APPENDIX N (2).
Forty-nine casks of Sanitas Powder, making up into
3,430 packets, have been distributed from the Public
Health Department.
One thousand and forty pint bottles of Sanitas Fluid,
and six hundred and eight pint tins of Izal Fluid have also
been distributed. These figures show an increase over the
previous year, and this is without doubt due to persons
notified and advised under the provisions of the Public
Health (Tuberculosis) Regulations, 1912, under which all
forms of Tuberculosis are now notifiable, taking advantage
of the facilities provided for them.
Half-a-ton of Sulphur Candles have been used in the
disinfection of rooms throughout the year. One gallon of
Formaldehyde Solution (40 per cent.) has been used in
spraying the walls of rooms, and three pounds of Formalin
Tablets have been used for fumigating articles in the
Formalin Chamber.
Ten gallons of Creocide have also been used for disinfecting
purposes.
