COVER MANURE BOX
AND GARBAGE CAN

A proper system Of manure disposal
is more important than all other meas
ures combined as a method Of con-
trolling the fly nuisance. A proper
method Of garbage collection and dis
posal is next in importance. The gar
bage should be drained, wrapped in
paper and collected in a ahy-proof metal
bucket. The bucket should be washed
at intervals with lye soap and water
and then sponged with kerosene in
water.
The foregoing advice is from the IA
nous sanitary authority, DR.. W. A.
Evans of Chicago. In our local cam
paign we should utilize this informa-
tion to the utmost. It has long been
recognized that swatting the fly would
never rid the community of his whole
tribe forever more. We have learned
that we must make war on him early
in the season by getting rid of his
breeding places and his natural
sources Of food supply-flth.
Some of US are inclined to grumble
that campaigning against flies is
mighty troublesome. Well, the grum-
blers will find 1t less troublesome to
campaign effectually against flies than
to nurse a member Of the family
through a spell of typhoid fever-and
much less expensive.

the desert, and $50 miles to the south,
Chihuahua Chihuahua has a popula-
ton of close on 10000. 1t is an ancient
city, dating from Spanish days, and 1t
is not without its beauty. Set in the
midst of wide circle Of treeless hills,
the town and the twin towers Of the
tawny old cathedral of San Francisco
d'Assisi may be seen from a great dis
tance. Much ore comes into. Chihua-
hua, or did in days of peace, for the
barren hills are rich in silver. 1t was
silver that brought most Of the Ameri-
cans to Chihuahua; they were mining
men who were murdered a few weeks
ago at Cusi, outside Chihuahua.
Chihuahua, which as short a time
ago as 1911, was referred to in Terry's 8
Guidebook to Mexico as "the largest
and richest of Mexican states" has
been terribly impoverished by five
years of chronic revolution and bandit
ry. The guerrilla fghters-and they
are all that in point of fact-have lived
off the country. They have got COM
paratively little out of the mines,
though at intervals they have extract
ed a tribute on ore mined, but they
have driven off great herds of cattle
looted stores, wrecked industry.
Reptiles and Dogs.
A great variety of insects and rep
tiles, including lizards, horned toads
tarantulas and rattlesnakes, abound in
the desert. Conspicuous among the
birds of the region is the chaparral
cock, which attacks and eats rattle
snakes with unbridled gusto. The des
ert has its own remedy for snake bites
| 1t is plant called the sneezewort
The Juice of its leaves contain strong
alkaloid, which serves as an antidott
for snake poison. Snakes have bit
ter dislike of 1t, and it is trick Of the
Indians to irritate them into biting It
with the result that they quickly die
| in commissions.
One of the interesting products o
| this region Is the Chihuahua dog
which resembles the sleeve dog o.
China and the chin kOro dog of Japan
They are sometimes called butterfly
dogs" Usually they weigh from one
to three pounds, and are often nj
larger than a large rat. Purebret
specimens are distinguished by de
preston about the size of pea in th'
forehead and by the possession of fv'
nails on each foot. Before the touris
tide set into Mexico these dogs coulC
be bought for five dollars each. Nov
they often sell for hundreds and ever
| thousands of dollars.

AOUSEFLY NESTS IN
FILTH.-HELP TO
KILL HIM

The housefy is a foul and dangerous
little pest. The female lays her eggs
In manure, in human excrement or in
the flesh Of dead and rotting animals,
never anywhere else. The eggs hatch
into maggots and the maggots feed on
the filth until they sprout wings and
become flies. The flies swarm into
our homes. bringing with them the
germs Of many diseases-especially
typhoid. consumption and dysentery
which they deposit on our food.
Many of our homes were saddened
last year by death resulting from dis
eases spread by flies. Therefore the
househy is our deadly enemy and we
ought to kill him of as far as possible
before warm weather comes. To do
this effectually will require the coop
GRAFTON of the whole community.
Cleanliness, generally speaking, is the
hy's greatest enemy. but II one man
cleans up his place-removing all
barnyard filth, keeping garbage cans
covered, etc.-and his neighbors on
either side do not follow suit, the one
man will not be protected from flies
and disease.
This war on flies is a Job for the
whole town, and it is a big one. It is
suggested that our local authorities or
some Of our active citizens call a meet
ing and make plans at once to start
the campaign for fly determination.
Let us enlist the aid Of the health Of
ficers, the physicians, the merchants
the lawyers, the mechanics, the wom-
en- and the boys and girls.
1t will be necessary to have a num-
Der Of committees to look after the
many angles of the work and see that
proper preventive measures are taken
to remove the opportunities for flies
to lay eggs and hatch them. Swatting
the fly is ineffective-you only kill
one ny at a swat. But If you begin
earlier by spraying manure piles and
the contents of outhouse vaults with
kerosene or with chloride of lime, so
that ny eggs will not hatch in these
masses, you prevent the birth of mil
lions Of flies.
The state board of health will be
glad to send US all kinds of informa-
tion helpful in carrying on a fly war,
II our local doctors have none on hand.
After the campaign organization is
formed, about the first thing to do is
to get reliable information and put It
in the hands of our people.
Who will make the first move to
start the campaign?

NO FILTH-NO FLIES!

Flies and filth go together. No filth,
no flies! About the only good thing
you can say about the fly is that his
presence should stimulate you to hunt
up the place where he was born and
destroy it so that it may breed no
more Of his kind.
Fly swatting may be popular pas.
time. 1t has been talked about much.
So far, it has proved ineffective. The
well-meaning person, applying the
swatter at every opportunity, kills one
fly at time. The removal of the con.
tents Of single manure box will swat
millions Of them at a blow.
Screens and swatters are a good
thing, but clean neighborhood is the
best. Get busy!

One way to control the fly is
to catch It in such q trap as
is shown above. The trap may
be placed near the garbage can,
or any other place that the flies
are sure to come. A simple
and effective trap may be made
from a grocery box by substi-
tuting wire netting for the top
and two sides, cutting round
hole in the bottom and inserting
in 1t a wire netting cone with
an eighth-inch opening at the
bottom and a half-inch opening
at the top. Some article of
food, preferably a fish head.
should be placed inside for bait.
The trap must be elevated sew
eral inches above the ground, so
as to give the flies chance
to enter. When the trap is full,
it may be emptied by shaking
its contents through a small
opening, ordinarily closed by a
sliding door. The trap described
and shown in the illustration is
a particularly effective one, as
it was planned with view to
the fy's habits. The odor of
food leads the fly to enter the
trap at the bottom. Once inside
it is attracted to the top by the
light. When 1t gets out Of the
wire cone it cannot escape. The
trap has the additional virtue of
being Inexpensive. 1t may be
made at a cost Of about twenty
cents and about a half hours
time.
