MUCH DAMAGE BY THE FLIES
California Scientist Tells Causes Of
Mortality Among Babies After
Five Years of Inquiry.

Berkeley, Cal.-Ordinary housefiies
cost annually 5000 lives and an eco
nomic loss of $1S,000,OOO in California,
according to report issued by the
University of California.
William B. Herms, assistant profess
sor of entomology, who passed five
years in investigations, says flies
transmit typhoid, dysentery, tuber-
culosis, "pink-eye,' and, under certain
conditions, leprosy, erysipelas, small
pox, plague, trachoma, septicaemia,
Asiatic cholera, sleeping sickness and
other diseases. This they do mostly
by planting germs wherever they put
their feet.
Thousands of deaths among in
fants, Mr.. Herms holds, will be avert
ed when mothers and nurses keeI
flies off babies faces and hands.

GRANT HOLT SEWS WHEAT.

Grant Holt has contracted for the
blowing and seeding of twenty acres
of land to winter wheat on his home.
stead six miles east of Anne. ican
Falls and the grain is to be in the
ground next week.
Mr.. Holt brought in samples OF
red beets weighing four pounds each
and turnips weighing eight jounds
that grew without irrigation.
There is a prevalent idea that as
turnips and other vegetables are
sweeter when grown rapidly, that the
sweetest turnips are those that are
watered plentifully and that those
grown on the dry farm plan must be
strong, but the successful turnip
raisers advise the use of the least
water that will keep the turnip grow
ing we'll. The sunshine and cultiva-
ton put the sugar into beets, and the
same conditions probably make the
sweet crisp turnip, granting of course
that it does not suffer from drought.
