the statement that some had been

this by arguing that failure TO col

anti-toXin cost was no excuse for
letting our people pay enormous
prices for the medicine or else do
without IT. and after considerable
discussion about one hundred end
eight thousand units were ordered
We are now confronted by a
similar condition. This anti-toxin
has been used without all the
money therefor having been col

scattered through the county sew

This condition calls for action ON
the part OF the BOARD and we trust
that they may be broad-minded

of an inch thick for delivering dry sand
and cement mixed. an ordinary garden
hose for delivering water to the nozzle
of the gun, and the nozzle itself. The
latest form of nozzle is rubber lined to
prevent the mortar from sticking to II.
A mixture of fine sand and cement is
delivered to the nozzle at thirty pounds
pressure, and just before being dis
charged is met by a circular spray Of
water under a like pressure within the
nozzle, so that the wet mortar is pro-
jeCted on the surface to be covered. The
water supply is regulated at the nozzle
to obtain the proper consistency.
Triangular mesh is secured by staples
to the studding of the structure, and is
backed up by either heavy paper or wood
so that it will be in the center of a mass
of stucco l Ia inches thick when the
spraying is completed. In dwelling
houses the stucco is placed inside as well
as out. though inside il is not put on
so thickly. Smoothing is done by means
of a fine light spray Of mortar and no
trowel is necessary.
1t is estimated that. under normal con-
ditions, the gun can place ninety square
yards a day at a cost of about $1.13 a
square yard.
