The best practical antiseptic for sanitary purposes is cleanliness; the best disinfectants are heat, bichloride of mercury, sulphate of iron, chloride of zinc, sulphurous acid, chlorine, sunlight, and pure air, and, for yellow fever, cold.

Afterward wash the wagon with the acid bichloride.

There is, however, one of the bichloride of mercury processes, published some years ago, which I modified so as to give the most satisfactory results.

If this fails, give one-twelfth of a grain of bichloride of mercury thrice daily.

Be careful of the bichloride of mercury, because it is a poison.
