mess and Improvement association have selected next week for Plain ville's campaign against the fly and if the plans on which they have been at work for some time do not miscarry MT. Fly is going to be kept busy for six days lodging the swat ters and keeping from the inviting entanglements which the townspeople are to prepare for his ''entertain- ''I' F. T Wheeler, president of the as- sociation, announced this morning that arran gements for the campaign are practically complete and if the townspeople give the cooperation ex- pected of them, considerable progress in the nationwide fight for the eim- ination of the pest will be made, at least as far as Plainville is concerned
 No less than five different circulars setting forth the various troubles traced to the fly, and the benefits to be derived from his death have been secured by the committees and they are to be distributed in such fashion that every person in town is expected to have one or more of them. They will be put in the stores, public library and schools to be passed out, and 1t is believed the effect they will have on the people will be, disastrous to the flies during next week.
 Principal o. L. Judd of the schools has become interested in the cam paign and he has agreed to arrange for the participation of the young sters. It is probable that the chill dren will be asked to write essays on the swat-the-fy idea and a fly-catch s,,-- T the pupils getting the best record in killing flies receiving prizes: This feature of the campaign should bring excellent results.
 Merchants will he asked to place fly traps outside their stores and at the various homes prisons for the lln- wary fly will be installed Tn the stores where devices for catching the fly are on sale. the owners have agreed to display the traps during next week.
 Instruction in the treatment of ma nure piles and other places where the fly is want to congregate and breed is to be given through circulars and if general cooperation is given the bus mess men, the multiplication of the unpopular insect will be greatly mini mixed dthis summer.
 President Wheeler and his asso- ciates are working energetically to make the campaign success and they are greatly encouraged over the interest shown by the people of the town. They believe the fly war will be a success and they look for an important step towards the extermi- nation of the "critters''.
