ton measures are to be urged by
which not only communities but
whole states will be enabled to
rid themselves of these deadly
enemies of mankind.
In order to attain this end it Is
necessary merely to adopt few
simple and well understood
methods, the application of which
may be intrusted to local boards
of health. Where the mosquito
is concerned, however, it is deem
ed advisable that there should be
a general control by the state,
because of the fact that certain
species of these tuneful'marauders
are migratory and liable to appear
suddenly in mulhtudinons swarms
in places far from their breeding
areas, giving profound discour-
agement to local efforts toward
determination.
The house fly is strictly local;
it never goes far from the place
where it was Matched. Further
more, practically all house flies
are bred in stables. Hence it is a
simple matter to eXtermInate
them absolutely.
There is no doubt that house
flies and mosquitoes transmit
germs and that some of them find
their way into food and drink.
causing sickness. The extent of
infection from this source cannot
be exactly known. but the safest
way is to keep them out by the
use of screen doors and window
screens.-The State.
