LET'S AFTER THE FLY.
News and Observer.

News and Observer.
There's solid reason in the old
adagp, a stitch in time saves
nine, and there is argument for
the reason that a fly at this time
makes nine, and many times
nine. A fyIpss summer is n boon
to be desired outside Of the fact
that the fly is conceded to lie the
great disease spreader whom we
invite freely into our homes and
to our tables. !.
That the house fly ia taken Sc
riou>ly nowadays is because of
the advance in knowledge OF
health. Time was when all t h Q
thought of the fly was that he
was a pesky intruder, who insis.
ted on holding q skating carni-
val on the bald pate, who drug.
ged his legs through the butter,
took q bath in themilk pitcher,
and ended his days in the mos

looked upon as q harmless IN.
sect nuisance even when 1T was
necessary to swat him many
times for his insistent attempts
to rub his ieet on his nose.
1t is pretty we'll understood
now that flies arc something
more than a mere pest, that in
reality they are carriers OF and
breeders Of disease, and that it is
imperative duty tn fight them
~ith a never:ceasiug vigilance.
The problem is how to do th i 8
most effectively, and to the solv-
ing OF this problem the best san.
itary thought of the country is
being directed. In many cities
the anti-6y campaign goes ON
vigorously as summer and fly
time approaches, In these there
there is dillig.nt search for fly
centers anil the work is then TO
put these places in such condi-
ton that the health OF thecommu
nifty willnot be put iu ipopar.
dy.
The ordinary house fly is the
conveyor OF typhoid fever recog-
nizpd 80 by the medical profes
sion. But not alone does he scat.
ter typhoid in his wake, but he is
distributing medium for the tu-
bercnlosiS germs, for malaria and
for various intestinal diseases.
He is an active agent, and he
has no favorites. He makes him
self at home in the palaces Of the
great and the cottages of h 6
humble. He fits where he Wi and
in his wake there is a path of dis
ease. The campaign against binl
and h;s tribe IS o campaign Tor
health. and to he successful it
must be a vigorous campaign.
The fly delights in filth. There.
fore the campaign against him is
a campaign Of cleanliness. That
is why cleanup day" should
come early in every city and ev.
cry city and in every home. By
nature the fly is a '::muck raker''
and if muck is not to be found
then the fy takes his farewell. 1t
Is the call of self-preservation to
end the activity of the fly, and iu
the campaign there is needed not
alone the vigilance paid health
officers. but also the active co.
operation of every householder
( and ofeveryIstore keeper and oi
everyone who finds that flies are
making a rendezvous of his place.
The food centers OF a city are
usually the headquarters of the
Z fly. In these places there can be
effective work done for his anni-
hilation and the public holds the
key to the situation. Fit is an

TO Coru Club B0yS.

The Democrat is in receipt Of
the following letter from Mr.. J.
M. Gray, assistant director OF
the North Carolina Department
OF Agriculture, that should be
read by all Watauga boys inter.
ested:
MANY of the boys OF your
county have joined the corn con.
test conducted by Mr.. Schaub,
and have neglected to send in
their application for member
ship in the State Corn Club con-
test.
"These two contests are entire
Iy separate. But the rules OF each
are such that the boys can be-
long to both and compete for
the prizes offered, with the same
acre of corn. provided they have
filled out and returned to each
Office their application for men,
bership. And unless a boy has
signed and returned to Mr. Il. B.
Parker one of these application
blanks be cannot compete for the
prlzps offered by the State De-
partment of Agriculture. These
application blanks, toget herwith
a leaflet OF rules governing the
contest, can he obtained BY wri-
ting 10 Mr.. I. B. Parker, Raleigh
\. c., or from your county Su-
perintendent OF Public Instruc-
tiOns.
81 hope that you will urge ev-
cry boy, who has not yet done
80, to procure one ofthese blanks
fill it out and return to Mr.. Par
ker. By doing this the boy will
be competing for five more pri-
ses with the same acre OF corn,
and thereby greatly increase his
chance oil winning q prize"

This afternoon the bill providing
ior the moving OF the county seat
OF Lyon county from Dayton to Yer
ington passed the assembly, making
il a law in all but the signature OF

The removal of the county seat
stirrs up a considerable OF
discomfort Oh the part oil the people
living in the Northern section OF the
county. and they are now petition
ing for a division oil the county.
Naturally Ormsby. Lyon and Churc-

some pretty lively lobbying the next

In the meantime the Lyon delegation
is entitled to congratulations.

Editor of The Nirginian:
Slr?--When Senator Swansons term as 'GoVer-

with the state press generally, scattered some
nice bouquets at his feet lauded his admin

Mann fit him to fill the seat vacated
by the lamented Daniel, that paper Joined
with others in commencing the appon tment.
Other than these occasions. has there ever
been a time the Times Dispatch showed dis
position to support commend Swanson in any

time and again, seized made opportunities
either to snub to knock him? Now that a
preteNt--not an eXcuSe--has arisen whereby that
paper may pursue the policy il has always puf-
sued toward MIR. swanson. why should its action
occasion srprtse on the part of some and bring
such JOY to the hearts of the supporters OF Mr.
Glass?
Again, why should editorial in a paper
whose political influence has long since been
practically dead cause uneasiness the part
OF Swanson,s supporters or bring comfort to the
Glass camp? Politically. when has the Times Dis
