"FLYGRANdS'' ISSUED BY
HEALTH DEPARTMENT

"Get the flies before they get you
says one Of number of 'Flygrams', a
series of warnings against the ubiQuit-
GUS fly, issued by the health depart
ment.
Here are some more:
It is short haul from the garbage
can to the dining table via the fly
route.
"Flies in the dining room usually
precede nurses in the sickroom.
1T costs less to buy screen door
than to get sick and lay off month.
"Flies are a disgrace They Indicate
nearby filth.
How long will you continue to let
the fly eat at your table?
Lice are. accidents, f1eas are nui-
sance, bedbugs are disgrace, but flies
are householders own fault.
DO not buy fruit, meat, groceries,
etc, where flies are tolerated. If the
flies beat you to it, let them have it.
''The fly is a home wrecker. De-
stroy it. B
when the fly comes in the window,

The warnings come with the month
that IS supposed to be the hottest Of
the year, and necessarily the time
when the fly is not only most numer-
Gus. but also most dangerous

STACK OR SHOCK
FOR GRAIN-WHICH?

Stacking and stack threshing of grain
are often advisable in spite of the fact
that the cost is from 10 to 20 per cent
higher than the cost of shock thresh-
ing, says F. w. Peck, University Farm.
st. Paul. From five to eight minutes
more is required to stack and stack
thresh a bushel Of wheat than to shock
thresh the same amount The differ
ence for oats is from two to three min
utes in favor of shock threshing. Prac--
teal reasons, however, have to be con-
sidered
The farmer gains by stacking because
he distributes his labor over a longer
period, leaving his threshing to be done
later, when shock threshing, owing to
weather conditions, lack of machines,
or. scarcity of relatively high-priced
labor, would have been inadvisable or
impossible.
Stacking protects the grain, though
little evidence of the gain here is avail
able.
Stacking preserves the straw much
better for feeding and bedding live
stock, and stack threshing can usually
be more probably done near the barns
than can shock threshing.
If, again, community has not
enough machines to thresh the grain in
a short time, stacking as measure Of
protection and safety is advisable.

FEEDS LIKELY TO BE
SCARCE; SAVE STRAW

In many parts of Minnesota the hay
crop is short this year In other
places the cold wet weather has held
back the corn crop and it is entirely
possible that we may not have a large
supply of rough feed this fall. While
straw from the grains is not usually
considered desirable livestock rough
age, it may be used in combination
with other foodstuffs to very good adj
vantage. Dat straw especially is val
liable feed. Barley straw is relished
by some classes of stock and can be
fed without objection Straw is much
more palatable and nourishing if the
grain is cut when the straw is in the
right condition and if the straw is
properly preserved by good shocking
and good stacking. Where the straw
is wanted for feed it would be better
to stack the grain and delay the
threshing until October or later. as the
straw keeps better in the grain stack
than III the straw stack. Pains should
be taken in stacking the straw also to
get it up off the ground well and so to
shape the stack that the straw will
not wet in'' seriously. When hay
sells at So and SIS per ton, straw is
easily worth 81 or S. per ton for feed.
when there is shortage Of roughage
1t may be worth much more than that.
This year when the attempt is being
made to save every possible kind Of
foodstuff it would be well to give spec.
lal attention to the straw crop. If it is
not needed for feed, it will make ex-
cellent bedding and fertilizer for the
fields A ton of straw contains as
much fertilizing value as a ton of
fresh barn manure. Andrew Boss.

to Germany or may have been duped
by clever German agents. Absolutely
no proof Of such d 'sleak" has ever
been produced, and state department
officials always have frowned on even
the suggestion.
There is possibility also that Ger
man agents may have sent secret code
messages, hidden in commercial and
personal cables, via the Pacific cables
to the orient and thence to agents in
Russia, whence communication with
Berlin has been comparatively simple
After discussing all other possible
routes, including that via Buenos
Ayres, persons discussing the matter
always come back to the likelihood
that the channel Of communication en-
ployed by Germany is the cable mes
sage sent in secret code to agents in
neutral countries most accessible to
the German frontier.
Both military and naval experts are
agreed that nothing which they have
seen published regarding the move
ments of troops to France could have
been of any real service to Germany.
Few newspapers even limited at troop
movements. No newspapers limited at
the time of departure or the port OF
embarkation.
Every German spy and secret agent
in any Atlantic port whence the troops
sailed knew about their departure.
There was no secret about it.
Uniforms Are All Ready.
Every man called to the colors under
the selective draft will find his uniform
ready to be donned. There is to be no
shortage Of clothes, tents nor supplies.
This has been made possible through
cooperation between the committee on
supplies Of the Council of National De-
Tense and the quartermaster's depart.
ment at a saving to the government
and without increasing prices to the
individual. When the wheels turn in
the great army lottery Uncle Sam will
be ready for the soldiers.
Arrangements have been perfected
whereby every national guardsman
will be supplied with his full outfit
before he leaves his state, and every
youth mustered in will be provided as
soon as he reaches his training camp
julius Rosenwald, chairman Of the
committee on supplies. said:
Through doing away with the sys-
tenn Of competitive bidding In the open
market we have been able to place con-
tracts for uniforms and equipment at
prices varying somewhat In different
localities. but nearly always at fig
ure below that which the private
wholesale buyer would have to pay,
giving only fair margin Of profit to-
the manufacturer
Through personal conferences with
the manufacturers the market has re.
NAMED comparatively steady. eliminat-
ing the dangers Of price imitation
which big government project usual
ly brings when bids are advertised In
the open market The result has been
not only big saving to the govern
ment in it's supply contracts, but the.
prices which the general public has
had to pay have not been materially
Increased as a result Of the govern
ment's purchases"

ton with Berlin. demonstrated clearly
to officials that 1t is possible so to ar
range secret codes as to make detec-
ticn next to impossible.
Such work requires great deal Of
time and involves preliminary COM
munication between the sender and re-
ceiver. Yet it was done successfully
many times before the navy depart
ment took over the operation Of both
stations. Even after that time many
secret messages got by the censor and
the experts who did the actual work Of
operating the radio apparatus.
'sMOther is dead" was a favorite
message of the secret agents. Other
seemingly innocent communications
got by Tor time. It was long sus-
pected that German submarine COM
manders in British waters were warn
ed Of the sailing Of the Lusitania by
some such innocent radiogram.
It has been suggested more than
once that the official representatives
