SHORT HEALTH TALKS.
No. 9.-Fighting the Mosquito.

The fly and the mosquito have
conflicting claims as the most OBJ
noXious pest OF the summer. While
the former may claim 70 be a great
er menace 20 health in that he car
ries the germs OF more diseases.
the latter has his special claims.
The mosquito Is very difncult 20 get
out Of the house when once he en-
ters; he can cause a maximum of
an 1yance and inconvenience during
the hight hours; and he IS the agent
for spreading malaria. which an
nually aflicts thousands in the State.
There are some hundreds of forms
OF mosquitoes. Some OF them are
perfectly harmless so far as carrying
disease is concerned. Other forms.
not less unsuspiciOus looking. can
spread malaria broadcast. The lay
man can scarcely detect the anophe-
les, or malaria mosquito, from the
culeX, or harmless mosquito.
The only sure method OF Kidding
any home of mosquitoes Is to prevent
their breeding. Inasmuch as they
seldom fly more than a few hundred
feet from their breeding place. they
can readily be killed of by destroy
ing all breeding places. Mosquitoes
never hatch except in standing wa
ter hence IL all standing water Is
drained on. they will be killed.
IL sometimes happens that the
breeding places OF mosquitoes cannot
be altogether removed. In such a
case. the pest-ridden man has an
other resource, not less eficacious
II he will take a watering pot. fiji il
with kerosene oil and pour the con-
tents lightly over the standing wa
ter, he can prevent the breathing Of
young mosquitoes and thereby kin

surface OF a small pond.
IL must be remembered that run-
ming water is not a breeding place
for mosquitoes and that they cannot
match until they have been in water
Tor at least ten days. But il is e.
qually true that they can hatch and
breed by thousands in a very small
amount of water. They may hatch

they can hatch just as well and AL

MANY OTHERS FAVOR IT.

Many of the Negro Editors and
Authors favor the adoption Of the
term Negro as a racial designation.
The term Afro-American would be
more pleasing 20 those who object
to the name OF Negro, but the term
Afro-American is a long one and not
so handy in writing as the term Ne
gro.
IL Is against the black skin, not
the racial term that the white man
holds his prejudice and our friend
therefore. need not fear that the
term Negro Will in any way retard
the progress of the black people.

TwD LEADING AUTHORITIES.

In the early part Of 1906. Or.
Bowen OF Atlanta University and the
brilliant Mr.. T. Thomas Fortune a
leading writer Of the Negro race,
had a debate on this same question.
DR. Bowen favored the term Negro.
while Mr.. Fortune preferred the term
Atro-American. Our friend, Mr.
Bali is again mistaken when he SAYS
that the name of Negro is all that is
wanted 10 turn the race down. Mr.
Booker T. Washington never uses
any other term. yet his success in
getting money 20 carry on his great
educational work is a wonder to
many Anglo-Saxons as well as the
Negro people
