CI THE- - ASSOCIATION NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION Scarlet fever, sometimes known as scarlatina, is a well known infectious disease of children and by young adults characterized fever, sore throat, and rash. The illness usually lasts from a few days to a week and is ordinarily mild. However, because of the occasional occurrence of more severe complications such as infection of the ears, acute rheumatic fever, and inflammation of the kidney, it must be listed as one of the more severe diseases of childhood. The cause of the disease is a germ known as the Streptococcus. This is a germ that is well known for the many different types of disease which it may cause, among them the "strep sore throat and infections of the skin such as pimples and boils. It is the germ which is most often responsible for the rapidly developing infection of tissues (cellulitis) with accompanying blood poisoning. The important part of the infection in scarlet fever is usually the infection of the throat. It is an interesting fact that several persons may be infected with exactly the same germ in their throats; some will have the accompanying rash which therefore designates the disease as scarlet fever, whereas others will have the throat infection without the rash in which case it will be called a streptococcal infection of the throat. The difference in the two situations is apparently that the persons who have the rash have no immunity to this particular poison or toxin which is made by the germ and therefore develop a rash. The persons who have the sore throat without the rash have apparently had previous infection with a Strepticoccus which is a producer of this particular toxin and have developed immunity to it; they therefore do not have the rash. For the sake of those persons who are infected and for the sake of the family and the rest of the community, it is important to recognize that exactly the Beta-hemolyt- 29 Source of A weekly newspaper published in . . .

Sheep and himb numbers were small and the market is mostly unchanged. Once again it was a case of just too many cattle of one class being offered here and buyers were able to work quotations to lower levels. Medium and lower grades of steers, yearlings and heifers lost from $1 to l.r.u and cows showed similar losses. Strictly choice fed offerings were scarce and are mostly steady. Thus, the range ot prices on slaughter cattle has widened out again and is now the widest of the season. A few loads of average choice steers and yearlings sold this week from $22. bo to .2 with an odd load or two at $2 bio and a short load leached the toji of $2 1.7.". Most of the good grade offerings sold from .$20 to $22 while the bulk of the medium grades went at $17 to $10. Killers were getting some of the plainer cattle down to $11. Heifer numbers were small. A few fed offerings sold from $10 to $22.90 while medium kinds went down to $17 and quite a few common offerings at $15 and down. Cow's were slow sale at all times.

A large number of effective agents for treatment of streptococcal disease are now avail-ablThe choice of the individual drug and procedures to be used would depend on the particular situation involved. And you should consult your M.D. physician. Before the develojiment of modern drugs, scarlet fever in a family resulted in quarantine of the patient and many or all of the members of the family. Since adequate treatment now will eradicate most of the germs from the throats of infected persons within a few days, the prolonged periods of quarantine are no longer necessary. It is, however, very important to isolate the infected person, whether they have scarlet fever or a streptococcal sore throat, in order to protect other members of the family and the community. There is no specific immunization which will prevent the development of streptococcal infections, although there has been some use of an immunization which will protect the child from the effects of the toxin produced by this organism and thus will keep the child from having the rash of scarlet fever. One of the most important measures for protection of children from streptococcal infections is to keep them from having contact with acutely ill persons. For isolation purposes, the infections of scarlet fever and streptococcal sore throat should be considered in exactly the same light. Any person with streptococcal sore throat or scarlet fever should be isolated from close contact with other persons as nearly as possible during the acute stage of the illness. This infection is transmitted primarily by direct or close contact with the patient or with the excretions from his nose and throat. All materials which have been in contact with infected patients should be cleansed with soap and water, should be boiled if possible, or should be exposed to sunlight for a period of several hours. Thorough cleaning of the room in which an infected patient has been confined is highly desirable at the end of the illness. It is not necessary to use strong disinfectants provided there has been liberal use of soap and water for washable surfaces and adequate exposure to fresh air and sunlight. e. with a wedding reception Saturday August 29th at the Layton Fourth ward amusement hall.
