FANS AND BACTERIA.
Effects of VentiIators Are Harmful
Rather Than Beneficial.

Rather Than Beneficial.
In Brussels an investigation has been
made Of the effect Of rentllating fans
in restaurants and other public places,
says the Scientific American. Some Of
the ventilators simply agitated the air.
while others were connected with
openings in the wall. The experiments
were made by determining the number
of bacteria in q cubic meter Of air be-
fore the ventilator had been started
and after 1t had been running an hour
or two hours. The results may be sum-
married. as follows:
In q number of cafes and restau-
rants the number of bacteria in a
cubic meter Of air in the morning be-
fore the ventilators were serted
ranged from 10000 to 22,O0O After an
hours running the number ranged
from 1900 to $4,000. After two hours
running the number ranged from 81
500 to $1,000. Another experiment was
made in 4 LAT JratOry where remedies

the number OF bacteria rose from $500
before the ventilator was started to
$1,000 after one hours running and to
$4,000 after two hours run" y, :.
Another experiment WA q ,dc in a
private parlor The number Of bac-
terra per cubic meter. GjO before the
starting of the ventilat0r. rose to $500
in one hour and to 1000 in two hours.
The ventilator was then stopped. Two
hours later the number of bacteria
per cubic meter had fallen to 100.
These figures are so eloquent that no
further discussion is needed to show
that the ventilators used in all these
cases did far more harm than good by
creating 4 lively current of air, which
stirred up and carried with it dust
containing bacteria.
