GREEN BOTTLE FLY MENACE II
LIVESTOCK

GREEN BOTTLE FLY MENACE TO
LIVESTOCK
Hog paralysis and limberneck seem
to be related diseases and to be spread
by the green bottle fly, known to
science as Lucilia Caesar, according to
results of Investigations recently an
nounced by r. Adams butcher and
Stanley Dean Wilkins of the Minnesota
Experiment Station. University Farm,
St. Paul. Mr.. butcher and Mr.. wilkins
in attempting to trace the causes of linn
herneck in poultry were able to produce
limberneck by feeding cockerel on the
larvae Of green bottle flies which had
fed on the head Of hog which had died
Of paralysis of the hind quarters.
Moreover, they were able to produce
paralysis Of the hind quarters Of guinea
pigs by feeding them larvae from q
chick which showed limberneck SYM
toms. Numerous other attempts to pro-
duce limberneck SYMPTOMS by feeding
spoiled canned vegetables, spoiled
meats, the larvae Of other flies. and so
on, failed.
Suspicion. therefore, attaches to the
green bottle fly as q pest which manu-
features poisons, or at least Transmits
poisons. from hogs which have died of
paralysis on chickens which have died
Of limberneck.
Until possible further Investigations
may refute this fly theory, the only safe
thing for farmers and others to DO in
order to protect their livestock and
possibly even human health. is to burn
or bury deeply all carton. The theory Is
just another argument for most careful
farm and home sanitation.

MONEY TIGHTNESS.

Money is not tight, it has forsaken
its old ways of talking, for the old
adage is, Money Talks. Now it "jes'
lays low and says nothing" Money
is plentiful but it roosts in the peck
cts where it was last week. When
prices begin to fall prospective buy
ers wait for further falling, and
hold money off the mart till prices
drop further. Meanwhile, those who
have articles to sell get anxious, and
excitable ones get uneasy and rush
their goods out at half prices or low
err. On the other hand, when prices
are advancing, everybody wants to
buy before goods get still higher, so
trade goes on rapidly.
There's no lack Of confidence now
money is just waiting for the tobog-
gan in prices to reach the lowest
level, then money will talk.

EPWORTH LEAGUE NOTES.
(Delayed.)

(Delayed.)
With a good attendance and a
splendid program the League seemed
to be on the boom last Sunday even
ing.
The subject, "The Church., cover
ed wide scope but was handled
nicely by the leader, Mrs. Baker. She
called on number of members for
parts, among whom were Doctor
Handy, Mr.. John Heck, Mr.. Paxton
Erwin and Miss Daisy White. All
gave interesting talks, but the one
given by the Doctor was unusual, be-
cause of its history and on account
of the fact that he related some good
points that not many people know Of
His subject, "The Origin and Growth
of the Church" was indeed one, that
but very few could handle.
Doctor Handy cited us to the fact
that Abel was the first to offer sacri-
flee to God, not in a church house,
but out in the open on a crude alter,
which goes to show that any group
of people gathered together for the
worship of God make up a church.
He showed further that there was
but one church with but one aim, and
stated that "All the various denomi-
nations were but branches of the one
Great Church, to suit the taste and
Municipalities of the different peo-
pie in the world" He followed the
church down thru the ages to its
present day activities. 1t was indeed
very interesting and any that missed
it have cause to regret.
With excellent music and the splen-
did efforts of Mrs. Baker the program
was an exceptionally good one and
enjoyed by every one present.
Within the next week or SO. the
eague is due to have some kind of
social event and according to here
say there will very probably be some
thing pulled off along about Hallaw
cen night.

The City's Indebtedness.

In last week S issue The journal published an ar
hcie on the Indebtedness of the city This article,
with certain additions, is reprinted in this issue
The journal finds little pleasure in making these
disclosures We make them simply because the pub
lie has been told the facts about the city s in
debtedness or the suits pending against the city in
the United States Court.
The news article shows that suits are now pending
against the City Of Marietta for unpaid notes amount
ing to $4,000 principal. The notes recte that they
are to bear interest after maturity.
AS stated in the news article one of the original
notes has been paid and interest on the original
notes up to some time during the current year but
$4,000 of the original notes are unpaid and still
drawing interest. The renewal notes of $4S OOO
maturing March |, 1919 have been drawing interest
since that date. Our readers can figure out for
themselves what the principal and interest amounts
to by now.
In addition to bearing interest after maturity the
notes recte the fact that the City shall pay all costs
of collection, including 10 per cent attorney s.
fees" With court costs and attorneys fees added
to the 100000 principal and accrued interest, our
readers well that if judgments are secured
the City will be liable for more than 100000
The Journal does not know what other debts the
City may The condition of the City's finances
however appears to The Journal to be such as would
stagger the average tax payer

Monday morning on the same Dixie
Highway two miles from Marietta
stood two Fords, each with its left
forewheel wrecked. Locked wheels
in head-on collision told the tale.
We know not who was to blame, pos
sibly no one seriously; but we infer
red that the speed fiend is not confin-
ed to Atlanta where daily accidents
happen. 1t ought to be against the
law for one to run more than 20
miles per hour on crowded highways.
Even that rate is dangerous when
the air is full of dust.

Board Of Lights and Water Works.

Some weeks ago our contemporary The Times
suggested that all departments Of the City govern
ment should make financial report to the people
The journal did not make the call but approved it.
We feel that the people have right to know the
exact condition of all departments of the City.
After The Times made this suggestion the Board
of Education promptly made statement which COW
cred all the transactions of the board for the past
year. That the statement of the Board of Educa
ton satisfactory to the people at large was an
indicated by the fact that overwhelming major
ity voted additional school tax of 20 cents on the
hundred dollars to be used by the Board of Educa
ton in improving the schools
The Mayor and Council also made statement
We regret to say their statement did not throw any
great degree of light the Cty's financial cond-
ton. Their statement, it seems to The journal
concealed more information than it gave. However
they did make a statement.
The Board of lights and Water Works made no
statement. Since the time report was asked for
the then acting Board of Lights and Water Works
have resigned and board has been elected
At least three years ago it reported that the
Citys lighting plant netting the City in the
neghborhood of $1,000 a month. About that time
the Board of Lights and Water Works sold all the
machinery in the plant that had been used when
operated DN steam III was reported at the time that
the amount received for this machinery was $4,000
or $4,000. Since that time light and water rates
have been raised twice, we believe. We have it. on
reliable authority, that the City's lighting plant
cleared $4,000 during the year 1919
If these reports are true, it would appear that the
profits from operating the light and water plants
during the years 1917, 1918 1919, have been more
than $4,000 The Journal thinks its readers would
like to know what this money has been spent for
1t is currently reported that auditor has been
working on the books of the Light and Water Board
and we presume statement is being prepared.
The Journal has been informed within the last
week that the Board of Lights and Water Works
within the last thirty days has borrowed several
hundred dollars, close to thousand in fact, to pay
operating expenses.
If the auditor who has been working the books
of the Light and Water Board is preparing state
ment for the public. The journal trusts this state
