PIGGERIES.
To the Editor. gm—Now that the Bcarlet fever has broken out at various parts of the town it might be well to oration families in the neighborhood against keeping pigs except at a respectable distance from dwelling-houses and wheie there is free ventilation, for nothing will more readily predispose people to take on either scarlet or t-ypbu* fever than the effluvia which necessarily arise from pigbouses. All the more needful is this caution at the present hot season of the year. It may be dear pork to dai.biers in this traffic if they neglect the most obvious precautions to check the spread of di«eases known to have ■uchaßtrong affinity for bad smells.-- I am,&c. Thomas, Dunedin, January 12.
