THE HEAX,TH BULLETIN 189 cerning sanitation that I never knew before. Since reading your paper I have screened my entire house, and Mr. Fly is not permitted to dwell beneath our roof. My wife kills every fly that sneaks in. We have instituted other sanitary precautions and as a result none of us have had a single case of infantam or dysentery this season. Our family consists of five children. Your exposures of the patent medicine faker have also impressed me so that I have learned to not take patent medicine or allow it in my house. This reminds me of another paper I am taking, which is published in your city, the BiUical Recorder. This paper carries many kinds of patent medicine advertisements, which causes us to wonder if the Lord is so poor that He has to resort to patent medicine dope to carry on His work of converting the world. The Recorder poisons its subscribers with patent medicine advertising. I suppose you have noticed this yourself. _ J. S. H. STOP IT. (Post Card) Southern Pines, N. C. Please stop my Health Bulletin, and oblige, Het.f.n T. Bainard. TIN as a parallel for study in one of the Biology courses at Trinity College. Irving E. Allen. AGIN PATENT MEDICINES. I am sending you a list of names to whom I would be glad to have you send the Health Bulletins as they are issued. I am especially interested in health matters that concern the farmers, and I find the "dope,'' or "patent" medicine business, one of the worst enemies the farmer has. I would be especially glad to have you send these people all the Bulletins you have along this line. I have refused to give The C—-— any matter because of its carrying these ads. and guess I am in for a fight on account of it. I subscribe to no papers that carry such ads., as I think this one of the most effective ways to fight the traffic that seems to be second only to the liquor traffic in its viciousness. A Farm Demonstrator. TRINITY USES HEALTH BULLETIN Durham, N. C. Please send me the He.vltii Bulletin regularly during the present school year. We are going to use the Bulle- HEALTH OFFICER WANTED. We have a fine courthouse and an up-to-date jail at our county seat (Asheboro) and that is all right,, but we have no whole-time health officer. Why? Near my house is a well where eight families get their drinking and general household water. This well is an open well with bucket and chain. The curb is half down and in less than fifty feet of it are two stables and two open-back privies. These people all live in company houses and this is a company well. Mention to any of these families the unsanitary condition of their water supply and they will say the company ought to fix it up, or some will say: *'Well, it don't seem to be killing any one," which is true so far. This is a small factory village and is not incorporated. As we have no whole-time health officer in our county our physician's hands are in a measure tied. This place is no worse, and in some ways better, than other villages in this county. I hope the time will soon come when old Randolph County can and will have a whole-time health officer. Mrs. C- ENCLOSES OXYBON FRAUD ADS. Rocky Mount. Don't you think these fellows ought to be exposed and the people warned against them? H. L. Holden. [We certainly do, but we haven't space to expose all the medicine fakers. Several are born every day.—Ed] COLLEGE GIRLS WANT BULLETIN. Hickory, N. C. I\Iy Dear Sir:—I have been much interested in the Health Bulletin ever since I received the first copy. I feel that it is doing a wonderful work. I am thoroughly in sympathy with your efforts to improve tne sanitary and hygienic conditions in North Carolina. I have tried to interest the students of our college in your valuable little magazine, and I am sending you the names of students who have signified their desire to receive the Health Bulletin regularly during their stay in college. K. B. Patterson, Secretary, Lenoir College.
