TWENTY-FIVE CENT TRAP
CATCHES MILLIONS OF FLIES

| Fly traps may be used advantage
ously in decreasing the number of
flies. There are many kinds of traps,
but practically all are made on the
same general plan The bait IS plac-
ed below the trap, and the fly, in
leaving, crawls or flies upward into
| the cage through small opening in
the cone-shaped inner base.
! A light, effective, simple and mex
pensive trap for catching the house
fly may be easily constructed if these
directions are carefully foilowed:,
Make a circular base about one
foot in diameter from a board one
half or one inch thick. With a key
hole or compass-saw cut out the main
central part of this base, leaving a
rim Of about two inches in width.
/ Make top piece with the same out
side diameter as the base, leaving it
entire. Nail these about two feet
apart with four TO eight laths or
other thin strips of wood, forming a
cylindrical frame. Countersink the
laths even with the outer edges of
both The top and base. This will al
low the wire screen to fit snugly
around the edges Of the top and bot
tom. CCver the sides CT this cylin-
drical frame with ordinary screen
wire. Mosquito netting viii do for
temporary trap. Care must be TAX
en- to make the edges hy-tight. Then
make a cSne-ghaped inner base of
ordinary screen wire TO fit the hola
cut in the wooden base. A small
opening about one-quarter inch in di-
amcter should be left at the top of the
cone so that the fiies will have easy
access to the cage. Tao, this wire
conc srugly in tic hole cut in the
wooden base SO hat it extends up in-
to the cage abcut eight inches or
more. Now fasten flom four to
eight rails or gcrows into the bot
tom board to held the trap abau.
cne-half inch above the surface. Tais
space is sufficient FOR the entrance ct
the flies TO the bait whicl. i rl&e.d
underneath the trap.
This trap Should ret cos rlorc than
70 cents, nor require more than one
hour to build. Larger traps may Be
built IN The saaac way.

and she appeared to be on the road
to recovery. Since reaching here he
has received word each day as to
her condition, and he hopes to be able
to bring her home by next Sunday.
Theo. Hodge and family arrived in
Pennington last Friday, and will
make this city their future home. Mr..

tos. Besides himself, Mr.. Hodge will
keep -four expert statesmen in the
field. He has had extensive expert
ence in his line of business, and has |
made success of it. He came from
Campbell, Mo-, and should be well
coined to Pennington.
