How to Limit Flies on the Farm
with Sulphate of Iron.

By Supt. o. =. Gregg, Lynd, Mimi
We were greatly pleased last year
with an experiment that we made
in using sulphate of iron in connection
with the stables at our barn. Every
morning as we cleaned out the horse
stables the manure was placed in pile,
as is customary, and we Immediately
scattered over that mornings addition
about one quart of sulphate of iron.
Now, this sulphate would at once
change the color of the manure to al
most black. The effect of this sulphate
on the manure heap was such that few
flies were bred in what is known to be
the great breeding place for flies upon
the farm. Our rule is to take the
manure from the stables as fast as
made, so that as frequently as we can
we take this manure from the heap
and spread it upon our fields. On ac-
count of the rush of work we are some-
times compelled to leave this heap for
quite period. and long enough for the
fly pest to breed and multiply if not
checked by the use of sulphate of iron.
We have used this sulphate long
enough to be satisfied that the claims
which the American Steel & Wire Co.
make are warranted by good experience.

Miss Hall has been the happy recip-

seems to care for colder weather just
to test the heating plant.

A PRAYER.

GRANT me but courage, Lordi
~ ask not that thou smooth the ap.
pointed path;
ask not any Joys the years afford.
ask not even thy averted wrath.
+ EFT me but learn to smile
- Let me face lightly any blow thst
falls;
Bear .bravsly with my bondage Ill the
while
And hug my freedom with,a prison
walls.
THUS whom The end draws near
L With lifted head lst mo the Dotioa
Quaa, 3. 5iH
And % ~ one who never learned to fear
Pass on 70 noot thy judgment with Q
laugh
