HOW DOLAND DID IT

While the citizens of Brookings are
asking how we can get new hotel
in this city it might be relevant to re-
late the method employed by the citi.
zens of Doland in Sphinx county, as it
appears in the current issue Of the
Sunshine State, the new boosting mag
azine of South Dakota.
They wanted a hotel and knew they
must have it. They had no CONNER
Cial organization and five or six Of
the good boosters got together and
raised a little fund amongst them
selves to defray the expenses of their
activities, named themselves the Wei
fare club and invited everybody in the
trade territory Of Doland to become a
member. They did not even take time
to fix a membership fee or collect mem
bership dues from the many people
who united with the club, but simply
went TO work to get hotel.
Arthur James OF the Nissen-James
Company was about to build garage
would build on the lots adjoining the
site for the hotel and would run his
building up two stories or more, con-
meet the upstairs with the hotel proper,
build the kind of rooms they wanted
and rent it at a reasonable rental
He then volunteered to help raise the
money for the hotel building and the
rest Of the story is a simple story of
intelligent energy and hard work plus.
The Welfare club appointed commit
tees to divide up the trade territory
and started to work selling stock in
the hotel. They convinced the farmers
that good hotel in the town would
add materially to the value OF their
farm lands and after they had some
Of the farmers interested, they called
a general meeting Of all the farmers
of the community and explained the
value that a good hotel would be to
each farm in the community and the
convenience and comfort that they
would enjoy through the erection of
the right kind of a hotel They
planned a splendid rest room and re.
firing room in the basement, which
was to be free to every woman and
the farmers saw the great benefit and
increased their subscriptions and 9TH
ers began 10 take stock and a project
that was started as a $4,000 invest,
| ment became a $4,000 and then a
$4,000 proposition and the farmers
took more than so per cent Of the
stock. So the building stands there

STABLE FLIES BEWARE
Attest: Herman :. Johnson,
CLARK

With the approach of that season
of the year when the stable fly IS
most numerous and its injury to live
stock most acute, it behooves the
farmer to prepare for meeting the
enemy and protecting his stock as
much as possible from its attacks. In
turn the farmer will be protecting
himself also, for aside from its an
noyance to human beings the stable
fly is suspected of playing an i'm
portant part in the carrying Of GER
tain diseases of man, notably infan-
tile paralysis.
The natural time for taking meas
ures against the stable fly is when
it is in its immature stages, and there
is good reason to believe that by
properly caring for substances In
which it breeds the insect may be
kept well under control. UnfOrtu-
nately, this is not always done, and
the fly reached its adult stage and
begun its work of injury before its
menacing presence is felt. 1t is then
very difficult to combat and guard
against.
Various means are used both for
protecting the animals and for ex-
terminating the flies. Among these
are traps. To be effective, however,
the trap should be especially designed
for this particular quarry, as it is
impossible successfully to capture the
adult stable flies by means of the
traps ordinarily used for the house
fly.
The adult stable fly resembles the
house fly, but is slightly broader and
feeds principally on the blood OF
animals. 1t breeds for the most part
in straw and mixtures Of straw and
manure. Straw stacks after thresh
ing should be watched, for when
these become wet the flies breed in
the decaying straw. 1t is this set OF
conditions which produces severe out
breaks Spraying animals with re

number of flies can be kept down
however, by proper care Of stable re
fuse and by carefully stacking ol
otherwise disposing of straw,
The United States department ot
agriculture, after a thorough inquiry
into the subject of trapping stable
flies, recomm ends as successful traI
one designed by Prof. C.. F. Hodge
which may be used in capturing adults
as they enter or leave the barns. Thi!
trap. it is said, is undoubtedly very
| effective under certain conditions, anc
has the advantage of catching no
only the stable fly but the house fly
and other undesirable species as well
| The trap is inexpensive and can b'
made by anyone with box, or boz
lumber, and screen wire, The frame
work OF the trap should be made 81

that it will fit snugly into the barn
window intended for its use. prefera-
bly, one on the brightest side of the
barn and close to the stock kept
within. The screen entanglements
are so arranged that flies either try
ing to leave the barn or enter it are
caught.
At the bottom of the trap is a
space about one fourth of an inch
wide running entirely across the
frame on both sides This crack ad
mits the flies beneath a peaked roof
or ridge Cf screen wire having holes
large enough for flies To go through,
punched along its top at Pinch inter
walls. The flies enter this space
ascend through the holes into the
upper chamber of the trap and are
unable 10 escape. The sides of the
trap, also. are made of ordinary
in two horizontal folds running across
the window, one near the bottom and
one near the top.
The ends of the screen are securely
tackled and series OF small holes
punched along the inner edge Of each
of the folds. The flies, in trying to
go in or out through the window,
crawl into the folds and enter the
chamber through the holes. They are
unable to escape, because on the IN
side the folds form a projecting ridge
that makes it next to impossible for
the fly to retrace his steps.
The trap is especially well adapted
to well-made barns where the flies do
not have numerous places for entrance
small barns in which animals are
kept more or less constantly than 10
large dairy barns where the cows
are brought in only at milking time.
Under the latter conditions the flies
enter the barns on the cows and many
remain on the walls until after the
cattle have been turned out.
If such barns are tightly closed
during the daytime and the windows
without traps darkened. practically all
the flies will catch themselves in try
ing to escape through the trap win
dow or windows.
In all instances the windows with
out traps should be darkened by hang
ing gunny sacks over them. This may
be done so as not to interfere with
the ventilation. The darkness and
the tapping Of the sacks in the wind
will drive the flies to the more at
tractive light of the windows equipped
with the traps.
