  result.  As  might  be  expected,  there  is 
an  increase  in  typhoid  fever,  because  this  disease  is  more  prone 
to  occur  during  the  seasons  Avhere  either  heavy  rains  or  the  melt- 
ing ice  and  snow  increase  the  volume  of  surface  water.  As  a 
consequence,  many  places  which  during  the  previous  months  had 
been  polluted  with  excreta  from  persons  suffering  with  typhoid 
fever,  are  now  covered  with  water,  which,  receding,  carries  with  it 
the  dangerous  bacteria,  to  distribute  the  disease  in  other  places. 

Of  the  20  positive  Widal  reactions,  six  were  found  in  blood, 
obtained  from  patients  residing* in  Indianapolis,  five  others  came 
from  Michigan  City.  The  examinations  of  sputum  have  increased 
considerably  in  number,  Marion,  Wayne  and  Clinton  coimties 
furnishing  each  a  large  percentage  of  the  142  examinations  of  this 
character.  *

April &#; Typhoid  fever  is  still  on  the  increase.  Greencastle, 
Putnam  County,  has  quite  an  epidemic  of  this  disease,  26  speci- 
mens from  this  town  alone  having  been  submitted  for  examination, 
all  of  them  giving  a  positive  Widal  reaction.  Laporte  County, 
as  represented  by  Michigan  City,  is  in  evidence  with  five  positive

reactions.  The  remainder  of  the  specimens  are  pretty  evenly 
divided,  with  the  exception  of  Marion  and  Vigo  counties,  which 
have  three  positive  Widal  tests  each.  The  tuberculosis  situation, 
judging  from  the  specimens  received  this  month,  is  bad  indeed, 
nearly  one-half  of  all  cases  showing  the  presence  of  bacillus  tuber- 
culosis.

May. &#; Our  records  for  this  month  show  that  we  have  made 
more  examinations  for  tuberculosis  than  for  any  other  disease. 
Nearly  two-thirds  of  168  samples  of  sputum  contained  tubercle 
bacilli.  Thirteen  positive  Widal  examinations  came  from  nearly 
as  many  counties.  The  nimiber  of  examinations  to  determine  the 
presence  of  bacillus  diphtherise  was  almost  double  that  of  last 
month.

Jime. &#; There  is  very  little  to  be  said  of  this  month.  Laporte 
Coimty  furnished  six  cases  of  typhoid  fever,  although  not  aH  of 
them  were  from  one  town. 

Of  the  139  specimens  examined  for  tuberculosis  the  majority 
gave  a  negative  result.  Diphtheria  does  not  seem  to  prevail  very 
extensively,  as  only  ten  cultures  were  submitted  for  examination 
during  the  month,  and  of  these  six  did  not  contain  diphtheria 
bacilli.  This,  with  the  exception  of  January,  is  the  first  month 
which  shows  more  specimens  with  a  negative  result  We  hope  the 
cause  of  this  is  that  the  physicians  avail  themselves  of  the  services 
of  this  laboratory  in  those  cases  which  present  but  slightly  sus- 
picious symptoms,  and  if  this  supposition  is  correct  it  will  mean 
that  a  long  step  toward  the  stamping  out  of  this  disease  has  been 
taken.

We  note  that  the  number  of  positive  Widal  tests  was  four  times 
greater  than  that  of  the  cases  in  which  the  result  was  negative. 
Reports  of  the  attending  physicians  show  that  many  of  these 
cases  of  typhoid  ran  a  very  mild  course. 

Of  the  228  specimens  of  suspected  tuberculosis,  60.9  per  cent 
were  negative.  The  number  of  pathological  specimens  has  been 
imusually  large.  Many  of  them  were  pieces  of  new  growths, 
which  upon  examination,  proved  to  be  carcinoma. 

Several  of  the  miscellaneous  specimens  arc  worthy  of  note.  In 
one  instance,  cerebral  fluid  from  a  horse  was  sent  in.  The  owner 
of  the  animal  suspected  anthrax,  having  lost  within  a  short  time, 
four  horses  kept  in  the  same  stables.  Microscopical  examination, 
however,  revealed  the  presence  of  a  mixed  infection  of  meningo- 
cocci and  other  bacteria.  Another  was  a  case  of  tetanus,  due  to  an 
explosion  of  a  toy  pistol.  The  spores  of  B.  Tetanti  were  found  in 
smears  made  from  the  wound  immediately  after  death  of  the  pa- 
tient 

There  have  been  374  reports  and  letters  sent  out  from  this 
Department  The  kind  letters  received  from  physicians  of  the 
State  show  an  increasing  appreciation  of  the  assistance  rendered 
them  by  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  an  appreciation  which  is  very 
gratifying  to  those  who  have  charge  of  the  work. 

