Get Ahead of the Flies.

6 If you have stable litter, garbage,
or any sort of waste material on your
premises that can furnish either food.
or Matching place for flies, clean it
up NOW.
If there are any such points Of
danger on the grounds of your neigh
bors, urge them to clean up, and If
your urging does not produce the
desired results, call up the health de-
partment.
Filth breeds flies-not in the old
spontaneous generation sense, but
practically. Flies breed disease,
especially typhoid, infantile paralys-
is, and the various intestinal disor-
ders which kill so many thousands of
babies every warm season. The best
way to save babies is to wipe out the
breeding places and food supplies of
flies before the winged pests arrive.
Not even q musca domestica will
stop long in place which denies.
him food and lodging. Clean up,
NOW.
