AS an owner of two English
settlers and a cat. I went
through "the tortureS of the
damned" each summer until I
was told to use moth flakes.
Keep your kitty upstairs or
close him in another room
overnight for 2 or 3 nights
If you think it necessary, give
him a little box of sawdust or
sand. Then get about S pounds
of moth flakes and scatter
very freely in basement; in
clude stairs, under boxes and
behind everything. Flakes
will not stain things. If there
is any furniture in basement,
put some flakes on it. Close
windows and doors and leave
until flakes have evaporated.
This dose got rid of not only
fieaS-but a thousand-legger,
cricket and couple of spiders
crawled out to the center of
the floor to die. Another year,
when we were to be away for
4 or S days, I bought 10 or IL
pounds and did the entire
house. No more fieas, until
the next summer when I did
the same thing over again.

within a day the fleas were
gone forever. However, the

for the project. This is the first

assistance.
If every graduate would con-

ease. These uniforms will cost
