FLIES LAY eggs IN MANURE
Stable Dung Should Be Sprayed
and Removed Often, Says
Sanitary Specialist.

1.-THE most effective method of con-
trolling flies is by preventing fly
breeding" says Dr. w. A. Evans. an
eminent health authority and publ
cist. LAS a rule this means that no
collection of moist manure is to be left
accessible to flies for as long as a
week during hot weather.
Ely eggs and larvae live for week
in hot weather in moist manure. There
fore, If manure is hauled away and
spread oftener than once a week it
will not breed flies. The advantage of
a daily removal is that it means no
manure boxes, manure pits or manure
piles, and practical experience proves
an ell.
THE only places that have entirely
conquered the fly nuisance remove
manure daily. The only manure re-
ceptacles are small and portable. If
prompt removal is not possible the
next most effective procedure is treat
ment with chemicals.
THE methods of treatment advised
by authorities are with borax, or cole
mantle, or sulphate of iron. If the
amount of manure is small and good
deal of ground is available, spreading
in thin layers on the ground at inter-
walls of three days or less is feasible
and efficient"

Consumption Germs
Spread by Flies

The great white plague-tuberculo
sis-plain, deadly consumption of the
lungs, causes more deaths than any
other disease in the United States.
Flies are a big factor in the spread of
this frightful ailment. To go into de-
tails of the subject is very disgusting,
but disgust will not kill anyone. Con-
sumption will. and flies help.

STOP EATING MEAT If

Take Glass of Salts to Clean Kid

Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a wellknown authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir-
rltation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged id
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates. thus
ending bladder disorders
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now ard then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

men it was inevitable that some should
be disease carriers. The waste matter
which they threw off acted as an in
ried. Flies and other insects, but es-
pecially flies, swarmed around the filth
sinks and fed. They were a frightful
annoyance at meal time. and they
were the army's most deadly enemy
for they distributed dangerous germs
among all the men. AS result fever
and bowel diseases became almost an
epidemic. AS nation we were taught
a solemn lesson about the menace of
insects. Our army medical men learned
more in the Philippines. in Cuba, in
Porto Rico and in the Canal Zone
about the relation of flies, mosquitoes
and lice to tie spread of disease than
had previously been learned in two or
three thousand years.

means of protection against flies, mos

but flies are considered the most filthy

Of view.
1t is safe to say that If this COM

Wireless Amateurs Message.

1t was very pretty thing that the
amateur wireless operators of the
country did ON the night before Wash
1ngton's birthday. At midnight the
hundreds of boys who make up that
army sat waiting for message from
Davenport, Ia. When it came, every
one within hearing repeated it, and
each boy who received it relayed it
eastward in his turn, until it reached
the operators of the Harvard Wireless
club. They delivered it to a delega-
tion of boy scouts, one of whom read
1T aloud from the platform of the
town hall in Lexington. The message
was this: "A democracy requires that
a people who govern and educate
themselves should be so armed and
disciplined that they can protect them

lowing Arbor day proclamation:
In furtherance of the idea that i'm
PEELED the formers of our statutes in
this regard, and to the more firmly
fix the idea in the life of our state,
|, S. V. Stewart, as governor of the
state of Montana, do hereby designate
and set apart Tuesday, the ninth day
of May, 1916, as Arbor day.
."Of itself a tree, a shrub, a vine
or a flower may be an insignificant
thing, and yet it is part of the great
scheme of nature-something given by
an all-wise creator to man for his use
and enjoyment and the enrichment of
his life. Without these things to min
lister to the finer side of man, exist
ence would be a drab affair indeed.
and it is well for us as a people to
devote at least one day in each year
to serious contemplation of the Arbor
day idea and its full significance.
Let each of us on this day perform
some act that will not only give us
large returns in satisfaction during our
lives, but will be a joy to those of
future generations. And | do further
recommend that in all of our public
schools exercises appropriate to the
occasion be held, to the end that the
pupils may be made to know and ap-
preciate the full value of tree-plant-
ing in the beautifying of home, public
grounds and highways. Let all of Mon
tanas citizens make of this an Arbor
day indeed.
In witness whereof l have here
unto set my hand and caused the great

Make War on
Flies: Ward
off Disease

In order to make this community a
better place to live in, we must declare
war on the house fly at once. If we do
not slip up on him and strike the first
hard smashing blow, he is going to
come at us in overwhelming numbers.
How may we successfully fight the
fly? By destroying or removing his
breeding place, the manure pile, re-
moving all garbage and making the
privy vault fiy-proof. and by keeping
our yards and alleys clean. We must
screen our houses and use the swatter
and sticky fly paper without let-up.
Where is the fly born? In filth, gen.
orally in horse manure and outhouses,
sometimes in the flesh of dead and rot
ting animals-never in any clean,
wholesome place. The life cycle of
the fy's birth runs about ten days
from the time the egg is laid until the
mature insect is born. A maggot is
Matched from the egg. The maggot be-
comes a pupa Ia state corresponding
to the tadpole state in frog life). and
the pupa becomes the mature fly that
helps to make life miserable for us in
warm weather.
Flies Live in Filth.
Where does the fly live? Where
there is filth. and there is nothing too
filthy for the fly to eat He eats clean
food also, but his special delight seems
to be wallowing in filth, then buzzing
into the house and wiping his feet and
wings on substances you are about to
eat. Watch him and see for yourself.
Think of the most sickening, dis
gushing places where you have seen
flies. Think of them until your palate
is light and the pit of your stomach |
For if you think hard |
enough about this dangerous, nasty |
insect pest you will help fight his |
whole tribe with all your might.
The fiy's favorite place of residence |
is in the manure pile, the privy-vault, |
