have reason to believe that these con-
tests were instrumental in reducing
the number of breeding places for
flies. This is particularly true in the
city of Topeka, where, from my own
personal knowledge, there have
been less flies than | have ever
known before. 1t would befair to
say, however, that probably the chief
reason for the reduction of the num-
ber of flies in the city of Topeka is
due to our splendid new incinerator
and our modern system for the col
lection of garbage, including manure
from the stables, and thus the breed
ing places for flies were removed and
destroyed. However, this has been
voluntary matter so far as the col
| lection OF garbage was concerned; /;
but am in hopes that in another sea-
son the city, by ordinance, will COM
pei every householder to remove his
garbage and manure. 1t is my be-
lief that the anti-fiy agitation has
been instrumental INFRINGING about
garbage collection system in a
number of cities of our State; for as
that has been the chief argument for
the establishment of such a system,
it should thus have the chief credit.
One of the most important lessons
learned from this seasons anti-fiy
campaign in Kansas is the value of
the utilization of the boys organiza-
tions of the state. The Boy Scout
movement was utilized very success
! fully in a number of the cities of the
State, and not only were the cities
J given a thorough cleaning of all OF
the city's waste, including bottles,
cans, accumulated debris, garbage,
manure piles and other trash, but fly
swatters were manufactured and dis
tributed free of cost; large traps
built or purchased and installed
throughout the cities; anti-fy ordin-
ances framed and their passage Sc
cured and an organized effort made
thereafter to see that they were en-
forced, which is the most stimulating
and hopeful experience that | have
thus far had in the anti-fy cam,
paign. If this movement could be
extended to the public schools OF
our State what might we not expect
in the matter of civic cleanliness?
Cleaning the Town-What Boy
Scouts Did For a Kansas City.
From Olathe (Kan.) Register, May
25, 1911.
Olathe has always been a clear
town, when compared with other
towns in Kansas,-clean morally and
physically. But there is an ole
adage Nothing is clean that can be-
made cleaner" and it was certainly
possible to make Olathe cleaner a
least physically.
The Civic League, with Mrs. T. l.
Hogue as president and Mrs. II. c
Hammond as chairman of the com
mittee on sanitation, took charge o
the movement for cleanliness. Mayo
Gorsuch aided by issuing a procla
nation declaring Saturday, May 20

did the work.

THE COTTON MARKET.


Giving way rather sharply at the
start under the weight of q general
selling movement, cotton quickly
turned about and recovered fully all
OF the early loss. This has been the
action of the market for some time
past; 1t goes downward one day and
upward the next, with the summer
options lowering around the 1O1sc lev
ell. Developments over Sunday were
of character disappointing to the
bulls; the weather at the south was
better, the political atmosphere abroad
somewhat disturbed and no settlement
had been reached in the big English
coal strike. Then, too, a number of
the operatives at Fall River express
ed themselves as unwilling to accent
D per cent advance in wages, asking
10 per cent instead. This also had
more or less effect on sentiment when
considered in conjunction with the 9TH
er depressing news. Yet, as already
intimated, the market was not long

to covering by the shorts. The south
bought. heavily, as did Liverpool and
large spot houses, the weather man
furnishing the incentive by taking on
threatening look. 1t suddenly turn

and rains were predicted for several
states; there has been altogether too
much rain in some sections of late

developments tending toward a settle

Advantages Of an Athletic Association
I'm High School.

No one will deny that an all-round
educated person is one who is men
tally, morally and physically trained.
The first two courses of training are
usually gained through the medium
of the school and home but there is no
definite means of gaining the latter
unless it is through an athletic as
sociation. There are great many
who object to such an institution in
school because it takes time which
they contend should be spent in study

Citations exist in nearly all colleges.
both made and female, and we usually
select the wisest and most capable
men for their presidents, then why
should they not be in the high schools?
High school life is only a stepping
stone to college life and if athletics
are considered by these learned men
as beneficial and proper for one, why
not for the other. 1t is true play, is
an important factor in the life of the
average school boy and girl, for with
out 1t their health Is impaired and
their work hindered, but systemized
and directed play is even better for
them, and this is what they receive in
an athletic association. 1t is neces-
sary that the close mental strain which
is necessary to studying should be
Offset by relaxation or all the mus
cles and nerves of the body, and there
is no better way of doing this than
by going out and making a hundred
yard dash across a field or giving
vent to few lusty yells on base

The training received in this way
is of great service in after life. Who
has not seen many a man when put
to the test of great endurance give out
in short while for lack of breath?
This same man had he the training of
his breathing organs and muscles
required in running, jumping and
vaulting, would undoubtedly have held
out longer Everybody advises a good

has trained his body and it's organs

pionshfp at the. St. Nicholas Athletic
Club. Sixty-sixth street and Columbus
avenue, New York, tonight. worked
harder for this contest than ever before
because there is SO much at stake.
Il think my record of engaging in
bouts for two different titles within the
space Of three months is unique In the
history Of the prize ring" said Burns
yesterday in discussing his coming bout
with the featherweight champion. ut
was only a few weeks ago that l fought
Johnny Coulon for the bantamweight IT,
tie at New Orleans, and now I am to
take on the featherweight champion. And
am confident that my contest with Kill
bane will show me to better advantage
than the bout with Coulon. In that
contest l had to make a weight which
was lower than should have attempted
because 1t weakened me so | could not do
my best work. Against Kilbane I will be
stronger than I have ever been since /
began boxing, and as have developed
punch with my increasing weight 1
think 1 will be able to defeat the cahm-
pion.
Since he began training at Rockaway
last Monday Burns has taken off tr1fle
more than three pounds of his extra
weight. He tipped the beam at 127h
pounds, He will have to make 122 pounds
at o'clock.
Reports received from Kilbane's train
ing camp, at Rye Beach, say that the
featherweight champion is In better
shape and much faster than when he
defeated Abe Attell for the champion
ship.