August &#; The  month  of  August  shows  an  increase  in  the  num- 
ber of  blood  examinations  for  typhoid  fever,  65  per  cent,  of  the 
specimens  giving  a  positive  Widal  reaction. 

Of  the  specimens  examined  for  tuberculosis,  46.8  per  cent, 
showed  the  presence  of  tubercle  bacilli. 

The  head  of  one  dog  was  received  to  be  examined  for  rabies,  and 
Nagri  bodies  were  found  in  the  brain.  In  connection  with  this 
disease,  it  seems  necessary  to  call  the  attention  of  physicians  to 
the  fact  that  the  head  of  the  animal  supposed  to  be  rabid  must  be 
submitted,  because  scrapings  from  the  wound  caused  by  the  animal 
are  not  satisfactory  for  such  examinations. 

There  are  still  specimens  coming  in  which  are  not  prepared

according  to  the  rules  of  this  laboratory,  and  on  account  of  the 
danger  to  the  examiner,  we  can  not  examine  them  any  more.  The 
manner  in  which  the  accompanying  blanks  are  filled  out  by  the 
physicians  is  also  very  far  from  satisfactory.  In  some  cases,  even 
the  physician's  name  is  omitted,  and  reports  on  such  cases  can  not, 
of  course,  be  made. 

There  were  291  specimens  examined  in  the  laboratory  from 
August  1st  to  September  1st.

September. &#; ^During  this  month  the  number  of  Widal  tests 
made  in  the  laboratory  was  higher  than  in  any  of  the  preceding 
months.  The  reason  for  this  is  that  in  all  parts  of  the  State  oc- 
curred many  cases  of  intestinal  diseases  resembling  typhoid  fever. 
Those  physicians  who  have  availed  themselves  of  the  services  of 
the  laboratory  for  the  past  year  are  now  aware  of  the  fact  that  it 
is  impossible  to  recognize  a  mild  case  of  typhoid  fever  by  the 
clinical  symptoms  only.  3^Iany  of  the  cases  which  occurred  during 
the  past  year  were  very  mild  or  were  attended  by  symptoms  atyp- 
ical in  character.  In  nearly  all  cases,  however,  where  there  was  a 
true  typhoid  infection,  r^ardless  of  the  clinical  aspect  of  the  case, 
the  Widal  reaction  was  present. 

The  results  of  our  records  now  show  that  the  majority  of  speci- 
mens received  during  this  month  came  from  patients  suffering  with 
acute  intestinal  disorders  other  than  typhoid,  and  this  demon- 
strates clearly  that  the  laboratory  fulfills  the  purpose  for  which  it 
was  created,  viz.,  to  assist  the  general  practitioner  in  making  a 
correct  diagnosis  of  all  doubtful  cases  where  infectious  diseases 
are  suspected.  The  time  saved  in  this  way  is  very  valuable  to 
physicians,  as  well  as  patients,  and  especially  in  case  of  diphtheria 
the  lapse  of  a  few  hours  may  seriously  interfere  with  the  chances 
of  the  patient's  recovery.

Considering  the  number  of  specimens  of  sputum  received  for 
examination,  we  see  that  physicians  are  beginning  to  send  more 
specimens  from  patients  in  whom  no  tuberculosis  is  present  This 
shows  that  any  one  of  these  cases  will  be  given  the  proper  treat- 
ment before  the  dread  disease  is  established  in  the  system,  a  fact 
which  will  be  of  the  utmost  importance  in  the  economy  of  this 
State.

