A Cause Of sickness.

Discounts claims that defor-
estation of a given region increases
the death rate. His argument is
founded on the investigations of
DIR, Jeaunel, who reports that the
mortality in the woodless depart
Inents of France is 1.64 per 100,
while in those with forests the
mortality is only .18 per 100.
The proportional loss then is nine
times greater in the thirty treeless
departments than in the fifty
seven wooded departments. If
