I . ■ • I ^ SIXTH BIE^^MAL KEPORT. 98 MALARIA AND DPJXKING WATER. In the appendix of tlie last Biennial lieport there was printed as a part of the proceedings of the Salisbury Health Conference, a paper read before that meeting by the Secretary of the Board entitled Drinking Water in Its Relation to Malarial Diseases.'' It was published in The Sanitarian and attracted attention all over the country, receiving editorial consideration in some of the great New York dailies, The Independent^ the Baltimore Sun^ the St. Louis Globe-Democrat^ the Charleston News-Courier^ and others. By order of the Board it was reprinted in separate form and in 1895 was distributed as one of the health pamphlets. Wishing to ascertain if any good had been accomplished by it, the following circular letter was mailed to several hundred physicians residing in the eastern section of the State : Raleigh, December 7, 1896. Dear Doctor :—Not quite two years ago the Board distributed throughout the State, particularly the eastern i^art, a pamphlet on ''Drinking Water in its Relation to Malarial Diseases'' in which the dangers of surface water, as from the ordinary wells of that section, Avere set forth, and a change therefrom to cisterns, deep bored -svells, or driven pumps advocated. The Board now desires to ascertain if its efforts in that dire3tion have borne fruit. Will you, therefore, kindly answer the following questions in the spaces allowed and return to me as soon as possible ? 1. To what extent, as near as you can come at it, has the suggested change in drinking water taken place in your community? r.yy'.
