Clean Up the Place

Flies are a pest that can be con.
trolled if you will practice a few pre-
ventive measures.
A. Haul out and spread the manure
once a week.
B. Treat the manure with borax or
white hellebore to kill the maggots and
eggs.
1. Borax is sprinkled over the ma
nure at the rate of ten ounces to
eight bushels of n Pour two or
three gallons of water over the manure
after the borax has been added. This
will cause the boraX to be carried into
the anure. Be sure and sprinkle the
outer edges, for this is where the mag
gots gather before going into the next
stage of development.
2. Dissolve one-half pound of white
hellebore in ten gallons of water and
sprinkle thoroughly yer the manure.
3. If it is inconvenient to remove the
manure each week, it may be treated
with the borax and hellebore in the
stables. Calculate the amount of ma
nure in stable and use them in the
same proportion as above.
4. Make or buy tlytraps early in the
and use them all the time dur.
ing the fly season.

Now's the Time to Be-
gin Your Summer War on
Dirty and Deadly Housefly

The best means of getting rid of flies
is never to let them get a foothold,
according to W. w. SWEET of the Mis-
souri, agricultural experiment station.
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 1t can develop
is cleaned up every five or eight days,
the flies supply will be cut off. If 1t
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
1t has been sprinkled on, 1t should be
washed through the pile with water.
Half a pound of hellebore which has
been allowed to stand in ten gallons of
water from ten to twenty-four hours
may be sprinkled at the rate Of a gal
Ion to the cubic foot on the filth to
be treated.
In either barns or houses f1ytraps
help a little, and a great deal Of relief
may be obtained by mixing half a
pint of milk, half a pint of water and
two tablespoonful of formalin Gao
per cent formaldehyde). Stronger mix
lures have so much formalin 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.
P%yrethrum powder is good, and the
commercial %repellants are generally
preferable if they do not cost too much.
Homemade mixtures of either n 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 "fy 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 ave a life, too.

FLIES AND FEVER

Ninety per cent of the So
called "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 S of traps
and swatters.
