Start Now to Swat
Fly Germ Spreader

1t is high time to begin the annual
crusade against the housefly, declares
Surgeon General Rupert Blue, Of the
public health service, the arch-enemy
of winged germ spreaders.
Dr. Blue said that. figured out in
money, to say nothing of the loss in
human life, the cost to the United
States annually of supporting it's fly
population amounts to $157 100000. He
has estimated that the fly is RESPONSE
BILE for and expenditure of $50, 100000
for the handling Of tuberculosis cases.
attributable to germs spread by the
pests, while s70,0OO.OOO represents the
cost of typhoid fever cases, originating
in the same manner. AS carrier OF
intestinal. fever and summer COM
plant diseases" and a transporting
agency of dysentery, the fly. DR.. Blue
asserts, must be charge with an en-
penditure of 100000.
Many Lives Lost.
The statistics prepared with great
care and the grim realization that
thousands of human lives are sacrlflc-
ed annually because no method mas
been devised for abolishing the fly,
explains why the public health serv-
ments make active efforts to arouse
citizens to the importance or keeping
flies away from their food supplies anu
places of habitation.
Records on file at the hygienic lab
oratory at Washington show that sat
isfactory results were obtained in near
ly every city where anti-fly campaigns
were conducted last year. In many
instances, where fly swatting was be-
gun early in the year, there was a
great falling off of communicable dis
eases.
Methods of fighting the fly that
were followed in many Indiana cities
last summer are Endorsed in a bulletin
recently issued by the state ento-
mologist of Minnesota. The plan was
established with cleanup campaign.
After that was done, the method con-
sisted principally of bringing to the
attention of citizens. by means OF edu-
cational posters, letters and news
paper articles, suggestions for fly
eradication that have been tried out
with success by various cities.
Spring Cleanup Urged.
"In the early spring clean up all
refuse heaps, filth of all kinds, manure
piles, garbage heaps, old cans, trash
of every sort and abolish so far as
possible other places where flies may
breed" says the report of the Mime
sofa entomologist that was Endorsed
today by the public health service.
screens should be used freely on all
doors and windows. The prompt dis
posal of garbage should be arranged
for, and swill barrels and garbage
cans should be tightly closed. Use
some form of fly trap with the proper
bait, and continuously; place it where
it will do the most good. Arm your
self with a swater and whenever you
see a fly kill it

DEFERS BUYING LOT
FOR Detention SITE

The board of public works today de-
cided to defer action on the plan to
purchase strip Of land west of the
detention hospital and bordering Clear
Creek as site for the institution. This
was suggested in council SO that the
present hospital site could be used as
gravel bed by the city.
The board delayed any. action be-
cause 1t understands the county is fig
uring on opening up Main street from
West Eleventh street to Easthaven
avenue. II such action is taken the
city would not desire to maintain this
institution In that locality as it's pres
ence would handicap It's up-building.

Blue are the following g..
DO not build a stable near a dwell
ing. Arrange for the prompt removal
of stable manure from your vicinity;
keep manure covered and in the dark
until it is carted away. Keep your
premises clean. as free as possible
from filth of all kinds, slop water, gar
bage, refuse heaps and SO forth. If
your neighbor allows such nuisances
on his premises, complain of him to
your board of health.
Solution Is Recommended.
"A safe and effective solution is
made by adding three teaspoonfuls of
formalin to a pint of half milk and
half water. This is particularly use
full where, flies do not have access to
other sources of moisture. 1t should
be kept out of the reach Of children
and might be placed in a fruit jar
inverted in shallow dish, and so ar
ranged as to feed the liquid into the
dish as fast as it is needed. Or it
might be poured into an open dish
and placed near the sink or wherever
flies gather. Other sources of mois-
ture should be kept away from them"