October. &#; The  month  of  October  has  brought  a  heavy  increase 
in  the  number  of  examinations  of  serum  cultures  to  determine  the 
piesence  of  bacillus  diphtheria.  This  disease  seems  to  be  dissemi- 
ni«ted  pretty  well  throughout  the  State,  as  we  have  received  cul- 
tures from  many  different  counties.  Out  of  50  examinations  of  this 
kind,  bacillus  diphtherise  was  present  in  30  cultures.  Twelve  cul- 
tures were  found  negative,  i.  e.,  micro-organisms  other  than  diph- 
tbcTia  were  the  cause  of  inflammation  of  the  upper  air  passages. 
The  majority  of  these  cases  of  true  diphtheria  occurred  in  chil- 
dren, although  there  was  one  case  in  an  adult  terminating  fa  rally 
of  which  we  received  the  culture  after  the  death  of  the  patient.  In 
many  of  these  cases  the  clinical  symptoms  were  very  slight,  but  the 
microscope  revealed  the  fact  tiiat  diphtheria  bacilli  were  resp'>ii- 
sible  for  the  trouble.  We  have  no  hesitation  in  saying  that,  had 
these  mild  cases  been  allowed  to  go  on  as  simple  sore  throat  or 
tonsilitis,  there  would  have  resulted  an  epidemic  of  diphtheria 
many  times  as  severe  as  that,  which  the  State  Board  of  Health  is 
combating  at  the  present  time. 

In  r^ard  to  the  typhoid  fever  situation  it  is  still  grave  enough, 
and  we  do  not  expect  much  abatement  of  this  disease  until  the  ad- 
vent of  winter.

SUMMARY. 

Afl  we  look  over  the  records  at  the  close  of  the  first  year  in  the 
history  of  the  Indiana  State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  we  note  witli 
appreciation  the  favorable  aspect  of  conditions .  as  we  see  thera 
now.  The  early  months  of  this  work,  before  the  formal  opening  of 
the  laboratory,  disclosed  more  clearly  every  day  the  dire  need  which 
existed  in  this  State  for  just  such  an  institution  as  the  Labora- 
tory of  Hygiene.  Nearly  every  specimen  of  sputum  received  at 
that  time  was  teeming  with  tubercle  bacilli.  Practically  all  of 
these  specimens  came  from  people  who  had  been  under  physicians' 
treatment  for  years.  Slight  colds,  bronchitis  and  other  diseases 
of  the  respiratory  tract  had  followed  each  other  closely  in  these 
patients,  but  as  the  price  of  a  sputum  examination  was  too  high 
for  most  of  them,  no  attempt  was  made  in  this  direction ;  indeed, 
in  many  cases,  the  physician  was  compelled  to  donate  his  services 
during  the  years  which  elapsed  from  the  appearance  of  symptoms 
of  advanced  tuberculosis  until  the  death  of  the  patient 

After  the  formal  opening  of  the  laboratory  the  question  of  getr 
ting  in  touch  with  the  physicians  of  this  State  was  the  first  to  be 
solved.  This  was  done  through  the  newspapers,  the  Bulletin  of 
the  Indiana  State  Board  of  Health,  and  also  by  writing  letters  to 
the  various  medical  societies.  To  address  each  physician  as  we 
would  have  liked  to  do  was  out  of  the  question ;  also  was  it  impos- 
sible to  send  one  of  the  physicians  employed  in  this  laboratory  to 
speak  before  the  various  medical  societies  and  demonstrate  the 
proper  manner  in  which  specimens  should  be  sent  The  physi- 
cians, however,  soon  began  to  make  more  use  of  the  laboratory. 

As  the  months  passed  by  we  noticed  a  remarkable  change  in  con- 
nection with  examinations  for  tuberculosis.  Where,  in  the  early 
part  of  the  year  one  question  on  the  record  blanks,  viz. :  "How 
long  have  you  been  treating  the  patient?"  was  answered  with &#; 
"Several  years" &#; ^there  appeared  instead,  "Two  or  three  months." 
Now,  at  the  end  of  one  year,  it  is  rare  indeed  to  find  it  stated  on 
any  blank  that  the  patient  has  been  imder  treatment  even  as  long 
as  one  month.  The  usual  answer  now  received  on  this  question  is 
either,  "Patient  has  just  come  under  my  observation"  or  "This  is 
the  second  visit" 

The  great  importance  of  this  change  becomes  at  once  apparent 
when  we  consider  the  chronicity  of  tuberculosis.     Whenever  the

physician  is  enaUed^  at  the  time  a  patient  comes  to  him,  to  ha^e 
the  sputum  analyzed^  he  can  at  once  take  the  proper  measures  to 
prevent  this  disease.  Even  in  cases  where  tubercle  bacilli  are 
found  the  disease  may  be  arrested. 

