NOTICE

The open garbage can is source of much
anxiety and distress at this Season. If
housewives will order their garbage placed
in paper sacks, or even wrapped in paper,
and deposited in the can, it will keep most
of the flies away, and when dumped in the
garbage wagon, the can will be dry in the
bottom, instead of the sour, bad smelling con-
dition usually found.
If the flies are swarming around your gar
bage can you may depend some will get into
your kitchen and dining room.
