Each family should inspect their
premises every Saturday morning
from now until late autumn and
keep the yard free of exposed water
in artificial containers. No water
no mosquitoes, no mosquitoes, no
dengue fever. This mosquito, the
stegomyia will not lay eggs in pools,
bitches and swamps like other mos
quitoes. 1t relies on you or your
neighbor to furnish its preferential
breeding place. Last summer you
supplied its wants, Are you going to
do the same this summer?

be here for the auction to be held at
the picric acid plant and there is little

Besides thirty-two bungalows there
is something like eighteen hundred
acres of land which will also go from

most fertile in the county. 1t is more
than likely that a number Of Bruins

block where it was born, Why should
it? When it has all it wants sup
piled right at home by US.
Its biting habits are different from
other mosquitoes. Instead of taking
its blood meal all at one time it
often takes several short drinks and
puts its bill only a short distance
into us for the very reason that. it
desires to make a quick getaway
when we decide to find out what is
biting US. And it nearly always
succeeds in its purpose. 1t is most
careful in its method of attack and
generally bites US either around the
ankles. or on the under side Of the
wrist. When most Of us try to slap
it Or the place where it was we reach
down or move our hand rapidly. This
causes an air current to move past
this mosquito which lets it known we
are after it. And We generally find
it has gone and we have slapped the
bite but not the stegomyia.
In our city we have say 10000
people and probably about 1000
homes or buildings To stop the
breeding of this particular mosquito
at the 1000 buildings we must ex-
anime our yards on one fixed day
each week to see that no object that
can catch and retain water is allowed
to exist. We must not leave or al
low water in pals or other containers
with water to remain in our houses
for a week or more at time.
If most Of the people in one block
keep the premises free of water con-
tainers and one or two families raise
these mosquitoes then the entire block
may be infested. Let us keep this
fact in mind. If we are pestered by
mosquitoes that bite us in our homes

the neighbors in our block are rails

que fever mosquitoes. In the summer

.LE PRINCE TELLS WHY
DENGUE FEVER EXISTS
Describes the Kind of Mosquito
Which Carries the Disease
How to Eliminate Pest

Of the dozens of kinds of mos
t.uJoes that are present in the Sou
taen States the steogwyia and ano-
rheles Tor malaria carrier) are of de-
cided economic interest, said DR.. j.
L. lie Prince, federal government
drainage expert, today.
The stegomyia is small mosquito,
he says, marked with black and white
stripes on both the body and legs
and is sometimes referred to as "the
little zebra-legged yellow fever car
rier." 1t is this house mosquito that
transmits yellow fever and dengue
fever. Like all other mosquitoes its
eggs will hatch only if placed in
water.
In our efforts to eliminate this
mosquito we must remember that it
deposits its eggs only in artificial or
man made water containers. when
such collections of water are in OF
close to houses. 1t is evident there
fore, that this mosquito is with us
because we cause or allow conditions
to exist IN cur houses or yards that
are favorable to its propagation. In
other words we raise our own supply
of stegoniyia or dengue carrying mos
quitDes.
All this mosquito needs is blood
to drink and water in man made
water containers. We supply both OF
It's requirements.
We must keep in mind the fact
tRat this mosquito is not long dis
lance flyer and seldom leaves the

NUMBER i Of the blazed trails
of the continent, as marked on
the official auto trail maps, is the
Mississippi River Scenic Highway.
1t is fitting that this highway
should be accorded first place, for
it follows the Father of Waters,
and the route Of La Sale, from the
Lakes to the Gulf. If the Lincoln
Highway is Americas Main Street,
this is Americas Broadway.
It leads from Port Arthur; Can

from the snow fields Of the North

The Races

The greatest crowd that ever at
tended Skowhegan Fair saw the
greatest racing that has been seen
in Kennebec Valley for many a day.
The great new grandstand was sold
out before Starter Quinn called the
first race and thousands banked the
track at both ends and repeatedly
broke into cheers or applause as first
one and then another horse drew up
from the bunch and took the lead.
The time was not as fast as Tues
days but the races were better con-
tested and full OF thrills for the on
lockers. making a day of racing long
to be remembered by the great
throng present.
The 2.24 trot went to Helen Witt
but not until Bert Wells had taken
the first heat with Hollywood Viceroy.
Mona c. made the finishes close in
the three opening heats and Holly
=; wood Niceroy came close to nippng
/ the winner in the final encounter.
In the PIG mixed race Don Nc
! Kinney took two straight but the big
I bay trotter Licone was too good in
! the third and Don was second. The
| fourth and final heat was a scOrcher,
, not as to time but in the fact that
i Licone came within an eyelsh of win
| ming.
The 2.16 pace. last but not least

! badly that it will be necessary to run
| the finish today at 1890. DR.. Brooks