A  very  notable  instance  of  this  character  which  we  have  had  the 
good  fortune  to  observe  occurred  during  the  past  year.  The  spu- 
tum of  Miss  Mary  Veach,  residing  at  Mt.  Summit^  Ind.,  was  sent 
for  examination  December  26,  ,  with  the  result  that  tubercle 
bacilli  were  present  in  small  numbers.  She  was  treated  according 
to  the  rational  method  and  specimens  of  her  sputum  were  sent  oc- 
casionally for  examination.  The  bacilli  persisted  for  about  six 
months,  then  we  did  not  hear  from  this  patient  for  two  months, 
and  on  August  3,  ,  another  specimen  was  examined  with 
negative  result  This  seemed  so  astonishing  to  the  examining 
pathologist  that  inquiry  was  made  to  ascertain  the  probability  of 
a  mistake  in  sending  the  sputum.  Since  then,  however,  we  have 
examined  sputum  from  this  patient  repeatedly  and  are  in  posi- 
tion to  record  a  case  in  which  tuberculosis  has  been  arrested  in  a 
resident  of  this  State,  merely  by  proper  treatment,  instituted  at  an 
early  stage  of  the  disease,  without  change  of  climate,  as  the  pa- 
tient never  left  her  home.

As  shown  in  the  notes  appended  to  the  records  of  each  month, 
several  epidemics  of  typhoid  fever  and  diphtheria  oocarred  during 
the  past  jwr,    Allen  County  has  suffered  most  heavily  from  diph-

theria  according  to  our  records,  as  we  find  that  ten  out  of  twelve 
examinations  of  serum  cultures  showed  the  presence  of  diphtheria 
bacilli.  Next  to  this  comes  Marion  County,  with  eighteen  positives 
out  of  twenty-seven  examinations.  We  also  received  cultures  from 
nimierous  other  counties,  but  none  of  them  gave  as  many  positive 
results.  Our  records  in  Widal  reactions  show  the  largest  number 
of  positive  results  in  Laporte  County,  where  26  of  29  cases  were 
found  to  be  typhoid  fever.  It  is  a  notable  fact  that  we  have  re- 
ceived specimens  of  this  kind  from  physicians  in  Michigan  City 
every  month  for  the  past  year,  and  in  a  very  small  percentage  only 
the  result  was  negative.  Wayne  County  is  represented  with  32 
positive  out  of  66  examinations,  and  JeflFerson  County  has  12  pos- 
itive reactions  from  a  total  of  20  tests  made.  Marion  County 
showed  69  positive  reactions  in  122  Widal  tests;  but  it  should 
be  taken  into  consideration  that  this  is  only  a  small  part  of  the 
Widal  examinations  made  in  this  county,  as  the  Indianapolis  City 
Laboratory  conducts  the  majority  of  these  examinations  in  the 
above  named  city. 

If  the  means  to  conduct  a  campaign  of  education  among  the 
citizens  of  Indiana  are  placed  within  the  reach  of  the  physicians 
connected  with  the  Laboratory  of  Hygiene,  the  latter  will  be 
made  the  principal  life-saving  station  of  the  State  and  results  will 
not  be  long  in  forthcoming,  as  indeed  they  are  showing  now. 

We  are  safe  in  saying  that  every  physician  who  has  availed 
himself  of  the  services  of  the  Indiana  State  Laboratory  of  Hygiene 
has  materially  benefited  his  community  and  incidentally  every 
citizen  in  the  State  of  Indiana.

TUBERCULOSIS. 

Tuberculosis  still  goes  on  its  murderous  way  in  Indiana,  yet  a 
slight  decrease  as  compared  with  preceding  years  appears.  All  the 
following  tables  and  diagrams  show  a  slight  decrease.  Whenever 
possibje  the  State  Board  of  Health  calls  the  attention  of  the  people 
to  the  facts  that  tuberculosis  is  preventable,  that  it  is  curable  if 
taken  in  its  early  stages,  and  that  through  private  and  governmental 
effort  it  can  be  greatly  reduced.

MONTHLY  ANALYSIS  OF  PNEUMONIA  DEATHS.

In  the  corresponding  month  last  year,  558  deaths,  rate  248.6.  This 
is  a  decided  improvement,  for  which  we  should  be  grateful.  One 
hundred  forty-seven  of  the  deaths  were  under  15  years  of  age,  92 
between  20  and  50, 138  over  50,  3  were  90  and  over. 

February &#; ^Pneumonia  caused  403  deaths;  rate,  197.8.  In  the

ceding month,  415  deaths;  rate,  184.8  per  100,000.  There  were  12 
fewer  in  February  than  occurred  in  January.  Of  the  total  pneu- 
monia deaths,  187  were  males  and  216  females.  It  is  quite  unusual

February  of  this  year  of  334. 

