SCARLET FEVER.
From table No. 1 it will be seen that Scarlet
Fever was the most prevalent disease, the number
of cases admitted, however, was very small as compared
with 1909, when there were 524 cases.
The diminution in Diphtheria cases was not
so appreciable, the admissions for that disease
being 134, as compared with 160 in the preceding
year.
