Cholera Preventives
CIRCULAR FROM THE AlttRICAN PUBLIC HEALTH
ASSOCIATION—WHAT SHOULD BE DONE TO
PREVENT 7IIE SPREAD OF THE
DISEASE.
In view of tbe appearance and progress of
cholera in the Sonth. and its by no means im
probable advance into other parts of the conn-
try, the American Public Health Association
have prepared a circular concerning the means
of combating the dread destroyer and have is
sued it for publication. The following are the
principal points in this timely and useful doc-
gJLSTUKT CLZAN8ISO.
The local conditions that generally pro
mote the outbreaks and propagation of chole
ra are:
1. Neglected privies.
2. Filth-sodden grounds.
3. Foul cellars and filthy or badly-drained
surroundings of dwellings.
4. Foul and obstructed boose drains
5. Decaying and putrescent materials,
whether animal or vegetable.
6. Dnvsntilated.demp and uncleansed dwell-
The Crops.
mgs and apartments.
'. DeSe localizing <
be promptly and 1
; causes of cholera should
very thoroughly removed
beiore a case of the disease appears in tbe
town or district, and if any sources of putres
cence or of excessive moisture remain these
should be oontrolled by the proper cleansing,
drying and disinfection.
orongh scavenging and surface drainage,
with the application at the same time of
qnick lime and coal tar or crude carbolic acid;
whitewashing with fresh quick lime; the
cleansing and thorough drying and ventila
tion of cellars, basements, chambers and
closets, and daily care to cleanse, flush, ven
tilate and purify the sources of defilement
about all inbabitei
| abited premises, will afford al
most complete protection if suitable care is
taken of personal health.
Tbe security of personal health requires
pure drinking water, fresh and substantial
food, temperance and the needed rest and
tlathing of tbe body.
DISINFECTION AND DISINFECTANTS.
The principles relating to disinfection as a
means of destroying the propagating or in
fections c&nse of cholera and arresting putre
faction are readily understood, and may be so
explained to any family that the household
may insure its own immunity against the
introdnction and spread of the disease. For
popular nse we append a brief statement of
these principles at the end of this circular,
and we respectfully recommend that the state
ment and tbe following schedule ot rules and
methods be given to tbe press and to all
principals of scbcols, superintendents of
(daces of public resort, rail toad depute, fer
ries. hotels and public institutions, and to the
mast, rs of ships and steamboats, and tbe
conductors of passenger trains, tbronghout
this continent, believing, as wc do, that by
the timely and continued application ot these
measures the prevalence ot cholera tnay be
prevented. Bat let tbe fact be remembered
that there can be substitutes for thorough
cleansing and fresh air.
BULKS AND METHODS OF DISINFECTION.
For Privies, Water Closets, Drains and Seio-
trs.—Fight or ten pounds of sulphate of iron
(copperas) dissolved in five or six gallons of
water, with half a pint of erode carbolic acid
added to the solution and briskly stirred,
makes tbe cheapest and best disinfecting fluid
lor common nse. It can be procured in every
town and by any family--aud if the carbolic
acid is not at bund, the solution of copperas
may be used without it.
To prevent privies and water closets from
becoming infected or offensive, poor a pint of
this strong solution into eveiy water closet
pan or privy seat once or twice a day.
To disinfect masses of filth, privy vaults,
sewers and drains, gradually pour in this so
lution until it reaches and disinfects all tbe
lonl material.
For tbs chamber vessels nsed by the sick,
and for the disinfection of ground upon which
any excremental matter has been cast away,
use the solution of copperas and carbolic
acid; and for disinfecting extensive masses or
surfaces of putrescent materials, and for
drains, sewers and ditches, this disinfecting
fluid may be used, or the “dead oil” (“ heavy
oil”) of coal-tar or coal-tar itself. Coal-tar
may be used as a paint npon tbe walls of cel
lars, stables and open drains.
Other disinfectants, such as the solutions
of sesqnichloride of iron or chloride of zinc,
are effectual in privies and drains, and npon
font surfaces and offensive materials.
Qnicklime is useful as an absorbent and
dtyer, npon foal walls and in damp places,
and whitewashing with it sbonld be practised
in common tenements, factories, basements,
closets and garrets.
To disinfect the clothing or bedding delltd
in any manner by excremental matters from
the sic? throw them into a solution made as
follows;
One ponnd of sulphate of zinc to six or
eight gallons of water, to which add two or
three ounces of pare and strong carbolic
acid—such articles to remain therein at least
half an hoar; then immediately place them
in boiling water, and continue boiling. If
tbe acid is not at band, then nse the somtion
of zinc in water. The same disinfecting so
lution is excellent for bed pans and chamber
vessels, and for soiled floors or defiled sur
faces.
Apartments, bedding and upholstery that
have been nsed by the sick with cholera or
diarrhoea should be thoroughly cleansed and
disinfected.
