FLIES IN IOWA
FEWER THIS YEAR
ALTHOUGH NOBODY HAS COUNT.
ED THEM YET STATE FOOD
MAN SAYS so.

Des Moines, Aug. s.--Although no
fly statistics are at hand and nobody
has been around counting flies, never
theless w. B. Barney. state food and
dairy commissioner, ventures the as
sertion that flies are fewer than ten
years ago in Iowa. The swat the fly
campaigns are beginning to show re-
suits, Commissioner Barney says.
IF this swat the fly movement
keeps up persistently we will have
practically eliminated flies in another
decade" said Commissioner Barney.
1T is showing results In most ap-
probable defamation in flies. | feel
sure we do not have nearly so many
flies in this state as we had few
years ago.
There are places in Germany where
flies have been exterminated just be-
cause the people have made continu-
Gus war against them. 1t will mean
a great deal to the public health when
we get rid of flies.
"They are germ carriers, these
pests. Doctors say they carry typhus
germs, tnfantile paralysis germs and
many other infectious microbes. They
>.~AA~
paign against them should be kept up
until they are exterminated."
The Boy Scouts in Des Moines have
set themselves to making fly traps.
these tall cone shaped kind made out
of wire netting, and soon 1000 of these
traps will be in use in Des Moines.
They are very effective in gathering In
the flies in great numbers. They are
also making a box shaped trap as
recommended by the government.
They are said to be very effective.
Merchants and manufacturers have
done big business in fly swatters all
over the country. Fly swatting Is be-
coming national pastime apparent
ly. During the late summer and early
fall the flies are most in evidence and
especially pestiferous.
From the number of bulletins on the
subject now being distributed by the
state food and dairy department it
looks as though there was sort of
mobilization by households and by
communities for final late season on
slaught against flies.

him she gave her hand in marriage in
the beautiful month Of May, 1868; but
her matrimonial life was destined to
be short, for he who had plighted his

August 5. The Hardsocg Manufac-
turing Co., has scored another tri-
umph in the purchase from the Black
Diamond Tool Co. Of three patents on
a miners pick, the novelty Of which
Is that the handle Is easily removed
and instead Of the miner needing a
handle for every pick, as Of old, one
handle will now do for all. There are
several advantages accruing from the
use of such pick, among which may
be mentioned the reduction in expense
and weight, convenience Of handling,
etc. There is a great demand for this
pick and the Hardsocg Manufacturing
company is exceedingly fortunate IN
getting control of it.
