CLEAN Up THE STABLE FLY

Have you ever tried to sleep on q
hot summer night when just one mos
quito had crcpt through the window
Green Imagine your state Of mind
Il that single mosquito were multiplied
by 100 and you had your hands tied!
That sensation, according to the
Bureau Of Etomology. United State
Department Of Agriculture, is some
thing comparable with what a horse
mule or COW endurCs when the stable
rs Is present in great numbers.
The stable fly greatly resembles thc
ordinary horse fly but for the lane
with which he is armed. It is known
that he carries disease from infected
animals TO healthy ones, and there q
some ground for belief that the insect
aids the spread of spinal meningitis
among human beings.
The eggs Of the fly are laid in loose.
warm straw heaps and piles Of stable
refuse. 4 plague OF flys always starts
from these sources, and the control of
the pest is best managed by scattering
the straw early in the spring before
the beginning OF warm weather. and
blowing il under. or burning it when
the former method can not be applied
Stable refuse should be scattered at
regular intervals of one week or less
throughout the season, starting with
early spring. In this way the first
generation Of the pest is destroyed and
plague ayerted. A recent publica-
ton Of the department. Farmers Bull
etin 1897, gives in detail the life his
tory of the stable fly, methods of its
control, and certain facts concerning
the amount Of damage done by the in
sect.

Being wise, she just decided on getting her amuse- ment somewhere else, and on spend ing her dollar where she could get something for it.
 "I believe that we can get les son from her. Instead of buying eggs, buying frying sized chickens this spring, buying butter and milk and vegetables and canned goods of various kinds, we can begin right now and supply ourselves with all or some of these.
 "A group of five or six women Tn any community can get together and among themselves work out plans foI grown-in- n-the-community living. A dozen such groups of women ano girls in a county bent on conserving canning all surplus fruits anc vegetables can keep in that county the several thousand dollars the mer chants send each year into othel states for canned goods.
