 Mosquitoes.

In the recent report, Joseph H. Town send, Secretary of the State Board of Health, says:
 On account of the unusually heavy rainfall the past month mosquitoes Are likely 10 be more than ordinarily prev alent this summer, and 1t Is very es- sential that the people unite in an ef- fort to decrease the number of these pests.
 Mosquitoes cannot breed without water, and in order for them To breed in water, it must be permitted to stand for at least ten days. Wet grass, while 1t will attract mosquitoes, is not A breeding place. Therefore no possible spot, where water can accumulate should be overlooked.
 Mosquitoes seldom breed in large bo. dies of water they prefer small pools, rain water that has collected in tin cans, or buckets, rain barrels, broken bottles, cellars that have water stand ing in them, badly drained roofs, and leaders which permit water to collect in the sagging parts without running oil. \ single old bucket or tomato can with water standing in it, is capable of furnishing sufficient mosquitoes 10 make the neighborhood miserable. Al ter every rain storm, householders should spend few minutes in an in- spection of their premises 10 see that all possible receptacles or conditions that might permit water To collect are i'm mediately remoyed.n
