Whenever the people want to do without some of these , things, whenever the peopl want to deny appropriations to outside pauoers, whenever they want to , quit maintaining a county home, the people themselves can do it, . and thereby reduce taxes. , County Superintendent Marrow was then called on to explain the , $750,000 bond issue for school buildings. He reiterated what he stated before the county commis- < sioners at their meeting here Mon- , day that the amount included ad- ■ vances from the general school ; fund to supplement local bond is- , sues after the county in 1923 , adopted the plan of not allowing districts to issue bonds. This was , done because bonds sell to much better advantage. He explained fur- ( ther that the biggest item of the school budget is the teachers' sal aries, which are fixed according to;, the teachers’ certificates, and :1m i the number of teachers that a i school may have is also fixed by the state.

PREVENT MAGGOTS FROM ATTACKING CURED MEATS By C. H. BRANNON Extension Entomologist Th? cheese skipper tor ham skipper) is ad insect which attacks cured meats, and as the name in dicates. it also attacks cheese. The adult insect is a small fly resembl ing a winged ant, much smaller than the house fly. The maggots produced from these flies attack mostly hams and shoulders which have been cured and smoked. The fresher these are the more rapid the injury. Old pieces of meat which have become hard and dry, sometimes covered with a coating of blue mold and a salve-like layer of fat, seem to be practically im mune from attack. Wry fat meat, such as bacon, is not extensively injured, the insect prefers lean CONTROL. i 1. Prevent adults from entering storage rooms. This may be accom plished by careful screening with 30-mesh wire cloth, and by using care that flies do not enter when the doors are opened. 2. Prevent attack on meats in rooms to which the flies can en ter. The usual method consists of wrapping each piece of meat in paper and enclosing the whole in a tight cloth sack. On farms and in stores a closet or cage with sides of 30-mesh wire cloth should be used for storage of cured meat. On farms such a cage would make wrappings, sack, etc., unnecessary. Smokehouses should be well ; screened. Meats stored in a well screened farm smokehouse should require no furthre protection of any kind. Destroy promptly all infested meat which cannot be recondition ed by trimming. Bones should not be allowed near stores cf smoke i meats. (The skippers breed in bones.) (To kill all stages of the skip per fumigation with Hydrocyanic acid gas gives good results, but RHEUMATISM White in France with the Amer ican Army I obtained a noted French prescription for the treat ment of Rheumatism and Neuritis, I have {riven this to thousands with wonderful results. The pro scription cost me nothing1. I ask nothing for it, I will mail it if you will send me your address. * A : Postal will bring iit. Write todav. RAI L CASE. Dept. F 2S1.