PRINCIPLES AND DUTIES TO BE OBSEBTED.
1. That tba thorough cleanliness, domestic
and civic, and an abundant supply of pnre
water are essential means of preventing chole
ra in any bonsebold when the disease is near.
2. That general cleansing, scavenging and
disinfection should be attended to in every
city and town before tbe cholera makes its
appearance; and that wherever it does ap
pear, that house and the exposed premises
should be kept constantly disinfected?
3. That, whatever differences of opinion
there may be respecting the epidemic phe
nomena of different periods, tbe paramount
importance of thorough cleanliness and dis
infection, is to be kept in mind; and that, in
tbe words of tbe Chief Medical Officer of
Great Britain, “It appears to be ebarasteris
tic of cholera, not only of tbe disease in its
developed and alarming form, but equally of
tbe slightest diarrhoea which the epidemic
can prodace, that all matters which the pa
tient discharges from his stomach and bowels
are infective; that the patient’s power of in
fecting other persons is represented almost or
quite exclusively by those discharges; that
they areWcoimperatively non-infective at
the moment they are discharg
ed, bnt afterwards, when undergoing de
composition, acquire their maximum infec
tive power; and that if they be cast away
without previous disinfection, they impart
their own infective quality to the excremental
matters with which they mingle in filth-
sodden earth, or in depositories and condnits
of filth, and to the effluvia which those ex
cremental matters evolve; that if the infective
material, by leakage or soakage from drains
or cesspools or otherwise, gets aceeaa, erven
in the smallest quantity, directly or throngh
soil, to wells or other sources of drinking
water, it can infect, in the most dangerous
manner, very large volumes of the water;
that the infective influence of tbe choleraic
discharges attaches to whatever bedding,
clothing and like things have been imbued
with them, and renders these things, if not
fiteiafected, capable o* spreading the die
ease.”
4. Cleansing and parity, skitlfal disinfec
tion, temperate habits, and wholesome diet,
with pnre water and fresh air, are the trusted
and sure means of health and security in all
places and for all classes of people when ex
posed to the causes of cholera. Tbe watch
word against this destructive enemy should
be—Remove the local causes that favor the
propagation of cholera, and wherever it
appears let its germs be quickly stamped ont
•hy pbwerfal disinfection and special cleans-

The Memphis Appeal lucubrates on the
growing cotton crop as follows:
The news that reaches ns from ail the
States in regard to the growing crops, is any
thing bnt encouraging. Cotton has been es
pecially unfortunate. In North Mississippi,
indeed, we might say throughout the State,
newspapers and private correspondents agree
that the caterpillar is marching in larger
numbers than ever and that the de
struction is greater than has ever before
been known. In Louisiana, so great has
been the destruction by wet weather, that it
is feared impossible to counteract its influ
ence before the pest, which is a usual result of
it (the army worm), makes its appearance
and kills what remains of a chance for a crop.
In tbe western part of this State, the contin
ued rains and prevalence of an nnosually hu
mid atmosphere are quickening the growth cf
tbe grass, and although planters are working
diligently to check it, it is feared that it is al
ready too far ahead, and may succeed in
checking the growing plant
From Georgia there comes tbe same com
plaint of grassy cotton, caterpillar, aDd possi
bility of army worm; yet the farmers are not
cast down, bat are busy as beavers in their
efforts to chop ont tbe one and kill the other.
In Florida the same cause for the earns com
plaints exist, and the apprehensions of plant
ers are fully aroused, though the hope is in
dulged that with such hot, dry weather as we
in Memphis have been praying for, the
threatened damage may be escaped. Every
where throughout Alabama the cry goes up,
“The caterpillar! The caterpillar!" And
there seems to be no help for it. Rains have
been almost incessant, planters are indulging
in the most gloomy forebodings, and tbe
newspapers OVe prognosticating dire calami
ties in case of failure, since, as the Eafaala
Times has it, “there are no oats, no corn, no
bacon; and all our money is in a little weed
that will not blossom in three weeks.”
In Texas also, whence some time ago we
had reason to expect better things, the story
of caterpillar, rain, and possibly army worms,
comes with augmented force, and tho general
feeling is that the cotton crop will be short.
Tbe Sonth Carolina papers, too, are filled
with gloomy acconnts, and they are unani
mously of tbe opinion that the crop will be
short, the wet weather prevailing there, as ev
erywhere along the cotton belt In Louisiana
the sugar cane is overrun with grass, and no
reasonable hope can be entertained of a satis
factory product. Anent all this, and as an an- i
tidote, we have encouraging accounts of tbe i
wheat crop in Texas, Tennessee, Virginia and
Alabama, and, generally, corn is doing very
well. From this it will be seen that any ar- {
rangements of spinners or buyers for a big
cotton crop are in a fair way to be frustrated, j
and that those who deal in “ futures ” would [
do well to discount largely the swelling fig- j
ures of the “bulls.”
