year at Seaton lake instead of placing
all the sockeye salmon eggs in traps,
as had been the custom hereto
fore, a plan was adopted more in
keeping with the natural methods fol-
lowed by the fish The eggs, after
having been inoculated with the
lymph, were buried under five to seven
inches of sand and gravel. Over 2OO,'
900 ova we're thus treated in tanks
especially made therefor, and as re-

how many French and Russians. II
these figures may be accepted as ap-
proximately accurate, the number VINO
would have died of sickness, based on
the ratio of four to one, would nave
been in excess of half a million men,
not including the French and Russian
whose battle losses have not been
made public.
It is the opinion of eminent military
medical experts in this city, however
that modern armies have such I'M

portion of death through disease ana
gunshot will be shown to have materl-
ally changed when actual figures on
the casualties are known.
History reveals a terrible record OF
military deaths through disease, and
the last great example of this was in
stanced in our own war with Spain.
In that war more than thirteen of our
men were sacrificed to disease result
ing from sanitary ignorance and in
competency to every one who died in
battle.
In the Russo-Turkish war occurred
another shocking case of loss OF life
from preventable diseases. In this
struggle 10000 soldiers were killed on
the field Of battle or died Of their
wounds; $4,000 perished from disease.
] During six months of the Crimean cam
paign the allied forces lost $4,000 men
from sickness and but 1000 from the
| fire of the enemy. Cholera was one
of the principal causes of this disas'
trous loss of life Sometimes whole
regiments contracted the malady and
were completely wiped out. At that
time the nature of the disease was not
understood, and precautions against
infection through water supplies and
food we're not taken. Consequently q
single case might result in wholesale
infection.
Cholera has long been the dread oi
armies operating in localities where
the malady fourishes. 1t was apparent
in the Balkan war, when both the
Turks and the allies lost heavily from
the disease. Eyewitnesses to thai
struggle told of seeing marching col
umns from which every few minutes
men would drop and drag themselves
off to one side to die. Some of these
regiments lost half their numbers be

number OF men engaged. But Sig
nificant among all of them towers
record not of destruction but OF
preservation. This is the record for
disease prevention. And when you
consider that nearly all other wars
during the last 200 years have shown
four men dead of disease to one OF
bullet wounds the Importance OF this
last record in the present conflict be-
gins to be appreciated.
Several things initiate toward max
ing the war in Europe devoid OF those
terrible epidemics Of sickness which
in every great conflict from ancient
times have occasionally swept down
and devastated the armies OF the COM
batants. One of these is the healthiul
| climate In which the fighting IS golhs
on. But more of a factor still are the
splendid sanitary measures for preVen-
ton with which the battling armies
are equipped.
These systems are without eXcep-
ton the outgrowth Of the last nine
years. In 1905, when Japan went 10
war with Russia, she taught a lesson
that the western world will never Tor
get Prior to that time the medlcal
corps of an army consisted OF neld
surgeons and nurses to care Tor the
wounded But Japan took with her
yellow fighters $4,000 men whose sole
duty it was to guard the lighting army
against the perils of disease. 1t was a
great. carefully organized sanitary
corps, the first of its kind and size 10
he seen. The fact that three Japanese
were killed by bullets to every one that
died of sickness instead of four dying
from disease to one of bullets, as IN
all preyious wars, was simple but am
ple testimony as to the efficiency oi
those $4,000 sanitary protectors.
From that time onward the western
movers we're quick to to take up
lesson they had so long neglected AND
now the men who are fighting II
France and Germany are guarded iron

crate sanitation systems.
For instance, the German army o
invasion is accompanied by great mo
tor.driven sterilizers in which every
drop of water drunk by the soldiers
has first been rid of possible contami
nation. The French and English arm
les have a microscope brigade, whose
duty it is to make meteorological ex
aminations of all water supplies before

insnectors who test food and sanitar.
inspectors who go ahead to arrang'
for the sanitation on camp sites and t
do picket duty against pollution o

The soldiers who have seen cam

ease.
Medical and sanitary experts of tn
vorld are busy speculating, in the at
sence of real news, on the number
deaths from disease in the battlin
armies in Europe. Longmore's table
of war statistics show that in the bal
