LAJOIE'S RECORD FOR
II YEARS LOCKS GOOD
Cleveland Star Has Only Twice Fail
ed to Hit 800.

Cleveland, April 3.-Nap Lajoie is
now entering upon his seventeenth
year in the major leagues. During his
sixteen years service he has failed to
pass the 300 mark only twice in 1907
and 1908. No one doubts the truth
of the oft repeated statement that
Larry would have passed the mark
even in those years if relieved of the
mana gerial worries.
Larry must eventually step out of
the ranks. He cannot go on forever.
When he does go baseball will have
lost one of it's most wonderful play
ers and grandest characters. But
Larry hasn't gone yet. Also, don't
place a bet that he will depart this
year or next or for few years.
When the king goes and his name
no longer appears on the score cards
there will be monument which will
forever stamp him as one Of the great
est Of the great. The memory OF
some of his feats may grow dim, but
his batting average, which follows,
will never grow dim in comparison to
others. -

STATE ENTOMOLOGIST
INDICTS HOUSE FLY
w. E. Britton Tells of Its Rela.
ton to Spread of Typhoid Fever

w. E. Britton. state entomologist.
read paper on 1.-THE House Fly and
Its Relation to Typhoid Fever in
which he indicted the house fly with
many offences against health. He
said:
1.-THE house fly has so often asso-
ciated with typhoid epidemics that
DR.. Howard suggests that it be called
THE Typhoid Fly For several
years it has been known as an i'm
portant agent in the spread of this
disease, notably in the war camps of
Spanish War and the South African
War. The disease almost entirely
disappeared from Bermuda when the
flies were suppressed. The Chicago
typhoid epidemic of 1902 and that of
the Minnesota Iron Range in 1910
were both traced to flies. The house
fly has also been responsible for the
spread of cholera in North China and
of dysentary in Worcester, Mass, and
at several other places where studied.
Files breed in stable manure, priv
ies,, garbage or other filth and then
crawl over food. If the filth contains
disease germs they are sure to con-
vey them to the food.
Each female lays about 12O eggs,
which hatch in eight hours. The
larvae or maggots live five days, and
then transform to pupae, which also
live five days. Then the adult flies
emerge, only ten days being necessary
in warm weather for them to pass
from the egg to the. adult stage.
Much carelessness has been shown
in the care of the sick and the proper
disposal of refuse matter For in.
stance, in the cases of contagious
diseases we disinfect and we fumigate
we quarantine the patient against 9TH
err persons, but not against flies. Yet
these little messengers may bear away
the centagion and thus spread the dis
ease. 1t is time that we revise our
quarantine regulations. Flies should
never be allowed in the sick room.
They should also be kept away from
food.
Though we can never exterminate
flies, we can control them and great
ly reduce their numbers by abolish
ing their breeding places. Manure,
garbage and other filth should not be
allowed to accumulate near human
habitation. Stable manure should be
removed at least once week to dis
tant fields Or else placed in a darh
pit or storage shed or cellar screen.
ed fro miles. It can also be treated
with oil or chemicals to prevent flies
from breeding in it. Not only in
more care be taken, but in country
districts also, for the sake of public
health, flies should be suppressed. The
matter is one of education and in each
community the health officer should
be a leader instead of a follower in
progressive sanitation.
ITO suppress Ties. therefore, abol.
ism their breeding places. screen
houses, stables and privies and place

Rosary Month

We have just learned an odd fact
about the month of May. Mr.. Buech-
ler's store window yesterday was re-
decorated and given over largely to a
showing of beautiful Vatti Rosaries.
We asked him why he made a special
display in April when no holidays
were in sight. Mr.. Buechler smiled
and said: "1t was a new one on me,
too. A Catholic friend of mine ask
ed me why I didn't make a special
rosary display for the May rosary
trade. Then he explained that May
is peculiarly a rosary season in Cath
Ollie circles, and every good Catholic
feels it a duty to have and wear a
perfect and beautiful rosary during
that month, which is dedicated to the
Virgin. 1t seems that if a rosary is
imperfect in any way they discard
them and buy perfect one. That's
why I'm showing them" M. j.
