HeIebOTe for Flies

A safe and effective weapon
against the typhoid or house fly
has been found in powdered helle-
bore by scientists of the depart
ment. Flies lay their eggs chiefly
in stable manure. Powdered
hellebore mixed with water and
sprinkled over the manure will
destroy the larvae which are hatch
ed from the eggs. Since powdered
hellebore is readily obtainable, this
puts in the hands of everyone a
remedy for one of the pests that
has been found dangerous as well
as troublesome. Powdered helle-
bore, however, will not kill adult
flies, which must be swatted or
trapped.
1t has long been known that
flies breed in manure, but previous
methods of destroying the larvae
there by the use of strong chemicals
have been open to the objection
that the treatment under some
conditions lessened the fertilizing
value OF the manure or actually in
jured vegetation. This is not true
of powdered hellebore. Govern
ment experiments have shown that
the hellebore is entirely decompos-
ed in the course of the fermenta-
tion of the manure, and that even

Automobile Races

1t will be worth $500 to any of
the drivers who succeed in making
a new worlds record on half-mile
track during the course of the auto
mobile speed meet scheduled to
take place on the local track at
Hibbing Sunday afternoon, July
Is. Local speed fends have made
the offer in order to gain added
fame for the fair grounds course.
Inasmuch as the drivers already
entered include such we'll known
stars as Louis Disbrow, track
champion; Johnny Raimey, who
defeated Oldfeld, Cooper, Carlson
and others in the Oklahoma City
$4,000 purse race; Eddie Hearne,
runner-up to David Bruce Brown
in the 1911 American Grand Prix
race at Savannah; Wild Bill"
Endicott, winner of the Columbus
100-mile race, and others of equal
reputation, chances for new
worlds recor appear very favorable.
The speedsters will compete in
seven events for total of 81, 900
In purses, in addition to the 5000
bonus for a new record.
