(By State Health DEPARTMENT.

Recent rains and summer heat have
combined to bring out the mosqui-
toes. That mosquitoes are a pest
and nuisance has long been feverently
admitted by everybody But it is
well to remember that in many cases
they are not only an annoyance, but
a positive source of danger. Several
diseases, malaria and yellow fever
being the most common, are trans
mitted by the bite of certain varie-
ties of mosquitoes. The yellow fever
mosquitoes are seldom seen in this
section of the country. But the ma
laria mosquito is quite common in
some parts of Oklahoma. Mafllaria is
far too common in this state. 1t will
not be controlled or eliminated until
effective measures are taken against
the mosquitoes which cause it.
Some years ago it was supposed
that low, swampy ground was respon-
sible for malaria. People talked wise
" of the "Miasma" arising from
swamps. especially at night. 1t is
true that malaria is more prevalent
in swampy districts and that many
causes have followed exposure to the
night air. But this is not due direct
" to the swamps, nor any property
of the air by night or day. 1t is due
TO the fact that the malaria species
of mosquitoes breed more freely in
damp, swampy territory and being

Bowe, Complaints In india.

In a lecture at one or the Des
Moines, Iowa, churches, a missionary
from India told of going into the in
terror of India, where he was taken
sick, that he had a bottle Of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy with him and believed that
1t saved his life. This remedy is
used successfully in India both as a
preventive and cure for cholera. You
may know from this that it can be de-
pended upon for the milder forms of
bowel complaint that occur in this
country. Obtainable everywhere.

substances soon lose their efficiency;
none will last until the morning.
The mosquito problem is not an
easy one, but it can be solved. With
the exercise of proper precautions
and efforts and with general CO.
operation there is no reason why
these pests should not ultimately be
only an unpleasant memory.

The soil in this state is peculiarly ad-
apted to hemp and with the problem

the trouble of spreading and rotting
the product, doubtless the farmers
would place hemp above tobacco, as it
would then be less difficult to raise
than the latter crop and would be

There was a real time banner raising late Sat urday afternoon, when one z0X30 feet was strung across Water street, at Pearl, bearing the portraits and names of the republican nominees for presi- dent and vice president, and further ornamented with a dome of the na- tional capitol entwined in the national colors. This banner cost just S100 and the money was subscribed by some of the borough republicans, with a surplus for a band and minor ex- penses. Congressman Richard P Free man of New London made a rattling good speech and predicted the election of Hughes and Fairbanks by larger majority in the electoral college ever given to presidential candidates. The music was furnished by the Imperial band, and the combined oratory and music combined with the flag raising created an enthusiasm that will con- tinue until the ballots are counted in every state of the union on Nov [ next.
