S WAT !!
Now's the Time to Be
gin Your Summer War on
Dirty and Deadly I ouseay

The best means of getting rid of flies
is never to let them get a foothold,
according to W. w. SWEET of the Mis-
Although his recommendations are
made mainly from the standpoint of
protecting cows against flies, they are
just as applicable to the protection of
people.
The best means of fly control is to
prevent their breeding. 1t requires ten
days for the fly to develop from egg
to adult, so if all barnyard manure
and other filth in which it can develop
is cleaned up every five or eight days,
the flies supply will be cut off. IF it
is impossible to remove the filth far
enough so that the flies which breed in
it cannot reach the house or barns, it
may be treated with powdered borax
sprinkled over the manure pile or other
filth at the rate of about an ounce for
each cubic foot to be treated. After
it has been sprinkled on, it should be
washed through the pile with water.
Half pound of he1lebore which has
been allowed to stand in ten gallons of
may be sprinkled at the rate of a gal
lon to the cubic foot on the filth to
be treated.
In either barns or houses fytraps
help little, and a great deal of relief
may be obtained by mixing half
pint of milk, half a pint of water and
two tablespoonful of formalin Gao
per cent forrnaIdehyde). Stronger mix
lures have so much fornalin in them
that the flies do not drink it. A slice
Of bread may be placed in the plate
in which the mixture is exposed.
Cows may be protected by means of
commercial or homemade repellants.
Pyrethrum powder is good, and the
commercial repellants are generally
preferable If they do not cost too much.
Homemade mixtures of either one part
of crude carbolic acid or pine tar with
nine parts of cottonseed oil give very
good results If applied lightly.

ELY COMPLAINT"

Summer complaint is what they
used to call the intestinal infections
that carry off so many thousands of
babies each summer; but now doctors
often call it t'f1y complaint" for they
are frequently caused by common
house flies, which carry the disease
germs to baby's mouth. Screen your
house early. Keep out all the flies
you can, swat every fly that sneaks in,
and destroy all refuse heaps that might
be breeding places for flies. One doc
tors bill saved will pay for screening
a house, and may save life, too.

FLIES AND FEVER

Ninety per cent of the so
called s'house flies that make
life miserable and uncertain
during the warm months Of the
year are Matched in stable litter.
Keep stables and manure boxes
screened or disinfected, and
nine-tenths of the fly trouble
would be solved. The rest could
be abated by liberal use of traps
and swatterS.
Danish flies, and you get rid
of a large proportion of typhoid
fever. and of a still greater per-
centage of the intestinal dfs-
eases which kill so mary chill
dren every summer. It's a pref
ty bad citizen who won't buy
screens to save the lives of ba-
bies.

MONEY IS NEEDED To
HELP SECURE BIG
TRAINING CAMP
Every Citizen Should Help
The Committee That
Is Doing Work

There is not a citizen of Cobb
County that will not benefit finar-
cially by the location of the great
Military Training Camp at Kenne-
saw Mountain, but you can't get
something for nothing. The com
mittee that has been working so
hard to secure this great project
finds that the expense is going to
be in the neighborhood of 81, goo
and they have requested the news
papers to start a campaign to raise
the money.
The Marietta Journal is glad to
do it's part by subscribing $500.
The reason for this expense is
that maps of the property will have
to be made, surveys furnished, a3d
a committee will have to visit the
war department at Washington to
press the claims for this site All
men who are working on it are per
fectly willing to devote all the time
necessary and pay their share of
the expense but it is not right to
let them pay it all.
1t is the opinion of those who
have been actively interested in
this movement that the Kennesaw
Mountain site has made the best
showing and strongest impression
of any site that has yet been shown
and some good strong work right
now will help clinch the argument.
Major Winston, who examined the
site for the government last week,
showed in actions more than words
that he was very strongly Impress
ed with the location, and you know
factions speak louder than words.
The committee is going to place
subscription list at the follow
ing places:
The First National Bank,
The Marietta Trust & Banking
Co.
The Merchants & Farmers Bank,
Hodges Drug Co.,
Sans Drug Co.,
Griffith's Drug Co.,
Collins Bros. Drug Co.
Every citizen is requested to call
at any of these places and subscribe
what he is willing to give and paw
the money on the spot. This will
save the trouble of collecting the
amounts subscribed and the commit
tee is going to have plenty to do
ely. If more than is needed is Sc
cured, which we hope will be the
case, as it will show a fine spirit,
the money that is left after the
campaign is finished will be paid
back to subscribers, pro rata, ac
cording TO what they paid in. Tie
committee is doing everything in It's
power to secure the camp and it is
the least you can be expected to do
to contribute some help financial
ly.
The names of subscribers will be
published every week
Come on, now folks, Marietta
don't do things half way any more.
