The Topeka Daily State Journal Wednesday July 9, 1919 Smallpox Increase. Twenty-Five Cases Reported Here in Last Three Months.

The twenty-sixth case was reported this morning when the health department was notified that W.H. HAYNES of 1216 Boswell avenue, had contracted the disease. Altho Doctor Brown does not look for an epidemic, he says that the occurrence of smallpox has been unusually high for a city the size of Topeka. Conditions have been similar for some time to those existing prior to the big smallpox epidemic several years ago, which began at about this time of the year and continue until cold weather set in. There were sixty cases in the pest house at one time. According to the report of the state board of health, Doctor Brown stated, there were 337 cases of smallpox in Kansas in April. Topeka furnished 10 of these. Only three other cities furnished a large number but they had small epidemics. The larger reports were: Chanute, 68; Atchison, 61, and Wichita, 22. The health officer urges vaccination. If citizens do not care to take advantage of the free vaccinations that may be obtained at the city clinic, they should obtain them from their family physicians, he says.
