Sometimes it will be pos sible to screen them away. This works we'll enough with dwellings. The few flies that get into well screened house can be swatted. or caught with paper. or killed with poison. 2 Where the doors are opening con stantly, screens are sometimes of lit9 tie service and sometimes none at all. Under these circumstances. what is to be done?
 Usually it will be possible to protect the food supply with cases. screens. or mosquito bar. Anything kept in the icebox will be protected. Flies sud- denly entering an atmosphere of 60 will escape if they can. If not, they slow up. At about AS they lose their ability to fly At 27. five degrees be- low freezing. most of them die.
 The best method of ridding a dairy barn. milk house. or store of flies will depend on the number present and on other considerations When flies are abundant, the use of fly traps is the most effective method.
 Sticky fly paper has some advan- tages and some disadvantages. A few saucers containing a mixture of one pint of water. one tablespoonful of formaldehyde (commonly known as formalin). and one tablespoonful of sugar will be eficacious. if not much water is exposed in the room.

 F. c. Bishopp of the United States bureau of entomology, tells us that the stable fly breeds largely in straw. Old strawstacks in the fields are the worst offenders. Bishopp's advice is to burn straw. and blow it in deep When a heavy rain falls on freshly threshed straw conditions for fly breeding are at their worst. Manure containing straw Is another breeding place of inn portance.
 To keep the flies of, Bishopp akl- vises mixture of fish oil lone gal lon), oil of pine tar (two ouncesl, oil of pennyroyal (two ounces). and kero- sene (one-hah a pint).

tanned by Lincoln and the army of the

Great problems affecting the welfare

the rightful solution OF these momentous
questions devolves upon the truly pa
triotic citizenship of our land. To the
end that the land Of the free and the

as such. in fact as we'll as in name, it be-
hooves every loyal citizen to teach, both
by precept and example. love of coun-
try and of home.

cestry established the government in 1776.
and saved it in 1861. an abiding faith
obtains that the welfare of the nation.

continue secure This belief will never
be shaken if truthful history is instilled
into the minds of the youth of the coun-

Teach to the rising generation. and
especially to the incoming millions from
other lands, the true principles of patriot
ism. This done, our institutions will re-
