CARBOLIC ACID.

Application.-Mixedi in the proportion OF
Que part of the acid To from forty to one
hundred parts of water, carbolic acid has a
wide range of application as an antiseptic
and disinfectant. For purposes of thor
ough destruction of disease germs, a solu-
ton of not less than two per cent. of the
acid should be employed. When used TO
disinfect clothing, solution of one part of
the acid to one hundred parts Of water would
be an appropriate strength.
CarbOlic acid is believed to be an effectual
agent in the destruction of every commune
cable virus Of disease, and by its antiseptic
property prevents those kinds OF fermenta-
ton and decay which aid in propas ating
epidemics.
How Used.-In solution in water of vary
ing strength, according to the pur-
poses to which it is to be applied. 1t
is especially adapted to disinfect sewage,
foul grounds, drains, sinks, foul heaps OF
manure or garbage, stables, privies and the
air of a foul place in which any pestilential
disease exists.

most malignant form. brought on By a To-
cal cause. About three wee ks ago, parties
interested at the mill at this place eohclud-
ed, as the pond was nearly dry. to cut it
and clean it out, which they did, and il was
the worst hole you nearly ever saw, The

sULPHURIC ACID GAS.

sULPHURIC ACID GAS.
Application.-To disinfect rooms and in
tected clothing. Applied only in case OF
unoccupied rooms. To be etfectual in de-
Stroying disease germs, the fumes must he
so strong that they would destroy human
life.
How Used.-Place in an earthern vessel
or iron kettle containing a small quantity
OF ashes, few live Goals, upon which place
from one to four pounds of sui phur, in pow
der or fragments, according to the size of
the room. One and One-halt ounces is the
proper quantintity to each 100 cubic feet of
space.
To guard against accident by fire, it is
well 10 place the vessel on some tire-proof
article or suspend it over tub of water
As soon as the sulpher is ignited, the room
having previously been rendered tight,
should be closed and remain closed for
twelve or twenty-four hours.
Ventilation, and painting the wood work,
White-washing and re-papering the walls
will complete the process, and fit the room
for re Ina bitation.
DRY EARTH.
AppIicatinn--To absorb effIuvia from de-
caying animal and vegetable matter and
appropriately human eXcreta.
Dry earth is nearly a complete disinfect-
ant, used in sufficient quantities to absorb
al! mo.s.ure. IL should be abundantly APP
piled.
FRESH STONE LIME.
ApplicatiOn.-To absorb III DISTURB and pu-
trid fluids.
How Used.-Pulverized and scattered over
places to dry. In damp rooms, it should be
placed in pans in liberal quantities. Mixed
with water, it is used to lime wash walls
and ceilings. 1t is useful when spread over
heaps of fresh manure as preventative.
There are a number of other disinfectants,
but the above will, it is believed, meet all
ordinary demands.
The efficiency of disinfectants in all cases
will depend upon the thOroughness with
which they are applied. 1t may be re-
marked that they are almost always used
too sparingly.