March &#; ^Pneumonia  caused  469  deaths;  rate,  208.9  per  100,000.

corresponding  month  last  year,  599  deaths.  By  this  comparison, 
which  is  the  right  one,  there  is  a  decided  improvement  to  be  noted, 
as  there  is  a  difference  of  130  deaths!  Seventy-five  of  the  deaths 
from  pneumonia  were  under  one  year  of  age,  73  in  the  age  period  of

MONTHI.Y  ANALYSIS  Ol''  TYPHOID  PEVKB  DEATHS. 

Janilary &#; Fifty-two  counties  report  175  cases  of  typhoid  fever, 
with  33  deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last  year,  273  cases 
were  reported  with  50  deaths  in  40  counties.  In  the  preceding 
month  there  were  306  cases  in  47  counties,  with  66  deaths. 

February &#; Thirty-eight  counties  reported  117  cases,  with  29 
deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last  year  42  counties. reported 
202  cases,  with  32  deaths.  In  the  preceding  month  52  counties  re- 
ported 175  eases,  with  33  deaths. 

March &#; Two  hundred  and  fifty-eight  cases  were  reported  from  46 
counties,  with  37  deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last  year, 
197  cases  in  37  counties,  with  30  deaths.  In  the  preceding  month, 
117  cases  in  38  counties,  with  29  deaths. 

April &#; Two  hundred  and  eleven  cases  reported  from  62  counties. 
The  disease  was  epidemic  in  Daviess  County;  which  reported  11 
cases,  with  1  death;  in  Jackson,  with  6  cases  and  1  death,  and  in 
Parke,  with  8  cases  and  no  deaths. 

May &#; Ninety-four  cases  reported  from  32  counties,  with  40 
deaths.  The  disease  was  epidemic  in  the  following  counties :  Clark, 
15  cases;  Vanderburgh,  11;  Washington,  15. 

July &#; Two  hundred  and  twenty-eight  cases  reported,  with  44 
deaths,  from  49  counties.  In  the  preceding  month  94  cases,  with 
40  deaths,  in  32  counties.  The  disease  was  epidemic  in  the  follow- 
ing counties :  Bartholomew,  Clark,  Howard,  Jefferson,  ]Morgan  and 
Wayne.  In  Wayne  County,  at  Richmond,  many  cases  of  sickness 
of  an  unusual  nature  appeared,  some  doctors  calling  the  type  of 
disease  ** summer  grippe.''  Several  physicians  became  suspicious 
and  blood  from  these  patients  was  sent  to  the  Laboratory  of  Hy- 
giene and  was  found  to  give  the  Widal  reaction.  It  is  estimated 
there  were  at  least  200  cases  of  this  mild  typhoid  fever  in  Richmond 
in  July. 

Augast &#; Four  hundred  and  forty-six  cases  reported  from  68 
counties,  with  93  deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month,  228  cases 
reported,  wiih  48  deaths  from  49  counties.  In  the  corresponding 
month  last  year,  360  cases,  with  125  deaths  from  72  counties.  The 
disea.se  was  epidemic  in  Adams  County,  11  cases;  Clay,  18;  Daviess, 
14;  Delaware,  12;  Madison,  12;  Noble,  16;  Vanderburgh,  35; 
Wayne,  50.  We  have  every  reason  to  believe  that  the  disease,  al- 
m(Kst  without  (i|uestion,  existed  in  every  county  in  the  state  either 
in  mild  or  severe  form. 

September &#; Nine  hundred  and  seventy-seven  cases  reported  from 
76  counties,  with  143  deaths.     In  the  preceding  month,  446  cases  in 


Digitized  by  VjOOQ IC 


453 

68  counties,  with  93  deaths.  In  the  corrospondin*?  month  last  year, 
1,080  cases  in  96  counties,  with  186  deaths.  The  disease  was  epi- 
demic in  the  followinisr  counties:  Bartholomew,  22;  Clay,  20; 
Daviess,  30;  Fayette,  20;  Howard,  25;  Lawrence,  33;  Marion,  60; 
Montgomery,  17;  Vanderburgh,  23;  Vigo,  20;  Wayne,  17;  Wash- 
ington, 15;  Whitley,  25. 

