TWELFTH BIENjNTIAL REPORT. 29 Dr. Thomas : I would like to sav that I owe Dr. Stiles an apology for my error in iiitrodnciiig him. He is well known to this Society. V Dr. Julian : I am sorry that I did not get here in time to t.' o hear this very valuable paper of Dr. Stiles'; l)ut some years ago Dr. Stiles came to my town and assisted me in eradicating hookworm disease at the Thomasville Orphanage. At the time he assisted me he was satisfied the box privy was the source of the epidemic. T reported the matter to the trustees. We pulled down the box privies, dug a deep well, have water throughout the buildings and after a few months we have never seen a case of the disease. Dr. Lewis : I wish to call to the attention of the Society that the Laboratory, as it already knows, is ready to make examination of the faeces. All they have to do is to write the Laboratory at Raleigh for a container and send a sample of the faeces to the Director of the Laboratory. Dr. Julian: The examination is very easily made by any doctor who is acquainted with the microscope, by introducing the finger into the rectum, getting a small amount of the faeces, placing it on the slide, and in a few drops of water. Dr. Thomas: We will now have an address l)v Dr. Tait *j Butler, State Veterinarian of Xorth Carolina, on OUR MILK SUPPIA' AND SOME OF ITS RELATIONS TO PUBLIC HEALTH. Ill accepting the invitation of your Secretary, Dr. Lewis^ to read a paper at this meeting ou the public or market milk supply of the State, I did so with a distinct purpose in view. It is, perhaps, telling no secret, and it is certainly not meant offensively, if I state that the average practicing physician is none too familiar with the real problems involved in putting into the hands of consumers a wholesome milk supply. But this, in my opinion, is not of great importance. It is not necessary, however desirable, that the physician possess expert dairy knowledge or that he be capable of performing the duties of a scientific dairy inspector. A much more important matter, as affecting any effort for the improvement of our milk supply, is that he have a full and accurate knowledge of the real importance of pure milk for the consumption of those under his care.
