TIULLETIX OF THE NORTH CAROLINA BOARD OF HEALTH. 118 Small-pox. As was anticipated and predicted the recrudescence of small-pox has set in with the cold weather. The disease was present in nine counties in November, and it has appeared in three more counties, Granville 6, Vance 1, and Alexander 1, since the monthly reports were sent in. And it also looks as if our prediction that as the epidemic progressed the disease would become more severe in character, is finally going to be fulfilled. Dr. Boothe, of Granville, says "all cases severe except one,'' and Dr. Mal-loy, of Caswell, "I notice the form of the disease is much worse now than last spring. Nearly half are of the confluent variety." We fear we do not regret this as much as we perhaps should, because we hope it may be the means of impressing upon the people the importance of vaccination, for it becomes more and more manifest that the only thing which stops the disease finally is the vaccination of all the people. Review of Diseases for Xoveniber, 1900. eighty-seven counties reporting. Ninety-three counties have Superintendents of Health. Except in the case of the more contagious and dangerous diseases the Superintendent has, as a rule, to rely upon his own information alone, since few physicians can be induced to report cases of non-contagious diseases to him. Where the number of cases is not given or the prevalence of a disease otherwise indicated, its mere presence in the county is to be understood as reported. For the month of November the following diseases have been reported from the counties named: Measles—Beaufort, 4; Buncombe, 2; Cleveland, several; Columbus, in some parts; Granville, 4; Haywood, several; Mecklenburg, 100, mild; Moore, 2; Robeson,many; Stanly, in all parts; Swain, 2; Union, epidemic—12 counties. Whooping-cough—Beaufort, 3; Bertie, several; Bladen, several; Cabarrus, a few; Carteret; Chowan,several; Craven,8; Currituck, few cases; Graham, several; Granville, 8; Lincoln, in all parts; McDowell, 1; Macon, epidemic; Mecklenburg, 40, mild; Moore, several; New Hanover, 10; Rowan, 10; Rutherford, many; Stanly, in all parts; Wake, 1 ; Wayne, a few—20 counties. scari.atina—Columbus, many; Craven, 3; Davidson, 3; Granville, 1; Henderson, 2; Iredell, many; Macon, 2; Martin, 1; Mecklenburg, 10; Nash, 1; New Hanover, 2; Orange, 1; R<»ckingham; Union 6—14 counties.