October &#; Seven  hundred  and  thirty-two  eases  were  reported  from 
73  counties,  with  150  deaths.  In  the  preceding  month,  977  cases 
reported  from  76  counties,  with  143  deaths.  In  the  corresponding 
month  last  year,  there  were  711  crises  in  72  counties,  with  152 
deaths.  The  disease  w^as  epidemic  in  the  following  counties:  Bar- 
tholomew, 11  cases:  Delaware,  25;  Howard,  15;  Jefferson,  35;  Madi- 
son, 25;  Montgomery.  11  Noble,  17;  Parke,  14;  Posey,  27;  l^utnam, 
12;  White,  17. 

November &#; Seven  hundred  and  ninety  cases  of  typhoid  fever 
were  reported  in  73  counties,  with  J  35  deaths.  In  the  correspond- 
ing month  last  year,  570  cases  from  62  counties,  with  101  deaths. 
Several  epidemics  were  reported.  In  Daviess  County  there  were  16 
cases  and  2  deaths  Fayette,  10  cases  and  2  deaths;  Hancock,  16 
cases,  1  death ;  Jackson,  10  cases,  2  deaths ;  Jay,  12  cases,  3  deaths ; 
Lagrange,  15  cases,  no  deaths;  Madison,  17  cases,  5  deaths;  Noble, 
10  cases,  no  deaths;  Parke,  29  cases,  2  deaths;  I'utnam,  10  cases,  no 
deaths;  Vanderburgh,  12  cases,  1  death.  We  recognize  from  these 
reports  that  not  a  few  cases  of  mild  typhoid  are  diagnosed  as  ma- 
laria, diarrhmml  tnmble.  qU\  We  also  recognize  that  many  typical 
cases  are  not  reported  owing  to  thoughtlessness  and  disregard  of  the 
law  on  the  part  of  practitioners. 

December &#; Six  hundred  and  seventy-four  (ases  were  reported 
from  50  counties,  with  79  deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last 
year,  712  cases  from  47  counties,  with  66  deaths.  The  disease  was 
reported  as  epidemic  in  Clark  County,  15  cases;  Daviess,  17;  Dela- 
ware, 24;  Martin,  17;  Noble,  17;  Parke,  18;  Spencer,  26;  I'nion,  25; 
Washington,  20. 

DIPHTHERIA. 

Diphtheria  caused  402  deaths  in  ,  or  61  less  than  the  average 
(463)  for  the  last  seven  years.  January  is  the  most  fatal  month, 
and  July  the  least  fatal.  The  gradual  decrease  of  deaths  from 
diphtheria  is  largely  due  to  the  more  general  and  earlier  use  of  anti- 
toxin, although  the  teachings  and  w^nrnings  of  the  health  depart- 
ment must  have  had  some  good  effect. 

The  tables  giving  the  number  of  deaths  by  months  and  by  ages, 
follow  herewith :

INFLUENZA. 


Influenza  caused  224  deaths  in  ,  which  is  a  large  decrease  as 
compared  with  the  average  (477)  for  the  last  seven  years.  How- 
ever, the  disease  existed,  but  not  in  epidemic  form,  in  every  county 
in  the  state,  deaths  occurring  in  73  counties.  The  northern  sanitary 
section  was  freer  from  the  disease  and  had  fewer  deaths  than  either 
the  central  or  southern  section.  The  tables  and  charts  herewith

MONTHLY  AN.\LYSIS. 

Eighty  cases  of  smallpox  were  reported  in  10  counties,  namely: 
Allen,  52 ;  Elkhart,  1 ;  Kosciusko,  2 ;  Lawrence,  1 ;  Scott,  4 ;  Switzer- 
land, 9 ;  Tippecanoe,  2 ;  Wayne,  1 ;  Whitley,  1.  There  were  no 
deaths  from  this  disease  during  the  month.  The  epidemic  in  Allen 
County  presented  no  severe  cases  and  no  deaths.  In  the  correspond- 
ing month  last  year  288  cases  of  smallpox,  with  7  deaths  in  27  coun-

March &#; One  hundred  and  twenty-four  cases  were  reported  in  16 
counties,  with  no  deaths.  Tn  the  corresponding?  month  last  year, 
251  cases  in  29  counties,  with  one  death.  In  the  preceding  month, 
152  eases  in  15  counties,  with  no  deaths.  The  disease  continued  epi- 
demic from  last  month  in  Allen  County,  38  cases  heing  reported.  It 
was  also  epidemic  in  Clark,  8  cases;  Crawford,  16;  Floyd,  13;  La- 
porte,  14 ;  Miami,  8 ;  Whitley,  10.  In  other  counties  the  cases  were : 
Boone.  1;  Clinton,  1;  Pulton,  3;  Greene,  1;  Marion,  7;  Martin,  1; 
Putnam,  1 ;  Spencer,  1 ;  Vigo,  1. 

