Fourth Biennial Report of the State Board of Health of California: For the Years 1876 and 1877 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Fourth Biennial Report of the State Board of Health of California: For the Years 1876 and 1877
It may not, however, be deemed inappropriate upon this occasion, to refer very briefly to some of the objects of Boards of Health, to the special duties which it has been considered incumbent upon them to perform, and to a few of the grand results which have been made manifest throu h the labors of such organizations, and of sanitarians in this an other countries. This seems to be especially fitting in View of the very evident misapprehension of this subject which, for a time, threatened the existence of the Board itself.
