anthrax" declares General Blue.
ANY brushes found in the market
which do not bear the name or the
trade mark of the manufacturer should
be regarded with suspicion and should
be returned to the source from when
they were secured or should be dlsin-
fected.
For sterilization of brushes the fol-
lowing procedure is believed to be Ell
fective: <
1.-THE brush should be soaked for
four hours in 10 per cent solution
Of formalin (by formalin is meant a
40 per cent solution of formaidehyde)
The solution should be kept at tenn
perature of 10 degrees and the
brush so agitated as to bring the So
luton into contact with all hair or
bristles."
