The American railroad problem will never be finally solved unless all
the railroads are consolidated into comparatively few systems, say, hheen

no competition in the railroad world, and ought to be none, except the
competition of good service.

There are now pending before congress, and especially In the senate
u great many bills which have for their purpose the modification of the
transportation act of 1920 in vital respects. The farm organizations
and the farmers have my deepest sympathy because l know the. hardships
through which they re passing demand the repeal of what IS known as
Section 15-A.
This section provides that the interstate commerce commission shall
consider transportation from a national standpoint; that we shall no lon
ger attempt to regulate our common carriers by reference to the particular
condition Of any specific carrier.
Some of the best people of the country impute to 1t all the Ills which
can flow from the most vicious legislation. But if can prevent it, Sec
ton 15A will not be repealed.

WERE PLEASED.

The following from the Interna-
tional Falls Press speaks glowingly
of the Ely ball team. The Press
says:
lone of the finest teams that fans
of this locality have ever seen play in
this city crossed bats with The locals
at the park last Saturday and Sundey
and administered a beating of II to
in The Saturdays game and a
"whitewash" of A to 0 in the Sabbath
day game.
Saturdays game might well be
called the Comedy of Errors the
locals considerably weakened by the
lack of some of the regular players,
seeming unable to handle :he ball,
resulting in errors too numerous to
mention. The only redeeming fea-
ture was the circuit swat by Bailey.
Spectacular playing was done by
the visitors, who succeeded in connect
ing for two home runs, one right
after the other, and who also demon
strated baseball as higher art.
Sundays game was considered by
all in attendance everything that base
ball should be. Prodinsky, star pi;ch-
er of Virginia, did the hurting for the
locals and two out of town pla YES
added increased strength 20 the line
up. The visitors, as in Saturdays
game, secured tive home runs, using
bat of enormous size and which
might have done credit to any wagon
as a tongue.
"The locals, although securing a
few scattered hits, were unable to
score. The members of the Ely team
have played together, with hardly any
variation in the lineup, for The past
five years and are credited with Win

The Motive is to Serve.

When a buddy with the American
Legion emblem in his bu.tonhole
calls at your home and inquiries if
former veteran lives there, do not
think that he is after a donation.
What he wants is to assist comrade
of the great war in any way possible.
The Legion Service Census Camp
align is in full swing throughout Min
nesota. Every city, town and town
ship is being canvassed to locate
veterans with a view to adjusting any
claims they may have against the
Government, such as reinstating
lapsed insurance, obtaining vocational
training, back pay, allotments, COM
pensation, medical treatment, victory
medals, discharge papers, and so on.
Many veteran has a wrong concep-
ton of the American Legion and it's
purpose. 1t is the earnest wish of
every we'll informed Legionaire to
give reliable information about the
organization. Every little outfit
wants to stand right with the buddies
its members fought with and respect,
every live Legionaire wants to see
the Legion grow and prosper, so that
it may be strong enough to render
still better service to country and
comrades. The questionaires carried
by the Legion Service Census workers
are confidential. No buddy need
hesitate about answering the inquir-
les contained therein. Your buddies
of the Legion are at your service.

last Sunday. The attendance was
good and fine meeting resulted at
which Mr.. Neubauer spoke of the adj
visibility of better stock and coopera-
ton with the county agent in matters
of interest to this section of the
county. Arrangements were also
made for meeting some time this
month at which Clarence Johnson,
assistant county agent, is to be pres

ionstrated with dynamite and picric
acid and in August a poultry culling
demonstration will be staged. DIR.
Thompson was a. the meeting and
spoke to the farmers on the better
stock proposition which is bearing
fruit in the district about Ely. Grad
ed and pure bred cattle are being put
in and in a few years the stock and
milk products will be greatly i'm
proved. Those interested are cor
daily invited to attend the meetings,
dates for which will be announced

HEALTH BULLETIN
CITY OF ELY
by OWEN w. PARKER. Md.
Health Commissioner

The following is the third section
of the article written by William A.
Riley, Division of Entomology and
Economic Zoology, entitled Glow to
Fight the Dangerous House Fly"
How to Attack Breeding Places.
Preventive measures consist of re-
moval or destruction of breeding mat
erials, and killing of the larvae in
such substances.
AS has already been pointed out,
by far the greater number of house
flies develop in horse manure. In
addition, they utilize to less extert
cow, pig and chicken droppings, hui
man excrement, garbage and decay
ing plant materials. The logical
point of attack is, then, against ac-
cumulations of these substances.
Manure Should be Removed Daily.
Manure should be carefully collect
ed, hauled out, and spread out thinly
on the fields daily, or at least every
other day. This procedure not only
reduces the possibility of fly breed
ing but conserves the fertilizing value
of the manure. Such disposal of
manure is comparatively simple in
places where expense and time are
secondary to comfort and safety.
The writer is we'll aware that the
problem appears quite different to
the practical farmer whose every
minute seems already demanded for
the maintenance Of his place. Yet
many practical farmers of Minnesota
and elsewhere are finding that they
are getting full returns not only in
comfort ad safety but in increased
value of the fertilizer. The seeming
impossibilities will appear less and
less as the dangerous nature of the
house fly is realized.
In towns and villages the manure
may be placed in tight, dark bins day
by day and removed twice a week.
Flies that breed out in the meantime
will seek the light and can be caught
and destroyed by placing small traps
over several holes in the top of the
bin.
Compost heaps should be made as
far as possible before June or after
October LIST, as it is between these
dates that fly breeding is at is height
community INGcoGo ~ AAAih~
mate Flies.
However much the individual may
do to protect himself and his house
hold against the house fly, practical
elimination of the nuisance can come
only through community action. Agi-
tation and efficient organization ere
necessary to bring this about.
Those ignorant of the dangerous
nature of these pests must be edu-
Gated but it is still more difficult to
arouse those who mentally accept the
facts but are too apathic. to act upon
them.
Begin early in the season. Enlist
the local newspaper, the health board,
and the school authorities.
Interest and educate the school
children and the public by means of
posters, talks, lantern slidesand movie
films. Of the latest several excellent
ones are available.
Insist on protection Of food and
drink in stores, restaurants, and dair-
les. Bring the matter to the atten-
ton of tradesmen and then patronize
those who care enough for the safety
OF the public to take all the precau-
tons in their power.
Keep everlastingly at it. D;I't re

ELIMINATE cUTWORMs.

Cutworms can be readily con-
trolled by the use of poisoned bait,
the United States Department of
Agriculture has demonstrated. This
is the way to prepare and apply
the poison:
To 1 bushel of dry bran add 1
pound of white arsenic or Paris
green and mix thoroughly into a
mash with A gallons of water, in
which has been stirred one-haf
gallon of sorghum or other cheap
molasses. This amount will be
sufficient to treat A to S acres of
cultivated crops. After the mash
has stood for several hours scatter
it in Jumps of about the size of
a marble over the fields where the
injury is beginning to appear. Put
it about the bases of the plants
which have been set out. Apply
the mash late in the day, so as to
have the poison in place around
the plants before night, when the
cutworms are active. Apply a
second time If necessary.
Cutworms destroy hundreds of
thousands, even millions, of dollars
worth Of crops every year through
out the United States. They es-
pecially attack tomatoes, cabbage,
lettuce, and other vegetables that
have been started under glass and
transplanted. Cutworms sometimes
appear in great numbers in the
spring and early summer, and fire.
quently do severe injury before
their ravages are noticed.
Their method of attack is to cut
off the young plants near the
ground. They are of large size
and are voracious feeders, capable
of destroying many plants in a
single night. Often they cut down
more than they can devour.
