SIXTH BIENNIAL REPORT. 23 part of the people of Trenton ; but, instead of an increase in tlie amount of malaria during that August and September, if there was any difference at all, there was less than there wms before. The President reported a series of cases from Jacksonville, ]Sr. C., bearing upon this (juestion. The town is practically enclosed by New River ; it is in Onslow county. On the point of this peninsula is situated a large saw-milling plant. These patients (all yoiing men), having been warned of the dangers, had used Apollinaris and other bottled spring waters. AW of the water was abs<j-lutely ])rotected, but they had frequent and severe attacks of malaria. He suggested to these youno; men that, in addition to the care they exercised, they insist upon their cook l>oiling every day the water used in cooking their food that came from a well outside 140 feet deep. It went down through the mud layer and the layer of sand and layer of clay. So far the experiment of bniling the water has done very well. One of the young gentlemen has had occasional outbreak of malaria. There has been ro si^ii of an outbreak among the others simje tlie boiling began. Dr. O. McMuHan said that he had read Dr. Lewis' pani-phlet. His experience ran back some twelve years or more in the eastern part of the country, and it went to show that malarial troubles were greatly diminished in 1884 and 1885, when there were very little. Frequently through whole years only four or five cases are heard of. The people all improved when the open wells and springs were first substituted by driven pumps; but the chills are all coming back again. In the year 1893 there was a decided change, and in the spring the })eople all over the country began to have chills. He thought t^^at there must be some fallacy in the theory that the water was the cause of tlie chills and fever. Dr. Sikes wished to corroborate what had just been said.
