EFFECT OF SANITATION.
American Control Cut Down Death
Rate in Panama.

AS an indication of the reduced death
rate In Panama that has followed the i'm
proved sanitary condition of the isthmus
since the American occupation. a report
on the subject by the Mexican government
shows that whereas the death rate during
the French occupation was 112 per 1000, it
is now only per 1000. This is taken to
show that the climate of the isthmus is
not necessarily deadly and that all that Is
needed is proper attention to sanitation to
make that part of the world quite desir-
able for the residence of white people as
any other part of the tropics.
