The gradual advance in the price of

In consid erable quantities creosote,

A Chicago health physician short
time ago issued bulletin in which
he warned the people of the city
against the danger of the spread Of
scarlet and typhoid fever, diphtheria,
tuberculosis and other contagious dis
eases by means Of the common house
fly. He recommends as an effective
method of exterminating this omni-
present pest a plan discovered by DR..
.Delamare, a French army surgeon,
who has found that If one part Of
formol (also known as formalin or
formaldehyde) is mixed with nine parts
of water and put on plates which are
to be set wherever the flies are likely
to congregate they can easily be ex-
terminated. The insects seem to be
attracted by the mixture as If it were
sugar. Even the emanations of the
mixture are deadly to them. In one
large room in which the doctor tried
this method the number of flies killed
averaged 4, 900 a day.
Following a protracted dry spell
which has been characterized quite
generally the country over with nu-
merous forest fires and parched pas
lures, there viii be a tendency 70 stuff

A number of town boys we know
have this year spent the major part Of
their summer vacation working on
nearby farms and have as result of
their industry earned from $40 to $40
apiece In addition to this financial
gain they have acquired knowledge
Of different kinds of farm work which
is both practical and useful and will
come in handy at some future time.
When these same boys attended the
county or state fair they had the sat-
isfaction of knowing that they had
earned a vacation as well as that the
money they spent was their own.
Having spent the summer thus, these
boys are in mood to take up their
school work with interest and zest and
will get much more good out of 1t.

Roadside weeds are not only an eye
sore to the passerby, but If left uncut
through the winter are likely to prove
a prolific source of drifts and chucky
roads. If the weeds have not been cut
between July 10 and Aug Is, as Is re-
quired by law in a number of states,
they should at least be cut for the
above reason before snow flies.

The notion Is pretty well outgrown
that a frost works any real good to
field of immature corn in the matter
Of helping to ripen it. A heavy or
killing frost means death to the leaves
and hence death to the stalks. Fol
lowing this, the juices in the stalk
turn sour and thus render little or no
assistance to the ears in the CONVEX
sion of the starch which they contain.

Every ear of corn intended for next
years seed should be gathered and
hung in a well ventilated place to dry
by Oct Is. If you are dilatory in this
matter and wait until Nov. 20 before
attending to this most important bust
ness, you needn't lay it off on the Lord
next spring if the seed you have saved
doesn't sgerminate. Good horse sense
and Providence go hand in hand in a
good many instances, but in none more
than in the matter Of a selecting and
saving of seed corn.

Of son or daughter at heart will take
pains to see that there is as little in
terruption as possible in the school
work at the beginning Of the year.
While keeping the pupil from school on
