experimental stage, the outlook from preliminary work appears

hopeful - indeed, so much so that the Government is advised to

encourage its use generally, The laboratory is prepared at

present to supply vaccine adequate into the needs of the Colony.

With respect to the patient and his environment, it has

been shown that immediate isolation of the patient is necessary.

The definite clinical knowledge of the disease and the more
