FIGHT THE FLIES.
War Should Be Vigorously Made Upon
Their Breeding Places.

War Should Be Vigorously Made Upon
Their Breeding Places.
Now is the time to begin the fight
against the housefy. From % to 90
per cent of our flies breed in horse
manure. so that the obvious remedy is
TO prevent the collection Of Quantities
Of stable litter which might act as 9v
nurseries. Their next favorite breed
ing place is the kitchen garbage and
privies. These latter can be more
easily eliminated than the former.
Begin early by removing all stable
litter to the field See that no small
pockets of manure are left around the
stable yard after the removal Of the
pile. Then follow this cleaning up by
hauling the manure on to the field each
day during the summer. This NAV
seem like a burden to the farmer. but
with a little fOrethought it need not
he so. Arrangements can be made for
the use Of field for this purpose, and
i is a well known principle that ma |
nure placed at once upon the field is Of 4
more value as plant food Remember
hat during summer weather a period
II five days may be sufficient to pro-
luce brood of flies from the egg to
he adult so that manure left in a pile
or this length Of time will serve as a
reeding place,
Flies feed upon filth, such as sputum
nd that found in privies. but they are
ISo very strongly attracted by the
doris Of cooking and food in the a
0use. To prevent infection from be-
x carried to our food, every precau- c
on should be used to make the out i
lildings perfectly sanitary so that
es cannot enter, and the houses o.
ould also have windows and doors (
ted with screens
The motto in fly control should be-
setter sanitation" both in the barn. =

Famine Will Rank
With Bullets

London, Aug. 4.-Back of the
grim war monster descending on the
fertile plains of Europe stalks an ap-
partition even more terrible-famine
VI war comeS-war involving ALL
or most of the great powers famine
is certain to follow. The continen-
tai farmer, the tradesman, the small
fry of the factory and workshop, the
European of average or less than
average means sees 1t coming and
the sight strikes terror to their
hearts.
From bullets they may escape.
Their children, their women and old
folks, at least, may escape the raw
ages of war, but none can escape
famine. Those who are least able
to withstand privation would be the
first to feel it.
On the orders of the war lords
calling thousands upon thousands of
able-bodied men from the fields and
the work bench, interrupting tele
phonic and telegraphic communica-
tion, paralyzing movement of freight
on land and water, the European
sees Famine penning his advance
notices.
On the grain market panics and
the rapid rise of prices of all food
stuffs, he sees the first effects Of
these advance notices. Later on,
when real war comes, famines man
ifestations will be vast fields of un-
harvested grain rotting for want of
hands to harvest it or vegetable gar
dens tramped under foot by hordes
of hurrying soldiers, or orchards de-
nuded of their fruit by the hands of
hungry foragers.
History has never known such a
conflict as the European war will be
if it comes to pass that there is a
general war, so history can throw
little light on the effect bitter
and protracted fight will have upon
the food supply of the world
The siege of Troy, or the siege Of
Paris in the Franco-Prussian con-
fict, when thousands died of starva-
ton, would be infnitesimal in COM
parison
Famine treads close upon the
heels of war in Europe because Eu-
rope, with its vast population and its
comparatively small area, is pressed
even in times of peace to supply its
millions with food enough to sus-
tain them.
1t is the boast of the United States
that if every seaport were closed and
all importation shut off the country
could feed its population from its
own fields and gardens and still have
enough for half the population Of
Europe.
The conditions in Europe are the
importation were shut of
famine would creep upon the ma
tions, even if every available inch Of
ground were under cultivation. With
the men of Europe at war instead of
in the fields the danger Of famine is
intensified a million fold.
+ It is commonly known that the
British Isles could subsist without
importations only q days; that is,
if Great Britain were called upon to
feed the people of England. Scotland,
Wales and Ireland without outside
assistance, its supply Of food would
be exhausted within three weeks
