Flies Destroy Good Reputation

No screens are better than
lll-tittlng screens or screens with
holes IN them, says the State
Board Of Health. The latter act
as fly traps and mosquito cages.
A fly will find its way through
the most unsuspecting hole when
the smell Of food is leading him
on and a mosquito will squeeze
through most any size crevice
when the taste Of blood is be-
yond him. Therefore the Board
advises mendlng last year 5
screens before putting them up,
and if they have been up all win
ter, it Suggests looking them
over carefully to see that they
contain no holes and that they
tit tight.
The Board says further; Mos
quito netting we'll put up is fly
proof as we'll as mosquito proof
and if moderate care is given it,
it will last a season. Since mos
quito netting solves the expense
problem of screens, it stands to
reason that people who do not
have their homes screened are
either not educated to the filth
and danger of the fly or they
simply prefer his company, "
Screens in a home no longer
exclusively represent a fear of .
typhoid fever and diarrhoea dur,
ng the summer months, " CON
.inueS the Board, but they are
oOked upon now more as an in
lex to decency, perhaps, than
else about the home. A

N. /. Shipman Commissioner Of
Labor and Printing

While the HERHLD has not 50
far done much in the way of
pressing the claims of different
candidates for the State offices,
it nevertheless wishes to go on
record as being hole-heartedly
in favor of the denomination and
election of M. L. Shipman for
Commissioner of Labor and
Printing.
Mr.. Shipman has made one of
the best Commissioners of Labor
and Printing North Carolina has
ever had. The routine work of
his department has been econo-
mically and efficiently prosecuted

Educational Comparison

A recent issue Of the llniypr-
sity News Letter gives interest
ing statistics in regard to the
per capita school Investment for
white children in the counties OF
North Carolina, and compari,
son Herewith of the amount per
capita invested in automobiles in
the same counties.
1t is illuminating to note that
twenty seven of the counties had
more money in motor cars than
in school property, and in four
teen counties more the two in
vestments were nearly equal.
In per capita investment in
school property, Halifax county
ranks fortieth, with $5.24
Northampton county, thirty
seventh, with S.. IS against Dur
ham, first, with 1897.
Durham children may be
worthy of better education than
the children of Halifax and
Northampton, but we are not
going to admit it The above
statistics should be valuable ar
guments in advancing the cause
of better schools and better
school buildings and equipment.

NOTES

If old pots are used for Potting
bulbs they should he thoroughly
scrubbed and washed inside and out.
DO not use toe large pots for bulbs.
Eour-iuch pots will held one hyacinth
bulb and a slX-inch pot will hold five
tulips or five Roman hyacinths; three
hyaeiuthS or three narcissi.
When pos of bulbs are placed in
dark, cool cellars or closets, give them
only sufficient water 10 keep the soil
moist Examine them Frequently and
see that the soil does not become dry.
Six weeks is the usual time that
bulbs require to make good root
growth, but some may require more
and some less time When top growth
is an inch high, the roots are possibly
sufficiently developed So Tire plant can
he started in growth Stand the plants
on table or the floor and cover with
Il newspaper fer few days before cX-
posing TO the strong light. Allow this
to remain fer Il few days aud then
gradually reduce and admit light. As
seem rs the plant assumes n deep green
color it may have unobstructed light.

ROSES GREATEST PRODUCT
By ELIZABETH VAN BENTHuYsgN.

1t is not often in this war-ridden PEE
riod that any gentle bit Of information
comes from the zone of cannon and
shell, but here is a most vitality inter
esting bit of knowledge which has been
turned up, as it We're by the point of
the bayOnet and sent to us officially
from Sophia.
1t puts a new light upon altar Of
roses and offers not only an intensely
interesting insight into the most valu-
able character of rose culture, but. per-
haps, valuable light for the guidance
of the American eulturStS, notably
nlong the Pacific coast, where roses are
raised in many places SO profusely that
hedges and lamp post and telephone
pole=ornaments are fashioned from the
yirile growths.
Once we had the idea that weird
procession of eamels, winding slowly
along the Persian heights brought sea-
ward the altar of roses and that the
Shah's domain had Il monopoly in this
line. Later the Turk came to be re
garded as competitor for the honors
Of getting the most concentrated es-
sence known from the blossoms.
Now comes the official information
that Rose Valley, in Bulgaria, is the
worlds greatest source of the costly
perfume and that the Bulgarian pro-
fusion of rose culture has cut the price
Of altar Of roses from the old $50 an
ounce down to So.
We learn these things and the ac-
e0mpanyng absorbing detail, all be-
eaHse the Balgariaus are disturbed In
this gentle occupation by the more
pressing business of meeting the
allied arms on the south and the
Roumanans and the Russians to the
north. We have little interest in their
clash of arms on this page, other than
as II iutcrfercS with the worlds great
est rose garden.
The bulgarian rose district lies on
the south side of the Balkan mountains
in territory that once belonged TO THr-
key. 1t is Leo feet above the sea
level and constitutes a district about
as long rs Long island and twice as
wide There are in Rose Valley alone
10000 acres of roses and the atmos-
pherc is so pregnant with the odor
of the blossoms that it is like standing
in the doorway of a flower shop to
enter the fairy realm.
The roses are both red and white,
although the red. being the stronger,
is preferred for making altar of roses.

RETAIN BEST POULTRY STOCK
Sell Everything That Is Not First
Class, Keeping All High Pro-
dueers for Breeding

Two factors are working to reduce
the stock of poultry on hand. one is
the high price Of poultry, both live
and dressed, which obtains at present.
and the other is the high price of
feeds. The latter condition will likely
continue throughout the year. From
reports received, we find that in many
places farmers are selling practically
their entire stock because of these two
conditions. Under ordinary circum-
stances, we believe this to be a mis-
take and that it will be well for our
readers to retain their usual amount
of laying and breeding stock
In all probability, eggs will continue
to bring good prices and. even though
grain is high, the price Of eggs will
probably parallel it. Those who sell
off and depend upon buying their
eggs or breeding stock in the spring
In order to replenish their fiocks will
run the chance OF being disappointed.
our advice IS, don't sell too closely.
However, the standing advice always
in order. is: Sell everything that is
not tirst-class stock.-Pennsylyanla
Farmer
