Iodine in the Water.

DR.. George w. Goler. famous health
officer Of Rochester, N. Y, was the
first health authority to propose and
put into effect the iodization Of a pub.
lie water supply for the prevention OF
simple goiter. The iodiZatiOn of the
municipal water was begun In Roches-
ter in 1923 and has been regularly
done twice year 81 ce then. At
present the Rochester health leader
makes Fl applications Of sodium iodide
twice a year. each Of 1876 pounds OF
sodium iodide. in May-June and again
in October November. In the first
week the sodium iodide Is added daily.
thereafter every other day until FL
applications have been made. Thus a
concentration of il to % parts OF
iodine per billion is obtained in the
water. and this Is even for all parts
Of the city. Estimating from the pop
ulation of Rochester and the quantity
Of water the average person drinks.
this would give each person slightly
over milligrams of iodine in the
course Of a year. Authorities agree
that this quantity of iodine Is we'll
within the normal or natural iodine
ration that Is essential for health. not
to mention the prevention of goiter.
When they started iodization of the
Rochester water supply there were
3.S44 children in the city with goiter.

the opinion Of DR.. c. H. Mayo. there
Is no type of golfer which would be
injured by the small amount Of iodine
obtained from the water so iodized,
and no risk whatever in such cases
notwithstanding the fancied effect
on the taste Of the water, this iodiza-
ton OF drinking water positively does
not alter the taste. People often
imagine they taste iodine In drinking
water when or where no iodine Is ever
used.
OF course, ONLY q small proportion
of the public water supply Is used for
drinking. All Of the water used for
bathing. laundry. sprinkling lawns or
gardens is wasted. or rather the iodine
in it Is wasted. but only for human
welfare. The iodine in this water
eventually serves a good purpose in
plant and animal economy. Even the
portion that goes into the sewer even.

of flesh-color crepe de chine and the
same amount of white silk for the
lining. OF course, one could be made
without a lining. and a buttonhole
stitch would make pretty finish
