How TO XIII Flies.

To clear rooms of flies use carbolic
acid. heating shovel and pouring on
it twenty drops of the poison. The
vapor will kill the flies. Another
method: Burn pyrethrum powder in
the room. The flies will fall to the
floor stupetied and may be swept UP
and burned. The powder should he
moistened and nodded into cones. and
after drying each cone should be placed
upon dish and lighted at the top. 1t
will burn slowly. and the odor is not
disagreeable.
Flies pass the winter hidden Gin

regard for practical craftsmanship
He was protectionist in theory, and

TAKES FIRST PLACE
Iowa Is Greatest State In the Union As
Poultry Producer Shown by Census
FOWLS OF STATE WORTH MILLIONS
Statistics Of Last Count Shows Total
Larger Than Any Other state
And the Value 10 Fixed
Al Over $4,000, 900.

Des Moines.-lowa leads all othel
states of the union in the number Of
fowls and also in the value of them
according to the statistics OF the last
federal census.
The total mum Der of fowls Of Ill
kinds in Iowa in 1910 was 23,4S2, $50
as compared with 2OO43,343 in 1900
The value Of the 1910 supply Of fowl.
was $12,269,SS1, as compared with
. value of $685., 464 for the 1910 sup
ply of fowls.
An analysis Of these statistics
shows very remarkable advance in
the value Of Iowa fowls. While the
20,043,34S fowls In 1900 were worth
only $6,535,464 the 23,4s2, $50 fowls OF
1910 were worth nearly twice as
much, or the sum Of $12,269,ss1. In
other words, the increase in mum.
bers was about one-seventh. while the
increase In value was nearly two
times what it was in 1910.
Iowa takes flrst place in the mum.
Der of chickens and guinea fowls,
but loses that position when it comes
to counting turkeys, geese and ducks.
In 1910 Iowa had 22,730,11s chick
ems and guinea fowlA as compared
with 1s,e07,673 in 1900. There was
material decrease, however, in the
numbers of turkeys, ducks and
geese in that. ten.year period. In
1900 Iowa boosted total Of 1,136,e70
turkeys, ducks and geese, but in 1910
the number had dropped to 564,6e9,
or nearly half. This indicates that
Iowa poultry raisers prefer chickens
and guinea fowls to turkeys, ducks
and geese, or else the Iowa consum.
or likes his chicken better than his
turkey, duck or goose.
While the state was losing inter.
est in turkeys, ducks and geese she
was gaining an affection for honey
bees. In 1900 the state boosted 1884,
S11 colonies of honey bees and ten
years later the number. Of colonies
had increased to 160,425 There was
. material increase in the value Of
these colonies. The 1900 colonies
were worth $443.923, while the 1910
colonies were worth $517,32S.
