take THESE PRECAUTIONS
One of Our Townswomen Tells
How She Rid Her Home of
Fly Pest Last Summer.

The thoughtful husband and wife
flies are to be seen about their homo
during the summer. 1t should be the
proud boast of every family in this
town, for the absence of flies indicates
q clean and healthful home place.
H7e were discussing recently the
proposition of local campaign against
flies with one of the best known WON.
Ell in this community.
II will be glad to help in every way
possible" she declared, "and I'm sure
that if we all work together we can
reduce the amount of disease SO per
cent here this summer-especially
summer complaint among children and
typhoid fever among the men and
women.
do you know we had hardly any
flies around u place last summer?
OF course, it was a cool summer, but |
believe our efforts to be free of flies
had much to do with their absence.
eve screened the house early. We
hung two fly traps near the kitchen
door close to the garbage can. We put
n trap at the door opening from the
dining room into the side yard We
burned most of the garbage-peelings
and things. We had the manure hauled
away every Saturday morning. AnG
we used plenty of disinfectant AROUND
the clubhouse. It wasn't much trouble
once we got the habit"

rattiesilaGe. Wasps and centipedes are
harm]ess-and the deadly saurian and
reptiles mind their own business.
Preys on Ignorance.
Tho fly, on the contrary, butts into
everybody's business, spreading trou:
BILE as he goes. In the disguise of
harmlessness he preys on ignorance
and carries into our homes the germs
Of some of the most common and fatal
diseases that atflict this country.
This is the way he performs. The
fly feeds at a spittoon which has just
been used by a consulnptive. On his
hairy feet and body he carries away
tuberculosis germs. Or he visits a
vault containing the excrement of a
typhoid patient. Or he explores a dead
animal and loads up with putrefaction
bacteria. In each instance, usually,
he brings his poisonous presence into
our homes and rubs his filthy person
on the mouth Of the cream pitcher, on
the butter, on the bread, or on the loaf
sugar--or on the lips Of baby asleep
in her crib.
Reading such things as this sickens
the person of delicate stomach and is
disgusting to everyone. But you must
know the rotten truth for the protec-
ton of yourself and your family. If
you really will appreciate just how
filthy and dangerous the hcusefy is,
you will rise up with ali the other good
people OF the community and perform
such a cleaning as this town never
has seen. And you will keep it cleaned
up.
Army Camps CIean.
Have you yer visited a regular
army camp. or even a state militia en-,
campment? Do you know why the
sanitary officers take such elaborate
precautions to destroy all waste mat
ter--why all garbage, eXcreta, useC
bandages, etc, are burned and the
toilet and garbage cams SO carefully
covered? 1t is because our army pco
pie learned some frightfully costly les
sons at Chickamauga and in Cuba dur
ing the Spanish-Amcrican war and il
the Philippines a little later.
Thousands Of our soldiers died o
typhoid fever and dyscntery distributed
by flies. In fact more OF the boys il
blue succumbed to disease than tt
wounds afflicted by the enemy. How
did the doctors learn that the fly wa
the real messenger Of death? B.
clever scientific detective work. Their,
was DR.. William Gorgas, now a gen
elal, who with a highly trained corp
Of scientists traced the sources O
these diseases until they found tn
fly to be the guilty distributor. Nov
he's marked for death by the army.

New York, April 19.-Joe Wood, the former Boston Red SoX hurler, may join the Yankee staff of pitchers within the next few days. It seems that Manager Wild Bill' Donovan has promised Joe a job if the latter can prove that his arm is o. K. agaln.
 Wood has been training faithfully for six weeks on Columbia universl- tvs field, and declares he is confident that the wing is as good as it was when it helped to win pennants for the Boston Americans.
 If Woods whip is right again and he joins the Yankees, the local club would come close to being the favor ite in the 1916 pennant race.
