Death of 46 males and 38 fe males in October and 31 and 25 in November brought the year's aggregate to 807, well above the 731 for the same period last year. These included four infant deaths in October and one last month. As usual, heart disease led as a cause of death, in- 22 cases in November, followed by apoplexy 8 and cancer 6, while syphilis caused 2 deaths. Leading communicable diseases in November were broncho pneu monia 15 and measles 14. Dr. W. J. Stone, county health officer, reported to the commit tee on two recent conclaves, the governor's conference on accident prevention and the state rural health conference.
