WHY THE FLY is DAN.
GEROUS.

For each female fly Matched in April
there will be. If none of her progeny
are killed. 7.GOO.OO0OO0 In September
Of the same year.
Every fly is possible carrier Of dis
ease On his hairy little feet.
He delights In cesspools. decaying
animal and vegetable matter. barn
yards. offal heaps, garbage barrels.
etc, places where disease germs abide
and multiply.
But he likes to vary his dlet-fresh
meat. sugar. bread-anything that
humans eat the fly also likes.
He dearly loves to frequent the
kitchen and dining room Of his human
friends at their meal time. and be
lunches on all kinds of filth between
those meals.
Every time he leaves the swilI bar
rel or the cesspool for the kitchen or
the dining room he carries with him
on his feet some Of the filth on which
he has just been walking
Swat. therefore. the voracious fly.
or. better still. swat all you see, but
keep from seeing many by starving
them to death by keeping all their
food supply in the stable. cesspool.

WAKE UP AND DESTROY
THE FLY-NOW.

When the little pests begin to swarm
about our doors so thick that no
amount Of shooing will drive them
away. when good dinner is spoiled
for us by the sight of fly In the
gravy, then we will begin to buy fly
traps and paper and poison and spend
hours Of each day swatting them and
scolding the children for leaving the
door open. and We'll keep right on in
the same old way until frost comes.
We have done it for years, and we can
go on doing 1t for years to come, and
thousand years from now there will
be just as many flies to swat as there
are now unless we change our meth
DDS.
When we were children we were
taught that the fly was q harmless lit
tie creature. natures scavenger." and
therefore friend to man. Even then
we looked upon him with aversion
when we found him swimming in our
milk, But now that we know his
scavenging consists in collecting filth
and disease germs in our outhouses
and depositing them on our food ev'
cry mans hand is against him. Sci
ence has pronounced the death sen
tence upon him. and the only reason
that his execution Is delayed is be
rause there are so many Of him.
This new way is the way Of pre-
vention. Stables and refuse piles. out
houses and garbage cans are points Of
attack in the fly campaigns BY max
ing the breeding places inhospitabIy
clean and sanitary more can be ac
complished in day than in season
of swattng the fly after 1t has once
come into existence.

The Experiment Station bulletin
No. 11S, of the Massachusetts Expert
ment Station, Amherst, Mass, gives
very complete digest of the subject
OF molasses as a feed. The conclusions
do not seem to be very satisfactory
regarding its value. Where it can be

are high priced, it probably has place

stock will eat this to get the molasses.
1t is also used to quite an extent with
alfalfa meal.
It's principal feeding constituent is
the sugar or carbohy drates, and the
conclusion of the Bulletin seems to be
that these can be bought more cheaply
In such feeds as corn than in the
molasses. However, it would be well
for you to find out what it would cost
you in your locality before deciding as
to feeding or not feeding it. At the
present prices CT other feeds, we are
Inclined to believe you Will find that
an investment in molasses for a feed
will not be a profitable one.

PULITZER DENIED WARRANT
Charge of Criminal Libel Against
Gaynor Not Sustained.

New York, May 6.-Magistrate
Frederick Gernochan announced that
he has refused to grant warrant for
Mayor Gaynor on charge Of Grim
inal libel brought against the mayor
by Ralph Pulitzer, son, of the late 10.
seph Pulitzer, owner of the New
York World. Magistrate Kernochan
based his refusal on the contention
that it had not been proved to him
that Mayor Gaynor had caused or
procured the publication of the al.
legged libel, which, 1t was alleged, ex.
posed the memory of the late Joseph
Pulitzer to contempt and obloquy.
The application for the warrant
was based upon a speech made by
the mayor on Feb. at banquet
given by the South Brooklyn Board
Of Trade.

