DEATH RATE IS LOW Comparison With Other Parts of the State Is Highly Favorable and Flattering. Coos county makes a fine showing, as being a healthful place, In the sta tistics Issued by the state board of health for February and March. During tho former month there was one death from tuberculosis and one also in March, but aside from these there were no cantagious diseases re ported, nor deaths from contagious diseases. Other vital statistics for this county are as follows: Deaths In' February, 9; in March, 15. Dirths In February, 15; in March, 27. Marriages In February, 7; in March, 11. In tho state there were during March 544 births, 3G7 deaths and 207 marriages. Counties having no deaths, births or marriages during the month were Gilliam, Klamath and Malheur. At least none were re ported in these counties. Use of Disinfectant. The board calls attention to the fact that formaldehyde gas is now used almost exclusively as an aerial disinfectant, and that tho machines are expensive and consequently out of the reach of some of tho smaller communities. Descriptions of some of the appar atus designed are given in the bulle tin, and it is stated that instead of this apparatus there can be used an, ordinary milk pail, wrapped in as bestos, or layers of blanket, or set in a tightly fitting wooden bucket or barrel in order to retain the heat. The maximum amounts that are to be used In such a path due to the J&fcn M 3JBHSE2Z30KSdJKESSZ2E I furious bubbling, are as follows: 10 to 12 quart pall, 16 ounces of for malin and 6 ounces of permangan ate; for 14 quart pall, 24 ounces of formalin and 13 ounces of perman ganate. In all cases the formalin must bepoured on the permanganate, and not the latter on the formalin. As gas is rapidly evolved in largo quantities, there must be rapid exit from the room. The room should be closed at least six hours. This makes an "effective disinfection in a room where there has been a case of con tagious disease. Reporting Cnscs.
