Disinfectants Recommendod. “The most common disinfectants are car- bolic acid and chloride of lime, &ud the latter is no doubt the most economical and effective for domestio purposes, The carbolic acid meroly disguises a bad smell by its own odor, but iu cases of animal matter it {s very use- ful ns it destroys animal matter. Chioride of Jime is vers inexpensive and will answer most purposes. Chiorine, bromine and per- manganate of potaseium Are probably more energetio. Bichloride of mercury. sul- phate of iron, chloride of 7100, sulphuric acid and sunlight und air are otber usetul disinfectants Plutt's ohloride is & special proparation which can be obtained ai any drne store. ‘The use of burning sulpbur was once oowr- mon but has boen discarded for simplor and disagroesable methods. ‘A liberal sprinkiing of the suvstance is the best wor to use a disinfectant.
