LEEWARD ISLANDS (ST. Christopher-Nevis).
THE ADMINISTRATOR to THE GOVERNOR. (Received in Colonial Office 29 June, 1908.)
Government House, St. Kitts, West Indies,
2 June, 1908. In reply to Your Excellency's despatch, No. 180, of 26th May, I have the honour to report that with a view to assist in the destruction of mosquitoes a sum of £200 has been provided on the Estimates of the current year for the purpose of filling up and draining what is known as the "Pond Pasture," near Basseterre. This "Pond Pasture" is considered to be the chief breeding ground of mosquitoes in the vicinity of the town, and I am advised that the measures which it has been decided to take with respect to it will go far towards lessening the number of these insects. The work is now about to be taken in hand.
2. Further, there has been introduced in the Legislative Council and read a second time a Billt entitled "The Mosquito Ordinance," which follows the lines of the law introduced in British Honduras as a result of the visit of Professor Boyce paid to that Colony after the outbreak of yellow fever there some years ago. This Ordinance is to be considered in Committee of the Council at its next meeting. I enclose a copy of it for convenience of reference.
3. I am of opinion that if the provisions of this Ordinance are rigorously enforced much good will be done, and the plague of mosquitoes which, by the way, only occurs now and then, and is by no means always prevalent, will be greatly lessened.
I have, &c.,
T. LAURENCE ROXBURGH,
Administrator.
