How Flies May Be Banished.

Every application of science is of in
terest to the Scientific American. and 1t
gives two pas.s to a narrative of the
successful fighting of the fly in the in
terest of public health in Cleveland,

every city an almost If not entirely NY
less city by simply keeping all garbage
and stable manure covered and remov-
ing it from the city regularly and at
short intervals This is entirely feasible.
City ordinances generally require that
garbage cans shall be kept covered and
emptied at least once a week. If this
rule were vigorously enforced and ap-
piled to stable refuse as we'll any city,
according to this authority. can keep
itself almost entirely free from flies.

PARIS, Sept. SO.--The following
official communication was issued

The general situation is salts

There has been no change OF any
account at the front except to the
south of the Woevre, where we have
occupied Seicheprey and advanced as
far as the slopes to Rupt DE Mad"
FROM THE BATTLEFIELD (via
Paris), Sept. 30.--This was the
seventeenth day OF continued hard
fighting along the 150-mile front
from the Somme to the, Moselle. and
yet there is no definite indication
that the historic battle is nearing a
finish. There are, however. evil
dences that the Germans are reced-
ing before forcible and surtained
pushing from the allied armies. espe-
cially on their western and eastern
wings, while the center, where the
Germans are more strongly en-
trenched than at any othr point with
heavy artillery, remains almost sta
tionary.
Move Necessary soon.
It is generally concluded by French mill
itary men that some important move
must soon be made by the Germans who
have found IL impossible TO stem the ad-
vance of the allies, though they offered
the sternest and most desperate resist
! ance. sacrificing thousands OF men daily.
The German wings appear TO be folding
back on the center. leaving them some
| loophoie for a backward movement by
way OF Rethel.
The Germans main supply base at Juni-
vile, which is protected by heavy nasses
of troops, as It is absolutely essential
that this place shall be held for the re-
Victuaiing Of the German armies In north

somewhat precarious situation with Its

Line Of Battle.
The line OF battle has changed con-
siderably since the beginning of actual
contact between the two great armies
whose numbers and real positions It Is
not permitted to make public. The front
now presens sinuous wingings, looping
inward and outward at various points.
