SPEAKER CITES NEED
FOR MODERN MERCHANTS

Business today goes where it is
invited, and stays where it is well
treated, and pay profit to the man or
organization which places service be-
fore profits and keeps constantly in
mind that honest merchandise, fair
prices, intelligent service, and accur-
acy both in promise and accounting
must be exchanged for the customers

tional Retailers association, defined
the responsibilities of the merchants
of today, at the Tracy institute.
In talking on advertising, Mr.. Key
es lauded newspapers as an advertis-
ing medium.
advertising is the fabrication for
the wheels of business and it will
when properly applied, speed up busi-
ness and render customers of a store
real service"
The success of a store depended
more upon the executive in charge
than conditions or outside influences.

ferrous insect
In large numbers of communities
these conditions favorable to mos

to screen the homes, and in many
Instances the cost of screening is
greatly in excess of the cost of re-

In order to bring about the reduc-

towns have adopted the standard

a misdemeanor for any property

to breed on his premises. Copies of
this ordinance may be obtained from

ERADICATION OF MOSQUITOES

The mosquito season is here again
and in some communities the public
may desire to have freedom from
this pest In considering the prob
lem of eradication and control of
mosquitoes, we must fully realize
that we may have several kinds of
mosquitoes in one locality, and that
these different varities may differ
decidedly in customs of life and
travel habits.
Along the seacOast, from Maine to
Texas, we have a mosquito called
"Aades sollicitans" that breeds in
brackish water, and which travels
long distances voluntarily with light
breezes. This species emerges in
large numbers from time to time and
becomes very annoying. Also, in
recent years, with the development
of oil fields and gas wells, inland
sources of salt water under pressure
have been released and the water
has been brought to the surface, and
this former coastal mosquito has es-
tablished itself in several inland
localities where it formerly did not
exist.
There are other species of Aedes
that travel for considerable dis
tances, which originate in tempor-
airy sheets of water and in pools in
wooded areas, and may become nuis-
ances of intermittent nature accord
ing to prevalence of rainfall periods.
The control of these species is of
importance to many communities as
their presence affects property val
ues. The mosquito control work
should be undertaken by the COM
munity, county, or group of counties
affected, as is now being done in
New Jersey, Massachusetts, and
some other states.
In villages, towns, and cities we
have local mosquito nuisance prob
largely responsible. These local
nuisances are caused by a mosquito
known as the "Culex," and in the
Southern States, also by another
known as the "StegOmyia," which is
closely associated with man but re-
produces only in fairly clean water.l
Both of these mosquitoes reproduce
in water containers which we allow
to be so placed as to catch and hold
rain water. The "Culex" also prop
agates in enormous quantities in
dirty water and in collections of
water heavily charged with house
waste, or sewage. Slowly moving
or stagnant water into which house
sewers discharge produce many |
more "Culex" per unit of water sur
face area than clean water. Also, |
when extensive "Culex" breeding
areas of this nature are produced |
by man, we find the "Culex" range
sometimes as far as two miles from
such a prolific source and follow us
into our homes. Especially is this
true where the effluent of a town
septic-tank empties into small
stream near the edge Of the town.
Under this condition sometimes the
water is black with mosquito larvae
for a distance of two or three miles.
It is well for us to keep in mind the
fact that we are very frequently re-
sponsible for the prevalence of this
kind of mosquito, because we allow
water containers to be exposed to
he rains, arid allow polluted water
