LEGAL BAN on sPITE FENCES
California Newspaper Welcomes ccurs
Decision On Subject which Inter.
este Many Communities.

The new state law against the vi
cious system Of spite fences was up
held BY San Francisco court, and Il
this decision a. affirmed I'm the su
preme court We shall see the elimina
ton Of these structures. says the Sac
ramento Union.
In the case under consideration q
certain rich man. who had built his
home on the summit OF Russian hill.
commanding q view Of the bay, OBJ
jccted 70 the fact that flats had been
constructed 80 that they overlooked
his residence.
He demanded that the top story Of
the building be cut on. and when this
was refused he erected q great wall
which cut OF not only the view Of the
bay. which was one OF the chief az.
fractions OF the building, but also de-
priyed the residents OF light and air.
Tbs court has ordered the fence cut
down to ten feet.
This decision is In the interests OF
fair play and common sense. While
no one will deny to property owners
the right 10 make the best possible use
of their property. with due regard for
me rights Of other people. yet when
ownership Is used TO the intentional
detriment Of others II IL q menace 10
the public.
The spite fence Is simply the visible
evidence OF bad temper. Because we
own preteerty we have no right TO de
prive others OF free air and light. The
erection Of O legitimate building which
cuts on the light OF others is one
thing. but the construction of hideous
obstruction for the specific purpose
If injuring another Is a radically DIFF
'erent thing. II cannot be defended,
Let W. hope that the new law will be
Upheld in the higher courts and that
we shall have an end OF these physical

How TO Kill Flies.

To clear rooms OF flies carbolic acid
may be used as follows: Heat a shovel
or any similar article and drop thereon
twenty drops of carbolic acid. The
vap0r kills the flies.
A cheap and perfectly reliable fiy
poison. ono which Is not dangerous tC
human life. Is bichromate OF potash in
solution. Dissolve one dram, which
can be bought at any drug store. In
two ounces OF water, and add a little
sugar. Put some OF this solution in
shallow dishes and distribute them
about the house.
Sticky nypaper. traps and liquid pol
sons are among the things TO use In
killing flies. but the latest, cheapest
and best 10 n solution of formalin or
formaldehyde I'm water. A spoonful OF
this liquid put into a quarter OF a pint
OF water and exposed in the room will
DO enough to kill all the flies.
