foes with a minimum OF pam to the IN
jured soldier and thus TO bring about
rate of recovery that was in striking con-
trast TO the results obtained by other
means elsewhere.
After Dr. Carrel had worked out his
method by months of painstaking work
at his hospital at Compiegne he returned
to the United States and became the
guiding genius of the War Demonstra-
ton Hospital. The purpose of that base
hospital was to qualify American mill
tary surgeons for the tasks ahead of
them, and to-day it embodies all that has
been learned abroad in addition to dis
coveries which have been made here
within the last twelve months. Besides
giving direct instruction it is using NOV
ing pictures to familiarize the medical
fraternity with the Carrel-Dakin system
Of treating infected wounds.
Film Shows Carrers Method.
Last fall the Rockefeller Institute had
prepared for distribution among hos
pitfalls, both here and abroad, an educa-
tional film illustrating all of the essen
tials Of the treatment. This was done
under the direction of DR.. Carrel, and he
actually figured in the more important
parts of the movie where some of the
critical niceties were involved. Each pic
ture was followed by brief but COM
plete explanatory text, and the illustra-
tions and the descriptions together left
nothing TO guesswork. This put the
training needful to the successful appli-
cation of the method within reach Of
hundreds, even thousands, of doctors who
otherwise could not avail themselves of
the course at the hospital in New York
city.
The general public has been inclined
TO believe that the treatment involves
nothing more complicated than feeding
Dakin's solution from suspended reser-
voir down through rubber tubing into
the wound, where the pipe is pierced by
numerous small perforations. Such is by
no means the case.

By ROBERT C. SKERRETT.

Viz HidJoilty VI lhc HeulCdl lIateI-
i nifty would but a short time ago
have pronounced impossible just what is
now being achieved well nigh daily in the
War Demonstration Hospital. The re-
suits promise TO be Of Unreasonable i'm
portance in the treatment Of wounds
received by the soldiers we are sending to
the firing line of Europe.
Last spring the Rockefeller Founda-
ton, through the Rockefeller Institute
for Medical Research, decided to build
a portable military base hospital with
capacity of seventy beds on the grounds
of the institute in this city. Experience
OIL the western front had made il evident
that improvisation and fimsy construc-
ton do not pay in base hospitals. Heat
ing, ventilating and such kitchen, laundry
and sanitary conveniences as would en-
able the staff to give patients care equiv
alent to that to be had in reasonably
equipped modern hospital were some Of
the features provided.
The War Demonstration Hospital is
complete in its arrangement and its equip
ment. 1t is built in sections and can be
taken down and moved on motor trucks
TO any site. In short, it represents all
those essentials in the way of mobility
ard effectiveness which both the French
and the British found needful in an up to
date base hospital.
Planned as Instruction Centre.
The structure is of the double walled
type, with roof of similar construction,
and the building is thus well protected
against both heat and cold. But admit
rable as the hospital is from an archi
tectural viewpoint, its preeminent reason
for being is to serve as an Institutional
centre for demonstrating the Carrel
Dakin method of sterilizing wounds by
periodic irrigation with a germ destroy
ing fluid.
The hospital has now completed its first
years work and has famiharized some
thing like 500 naval and military sur
geons with the revolutionary treatment
Of infected wounds. Many scores of
patients have benefited in the meanwhile.
Most of them have been victims of street
and industrial accidents, being chosen, as
a rule, because of the gravity of their
condition and the fact that their hurts
had persistently refused to heal under
other technique.
The fertile lands of the battlefield of
the western front TEEN with micro organ
isms because of the plant foods that have
been placed upon them for decades, and
ever present are germs of tetanus, gas
gangrene, putrefactive organisms, &c.
These are carried about by dust and mud
and the men in the trenches have them
upon their skin ready to inoculate wounds
the moment the protective cuticle is
broken. How 10 deal with this state of
affairs was the problem confronting the
military surgeons in Europe after the
outbreak. of hostilities.
Some of them, and among these were
men Of worldwide reputation, said that

