SWAT THE EARLY FLY.

Soon the fly will be making his ad-
vent into our homes.
Much has been said nregard to
screening doors and destroying the
breeding places. All this is good, but
one of the surest campaigns against
the housefiy is to swat him on his first
arrival.
They seek some secluded place about
the home where they pass the winter
and are ready at the oncoming of
spring to emerge from their winter
quarters.
When they first come out they are
sluggish and easily swatted. One swat
ted at this period may save thousands
during the summer.
Doors and windows should be neatly
screened at all dwellings, and every
industrious farmer at this time should
haul out the manure accumulated
through the winter; but despite all
these there will come some flies in the
dwelling.
"A stitch in time saves nine" So
swat the early ny. j. B. f. in South
ern Agriculturist.
