Clean Up Your Yards.

Now is the time ~ clean up every
where, and in spi'e of everything dirt
will accumulate during the winter. 1t
gathers in cellars, in the back yards, in
the cutters aud IN .ae streets. The
winter has been favorable for the a.
cum ulation of dirt. One day it was
raining, another snowing, one day it
WAS freezing, another thawing, and
many days all together, between them
they have given the streets very re-
pulsive appearance this is apparent to
all who pass along and make use OF
their eyes.
These accu N ulations of filth and dirt
are not only repulsive to the eye, but
terribly offensive 10 the olfactories, and
from a sanitary point Of view, they
should concern not only the city au-
thorities and Board of Health, b1t
every individual householder within
the city limits. In the rear yards, how.
ever, are the places where the most
danger lies. The heaps of coal ashes
and garbage accumulated in them dc
not reach the public eye so much, and
there are many people just about care
less enough 70 not trouble themselves
about them as long as the passerby does
NOT see them TO talk about them. Such
yards should be scanned by the ex-
ecutive officers of the Board Of Health.
II they would take the trouble TO look
over the side or back yard fence, they
would ind many spot that when the
sun shines out with considerable
strength, will send forth a poisonous
etfiuvia which bids disease hasten ana
take posses sion.
While the weather remains moderate
ly cool, these &C cumulations OF foul
compounds do not make their presen ce
known by their noisome smell. But
milder weather is new to be looked for
Here we are brushing along away into
April. Warmer weather must be ex-
pected and with it danger from these
nuisances IS sure to arise. There should
be universal cleaning up all over the
city, by private citizens as well as by
public authorities. There is no time to

Sporadic cases have already touched

its prevalence in Europe last year, it
invariably showed the greatest ravages
in those quarters OF the city attacked
where the drainage was poorest and
filth greatest. Ifit comes here, We may
expect 10 See this condition OF affairs.
Now Is the time 10 take initiatory steps
TO keep away this danger. Every one
