Fly Control Depends on Com

While the logical time to fight
house flies is early in the spring be.
fore the pests have become numer-
Gus, effective work may be done
thruoUt the fly season. Leonard
Haseman of the University of Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture men
tons the following points which
will be helpful in combating flies.
The three important points to be
kept in mind in planning a CAM
paien are: the swarmS of flies must
be kept down; they must be kept
from coming in contact with germ
laden materials: and foods in the
home and on the market must be
protected from them. Flies breed
largely in stables and in manure
piles Consequently, stables must
be kept free from Accommodations of
manure Breeding places, particu-
larly the manure pile. should be
treated to kill the fly larvae One
pound Of commercial bor5x will
treat l6 bushels of fresh horse ma.
nure Community effort is neces.
sary for efficient control. but farm.
ers especially can do effective work
by individual effort
Persons interested in house fly
control will find suggestions for

lment Urges
Training.
Emergency

Officials of the United States gov
eminent have emphasized the i'm
pCrtance of maintaining the supply
of scientifically and technically
trained men Their recommenda
tons are especially applicable to
the farmer Since the army will
take large number of the aericul-
tural students and young men who
work on farms, it is especially i'm
portant that those who are not old
enough 10 enter the army receive
training that will not only enable
them to fill the places which have
been made vacant but will enable
them to become more efficient
producers.
Many of the boys under conscrip-
ton age have not received the pre-
limlnary training which is neces-
sary for them to eater four-year
college course Many others can
not be spared from home durins
the nine months in the year when
the course is offered Spring, sum
mer and fall are their busiest sea-
sons Any training which they re-
celve must be obtained during the
winter.
The University of Missouri Col.
lege of Agriculture has made pro-
vision for such boys. A short
course is offered during Novem-
Der and December. January and
February. This course has been
especially adapted to the Conven.
fence and needs of busy farmers
and their sons,
A recent summary of the ages of
students VINO have attended this
course during the last three wears
indicates that most Of them are I'M
der the age required by the army.
Of the 7O5 short course students
Ala or 5S7 per cent were under
conscriptlon age, Twenty-seven or
80 per cent were above conScrip-
ton age In view of national con-
ditlOnS it has been suggested that
an even larger number of men and
boys outside the COnscrption age
limits attend the short course this
year. BY attending the course these
men and boys can become more
efficient producers and thus be
more able to fill the positions of
those men who have been called to
the cOlors
P NJ, Brandt, superintendent of
short courses, estimates that ex-
penses need not be more than $40 a
term. The average last year was
S52 This included books, board.
room and fees 1t did not include
railroad fare and incidentals which
will vary considerably with differ
ent students.

Milk One Of Cheapest and Best
Summer Foods.

SouihusA SS
(By DR.. M. P. Ravenel of the De-
partment Of Preventive Medicine
of the University of Missouri)
Columbia, Mo. July Is. Foods
are not cheap or expensive accord
ing to the price paid for them. but
according to the food value which
we obtain for a given amount of
money. One food which is widely
used but much understood is milk.
1t is one of two complete natural
foods known. and is. all things con
sidered, the most perfect food
which we have
1t can be substituted largely for
eggs aud meat. especially during the
summer time. Even at ten cents
or eleven cents a quart it is cheap
er than eggs or meat, and will
supply all the food elements con-
tanned in these articles. One quart
of milk contains $40 food units.
Ii takes eight eggs to supply the
same amount of food units. SO that
even at thirty cents a dozen eggs
are twice as expensive as milk
Milk contains ali the constituents
necessary 1t has prOteins which
repair tn waste and build up the
body. 1t has fats and sugar which
act as fuel. 1t has minerals in the
proper amount. and in addition to
all this it contains those substances
called vitamines which are essen
tial for our noUrlshment.
When we compare it to meat
we will again fin that it is much
cheaper Only one half of the meat
w ich we buy can b. used as food
There is great waste in the matter
of bones, S4H, tat. etc Milk is an
especially good SIMMER food.
Skinned min aud buttermik
are also most valuable foods, and
should not be thIU~n away They
contain all the essentials of per.
feet food except the fat. and this
can be supplied from some other
source. The artificial buttermiIks
are as a rule, cleaner and more
palatable than the old fashioned
buttermilk. though ii this is vel
made and handled in cleanly
matter il is an excellent. palatable
and nutritious food. especially val
liable during the warmer months
A slight amount of sOuring does not
injure its food value, and makes ii
more palltable for many people.

A TRAMP'S TESTIMONY.

A tramp asked for a drink in
a saloon. The request was grant
ed, and when in the act of
drinking the preferred bevQPge
one of the young men prS ent
exclaimed:
Stop Make us speech
1t is a poor liquor that doesn't
loosen a mans tongue
The tramp swallowed down
the drink, and as the Liquor
coursed thru his blood, he
Strengthened himself and stood
before them with a grace and
dignity which all rage and dirt
could not obscure.
Gentlemen, he said, IT
look tonight at you and myself,
and it seems to me that l look
upon the picture of my blighted
boyhood. This bloated face was
once as handsome as yours; this
stumbling figure once walked as
proudly as yours, for / was a
man Of the world of men. /, too,
once had a home and friends and
position. / had wife. as beauti-
full as an artist s dream, but l
dropped the priceless pearl Of
her honor and respect into cup
of wine, and like Cleopatra, saw
it dissolve, then quaffed it down
in the Drumming draught. ] had
children as sweet and pure as
the flowers of spring, and saw
them fade and die under the
blighting curse of drunken
father. / had home where love
lit its flame upon the altar and
ministered before il, but I put
out the flame of love and hatred
reigned in its stead. / had as
pirations which scared ais high
as the morning star, but / broke
and bruised those beautiful forms
and strangled them, that
might hear the cries no more.
Today / am husband without q
wife, father without child,
a tramp without home, q man
in whom every impulse is dead.
All have been 7wallowedJ up IL
the maelstrom of drink"
The tramp ceased speaking
The glass fell from his nervouj
fingers and shattered into
thousand frogrants on the flood
The door was pushed open an
shut again, and when the grou
looked up the tramp was gone.
The above is a true incideJ
The tramp was once a promind +
