~TZ»r. August -■». ">•-" affOW *ATB* CAUSE 1 " OF HAKVEST MALADIES •rhloride of I*- ■ Preventive Remedy, Says State College Sanitation Expert By H. _. Phelps, XV. S. ('. During the summer months large numbers of men, women and chil dren are engaged ■in harvesting, Threshing and picking fruit, often be i nx compelled to live in tents, bunk houses and other temporary and nortable homes placed near their work and frequently moved from olace to place. Under these circum stances the sanitary conditions sur rounding them are frequently far from good, and many cases of ty phoid fever and other intestinal troubles are the direct result of such unsanitary conditions. It is well es tablished that most cases of typhoid fever and the less serious but un pleasant summer intestinal troubles are caused by drinking impure water. It has frequently seemed difficult 0 r impossible to provide harvest workers with a sufficient supply of pure drinking water, because of the temporary and scattered nature of their work and the expense that has seemed to be involved. A certain amount of typhoid and intestinal dis ease has often been looked upon as an inevitable accompaniment of such kinds of work. This has often been true of those who realized that such diseases were transmitted by Impure water, and generally by those who were ignorant of this fact. It is, however, possible to provide a supply of pure water for harvest workers, and to greatly reduce the amount of disease to which they are subject. The destruction of all dan gerous bacteria which may be in tin water can be easily and efficiently accomplished by the use of chloride of lime. Chloride of lime, or bleach ing powder, can be Obtained at al most any grocery store, and the amount required is so small as to make the cost negligible. It should be used in the following manner: One tablespoonful of the chloride of lime is dissolved in 10 quarts "i water. This quantity is sufficient to treat 1000 gallons of water, and the operation is carried out by simply pouring the clear solution Into the water to be treated and stirring thoroughly. This solution is a pow erful germicide and its action is very rapid lo minutes or so being all the time required to carry out the purification. One quart, of this so lution is sufficient to treat effective ly a tank of 100 gallons of water, and one pint of it stirred into a 50 --gallon barrel full of water will de stroy any dangerous .germ and him. the water safe for drinking purposes. One is cautioned against using too much of the chemical, not be cause it is dangerous at till, but be cause an undesirable odor or taste may be imparted to the water where too large amounts are used. The strength of solution Indicated above, used in the manner described,, will be found perfectly satisfactory. The qualities of the water will in no wise be impaired and no undesirable con ditions will arise from its use. On the other hand, dangerous water may be made safe and much sickness pre vented. The solution loses its strength if left standing open for any time, hut may be kept for several days if kept in a tightly stoppered bottle. If so kept, it becomes a very handy germi cide to use during the harvesting and threshing season. The water used about the cook house and for drink ing purposes in the field and about the threshing machine can be made safe and the amount of typhoid fever and other intestinal trouble made much less.
