The house fly is buster now
and more destructive than at
any time during the season.
Now is the time to swat and
destroy and give them no
chance to pass the winter
Dr. Skinner, the great entom-
oloyist, says adult flies does
not live over the winter till
spring. The best plan is to
prevent the little worms
from developing. Kill the
late flies in the fall and the
early flies in the spring, and
yon will control the fly nnis-
arce. Cut off the egg supply
and the nuisance is over.

Is the solemn duty not only OF say

Under such circumstances Presi-

there is from one end of the country
to another an abiding faith in his

THE FUTURE OF INDIA.
(The Chlcago journal. }

(Tn0 CnlcaBO JOurndlD
What will be the status of india
in the British empire after the war?
Even in the press Of instant needs,
that question must cross the minds
OF thoughtful British statesmen, but
It is doubtful II the most far-seeing
among them can give 1t anything like
full or certain answer. Only one
thing is sure: India will claim and
receive large measure of self-gov.
ernment and fuller participation In
imperial affairs than she has had be-
fore.
The loyalty Of India has been
one Of the great surprises of tho
war. Instead Of bursting into
flame Of revolution the moment Brit
tin was involved in Europe, india mas
come forward with voluntary offer
ings of money and troops, suspended
all agitation for political changes
until after the war, turned dear
ear to the persuaslons of kaiser and
sultan.
Provinces and principalities which
have proved their value In this FASH
ion in time of war cannot be rele-
gated to the status of lesser breeds
without the law in time Of peace. But
what other status can they assumeY
Can India be trusted with self-gov-
ernment like that which prevails IN
Canada and Australia? Can Euro
peans and Asiatics henceforth work
side by side instead Of tandem, as
hitherto?

Nature has been more than generous

approach from the Black sea on the

PERMANENT ROADS THE
BEST.

NJ HE average westerner is a
VI booster and this is true
whether he is a native or
a westerner by adoption. 1t is
a new country still in the build
ing. So development work is
part of the natural order.
This natural tendency on the
part of people can be turned
nowhere to better advantage
than in the construction Of i'm.
proved roads. Good roads are
a permanent blessing and sell
dom do they fail to pay for
themselves in one way or an
other.
1t is more often a commun-
ity or county blunders by not
building good roads than by
constructing such highways.
Immense sums of money are ex-
pended in temporary work on
roads that are not properly
laid out and can never be of
the best service. But there are
people who overlook such ex-
penditures and devote their en-
ergies to complaining when it
is proposed to spend money on
work that will be good at all
times of the year and will per-
manently benefit many people.
The permanent road build
er is the true booster and he is
also the best advocate of eco
nomy. The narrow individual
who will support work only
when carried out on a penny
wise, pound foolish" basis is
the man to beware Of.

TIMELY INFORMATION.

n OR the eagerness with
which they have taken
after the army worm and
shown up the weak spots in
his defense Mr.. Gambee of the
local high school and Mr.. Low
EFT of the agricultural college
are to be complimented. They
have provided information that
was much needed and it is all
the more gratifying to know
that the pest will probably not
be serious.
There are times when such
pests do become very injurious
and it is generally when the
evil is allowed to go unnoticed
until it gets beyond any pos
sible control. In the present
instance the Coombs canyon
farmers had the foresight to
report the trouble to the "war
college" very shortly after the
enemy appeared. Conse-
quently the experts were
quickly on the scene and they
were able to give some facts
that were not generally known.
Such information is the first
requisite in any campaign to
prevent damage by such a pest
and here is where the expert
enced entomologist comes in
good stead. He knows the life
history of the various worms
and beetles, their natural enc
mics. as well as other facts
about them and so is in positi-
on to know the best points of

MANNERS AS AN AID TO
SUCCESS.

n n one Of his recent articles
u in the Chicago Daily News
DR.. Orison SWEET Marden
declares that all doors fly
open to the we'll hammered
person, while the boor, to win
success, must overcome the pre-
judices that his conduct arous-
es. In this connection DIR.
Marden said further: There
is no charge so persistently
brought against Americans by
foreigners as that of lack of
manners" He attributed our
failure to win commercial sue
cess in South America to the
brusque methods of our busi-
ness men who go thither. BY
chance the same subject was
discussed on the same day by
Former Senator Root of New
York.
Mr.. Root, who as secretary
of state enjoyed special oppor-
tunities for securing a close
knowledge of South Ameri-
cans, asserted that our coun-
trymen are inclined to use
methods that verge upon bad
manners. He declared that po-
liteness and courtesy are essen
tial if we are to succeed in our
dealings with the Latin races. |
1t is true that the average
American in the rush of his
business life is inclined to be-
little amenities that people of
foreign lands consider essen
tial. In the broader contact
with other races resulting from
our growing commecial and di-
plomatic interests Americans
will learn that the art of po-
liteness, and even the superb
cial manners" that they are
inclined to scorn as mere hol-
low pretense, are well worth
cultivating to a reasonable ex-
tent.
The beginning of politeness
must be made in the home and
he schools. Unfortunately
here is still much to be desired
n the quality of instruction in
iindness and courtesy impart-
d by many parents and teach

nent in the social side of school ,
