INDIGENOUS DRUGS OF INDIA.

SEP. 1892. | A. R. S. ANDERSON
The passage discusses the causes and prevention of Enteric fever in various Indian military stations, highlighting the importance of clean water and improved sanitation. It mentions specific cases where the outbreak was linked to contaminated water sources, such as springs and roads, and emphasizes the need for artificial water supplies, improved drainage, and the removal of excreta from crowded areas. The text also touches on the challenges in studying indigenous drugs of India due to a lack of practical knowledge and resources, and includes a case study of a patient with a urinary tract stone and a piece of wood found in his bladder, which was likely a result of traditional treatment. Additionally, the passage covers topics such as the alkaloid content in Datura plants from the Federated Malay States, the impact of rats on plague epidemics in Giridih, and the recognition of Sir George Buchanan for his contributions to preventive medicine. It also mentions the Hong Kong College of Medicine for Chinese, where diplomas and prizes were awarded to students based on their professional examinations.The passage discusses the causes and prevention of Enteric fever in various Indian military stations, highlighting the importance of clean water and improved sanitation.
