The way to keep mosquitoes away this summer is to begin now aqd keep all back lots and dark corners clean by keeoing down the weed* and remov ing old tin cans, buckets and other re ceptacles of water and filth. There were not so many mosquitoes In San ford last summer as in years past. This was probably due to the fact that the town was in better sanitary condition. A rquad from the Lee County Home Guard Company composed of Capt. T. S. Cross, Sergeants P'red P. Strong, W. R. Makepeace, R. H. Deaderck, Corporals T. E. King and Kemp Bald win, and Rev. W. S.

In speaking of the matter a citizen of this place said that he didn’t know where so much money was coming from. Perhaps some of it was hoarded and was benefittlng no one. The people who own this money will not only draw interest on .it, but by buying stamps will do their bit to help conquer the J. W. Stout 3c Company, contractors, now have a large force of workmen constructing cottages at Cumnock, which the coal company is having built for the miners. Several of the buildings are now ready for the roof.
