PEsTFEROUs VISITORS.

It may be that Albuquerque people
now engaged in regretting inability
to swat the mosquitoes that live in
swamp lands are forgetting to meet
the invasion of flies that will come
when hot sunshine warns up the
habitats and breeding places of the
pests,
Formerly flies and mosquitoes were
merely regarded as personal null
sances. Ii was disagreeable TO have
them buzaing and biting and singing.
But those who were fussy about such
a trifle were regarded as nervous and
lacking in self-control.
BY and by science established that
these insects are disease carriers. To
hold them down, therefore, becomes
one of the first principles of good
public health policy. A comparative
ly small expenditure in measures of
insect prevention. will save great
harm to the nation through sickness
and loss of working power,
1t was amazing how people used to
suffer from these pests without much
complaint. Those who kent horses
were particularly subject to them.
stable refuse always attracts swarms
of flies that prey ON the families of
the neighborhood. Occasionally the
housewife, stung TO desperation, would
organize fly-drving campaigns to eX-
ne the pests outdoors. whence they
would return the next time the screen
doors opened. Fly-traps and sticky
paper would not begin to keep the
pests down.
This year, owing to warm winter,
it is expected that the fly and mosqui-
to pest will be exceptionally trouble
some. Householders should see that
breeding places are kept cleaned up.
1t is particularly important to keep
garbage pals covered.
The fact that the family horse has
in so many cases given place to the
automobile tends to remove many fly

stables and COW sheds. The time will
probably come when it will be re-
quired that such accumulations be
treated SO as to prevent insect breed
ing Meanwhile every householder in
Albuquerque should contribute to
public safety by plenty of fly-traps
and screening, and destroying garbage.

STRIKE OF COAL
OPERATORS TO BE
CALLED NOV. 1ST.

PHILADELPHIA operators
and miners of the Central Competi-
tive field which embraces Wetsern
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and IL
l1nois, came to a complete break
when the joint wage conference
started more than two weeks ago at
Buffalo was adjourned Saturday
without an agreement having been
reached.
John L. Lewis, acting president OF
the United Mine Workers Of America,
on leaving for his office in Ind1anap-
oils, announced that Immediately
upon his arrival there he would
issue an order for a strike OF
more than 225,OoO soft coal min
ers effective November 1. This an
nouncement followed the rejection by
the committee Of operators Of the
miners demands formulated at the
recent convention at Cleveland and
which provided, among other things
for a so per cent increase in wages,
a six-hour day, five days work a
week, time and half for overtime
and double time for Sundays and hol-
idays.
The session here was an adjourn
ed meeting after the conference at
Buffalo had resulted in a deadlock.
The operators from first to last main
tanned they could not agree to the de-
mands of the Cleveland convention
and the miners declined to offer any
other proposition.
