. Should Trepac for Bubonic Plague.
The Bubonic plague fs the far
, off evil that seems to.defy man's
staying hand and it is freely pre
dicted that it will yet reaqh the
American shores'. A. Chicago
dispath of the 27th 'quotes Dr.
Edwin Klebs, profes'spx of Pa
thology and post graduate of a
medical school, as saying that
tha United' States Government
should make preparations- for a
' .visi-t of the Bubonic plague. . He
points out as significant! that
Frange, - Gernlany, . Russia and
Italy, are- making Pasteur anti
toxin and 'suggests that - the
. United ' States Department jof
Agriculture be authorized by
Congress 'to establish . serum
' stations on isla.nds in the Pacific
and -Atlantic oceans and-perhaps
in the creat lakes. Dr. Klebs'
idea came from h,is careful watch
"of the spread ol the; disease and
. from the tact thatin 1806 at Can-
ton, amoy administration of Pas
te'ur antrtoiin roduce'd-th& death
rate from : 90 per cent to fyom 9
to 13 per cent, but it requires a
year.to perfect antitoxin.'
