THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MAItSIIFIELD, OREGON, SUNDAY, MAY 5, 1007.
.GODS MAKES A
FINE SHOWING
No Cases of Contagious Disease
During Month of February and
March.
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

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.
The state board calls attention to
the fact that there are probably a
good 'many cases of contagious
diseases which have not been report
ed by local county or city health of
ficers, and Insists that these reports
be made promptly. The diseases to
be reported are all the ordinary con
tagious diseases, as smallpax, diph
theria, scarlet fever, measles, typhoid
fever, chicken pox whooping cough
and tuberculosis, and any unuaual
disease such as cerebro-spinal menin
gitis, cholera, plague and typhus
fever. During February throughout
the state there were reported 95
cases, and during March 144 cases.

"Why don't you newspaper men
give the city officials a dig for letting
all this nice weather go by without
'getting busy on tho contemplated
street work," said a man who takes
an Interest in the city affairs.
When the mayor was asked about
the-cause for the delay he said, that
the city was in no shape to commence
this work until it had secured the
services of an experienced city en
gineer. "I am now in communication with
two or three engineers that have had
a great deal of experience in municip
al work and feel sure that any one
of them will prove a valuable ad
junct to the city force," said Mayor
Straw. "They are well posted on
sewer work also street Improvement
and as the city has a great deal of
this work to do within the next few
years I feel that such a man should
be secured."
The work on the contemplated
street improvements and sewer sys
tem will commence just as soon as
the new city engineer is secured.

It will be necessary for someone to
fill the place.
