Book Description
Excerpt from Public Health Reports and Papers, Vol. 2: Presented at the Meetings of the American Public Health Association in the Years 1874-1875; With an Abstract of the Record of Proceedings 1872-1875 The American Public Health Association entered on the fourth year of its existence with a greater number of written contributions from its members than could be published in its second volume of Transactions. The Publish ing Committee, which was appointed at the third annual meeting, has there fore placed in this volume as many of the reports and papers of 1874 and 1875 as practicable, selecting those which deserved early publication, and securing in them as great a degree of condensation as possible. An abstract of all proceedings and minutes of the successive meetings of the Association, from its organization in 1872 to the Close of its third year, is also published in this volume, as directed by the Executive Committee. Several papers necessarily omitted from this volume, though arranged to be published in it, may be issued in the succeeding one. Numerous other contributions received at the annual meetings, have been given to the scientific journals, While others still are being used in the prosecution of further observation and study by the authors. The effectual utilization of all the reports and papers contributed by members of the Association is thus secured; and it is believed that with the present increasing care in prepar ing reports and contributions, and the growing demand for such sanitary publications, the transactions of the Association will henceforth be issued soon after each annual meeting.