April &#; Ninety-seven  cases  reported  from  11  counties,  with  no 
deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last  year,  151  cases  in  18  coun- 
ties, with  4  deaths.  In  the  preceding  month,  124  cases  in  16  coun- 
ties, with  no  deaths.  The  disease  was  epidemic  in  mild  form  in  the 
following  counties:  Adams,  15;  Allen,  20;  Clark,  18;  Floyd,  7; 
Huntington,  7;  Marion,  9;  Miami,  15.  A  few  cases  not  epidemic 
occurred  in  the  following  counties :  Clinton,  1 ;  Daviess,  1 ;  Greene, 
3 ;  Howard,  7.  . 

May &#; One  hundred  and  twelve  cases  reported  from  14  counties, 
with  no  deaths.  In  the  rorres])onding  month  last  year,  125  cases 
of  smallpox  were  reported  from  11  counties,  with  2  deaths.  The 
counties  reporting  this  disease  were  as  follows :  Adams,  10 ;  Allen, 
44;  Clark,  10;  Crawford,  2;  Fayette,  1;  Floyd,  12;  Fulton,  1; 
Henry,  1;  Marion,  4;  Miami,  2;  Putnam,  1;  Vanderburgh,  5;  Vigo, 
1 ;  Washington,  20. 

June &#; Sixty-three  cases  reported  from  eight  counties,  with  no 
deaths.  In  the  corresponding  month  last  year,  114  cases  in  13  coun- 
ties, with  4  deaths.  In  the  preceding  month,  112  cases  in  14  coun- 
ties, with  no  deaths.  The  disease  was  epidemic  in  Adams  County, 
14  cases;  Allen,  17  cases;  Miami,  11  cases;  Shelby,  10  cas^.  Other 
counties  had  the  following  number  of  cases :  Carroll,  2 ;  Floyd,  2 ; 
Grant,  2 ;  Jay,  9 ;  Vigo,  2.  All  of  the  cases  reported  were  very  mild. 
In  no  instance  was  it  reported  in  severe  form. 

July &#; Eighteen  cases  reported  from  six  counties,  with  one  death. 
The  said  death  was  an  infant  three  days  old,  which  was  born  broken 
out  with  the  disease.  The  mother  had  recovered  from  a  mild  attack 
and  had  been  dismissed  from  the  pest  house  in  Jefferson  County. 
The  following  counties  reported  the  disease  present:  Allen,  9 
cases;  Clark,  1;  Jay,  2;  Jefferson,  2  cas(»*  and  1  death;  Shelby,  4, 
and  Vanderburgh,  6.  It  is  very  probable  this  does  not  represent 
all  of  the  cases,  for  we  are  cert,ain  scores  of  cases  of  mild  smallpox 
have  occurred  during  this  month.  In  Pulaski  County,  at  Monterey, 
100  cases  of  a  mild  eruptive  disease  have  occurred.     Many  phy-

sicians  unhesitatingly  pronounced  this  smallpox,  while  others  have 
termed  it  ** mixed  infection."  The  cases  are  so  mild,  and  as  no 
deaths  have  occurred,  it  has  been  impossible  to  establish  effective 
quarantine  or  to  induce  the  people  to  vaccinate. 

August &#; Forty  cases  reported  from  three  counties,  with  no 
deaths.  The  following  counties  reported  the  disease  present :  Ful- 
ton, 10  cases ;  Miami,  10  cases :  Pulaski,  20  cases.  It  is  very  certain 
this  does  not  represent  all  of  the  cases,  for,  without  doubt,  many 
mild  attacks  halve  escaped  diagnosis.  After  seven  years  of  smallpox 
in  the  state,  very  many  physicians  are  found  who  fail  to  diagnose 
the  disease  in  mild  form. 

