NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, May 20.-The rather
poor response by Liverpool cables to
late steadiness here yesterday caused
a decline Of I to 3 points In the cotton
opening today. There seemed to be no
aggressive pressure, however, partly
due to the continued unsettled weather
in Texas, where the crop is still late
and in need of sunshine, and toward
rhe end OF the first hour new buying
carried prices up about 2 points above
the previous close.
Futures opened steady: May. 922:

Moderate Wall street buying proved
sufficient to send the market from ten

but general business remained very
quiet and the market was dull right
after midday. although prices held
within a point or two Of the best.

In Cleveland they made their city
nearly fyless, through the efforts of
the school children and the Boy Scouts,
who were organized by DIR. Jean Daw-
son into sanitary forces. She had the
their schools, and where any insanitary
places were found they filed out
blanks and turned them in to head
quarters, giving the conditions, and
the exact location. Notice was then
sent to the offender to "clean up" If
this was not done within few days,
the boys themselves turned in and did
the cleaning, and the city wagons re-
moved the dirt. Publicity was given
through the press to those who persist
ed in maintaining insanitary places.
This publicity was not enjoyed and
soon had it's desired effect.

:The girls were formed into sanitary
aids: they visited in pairs the gro
ceries and markets. and counted all the
flies they could see in three minutes
If more than the number allowed, 1t
was reported on the slips sent into
headquarters. and they were listed
among those having an excessive num-
ber of flies. Some places advertised as
hyless stores and the girls kept close
watch that they were so in reality.
Many stores and restaurants became
fyless through this plan. DR.. Dawson
was able to get 1t made a punisha BILE
offense to leave fy-breeding refuse
standing more than seventy-two hours,
or during that time to be kept outside
of a brick, concrete or metal container.
Before the end of the season Mayor
Baker issued the statement that DR..
Dawson had made the city practically
nyless.
IF every householder In Washing
ton would see that there are no fly
breeding places on his premises, and
would order one of the traps, and have
it used on his porch or on top of his
closely covered garbage can. with all
The Star traps in use. Washington
would become fyless before the sum-
mer Is over, without doubt. Will you
do your part?"
