The positive cases treated with appropriate anthelmintics iperazine adipate and Bephenium hydroxynaphthoate etc.). Additionally, the resistance of ascaris and hook-
eggs in. methane gas producing tanks which were provided in I je-village were examined. The first year
U are summarized as follows:
The incidence of ascaris in Ije-village was 63.0% (184 out of 291 examined) before treatment and 70.5% titer 10 months, but the worm burden (E.P.G./gm feces) was 26,731 before treatment in average and 6,018 n´ months later.
-Yongyon, the incidence and worm burden in the same period changed from 77.1% (108 out of 140 exined) to 63.0% an& 22,091/E.P.G. to 4,709/E.P.G.
Incidence of hookworm before treatment was 36(12.4%)out of 291 examined in Ije village, and 29(20.7/) t of. 140 examined ´in Yongyon village. After the treatment, the positives were only two in both villages
pectively. On the third examination after the second treatment, the remaining two positives became gative.
