Wants Rural Mail Boxes Painted
White.

The postoffice department at
Washington has sent letters to all
postmasters requesting that they
urge the patrons of the rural mail
routes from their Office to paint their
mail boxes and the posts white. The
letter is as follows:
Washington, d. c., Mar. 81, 1910
To the Postmaster:-It is the de-
sire OF the department that you earn
estly request patrons of rural deliv-
cry out of your Office to paint their
boxes and the posts to which they
are attached pure white color. This
course, if pursued, will not only re-
suit in benefit to the patron in serv-
ing to protect his box and post from
damage by the weather, but will
give all boxes uniform color and
serve to fix their identity in all parts
OF the country as United States mail
boxes, and will give them a much
heater and sightlier appearance than
they now possess. 1t is also desired
that patrons be induced to imprint
their names and box numbers on
boxes in black block letters about
two inches high.
1t is also desired that you endeav-
or to induce road officials to paint
upon the posts of boxes which are To-
Gated (but not attach signs thereto)
the names of the towns or villages
to which the crossroads lead, with
an Indicator showing the direction.
Posts to which boxes should be at
tached shall be set in an easily ac-
cessible position at the side of the
road and boxes securely fastened to
projecting arm of wood, or to a
bracket of band iron about three
sixteenths of an inch thick, or, if
preferred an automatic extension
arm may be used.

The radiator, which is of four-gal-
Ions capacity, is located to the right
of the engine, looking forward, and
the water is forced by a gear-driven
pump through the packeting of the
cylinders.
This is the largest engine that Cur
tiss has yet built, and marks his dis.
carding of the air-cOoled type for the
water-cooling system.
|. Under the framework to which the
front wheel is attached Curtiss, be-
fore his flight, affixed silk air-bag
whose top was a piece of finely select
ed spruce reinforced Ly strip OF rub
Der silk to make that side of the bag
alright. This was intended to have
the effect of hydroplane in the event
that Curtiss was compelled to come
down on the water at any time during
his flight.
New York City.-The aeroplane
would not endanger New York in the
event of war, in the opinion of Brig
adier-General Walter Howe, COM
handing the Department of the East,
with headquarters on Governors ISL
and. General Howe pointed out that
there is no telling what the aeroplane
of the future might do, and wished it
understood that his opinion applied
to the aeroplane as it is. High in the
air and travelling at a great speed,
General Howe said the aviator would
find his task very hard one if he at
tempted to drop explosives on vessels
or forts. If he descended to an alti-
tude where he could drop his explo-
sives with any degree of accuracy, the
land forces would wreck his machine
with shrapnel. General Howe re-
sponded to a question put by re-
porter, the question being what, in
his opinion, was the military lesson
to be drawn from the Curtiss flight
from Albany.
I'm my opinion" General Howe
said, "the only military lesson is that
there will come time when the aero
plane will be of great value as an
agent of warfare. This is shown by
the fact that two years ago none of
us Delleved That the development OF
the aeroplane on a scale such as was
shown by the Curtiss fight was posi-
BILE. When we remember this we can
only conjecture how great will be the
progress in the development the next
few years will bring.
At the present time the aviator in
an aeroplane may be able to carry dy-
Mantle or other high explosive, but,
owing to the height at which he
would fly, do not think his presence
would endanger to any appreciable
extent vessels or Notifications, or
even cities and towns, above which he
flew. If he flew high he would prob
ably have hard time hitting us,
while if he came low we would have
very little trouble in getting his
range"
General Howe expressed the opin-
ion that the Government would not
engage extensively in the develop
ment of the aeroplane, but would
continue as in the past, to leave that
largely in the hands of individuals.

Presence of Fly Means Disease.

The following by DR.. W. S. Leath-
ers, field agent and hygienic spec
ialist of the Mississippi State Board
of Health, will command attention
and interest:
''The common housefly is the most
dangerous enemy of mankind. This
pestiferous creature is especially
prevalent during the warm season Of
the year. He begins his existence as
a tiny, wriggling worm in any pile
of filth. Such as manure, rubbish and
garbage of all kinds. The presence
of the fly means disease and insan-
itary conditions. Where there is no
filth there are no flies. Keep the
home surroundings clean.
His habit OF living and crawling
make him one of the four great
agents in the spread of disease. He
is the chief cause in the transmission
of typhoid fever, hence he has come
to be called the typhoid fly All in
testinal diseases, such as cholera in
fantum, which kills children by the
thousand, are more frequent when
ever and wherever flies are most
aboundant 1t is this little pest and
not the summers heat which is the
active agent in the spread of these
diseases. Keep the flies off the lips
and face of the helpless babe.
"The spongy feet and hairy body
of the fly make it possible for him
to carry thousands of germs-so he
is found transmitting not only the
germs of typhoid fever, but what is
worse, the germs of consumption
from the sputum of the sidewalk or
cuspidor to the food we eat.
Thus the presence of the fly is
not only nuisance, but he may
spread disease wherever he goes.
His touch may be deathly. His pres
ence should not be tolerated. The
fly must be exterminated.
