of defending the right of all

Starting Sept. II in Philadel-

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J.-If
you want to keep your home mos

overfeed the fish in your garden
pond.
Experts at the New Jersey Agri-
cultural Experiment Station say
that hungry fish eat mosquito lar
vac, but fish full of packaged food
allow larvae to grow.
The entOmolOgists have issued
these 10 commandments for mos
quito control:
|. Eliminate all standing water.
2. Cover rainbarrels with mos

8. Seal cesspOOls.
4. Drain clogged roof cutters
and fiat roofs.
5. Cut up or remove old tires.

7. Oil sewer inlets, cisterns and

8. Change water in trOughs

weekly.

table powder may be used weekly
during the tick season. A dust con-
tanning 10 per cent is also salts
factory. About two tablespoonfuls
of such dust should be thorough
ly sifted over an average-sized dog
at weekly intervals. The animals
must not be allowed to lick them
selves excessively after treatment
with DDT.
DDT applications against ticks
should not cause any relaxation of
the usual precautions. A nightly
tick inspection is advisable, espe-
cially of the areas at the edges OF
the hair where ticks are most
likely to be found, and under
the arms. Such an inspection is a
reasonably effective safeguard
since the tick does not ordinarily
transmit spotted fever until it has
been attached for five or six hours
If tick is found attached, re-
move at once by means of tweeZ-
ers, if possible. Cauterize the point
of attachment with iodine, or bet
ter, with a solution of carboli(
acid or of silver nitrate.

renee and habits of ticks in Della

Safety Council Notes

Walking on the highway or street
takes place usually in one of three
circumstances, according to the
Delaware Safety Council. A person
walks to cross a street or high
way, or he walks on the highway
or street either with or against
the traffic. In addition there are
temptations which assail many
pedestrians. One is to cross be-
tween intersections. Another is
to cross one way streets at the
wrong time and place. There are
other instances where pedestrians
go deliberately into the highway
{ and dodge cars to try to save time.
i When a man does this he courts
death.
There is supervision available
when crossing the streets in most
cities and pedestrians are helped
either by the addition of an Off
Ger who starts and stops vehicular
traffic so that pedestrians may
cross or else by signal lights. The
o.great. danger at all. crossings. is
not 80 much from the direct traffic
as from that which turns in from
one side or the other. This turning
traffic is the most distracting. A
pedestrian at a strange crossing,
where he doesn't know just how
the traffic will run, ought not to
trust himself in the start until the
turning traffic is out of the way.
Pedestrian and motor vehicle
traffic at crossing guarded by off.
GERS or lights is well regulated ant
takes good care of itself, but su
pervision at small town crossing!
is much more haphazard. In man!
places, safe crossing depends en-
tirely on the discretion of the
walker, but in all cases, really SAT
crossing should depend on, th
courtesy and 'carefulness of motor
ist and pedestrian alike.

Mesh sizes of screens are i'm

have been proved ineffective.
Commercial Standard CS138-47 of

Of these, 16 16 and Is IA are
equal in efficiency in most sec
tiOns. However, greatest protec-
ton is given by IS Is mesh, with
IS strands per inch in each direc-
! ton. This is recommended for
areas where there are many small
! insects.
And mosquito control men sug-
gest you consider the chimney.
It's a favorite skeeter highway
and should be guard with fine
