COURSE 29. KUBAL PUBLIC HEALTH 

 Pepared by W. B. HERMS, Assistant Professor of Parasitology. 



This course consists of a series of lessons on location and sanitation 

 of the home, sewage disposal, flies, malaria, disinfection, and other 

 rural health problems of California. The health resources of this 

 State are as vast as its natural resources and are as needful of pro- 

 tection and conservation as are the latter. 



The material in the course will apply to the family unit on the 

 larger or smaller ranch as well as to smaller typical rural communities. 

 Frequently communities of five thousand or more inhabitants are rural 

 from the health standpoint in that sewage disposal and general health 

 supervision are defective or inadequate. Treatment of disease will 

 not be considered, the viewpoint is essentially preventive.