Decision to Give Up the City Which
Cost the Lives Of So Many of Ills
People Reached by the King After
a Council With All His Generate
Proposed Compensation.
Cettinje, Montenegro, May 6.-King
Nicholas Of Montenegro decided, after
a council with all his generals, to
evacuate the fortress of Scutari in re.
spouse to the demand Of the Eur
opean powers.
When he took possession of Scutari
April %, after a six months siege,
which cost the lives of thousands of
Montenegrins and Turks, King Nicol-
as declared that he would hold the
city until the last drop Of Montene-
grin blood had been spilled.
Crisis Was Brought About.
AS the European powers had de-
cided previously that Scutari was to
form part Of the future autonomous
state of Albania, crisis was brought
about and the powers Immediately
brought strong pressure to bear to
force him and his troops to evacuate
the place.
Meanwhile Austria took energetic
steps to enforce the powers decision
and concentrated large bodies of
troops in Bosnia, Herzegovina and
Dalmatia. The powers in the interim
established q blockade of the Mantle.
ocgrin coast
Ruler Stood Firm Until Now.
All these demonstrations, however,
seemed not to affect the determine
ton of the king. Some of the Monte.
negrin troops were withdrawn from
Scutari in order, it was said, to re-
sist possible Austrian advance.
Then word came that Austria and
italy had entered an agreement to
solve the Albanian problem by a mill
tary expedition and it was known that
the Austrian army was preparing to
march forward.
Compensation for Nicholas.
1t was suggested during the negoti
ations that the king of Montenegro
would receive territorial compensa-
ton in another direction if he would
give up Scutari and that his majesty
was preparing to accept this offer.

HARRY THAW ESCAPES
Gains Liberty In High Powered Auto
With Aid Of Confederates

Matteawan, N. Y. Aug, 18,-Harry
K. Thaw, slayer of Stanford White,
escaped from the hospital for the
criminal insane here at 7:45 o'clock
Sunday morning. He darted for liber-
ty through an open gate, dashed into
the open door of a powerful automo-
bile that stood on the curbing outside
and. flew like rocket for the Con-
necticut state line, 80 miles away, ac-
complishing his escape.
Tonight he was still at large and
hospital authorities felt certain he
was outside the state. Once beyond
it's boundaries Thaw is free. Only
perhaps years of litigation can bring
him back and then only in the, one
event that he will be judged insane
in the state to which he fled.
Authorities hold to the theory that
Thaw made for some point on Long
Island sound and boarded ocean going
Yacht that either would take him to
another port or transfer him to an
other liner.

Saturday Afternoon. ...
FOUND SUNDAY AFTERNOON

Bagley MIMI, Aug. Saturday
afternoon Herman Johnson, aged
eleven, son of John o. Johnson Of the
Town of Nora wandered away from
home and could not be found for
many hours. Herman is a feeble
minded lad and left home between
three and five o'clock Saturday af-
ternoon. All efforts to locate him
were fruitless Saturday and an ap-
peal was sent to authorities at Bag
ley. Eight Automobiles loaded with
men and dogs were rushed to the
Johnson home and many more later
in the forenoon were mustered, when
the fire bell sounded and a posse
formed.
Parents of the lad expressed fear
that he had wandered into Mosquito
Swamp which is located about one
mile from the Johnson house. In this
swamp there are many big holes
where pools of stagnant water are
hidden by tall grass.
About 2: p. m. Sunday afternoon
the boy was found in semiconsious
condition about a half mile in the
thick timber. The boy was badly
bitten by the mosquitoes but will pro-
badly recover.

JAMES A. PATTEN
LONG ON CORN
Shrewd Broker Stands To Clean Up
Big Sum By Buying At A Low
Price
WAS FORMER WHEAT KING
Commodity Now Sells For rs Cents
A Bushel With Visible Supply
Bought Up

Chicago, Aug. 18.-James A. Patten,
Chicago's multimillionaire grain bro
ker, smiled broadly when the statistic.
al bureau OF agriculture at Washing.
ton made it's corn report. It is a
gloomy report, indicating that there
will be not more than so per cent of a
full crop. Patten is long.
"Oh, not so very long," he said at
his Evanston home. Cali I've got is
million bushels or so-about 1,100,.
600 bushels, to be accurate.'
Quietly, systematically, through
confidential agents, Patten has been
buying corn as fast as it could be
bought. The market is tense with
excitement, because it is generally
believed that Patten has bought for
future delivery about all the corn that
can be delivered.
The only evidence as to the amount
he really has bought is his statement
-"only a million or So" But reports
were widely circulated in La Sale
street that the future. delivery con-
tracts owned or controlled by Patten
would reach the figure Of at least S..
100000 bushels. ......
He bought, it is said, at bottom
prices; at least he did the bulk of his
buying at the bottom. Lately, how
ever, as more and more persons have
learned of the discouraging prospect
of a crop, the price has advanced It
is now around rs cents Patten is
said to have bought as low as 43
cents His paper profits which
would be profits in pocket if he sold
his holdings at the present market
price, are estimated at from $250,O0O
to 100000. :
