Helena, Nov. 20-Advance In grant :

cording TO information just received
by Supervisor J. y. Seelv. or the Hell
ena forest. The decision was made by
Secretary Of Agriculture Houston in Il
letter addressed to the American Ma
tional Livestock association and the
National Wool Growers association.
The interior secretary has found
that the fees charged for grazing per-
mits in the national forests are still
below the real value. Minute inves-
LEGATIONS in this direction were made
last summer by forestry officials and
special agents of the interior depart
ment.
Secretary Houston refers to the
many changes to which the United
States has been subjected through the
war and calls attention to the need of
and wool. However, it has not been
determined whether the grazing rates
Will be raised before the war ends
The matter of granting five or ten
year leases for grazing purposes, is
also discussed by the secretary. He
feels that this question likewise should
not be decided at present as the long
term leases might interfere with the
government policy that might result
through economic conditions in the
near future.

1t to hold on closely. When 1t lights
on wet materials these glands are
inactive and there is very little at
traction to the Nth. AS a result OF
this, when the first microscopical
examinations were made there was
some doubt thrown on the theory OF
there being danger of flies carrying
disease germs. But nicer laboratory
methods have demonstrated to us
that Notwithstanding nature has
modelled the flys foot to protect the
insect against carrying undue weight
during it's flight, it does carry the
micro organisms of disease ana
should be guarded against with the
greatest of care.
First, you must not forget the
fact that flies seek filthy places from
which to obtain their food.
Second, that they take advantage
of the civilization of man to protect
themselves against the weather, both
in regard to dampness and tempera-
ture. 1t Is for these last reasons
that I venture to again refer. to the
fly during this most dangerous sea-
son.
"It is a singular thing how flies
will obtain entrance to homes that
seem to be thoroughly screened. The
only reason appears to be that tney
are ever following man, so that when
he enters his home they enter with
him. For those who can afford 1t,
it would be we'll to have a screened
Vestibule where you can enter, close
the outer screen door and then look
to see whether or not flies have gain
ed admission with you, and If so, Kill
them before you enter the main door
of your home"

Carlisle Officer Has Good
Record in u. S. Army

Carlisle, Pa. Aug. 20. - On a
short furlough before going to Little
Rock, Ark, where he will be in
charge of a company of the new
national army, Captain Frank f.
Bobb is visiting his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Clarence Bobb, here. He is a
nephew of the late Colonel John G..
Bobb, formerly of Harrisburg.
Captain Bobb, although but Sc
years old, has an interesting army
history and rose from the ranks to
the position which he now holds.
He enlisted in Company G. of the
Eighth Pennsylvania Volunteers and
served during the Spanish American
War and later enlisted in Company G
of the Twenty-first United States In
fantry and served for five years and
ten months in the Philippines. He
was also in the Ninth and Second
United States Infantry, during this
latter enlistment being stationed in
Hawaii, and was later in charge of
the prison guard at Alcatraz, Cal.
He was with the Twentieth Infantry
on the Mexican border. For the past
three months he has been at Little
Rock, Ark, training men for officers,
and returns there with the rank of
captain in the United States Army to
drill the new citizen-soldiers.

FEW OPPOSING
WAR INSURANCE
Administration Forces Seek
Early Passage of Bill to
Protect Soldiers

Washington. Aug. 20. Admin
stration forces will make every ef-
fort to secure an early passage in
Congress of the bill providing for
war risk insurance. With more and
more members lining up to the sup
port of the measure, it is thought II
can be rushed through with only
slight opposition.
The chief objection raised by in
surance men who are interested in
seeing the bill defeated is that 1t is
undemocratic in that it permits SOL
diers of independent means to pur-
chase insurance not accessible to
others. Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo has answered this by stat
ing that the highest premium will
amount to about SS a thousand.
He has also urged that the United
States, in passing the draft law, took
the obligation to see that families OF
men in service be provided for. This,
he says, is a duty which the Gov
ernment would be very lax and un-
fair in failing to observe.
Mr.. McAdoo attributes many of
the demanded exemptions to the fact
made properly to care for the de-
pendents of the soldiers. He points
out that no man can be expected
to proffer his services if he does
not know that during his absence,
and in event of his death or disa-
bility, his loved ones will be pro-
tected from want.
Handled on Firm Basis
1t is further Surged that any OBJ
lection to the act on the grounds
that it is not based on sound bust
ness principles is absurd, inasmuch
as the insurance end will be handled
after the plan of the large insur-
ance companies, except that no load
ing of premiums for office expenses
will be charged and the mortality
ia ables, without reference to the
added danger during war times, will
be used. This, of course, means that
the business will prove expensive to
the Government. The estimates of
officials of the Treasury Department,
however, show that less money would
be spent than under the pension
system.
his fact can be accounted for by
the better method of distribution Of
fered by the plan. While in some
cases the amount paid to an injured
soldier or to his family in case of
death will be smaller than pensions
would amount to, in the case of large
families, a sum is to be added for
each member, so that they will re-
ceive a far greater income.
Mr.. McAdoo characteriZes as un-
just discrimination any opinion that
would prevent soldiers or sailors
from being able to purchase insur-
ance at normal rates. He does not
blame the companies for holding out
for high premiums. but he main
tains that it is the duty of the Gov
ernment to see that the men who
are called to the front are not de-
prived of the security of their de-
pendents in case of death.

KEEP FLIES OUT
SAYS DIR. DIXON
Commissioner of Health De-
clares That This Is the
Most Dangerous Season

Flies want to get indoors more
kept out with even greater care than
in the early summer because this Is
the season of the year when they are
most likely to spread disease, is the
advice given by DIR. Samuel G. Dixon,
the State Commissioner of Health.
DIR. Dixon warns that flies carry
more disease germs than any in
sects with which people come into
contact and he urges redoubled vlg-
ilance against them.
The Commissioner says:
This is the season when flies with
their domestic habits begin to seek
admission to the homes of man
This will be particularly noticeable
as the fall rains come and the nights
become cold. During the warm days
they have been out in the open, liv-
ing their customary life on refuse

them such dangerous insects II
