Of the conference as permanent or

those at the convention, il perhaps the
most important Of the resolutions on
which the delegates will be asked to
pass. 1t is not expected there will be
shy formidable opposition. but the
delegates already are dividing into hos

number of other resolutions.
Trouble For Anti-Trus Resolution.
One Of these is the proposal to admit
that many Of the farmers cooperative
bodies as they exist a. present are in
violation Of the Sherman antitrust
law and to propose that the law be
amended. This resolution is in line
with suggestions made Wednesday eve
ming by Samuel Untermyer IN speech
at the farmers dinner. From the at

On the matter Of the Endorsement OF

It has been said truly that many o.
our greatest ills are borne of little
things: this statement certainly ap-
plies to disease. Many diseases are
borne by flies, and fies are little things
producing big effects In the health of
community. Besides their disease
carrying capabilities, flies are dis
gushing pest. They feed and wallow In
the filth Of all sorts, and become COW
cred with germs which are growing
and living in such filth, they proceed to
our food. and to the food Of our chill
dren. and contaminate 1t. This infected
food We eat and drink and in this way
disease is kept circulating from one
person, or animal to another in never
ending cycle. One has only to watch
them swarming around. attracted by
the garbage can OF by manure or filth
and then to observe them feed on our
food and battle their filthy feet in a
pitcher of milk. or walking upon the
sugar. or sprawling in the jam. OF
look at them on the window pane, OF
feel them buzzing around our mouths
and eyes. Glance at the glass OF the
window and see the marks they leave
Do they leave the same marks on our
faces and on our food? They infect the
food. and our children die. 1t is not
the food that kills our infants, but the
flies marks upon It..
The ravages caused by the common
house fly among children. especially
seem to be SO little known, or are SC
commonly ignored by the general pub
lie. 1t is known to be fact that the
common house fly Is carrier Of dis
ease, such as typhoid fever diarrhoea
dysentery and tuberculosis. These
facts have been established beyond
doubt thru experimental research
Scientific research, the gaining OF
knowledge, is of little use unless 1t Is
followed by the practical application
Of the discoveries made.
During the Spanish-Amer;can war
the parc played by flies in the convey
ance Of typhoid fever became a matter
Of Importance. During that war one.
fifth Of the United States army SOL
diers in the camps contracted the dis
deaths were due to typhoid. During
the Boer war in South Africa typhoid
fever ragged and numbers of the SOL
diers died of it..
The water supply, 1t is true. is otter
the carrier of typhoid fever, but ex.
periments have now proven that the
fly is of greater danger On account Of
it's being so widely existent in prac-
tically every country of the world
while a polluted water supply is gen.
orally Of local effect
The female fly lays about 40 eggs
which in the course Of about eigh,
hours become maggoS. and after an.
other transformation the full grown fly
appears, the total development oc.
curing within a period of ten days.
The eggs Of the fly are laid in ma
nure piles. rubbish heaps. and in. filth
Of similar nature. 1t is during this
stage that the insect can be mos,
easily destroyed. 1t gives us ten days

crawling and to take such measures as
we conveniently can, against it. It IL
a simple process. All manure piles and

ash heaps should be systematically re-
moved each week. The sprinkling OF
chloride Of lime kills the maggots In
great numbers If this filth was prop
erly cared for and promptly removed
regularly and perseveringly there
would soon be great reduction IN
the number of flies. and with the fies
would go much typhoid fever, ana
many infants lives would be saved, Tor
there would be no Intestinal disease.
This would mean the saving OF
money, for it is we'll known that the
lives mean money to the nation iand
also much misery would be avoided.
The measures suggested are merely
those of ordinary sanitation--an eni-
cient sanitary scavenger service. =
In recent years we have heard much
of the campaigns known as Swat the
Fly movements, and they have to
great extent been effective, but fear
many people are not giving this mat
ter the attention, from sanitary
standpoint. that it should have. Flies
should be regarded as a sign OF insani-
tation and their numbers as measure
of that insanitation.
It is j general custom TO screen the
doors and windows OF our homes as
we'll as the doors and windows Of every
place where we live or eat, az protec-
ton against flies. This custom Is good,
but if we look upon the fly the same
as upon dangerous animal. or crirni-
nal. we would see the advantage in
screening manue piles, stables, privies
and other places where cggs are de-
veloped. In this way eggs could not
be laid nor development occur in these
places. -
The length of a fiy's life varies with
the atmospheric conditions. In very
hot summers many OF the house flies
die when the weather becomes very
dry and oppressive, but when the tenn
perature is moderate a fly's life is pro-
longed. In the hottest summers fy's
life is believed to be about three
| weeks, but some observers have kept
flies alive. even in the warmest wealth
er. for sixteen weeks Very hot and
very dry weather certainly does Kill
off large number Of flies.
The elimination of the fly will do
more to improve the quality of our
| food than any other one act The
| season is now at hand wrer the most
effective work can be accomplished
Start now, your co operation is needed
Why? Because
First-F1ies breed In manure and
other filth.
Second-FIies walk ana feed on ex
| creta and supta from people i'll with
typhoid fever tuberculosis. diarrhoeal
affections. and many other diseases.
Third--One fly can carry and may
deposit on our food 5000, 900 bacteria
Fourtli-One fly in one summer may
produce normally 1852, SOC. 900. 600. 900
descendants.
FYfth-A fly is an enemy to health,
the health OF our children, the health
Of our community.
A fly can not develop from the egg
in less than eight days, therefore, If we
clean up everything thoroughly every
week. and keep all manure screened,
there need be no flies.
Will you help in the campaign
against this pest?