September &#; Fifty-one  cases  reported  from  ten  counties,  with  two 
deaths.  The  counties  reporting  the  disease  present  were :  Fulton, 
6  cases;  Jefferson,  16;  Johnson,  1 ;  Miami,  4;  Montgomery,  3;  Shel- 
by, 5 ;  Starke,  6 ;  St.  Joseph,  1 ;  Sullivan,  8,  with  two  deaths ;  Wa- 
bash, 1  case.  We  are  again  compelled  to  remark  that  these  figures 
do  not  tell  the  whole  story  except  as  to  deaths,  for,  without  doubt, 
many  mild  attacks  have  escaped  diagnosis  and  many  people  have 
had  the  disease  without  even  seeing  a  physician. 

October &#; There  were  118  cases  reported  from  nine  counties,  with 
three  deaths.  In  the  same  month  last  year  there  were  no  cases  of 
smallpox,  and  of  course  no  deaths.  The  counties  reporting  the 
disease  present  this  month  were :  AUen^  2  cases ;  Delaware,  1 ;  Ful- 
ton, 3 ;  Jefferson,  61 ;  Lagrange,  8 ;  Miami,  3 ;  Ripley,  1 ;  St.  Joseph, 
28;  Vigo,  1.  The  three  deaths  occurred  in  Jefferson  County.  As 
remarked  every  month,  it  is  true  that  .there  were  cases  of  this  disease 
which  were  never  reported. 

November &#; There  were  216  cases  reported  from  14  counties,  with 
no  deaths.  In  the  same  month  last  year  there  were  112  cases  in  13 
counties,  with  1  death.  The  following  counties  reported  the  disease 
present :  Clark,  1  case ;  Daviess,  1 ;  Fulton,  3 ;  Grant,  2 ;  Henry,  1 ; 
Jefferson,  83;  Jennings,  1;  Marshall,  4;  Miami,  60;  Pulaski,  17; 
Ripley,  2;  Starke,  6;  St.  Joseph,  33.  Although  seven  years  have 
elapsed  since  smallpox  first  appeared  in  this  state,  and  although  it 
has  been  present  every  week  in  the  state  in  that  time,  still  there  are 
physicians  who  can  not  diagnose  this  disease  when  it  appears  in  mild 
form.  Mistakes  in  this  respect  seem  no  fewer  than  were  made  seven 
years  ago. 

December &#; There  were  393  cases  reported  from  19  counties,  with 
1  death.  In  the  same  month  last  3'ear,  112  cases  from  13  counties, 
with  1  death.  There  is  a  decided  increase  in  cases  and  a  slight  in- 
crease in  area  of  prevalence.     The  following  counties  reported  the

disease  as  present :  Allen.  1 ;  Benton,  1 ;  Cass,  2 ;  Clark,  1 ;  Daviess, 
1 ;  Elkhart,  2 ;  Puiton,  65 ;  Grant,  5 ;  Howard,  2 ;  Jasper,  2 ;  Jeffer- 
son,.62;  Marion,  5,  and  1  death;  Marshall,  8  cases;  Miami,  62;  Pu- 
laski, 34;  Starke,  16;  St.  Joseph,  12;  Wabash,  3 ;  Washington,  8. 

VIOLENOE, 

The  violence  deaths  numbered  2,210,  as  against  2,050  in  . 
The  term  violence  includes  accidents,  suicides  and  homicides.  The 
accidental  deaths  numbered  1,836;  the  suicides,  281,  and  the  homi- 
cides, 93.  No  deaths  by  mob  violence  in  ,  and  but  1  in  . 
Steam  cars,  trolley  cars  and  machinery  killed  834. 

The  Violence  Chart  tollowing  compares  the  violence  deaths  with 
the  average  for  the  last  seven  years,  and  by  it  it  appears  there  was  a 
decided  increase  in  violence  deaths  over  preceding  years.

GANGER. 

Cancer  is  an  increasing  cause  of  death  in  Indiana.  The  chart  fol- 
lowing shows  this  to  be  tme.  The  number  of  cancer  deaths  in   
was  1,417,  the  rate  being  53.5  per  100,000.  Six  years  ago  cancer 
and  typhoid  caused  about  the  same  number  of  deaths  annually,  but 
typhoid  is  now  decreasing,  the  rate  being  34.4  per  100,000,  which  is 
19.1  less  than  the  cancer  rat«.  The  cancer,  tuberculosis  and  typhoid 
map  on  page shows  the  ratio  of  cancer  by  congressional  dis- 
tricts, and  examination  of  the  same  will  discover  the  fact  that  can- 
cer prevails  to  a  greater  degree  in  the  northern  centers  than  in  the 
central  or  southern.
