So when she had gone bit further she

Of officials whose advice may have much weight in determining the fu- ture policy of the United States. It was said today at the state depart ment that the constitutionalists' jun ta here believes consideration of their claim for recognition will not be delayed much longer. A state ment attributed to rebel leaders at Torreon that were awaiting news of the political effect of the victory on Washington is also taken as a sign of general expectancy that the United States government will recognize their claims.
 Conditions precedent to political recognition in such cases always have been regarded as involving the es- tablishment of regular government at some capital and the possession Of one or more seaports through which the government can communicate with the outside world. Recent re- ports state that Tampico is about to fall into the possession of the con- stitutionalists without further fight ing. In that case, it will remain only for General Carranza to locate capital, appoint a cabinet and other administrative officers in order to claim recognition.

 The individual fly may do us no harm. Nine hundred and ninety nine flies may exist without coming into contact with or carrying disease germs. But if only ten children in city of twenty thousand inhabi- tants die each year from infections
 brought to them by some of the mil lions of flies in the community, we are justified in condemning the en- | tire species to the last individual.

FLY TRAPS AID TO HOME
 PROTECTION SAYS EXPERT

Fly Swatting" is the subject
 which Dr. A. w. Morrill, continues to
 enlarge upon in this Sundays Re
 publican. The following from his
 pen is a continuation of the paper
 which he had in last Sundays issue
 warning the people of Arizona to
 guard against fly pests and advising
 them as. to the best means of ridding themselves of the bothersome insects. Dr. Morrill, treats traps and polsons , in his second contribution
 The use of traps and poisons near
 the house to reduce the numbers of 5 the flies in the neighborhood aids
 greatly in home protector against , the flies. The formaldehyde poison
 is sometimes useful in this connec- . tion, but is more troublesome than 3the maintenance of traps. Two kinds
 of traps are especially valuable for out of door work. The first kind is the large wire screen type usually made in cylindrical shape, two or three feet in height, but also made in prismic and other shapes, always with a large capacity. Such traps sometimes can be made at home out . of less than 30 cents worth of mate rrial but in any case should not cost more than 75 cents pr a dollar apiece ready made. For baits prob ;ably nothing. is superior to stale beer ,or a piece of stale meat. 'Prohibi- stionists and vegetaIians probably will :not object to this as an unworthy 1use for the baits named. The sec fond kind of a fly trap is designed to 9take advantage of the interior attrac- 'tlNeness14of of the garbage cans. This
 trap is fastened on to, or is made
 q part of the cover of the can. Its
 construction is similar in principal
