feteriOrating
In the United States public health
has been regarded almost exclusively
as a matter of protection against
germs; but protection against germs,
while effective in defending us from
plague and other cpidemics of acute
diseases. is almost powerless to pre-
vent the chronic diseases of middle
and late life.
These maladies-BriSht's dlsease
heart disease, nervous breakdown
are due primarily to unhygienlc per-
sonal habits.
Medical inspection and instruc-
tion in schools. as well as Swedish
gymnastics, have aided greatly in the
muscular development of the citizens
of Sweden. Swedish hard bread has
preserved their teeth. The Gothen-
burg system is gradually weaving
them from alcohol There has even
been strong movement against the
use of tobacco
There are three great agencies to
which we must look for the saving
of human life in the future, and it
has been the object of the committee
of one hundred on national health
of which l am president, to help stir
these three agencies into activity IN
this country. They are the public
nress, the insurance companies and
the government
a few years ago, popular articles
on public health were seldom seen,
because the public and the press
thought the subject of disease un-
interesting and repulsive. Today, on
the other hand, one can scarcely pick
up a popular magazine without find
ing not only one but several articles
dealing with the questions of public
health.

Fisher. professor of political economy

delegates to the national cOnserva-

the insurance companies and the fed
eral government We're the three great
agencies to which the people of the
country must look for the saving of

As first step in the great works
Of human conservation, Prof. Fisher
urged the establishment of an ade-
quate system of collecting and dis
tributing vital statistics similar to
the system in use in Sweden.
Prof. Fisher said in part:
Probably the greatest hygienic
achievement of any country thus far
is that of Sweden, where the duration
of life is the longest, the mortality
the least and the improvements the
most general. There alone can it be
said that the chances of life have
been improved for all ages of life.
Infancy, middle age and old age
today show a lower mortality in
Sweden than in times past, while in
other countries, including the Unit
ed States, although we can boast Of
some reduction in infant mortality,
the mortality after middle age is
growing worse and the innate vital

OFFICIAL REPORT Of

The following is the official report
OF Trustees Norton, Sprouse and Swan
son, as filed with the board in connec-
ton with the trip to Phoenix:
Ell CENTRIC, oct. 14-To the CITY
Trustees, City of Ell Centro.-GentIe.
men: Your committee appointed to in
vestigate the city pavement of the
city of. Phoenix, Arizona, beg leave ia
report that we visited that city Satur-
day. October IL, and spent the entire
day examining the pavements already
placed, those in course of construction.
the preparation of material, etc We
interviewed officers of the paving com
pany now putting in pavements. city
officials and citizens.
Phoenix is a city of 10000 popuIa
tion 1t has about 40 blocks paved
with whot is known as "bitulithis"
pavement, and from our investigation.
which was thorough, we would unani-
mously recommend it for Ell Centre.
Some of the Phoenix streets were
paved over year ago and have been
subjected TO the intense heat of that
climate for two summers, a sufficient
test, we think, to demonstrate the
adaptability of the bitulithic to a hot
climate
The method of laying the pavement
is briefly as follows After the soil
has been removed to the required
depth and the necessary contour has
been made, the street is rolled with
12-ton steam roller. When the base
is sufficiently firm a layer of concrete
five inches thick composed Of cement.
sand and gravel, in the proportion of
one, three and six, is spread upon the
base and thoroughly rolled. In the
hardening process the concrete is
treated with water in the usual way.
When thoroughly hard the bitulithic
wearing surface is applied This *
two inches thick and is composed Of
crushed rock one and one-half inche +;
in thickness down to the finest DOW
der. The smaller stones, sand and
powder being provided to fill the voids
between the larger stones This ma
terial is heated to a temperature of
between 200 and 500 degrees, com
blned in the proper proportion of
gravel sand and dus: and then mixed
with bituminous cement which has
also been subjected to an intense
heat. After the whole is run through
a rotary mixer it is dumped into
wagons and hauled upon the street hot
spread and rolled with heavy rollers.
L he finishing coat is quick driving,
cement and coat of finely crushed a
rock. thoroughly rolled
While the climatic conditions here
and at Phoenix are somewhat similar
the soil conditions are different We
realize that FL Centre has a peculiar
soil, solid and capable of standing up
under the heaviest traffic, yet very
unstable when moist. Any pavement
that is put down here must be 50
placed as to exclude all moisture
R-tulithic is absolutely water proof
ana that Is one of the reasons WHY
IL appeals to us. Other points in its
favor are: Resistance to wear; it does
not crack; ii does not chip; it is prac-
tcally nOiseless; horses do not slim
upon it; autos do not skid
