The Military return of admissions for Malaria also shows a marked reduction in the incidence of this disease as will be seen from the subjoined Table, when the quinquennial periods are considered. With reference to the increase in 1908 the Principal Medical Officer informs me that a third of these admissions came from Lyeemun.
