The open season of the housefly is
here once more. 1t is the duty of
every man. woman and child to join in
the campaign against this dangerous
insect. Cleanliess is the most effective
weapon in the war upon this carrier of
disease. Cleanliness in the home and
the stable, in streets and alleys; above
all in places where foodstuffs are pre-
pared ,tor. the market or placed on sale.
Baker shops, meat shops and the
kitchens of restaurants should be the
concern of every citizen, not of the
board of health alone. Fly hunting is
repulsive; prevention in the proper
places ruthlessly enforced when neces-
sary will ultimately do away with its
necessity.
