In the work of the bureau of animal
Industry in dealing with infectious dis
eases Of live stock 1t has been found
that the average stockman and farmer
does not realize the importance of thor
oughly dlsinfecting his premises fol-
lowing an outbreak of contagious dis
ease. There is apparently widespread
lack of information regarding the
germicidal power of various sub
stances, commonly termed disinfect-
ANTS There is also a lack OF knowl-
edge concerning practical and econom-
lcal methods of proceeding with the
work of disinfection. Moreover, the
temperance of a contagious disease
on premises from which it was be-
lieved TO have been eradicated may
frequently be traced to careless or i'm
perfect work in connection with the
cleaning and disinfecting of the place.
1t is but natural to acknowledge the
presence of only such objects as can
be seen with the unaided eye. Science,
however, by means of the high-power
microscope, has clearly proved the ex-
l3tence of numerous minute animal and
vegetable -microorganisms

edge that many Of these organisms fire.
quently find their way into the animal
body and produce disease. II is also
well known that these micro-organ-
isms, or germs, vary in form and 9TH
er characteristics and that for each
disease of an infectious nature there
Is a specific germ.
The work of disinfection is based
upon our recognition of the presence
Of disease germs, and dlsinfection
means the act OF destroying the cause
Of the infection. In other words, disin-
fection is a removal of the cause, and
1t will be clear to any practical man
that in dealing with disease any effort
which stops short OF a complete re-
moval of the cause is most unwise and
Improbable. To those unaccustomed
to the work, disinfection may seem a
most complicated process. Any ap-
proved method, however. is compare
