The board quotes‘that report from Montana: “The research laboratory of the United States public health service at Hamifton Is doing valua- ble work in its attempt. to solve the whole Rocky Mountain spotted fever problem. Drs, Spencer and Parkes have devoted their best efforts to the perfecting of an immunizing vac- cine. At the present time the out- look 1s most encouraging. Dr. Spen- cer, with the courage of his convie- tions, Rdministered to himsel? the first dose of this vaccine ever ad- ministered to a human. A recent re- port from the doctor indicates that he has been able to immunize guinea pigs with his own blood serum. This would tend to show ‘that the doctor has succeeded in producing a vaccine of very great value.” The disease is epread by tieks. It has a high mortality percentage.