course must be pursued without cease Tor
days and possibly weeks, depending upon
the viruIlence of the infection and the
nature of the wound, until the number of
bacili has been so reduced that the hurt
is Surgically sterile and ready for closing.
But before wound can be stitched
and the stcrilizlng process stopped the
surgeon has to make sure that all IS gong
well. He cannot do this, as has been the
common practice in the past, by exam
nation with the unaided eye DIR. Carrcl
has made it plain that superficial appear
ances are deceptive, and therefore insists
upon employing mediums which substan-
tally eliminate the likelihood of an error
of Judgment. These aids are the micro
scope and certain charts which serve as
positive checks upon faulty assumptions,
and in fact check each other.
BY means OF smears upon thin glass
slides archaeological tests are made Of
parts of wound where germs are like
hest to persist, and these smears are
examined under the microscope and the
number of bacilli counted in each field.
In time the daily archaeological exam
ination discloses the fact that there is
not TO be found more than one bacillus
in every ten fields, each of 10 mile
meters. Then the attending physician
may close the wound, provided the other
chart is in agreement.
Rrouoht 70 +. Eoru. 80 Er,n..
This chart is the result of some dis
coveries made ten years ago by DIR. Carrel
at the Rockefeller Institute and brought
to focus by other work done at Com
piegne. In 1908 he found that the rate
of repair or healing of wound in a
normal person, if the wound was unin-
fected, was determined by the original
area Of the injury. At Compiegne a
young French physicist, Capt. Lecomte
du Nouy, evolved an algebraic formula
which would answer in dealing with the
case of any wounded soldier.
1t was necessary only to measure the
area of the wound upon arrival at the
hospital and from this to trace a control
curve which would indicate Just what the
diminishing area Of the wound should be
upon succeeding days if the repair was
not impeded by infection. Every two
days thereafter another measurement
was made, and if this did not approx
mate with reasonable closeness that Of
the control then it was evident that infec-
ton uoe rooponc;hlo
Capt. Lecomte du Nouy devised SIM
pie process for the taking of wound
measurements. Thin transparent steril-
lied sheets of celluoid were laid over the
injured areas and their contours traced
by means of camel's hair brush and
India ink. These outlines were then
transferred to white paper and their
contained areas determined by a well
known instrument, the planimeter, found
in most drafting rooms.
At the War Demonstration Hospital, as
at Compiegne, an open hurt can now be
cloeed confidently and without fear Of
secondary infection if the archaeological
and the area charts are in accord. The

only prompt amputation of an injured
limb so infected could save the soldier;
others hoped that less radical measures
might suffice. DR.. Alexis Carrel Of the
Rockefeller Institute proceeded on a
theory of his own. He realized that the
conditions of the theatre of war and the
unavoidable delays in giving the injured
soldiers their first surgical attention made
the infected wound almost inevitable.
He accepted infection as matter of
course and centred his efforts upon devils
ing ways and means by which to deal the
germs death blow.
Starting in Paris and bringing his work
to climax at his special hospital at Com
piegne, France, he drew upon fund of
exceptional richness in the field of re-
search and in some of the most notable
departments of present day surgery. His
problem was to discover an antiseptic
which would prove equally effective in
dealing with dozens of types of germs,
but which should not be irritating to the
tissues
1t is a matter Of general knowledge
now that Dr. H. d. Dakin of New York,
DIR. Maurice Daufresne of Paris and
Nine. Carrel helped DIR. Carrel in the
search for suitable sterilizing medium.
Several hundred experiments were made
before hypochlorite of soda was hit upon.
1t is much more potent than many ac-
copied germicides and yet, unlike them,
Of benefit when in contact with the ex-
posed sensitive tissues of gaping wound.
Destroys Bacilli Only.
The sterilizing solution has no curative
virtues, but it plays its part by destroy
ing bacilli and by diSsolving dead tissues
within which the micro organisms might
otherwise lurk, multiply and carry on
their baneful activities BY thus cleans
ing wound and graduating microbial
flora the hyposulphite leaves nature free
to carry on her work of repair and
healing.
1t is not necessary to recount here the
astonishing things accomplished at Com
piegne. By his curtain fire Of chemistry
and the unhesitating use of the knife in
laying open hurt so that the antiseptic
might reach every germ infested area, DR..
Carrel was able to rout out his intrencbed

Potatoes fer Patriotism.

BY eating potatoes instead of wheat
the people OF the United States can
help win the war. We have not
enough wheat for the Allies and our
selves. We have an abundance OF po-
tatoes. Wheat flour Is concentrated
food and therefore good for shipping;
potatoes are bulky and are conse.
quently not suited for limited shipping
space, nor are the Allies 80 short OF
potatoes as OF wheat. Next TO cereals,
potatoes have been In this country
the mainstay OF starchy food, which
supplies energy.
The more potatoes we eat. the less
wheat we need. A medium.sized po-
tato, weighing about az ounces. sup
plies about as much starch as two
small slices OF wheat bread onehalf
inch thick. In other respects also,
the potato measures up well with
wheat bread and even has the adyant-
age over It In supplying certain salts
which the body needs to counteract
the acidity resulting from the use OF
such foods as cereals, meat and eggs.
BY exercising her ingenuity the house
wife can prepare potatoes in many
different attractive ways, thus increas-
ing their proportion in the family diet
and conserving wheat and other sta
pies needed for shipment abroad An
important use of potatoes. also, is In
the mixing OF breads. In which mash
ed potatoes up to fully ten per cent
may be used without detracting from
its appearance or taste; in fact, many
persons hold that potatoes properly
mixed in bread. improves both appear
ance and flavor.
