FEWER FLIES.

Tt is pleasing to learn from the
Department of Agriculture that
through the direct efforts of the
Department. the house fly has been
barred from 65, 1000 additional farm
homes in one year. Indirectly, nc
doubt the accomplishment has been
far greater. And every gain made
in keeping disease bearing insects
out of human habitations adds to the
health, efficiency and longevity of
the nation.
At the same time it may be OBJ
served that such work as time goes
on, becomes less necessary, because
conditions themselves are changing.
Flies are still pest on farms,
though by no means so great a pest
as they used to be. In cities, eX-
cept for the most ill-kept districts,
they seem to be growing almost
negligible.
Cleanliness itself has much to do
with the matter. Everywhere there
has been more emphasis on this, since
it became known generally that the
fly was an insect flourishing only
in a filthy environment. But per-
haps most of the gain comes auto
matically from the automobile.
Horse stables and streets kept un-
clean by the presence of horses pro-
vided ideal condition for the breed
ing of house flies. Not only do mo-
tor cars eliminate such encourage
nlent to fly propagation but, by
scattering oil everywhere, they wage
active war on the pest by killing
the eggs and larvae. This influ-
ence, too, is finding its way more
and more into the farmyards and
thus adding it's effect to that of
screens in protecting the farmhouse
The use of motor boats is helping, in
the same way, to eliminate mosquitoes
by the incidental oiling of bodies
of water-where they breed.
Credit these effects among hene-
fits of the gas engine that are sell
dom recognized.

Herbert Thomas, a Steam

The shot that struck the young

entirely through the member, leav-
ing a jagged wound. Two shots
were fired from the cOncealment,
one from a Winchester and another
from pistol, it is believed. The
first shot from the rifle struck
Thomas, while the second shot, pre-
sumably from a pistol, went wild of

DANISH THE PISTOL.

The sale of pistols absolutely iof-

ficial purposes, and that only I'M

recommended by the law enforce
ment committee of the American
Bar Association.
The committee in making its rec
concentrations at the San Francisco
convention pointed out that so pei
cent of the crimes in this country
are committed with the use of pts
tolls. 1t noted further that present
laws to prevent the carrying OF
deadly weapons are ineffective and
work to the benefit of the criminal
rather than the law-abiding citizen
Another point made is that crimes
OF violence are more prevalent IN
America than in any other civilized
country.

A FINISH PEACE.

1t is natural, perhaps, that capital
and labor both should desire the
Finish fight" which is discussed
informally everywhere, but never
mentioned in formal negotiations.
1t is even natural that they should
prefer it, at the present time, to
peace. Both sides have a feeling
that until it is over with, no peace
worth the name can be established.
They have been scrapping and Skin
mishing for years, first one side
and then the other winning a sfew
feet of the debatable ground. They
are tired of this futile fussing. What
they want is a solid decision that
no one can question For this no
one can blame them.
But does that decision have to
come by means of finish fight?
Both sides want the fight because
each thinks of it as resulting with
itself as winner. What of the loser?
VIII he humhIy accept his failure,
and stay put for the rest of his
days? Not if the writer knows any
thing about human nature or hui
man history. He win stay put only
so long as it takes him to rally and
get a little reserve strength, and
then he win go after another fin
ish fight of his own
The point is, no finish fight really
finishes anything. 1t just postpones.
Whereas finish peace, now,
might get somewhere.
If both sides could leave their in
terests in the hands of disinterest-
ed body, preferably a public body,
and if that body could make just
decision, allowing much leeway for
what the future might bring, and
both sides would accept the decision
that might really be the finish OF
all fights. Because while neither
side would win all il hoped for,
neither would either side be left the
loser. sore and beaten.
Moreover, and this is the biggest
thing each side would end respect
ing the other's rights, and each side
would end feeling that the prece-
dent OF peaceful adjustment had
been established.
War weakens everybody. Nobody
really wins. The World war should
have made that very clear. Both
sides spend their money and their
time, and whichever gets the terri
tory gets it only after a great drain
on its resources.
But in peaceful adjustments every
body wins. Everybody goes on

One Killed and Five
Hurt in Auto Wreck

Memphis, Aug. 21.-Joe Silver
field, 81, of Oseeola, Ark, was
killed, his aunt, Mrs. Strauss, of
Monroe, La, was probably fatally
injured, his cousin, Jack Strauss, is
thought to have sustained frac-
tured skull, and three other mem
bcrs of an automobile party were
slightly injured near Marion, Ark.
at 10 o'clock Friday night. The
tragedy occurred when> the car in
which the six people were driving
from Osceola to Memphis struck
the parapet Of concrete bridge
and overturned.
Joe Silverfield was not killed in
stantly, but died on the way to st.
Joseph's Hospital. According to the
meager accounts of the accident
which the excited and hysterical
survivors were able to give, he and
Mrs. Strauss were pinned beneath
the heavy car.
Attendants at st. Joseph's Hospi-
tal stated there is little hope of
MrS' strauss recovering. Her skull
was fractured, both legs broken,
and she sustained other broken
bones.
physicians thought that Jack
strauss had suffered a fractured
skull, but he could not stand an
examination to determine the ex-
tent of his injuries.
